How To Slash 8 – 13 Shots Off Your Next Game And…How To Keep Doing It Consistently
Suggestion #2
For every shot you should rate what you’re trying to do as an A, B or C rating. And here is what each one of those means:
A = Aggressive
B = Be Conservative
C = Caution (or Cautious)
An example of an A shot would be if you’ve hit a great drive down a long par 4 and you’re in the middle of the fairway with a great lie. You’re 190 yards from the pin and that’s the perfect distance for a solid 4 wood for you. There’s a big bunker in the front of the green but you have a lot of confidence in your 4 wood and you’re confident that you’re going to hit a good shot over the bunker. So that’s a situation where you would choose the A (aggressive) option.
An example of choosing a B shot in that same situation may be hitting a 6 iron so your ball ends up in the fairway with a simple pitch over the bunker to the pin. But here’s a clearer example where most golfers should choose a B shot.
Let’s say you’re playing a short par 5, which is playing downwind, and you’ve hit a terrific drive straight down the middle of the fairway. You have a good lie and there’s 220 yards to get your ball to the pin. But there is a small lake in front of the green that you need to carry. And to carry this lake you need to hit the shot 200 yards in the air. You have a 3 wood that could do this but it’s at the very limit of how far you can hit the ball with that club. If you miss-hit the shot slightly it will probably end up in the lake.
So a B shot would be to figure out a distance you’d like to be pitching from. You decide you’d like to pitch from 80 yards as that is a distance you’re confident from. So to do that you’d have to hit a shot 140 yards. For you that’s a solid 7 iron.
See, that’s smart thinking golf and it’s those sort of decisions that will help to slash shots from your score.
Now here is an example of a C shot.
You’ve sliced a shot deep into some trees on the right of the fairway. You get to your ball and amazingly you can have a full swing. You’re 160 yards from a small green that is surrounded by deep bunkers. As you’re assessing your shot options you notice a small opening in the trees that would be about the perfect for a 6 iron shot. That is the perfect distance for your 6 iron but you decide it’s too risky.
You then try and find a way that you can get the ball to finish just in front of the green….before the bunkers. To do this however you’d have to hit a low punch shot and make sure the ball travels the correct height. Because if it goes too high the trees will catch it, and if it goes too low the rough will stop it and you’ll still be in the trees. So even though that’s a B option you think it’s still too risky.
Now the C option (remember, C stands for caution) is to chip the ball out to the fairway and have a shot of about 140 yards. You’re confident you can get that 3rd shot on the green so that’s the smartest play and one that will greatly reduce your chance of a big number.
So there you go. That’s the A, B, C rating that you should use before each shot you play.

13 Best Drills To Improve Your Chipping, Pitching and Bunker Shots
Drill #4 – Wrist Firm (Part 2)
Here’s a “great” drill that will teach you the correct wrist and arm action needed for great chipping. Simply setup to a chip shot as normal, as I’m pictured doing below, and then take off your top hand and put it on the back of your bottom hand.
Now from this “strange” setup position I want you to simply swing back and through.
What you’ll find from doing this drill is that your right wrist is forced to keep the angle that is created and this will lead your hands through the stroke. This should be happening when chipping, because you never want the clubhead to overtake your hands when chipping.
Keep doing this drill over and over again to ingrain this feel and to make it a habit. You’ll feel so different when chipping after doing this drill and your confidence will rise accordingly. You’ll love this drill and the results it gives you, trust me!

10 best Drills To Longer Drives
Power Drill/Exercise #8
Here’s a great drill that will teach you to swing the fastest at the bottom of your swing. And to do this drill, simply set up to an imaginary ball as you normally would and then swing back at 10% of your normal pace. Then start your downswing at 10% of your normal pace but when you get to about 2 feet away from where a ball would be I want you to swing as fast as you possibly can.
Then start your downswing at 10% of your normal pace but when you get to about 2 feet away from where a ball would be I want you to swing as fast as you possibly can.
When doing this I want you to feel that the club hits you on the back at the end of your swing. Swing through as hard and as fast as you possibly can. Do about 25 swings like this for 30 days and you won’t believe the difference in the distance you get from your shots.

