I see things written about the golf swing that I can't believe will work except by accident .
A good putter is a match for anyone. A bad putter is a match for no one.
Make a game out of practice, you're still a child at heart
A golfer rarely needs to hit a spectacular shot until the one that preceded it was pretty bad.
Lessons are not to take the place of practice, but to make practice worthwhile.
A pretty girl will always have the toughest time learning to play golf, because every man wants to give her lessons.
In my opinion, no young player can develop his or her game to its highest potential if he or she rides around the course in a golf cart.
Be brave if you lose and meek if you win.
If you play poorly one day, forget it. If you play poorly the next time out, review your fundamentals of grip, stance, aim and ball position. Most mistakes are made before the club is swung. If you play poorly for a third time in a row, go see your professional.
You don't lose your swing between the ninth green and the tenth tee, and you don't lose your swing from one day to the next. If you think you do, something is going on that you don't understand. A diary might help explain it to you.
No matter how poorly you play, there is always someone you can beat. No matter how well you play, there is always someone who can beat you.
Looking up is the biggest alibi ever invented to explain a terrible shot. By the time you look up, you've already made the mistake.
Golf has probably kept more people sane than psychiatrists have.
All seasoned players know, or at least have felt, that when you are playing your best, you are much the same as in a state of meditation. You are free of tension and chatter. You are concentrating on one thing. It is the ideal condition for good golf.
