Send us a textAs in all areas of life, golf, in particular, is a sport where confidence plays a very important part.

Send us a textDavies Love III perfectly summarised the truth when he said, "..a routine isn't a routine if you have to think about it".Every professional golfer on whichever tour they play knows that regardless of the shot, they will go through a pre-shot routine. The benefits are pretty well-known. For some, it is very mechanical; for others, it is a bit ritualistic; and for some, it looks like modern dance. But the one thing they all benefit from is that it settles them into a thought-free ...
Send us a textThis year, we have seen two world-class players falter down the stretch and lose events due exclusively to missing clutch putts.

There is no one thing we need to do any more, and there is one Secret to success. What there are, I believe, principles we can apply. In today's short podcast, Robin addresses what ...
Send us a textThere is an old saying, "Practice makes perfect." If only that were true, but practice always results in improvement and gains. A game of golf is complex enough without introducing more practice protocols—allegedly to help us improve. Once the basic mechanics have been mastered, golf is a mental game. Yet, no one practices that mental gate because they do not believe it is possible; it can only be learned through real-world experience. We should practice many areas of the ...

Send us a texthttps://www.siegergolf.com/offers/BaAEYBog/checkoutOver the last 40 years, I have had many interesting conversations with friends and others about golf. Some of the questions that arise are somewhat earnest and serious about the state of the game, but more often than not, they are random, frivolous, downright silly and then, of course, there are the perennial old favourites that you're asked regularly by other golfers.

Send us a textThis week we review the US Open golf championship. It will be talk about for a long time for the right and wrong reasons one suspects. Sensational finish by the champion on the final hole with a death glory shot. Whilst favourite player struggled with his putter and missed two short putts, which one hopes does not become his defining moment.