The Problems And Solutions Manual
This manual is the result of me answering questions golfers sent to me. Initially when I created and sold this product it was off-line. I sent golfers 30 new problems and solutions every month for a yearly subscription cost of $97. There is over 400 golf problems and solutions in this manual and here is just one question and answer, as a sample for you…
Problem – My handicap is creeping out and I think this is getting to me. I also feel I read about the theory too much and get bogged down. What can I do?
Solution – It seems to me that you’re trying too hard. Golf is a game and as such it’s meant to be enjoyed, and I know the next question, “how can I enjoy it when I try so hard and I just get worse?”
You know I got caught in the same trap as you. ‘Trying’ so hard and not getting any better. Hitting great shots on the practice fairway but on the course, what a joke! And I eventually figured out the reason why this was happening.
Pressure. I put so much pressure on myself to make a score than I caused tension. I would criticize myself if a golf shot would not end up to my high expectations. I have now learned that having high expectations is good but the feeling of failure is not good.
I’ve learned that making mistakes is highly valuable because of what we can learn, but I’ve also learned that the feeling of failure does us no good whatsoever.
So what’s the solution?
Well the solution is to pick targets for each and every shot you play and then have an easy success rule like “if I hit the ball I’m a success.” Doesn’t hitting the ball ultimately decide whether a shot is a success or not? Isn’t that what golf is about, hitting a ball?
You see I now believe that every shot ends up on a scale with ultimate success being that your ball finishes up exactly where you intended it, to the other extreme where the ball just moves. And as your ball gets closer to the final target the more successful the shot is.
But you see, that’s a world away from the thinking I used to have. It was all or nothing. Success or Failure. And that’s just plain dumb. Golf is a game of mistakes. The best golfers in the world say they only hit about 7 shots exactly how they intend during a game. If that’s the case imagine if they felt as if they failed on the 63 or so other shots?
You see golf is only a game and as such you make the rules that govern your feelings. You can feel like a success after any shot, so why not feel like a bit of a success after every shot? That is, if you move the ball.
So this is my recommendation to you. Forget about your score for a few rounds and simply choose where you want your ball to finish and have the rule that “if I hit the ball I’m a success,” or “if I move my ball forward I’m a success.” Try this for a few rounds and you will notice a huge increase in your enjoyment and after all, that’s what golf is all about.

Fix Your Slice In 5 Days
Day 3
Today you’ve got another really simple drill. All you have to do is simply hit shots with your feet together. Now the reason you’re doing this drill is to further teach you how to release your hands, because if you don’t release your hands while your body is aligned to the right your shots will go straight right or they may even start to the right and slice. And we don’t want that, do we??
I didn’t think so!
To avoid this, we must retrain your golfing muscles to release the clubhead through the ball. The previous days drill is great in helping you to start to learn this but today’s drill will help speed up the process even more. To do today’s drill simply place your feet together and do half swings.
When doing this drill try to hook each shot by rolling your hands over excessively.
Remember, exaggeration will speed up the progress. And if you can’t hit any balls today simply do this drill at home without a ball. Let’s now keep the momentum going by doing another easy drill. So go to Day 4 now.

