A few nights ago I decided to head down to the club and play a few holes after work.  Normally I finish work at 5:30 PM so I have a few hours of daylight to sneak a few holes in.  This is GREAT because I can play fast since my home course is quiet which allows me to hit a few extra full shots and chips and putts around the greens.  Be sure to do this when YOU play late at night with no one on the course.

These benefits are not the reason for this post though.  I decided that I was getting bored of hitting the same shots and clubs on every hole.  So I decided to do something I did growing up trying to play better golf. This was playing different tee boxes at my home club.  When you play from a different set of tees you hit different clubs off the tee boxes and different shots into the greens.  This adds a new and refreshing element to the game which is what you need to do from time to time.  Not only that it can boost your confidence if your playing from shorter tees then normal!  Now that is one REALLY easy tip to shot lower scores!

Play from all these tee boxes!

Playing the same course and same sets of tee markers will not help you improve as a player.  You have to LEARN how to hit various shots to lower your scores and there is no better way to do this then changing up what sets of tees you play.  This was a tip recommend to me by a Professional at my home club growing up and at a young age I listened to everything he said because he was a really good player.

During my younger years I would play each set of tee markers for one week then switch it up the following week.  If you don’t play as much, be sure to switch every round weather it’s your home course or a new course.  It will help you learn how to hit so many shots in a much quicker period of time.  Especially if you don’t want to put the time in to practicing the game on the driving range.

This simple tip will help you enjoy the game more and learn how to play so many shots you have never seen before.
