Beginning Golfers - How To Lower Your Scores Fast

The question that we get the most beginning golfers as well as low-handicapped golfers is “How can I lower my scores the fastest?” If we hear it once a day we hear it a thousand times a day. The answer is very simple. Improve your short game.

Opposed to popular belief and actions, whether you want to learn how to play the game of golf as a beginning golfer or if you have played for a long time and want to lower your handicap, learn how to chip and putt. It may not seem as macho or as sexy to learn all of these little short shots as opposed to standing on the driving range banging out long shots. No matter what your current handicap is, if you want to lower your golf scores learn all aspects of the short game. This will drop your scores faster than standing on a driving range for a long period of time week after week.

Here is a question that may put how important the short game is and can help put it into perspective for you. Once your round is finished, do you want to give your buddy a hard time about the one drive you hit past him/her or do you want to brag about the lower score that you shot? Speaking from experience, the ribbing about how your buddy hit one past you is pretty short-lived as he is paying you for winning the bet of lowest score.

One last thought about the short game for you is to make sure you arrive early enough to spend some time on the putting green putting and chipping before your round. You do not need to spend thirty minutes there. You just need to hit enough putts and chip shots to get a good feeling going prior to your round. This is important for beginning golfers as well as low-handicap golfers.
