I am by no means, a golfer. I have played once in my lifetime, not including mini golf. On my first hole I birdied and it was all downhill from there. I have a terrible golf swing and very little patience for the game. I think that I would probably enjoy it if I was somewhat better at the game.
I was checking out the perfect golf swing dot com and started reading the FAQ section. Slicing the ball seems to be one of my big problems. Luckily there was a question about it and an answer.
“Question: Why do I slice and periodically hook the golf ball?
Answer: The left hand is probably turned to far to the right or the left when gripping the golf club.”
Sounds pretty simple but there is a lot of science behind the perfect golf swing. The program was developed by Physical Therapist, Jim Clark. Before Jim developed the Perfect Golf Swing program he developed a state-of-the-art rehabilitation program for Stroke and Spastic Cerebral Palsy patients. Jim studied the patterns and motions of the professional golfers and coupled that with his extensive knowledge of the brain, muscles and joints to create the perfect golf swing.
I’d like to learn how to move my body in the precise motions in order to hit the golf ball and make it go where I want it to go. Maybe then I might start appreciating the game more.

I am not a good golfer. I’ve been golfing on two occasions; both were with my future brother-in-laws. These guys are good golfers. I am a terrible golfer. But I haven’t really given the sport a shot and I haven’t had the proper training.
I imagine if I took some lessons and learned more about being a better golfer than I would enjoy the sport more. I came across this article about Golf Fitness Vacations. Basically you go on a vacation to a very nice resort in some beautiful areas. You learn better mechanics for the game of golf and how to improve your golf fitness. Here is a quote about Golf Fitness Vacations
– All the Golf Fitness Vacation schools utilize patented technology to analyze the body mechanics of each individual golf swing. “The 3R Training Approach puts advanced technology in the hands of our expert Golf Academy instructors,” said David Ostrow, physical therapist and owner of Body Balance for Performance. “This Golf Vacation is designed to help you become more consistent, gain distance, and play pain free — all while on vacation.”
If I could learn to hit the ball straighter, further and more consistently all while I was on vacation I would be pretty excited about golfing. I would really like to be able to enjoy this game and I think that by learning more about it and getting some expert training I would be well on my way to being a fan of golf.
