Golf Tips for Seniors

Play From The Correct Tees

Moving to senior tees can be a tough move for every golfer as it implies your game is weakening. It’s not, you are just getting older.

Playing fold from the senior tees is not at all cheating or demeaning.  This is what makes the game fair.

Don’t put an age or time frame on this decision, just base it on how far you are hitting the ball. or – perhaps more importantly – how much you are enjoying your golf.

Every golfer wants to maintain their handicap and enjoy golf. Moving up a tee provides a simple solution.

Keep A True And Honest Handicap

Last but not least on our list of golf tips for seniors is keeping a true and honest handicap. In fact, this is a tip that does not only apply to senior golfers; it applies to all golfers.

The only correct way to know if you are getting better or worse at the game of golf is if you keep an honest score.

Miss a short putt, count it. Flub a chip shot, count it. The first drive out of bounds, count it.

If you don’t count these, you will shoot a terrible 88 one day and an incredible 86 the next, but the scores won’t give you the real story.

Although high golf scores are ugly, they can tell you a lot about your game and what you need to work on to improve. Be honest on the golf course, and only good things will happen for your golf game.