Soon to be ex-golf coach 
It’s with a bit of sadness coupled with excitement that I’m writing you this blog post.
You see, I have been a golf coach for the past 11 years. But for a while now I’ve been feeling like I should be moving onto other projects.
So I have made the tough decision to retire from being a golf coach.
Over the past 11 years I’ve helped thousands of people to improve their golf games and I’m extremely grateful for that chance. To mark the closing of this chapter in my life and to thank you all for giving me the opportunity to help you I am going to hold one final, BIG special on all of my products before I take them off the market. For this special I am going to group all of my products together so you can get them all at once for a stupidly low price.
I still have yet to put this package together, which will take a bit of time so it should be ready to go in September. In the meantime I’m going to be sending you great samples from all of the products which hopefully should help you to improve your golf game.
So here is the first blog post in this series. And the first product I’m going to give you a sample from is…The Draw System.
I designed this product to help people fix their slice problem. And this system has successfully helped thousands of people from all around the world to do this. Here is a sample from this system…
I’ve said this a number of times, but it’s so important that I’ll say it again: your backswing plane should be more upright than your downswing plane.
Unfortunately most golfers swing plane is the exact opposite of this and that’s called swinging over the top.
Maybe you’ve heard of it 
!
Swinging over the top is one of the biggest causes of the ball starting to the left and generally resulting in a slice or a pull.
Now, we’ve started to cure this over the top problem by me giving you the upright backswing drill (see Day 9). But now we need to work on flattening your downswing plane. But before I give you a drill that will help you to do that I have a word of warning.
The drill that I’m going to give you today is going to feel so strange that you may not want to do it. But please do because the strange feeling you get from doing this drill is a good thing as it’s the total opposite of what you have probably been doing for your entire golf career thus far.
Plus the results of repeatedly doing today’s drill are well worth any temporary feeling of uncomfortableness.
And like the upright backswing drill I gave you on Day 9 I’m also going to get you to do today’s drill every day from now on. Plus, like the drill on Day 9 I don’t want you to try and do what I’m suggesting in this drill when you’re just swinging normally.
The purpose of this drill is simply to give you the feeling of swinging flatter on the downswing than you’re swinging back. So I want you to do this drill everyday from now on (for only 5 minutes, apart from today) and then when you’re swinging normally just do so without thinking of anything mechanical, like the plane of your swing.
Now before I show you the exercise that will help you to fix an over the top problem for good I want to first explain why most golfers swing over the top, and second I want to show you what you should be trying to achieve when you swing.
So first, the reason most golfers do this disastrous over the top move is because for some reason they swing back on a too flat plane. And then what happens from such a position is the club naturally does the opposite on the downswing, which is to come down too steep…
Now what you should be trying to do when swinging a golf club is to swing the club back so the shaft is slightly more upright than the original shaft plane line at the halfway point in your backswing.
Then on the downswing you want the clubshaft to be close to being along the same parallel lines as the original shaft line at this halfway point in the downswing. Also the club should be slightly above and outside the original shaft line as is shown in the pictures below.
So hopefully this has given you a clear idea as to what you should be trying to do in your swing as far as the swing plane is concerned. And it’s very important that you have this clear understanding. With that, here is today’s task…
OK, to fix an over the top swing you are going to have to practice and practice the exact opposite of what you’ve been doing for such a long time. And when you practice this you’ll have to really exaggerate the exact opposite to such an extreme that it will feel very silly. But only by doing this will you really fix the problem once and for all. And if you don’t feel strange when you’re doing this exercise then you’re not exaggerating it enough.
So grab a club and do the following.
Setup to an imaginary ball and then start your swing back normally in a one-piece movement for about the first foot or so of your backswing. But from then on move the shaft of the club on a very, very exaggerated upright plane as the pictures below clearly demonstrate and then continue to the top of your backswing.
After completing your backswing I then want you to feel as though the club is doing a big loop and coming way down behind you on a very flat plane as the pictures below also clearly demonstrate.
And then swing through but when you do so you should feel as though the club is going out to the right and then follow-through.
Again, doing this drill will feel very, very strange indeed. But remember, that’s good. And you should do this very, very exaggerated loop swing everyday until the end of this system and beyond. In fact, I suggest you do this exercise for at least 30 days.
Then after this 30 day period you should have a slightly upright swing plane on the backswing and a flatter swing plane on the downswing which will result in consistent powerful draws.
Finally, I want to explain that when you’re doing this drill you must feel like you are swinging very much from the inside and then out to the right.
Doing these things will feel very unnatural at first but with practice they’ll become a habit and you’ll improve your ability to hit consistent draws dramatically.
So here’s a summary of what you should do today….
* Practice this loop drill for at least 15 minutes today
* Upright backswing drill for at least 5 minutes (see Day 9)
* A few minutes of some relaxed swings with your exaggerated setup (see Day 5) without worrying about doing anything mechanical.
OK, that’s it for today, I’ll see you back here tomorrow.

