When you practice golf on a regular basis, it can be easy to fall into the same dull routine. Feeling stuck does nothing to help your golf game. The following are a few ways to start improving your game again.  Practicing these moves  is sure to better your skills as you get ready for your next big game.  Switch Things Up One of the best things you can do is choose a different target. Many people pick the same target to practice with over and over again. Don’t just aim at the exact same 150 yard stake. When you’re playing a game, you’re normally not focusing on a central target in the middle of the green. Your practice should match the competition. Pick out a variety of targets, and don’t just aim for the second. Opt to incorporate targets on the right and left as well. You don’t need to always use a stake, either. If you’re bored, why not use a distant tree instead?  Pick a Focus Don’t spread yourself too thin by trying to focus on every aspect of the g...

For golfers in Europe and North America, summer provides the perfect season for a great round on the links. The days are longer, and the weather is generally better than it is in other seasons. In some areas of the Northern Hemisphere, it’s important to take the heat into consideration. Excessively warm temperatures can lead to heat exhaustion or even heatstroke. Here are some tips to deal with golfing in the summer heat. Dress for the Weather Wearing heavy clothes in the summer is a bad idea. Heavier clothing tends to hold in heat, and this can lead to excessive fluid loss through unnecessary sweating. Opt for lighter colors, which tend to reflect heat, unlike darker colors that absorb sunlight. Cotton shorts and breathable shirts can moderate some of the effects of the heat. Stay Hydrated Even those who wear comfortable clothes will likely sweat profusely in a hot and humid environment. Therefore, drinking plenty of water during and after a round of golf is important to ...

Now that the weather is improving and the days are getting longer, it’s time to  get your car ready for the spring . Here are some tips that will help you make sure that you and your car are ready for the upcoming season. Wash Your Car Your car picks up a lot of grime and road salt during the winter. Not only does this look unsightly, but it can actually corrode your vehicle and ruin your paint job.