That’s a small sample from The Draw System that has helped thousands of golfers to fix a slice. It has been sold for $78.95 and here are a couple of people that have completed it talking about it…
“Before I started your “Draw” System I had a slice. Since following your day by day instructions, I now hit the fairway much more often with a slight fade or draw when I get it right! As a result I have gone from hitting 220-230 yards to hitting 250-280 yards.
I found the instructions easy to follow. It brought me along at the right speed in learning the system correctly without rushing. The step by step system I found left you excited to want to learn that step so you could move on to the next.
It has improved my distance off the tee (a good 50 yards +) and helped me with my swing more importantly. Which has improved my whole game and as a result I hit straighter with more consistency. It has taken me to a new level in my golf game.
It was easy to follow learning at your own speed. It was almost like having a golf pro right there with you. Anytime you can improve at something you can always enjoy it better, especially when you see yourself improving from day to day. I am and would recommend this system to everyone who wants to improve their game.”
Wayne Hiro Shigaki
Connecticut, USA
“After following this system I am hitting the ball more solidly and have learnt not to ‘overhit’ attempting to get that extra ‘meter.’ The biggest benefit The “Draw” System has done is to give me a more consistent strike of the ball – I actually had a 100 meter wedge back-spin to the hole today.
Also this system has eliminated a tendency for my drives to fade/slice and I have seen videos that were basically aiming at the same objective but didn’t provide the clear steps to work through like your system does.”
Alan Jones
New South Wales, Australia
“I know your a busy man so I’ll keep this short. If I ever meet you in person I’ll KISS you!!!!! You have saved my golf game. I’ve been playing for 2 years and in the beginning I found it very easy. In less than 9 months I was a 14 and it was looking like it was going to continue to go down. Then I hit a wall, that little ball started to go right, and then it went further right, then even further right….. I was losing massive distance as well, 3 clubs. I fought with it for ages.
Well I’m now 4 months into my new swing and I shot a 77 yesterday. You absolute beauty!!!! 15 of 18 greens, what a game!!!!! Your mental course is magnificent, coupled with the draw system I can now play golf on a level I never thought possible.”
John Shields

OK, that’s a sample from the first product. Here now is a sample from another product called: 5 Secrets To Maximum Distance
Secret #3
The sequencing of the swing has an awful lot to do with the potential power in which you can hit the golf ball. Unfortunately it’s outside the scope of this book to cover the sequencing of the entire swing but here’s something critical that you need to know and implement to help get maximum distance into your shots.
When you reach the top of your swing the very first part of your body that should start the downswing should be your left knee.
To start your downswing you want your left knee to start moving towards the target. By doing this you’ll automatically start the correct sequencing of the rest of your body during the downswing.
Doing this one little move will have a profound affect on the distance of your shots. Try it, you’ll see.

All right, now I’m going to give you a sample from my: How To Hit A Driver ebook
The Setup And Swing
When you swing a driver you’ll naturally have a more rounded swing. This is simply because the driver is much longer than any other club and this naturally produces a more rounded action.
You should not fight this natural tendency. You’ve got to let the driver do it’s job. Don’t force a driver to be something it’s not. It’s going to swing more around you so go with it.
Now before we get into some nitty gritty here are some general things you can implement into your driving game to hit the ball better and further off the tee.
1. Before you take some full swings with a driver you should always warm up by doing some stretches. The golf swing is incredibly hard on the body and you’ll only do yourself damage by trying to swing a driver hard without warming up your muscles first.
2. If you tend to fight a slice with a driver you should tee the ball higher as this helps to promote a draw. Conversely if your problem shot with a driver is a hook you should tee the ball lower.
3. When you’re teeing up to hit a driver you need to take into account the shape of shot you’ve been hitting with the driver and then tee the ball up on the best side of the tee to allow for that shape.
For example, if you’ve been fading your driver (and other shots) and you’re faced with a long par 4 that doglegs to the left then you’re going to be in trouble if you leave your ball on the left of the fairway. So to give yourself the best chance of success you should tee the ball up on the side you most want to avoid. And in this case you don’t want to go left as you’ll be forced to hit a draw for your second shot and that’s not a shot you’re hitting well.
So with this in mind in this example you should tee the ball up on the left-hand side of the tee box so you’re aiming away from the left-hand side, and you should aim right down the middle of the fairway. That way if you hit the ball straight you’ll be in the middle of the fairway. If you hit a fade you’ll be in the right hand side of the fairway and if you hit a little slice you’ll be in the right rough still with a good shot to the green.
You see, you’ve got to be smart when you’re teeing up your ball. And here’s a general rule to remember to help you do this…always tee up your ball as the same side as the trouble and aim away from it.
4. Now naturally you need a mental and physical routine when you’re setting up to hit a drive. That’s a given…and I cover how to create one of these in a lot of my other resources. But there’s one critical thing you absolutely must do when you’re driving…and that’s pick out an intermediate target when you setup for a shot.
Why?
Because it’s much easier to aim your club at something that is a few feet in front of you than a target that is 250 yards away from you.
Makes sense right?
So if you’re not doing it, start doing it. Pick out something just in front of your ball that is on a direct line to your target and line your driver up to that.
And that brings me to the next important point.
