Precipitation happens, and if you’re going to book a tee time at any golf course in Palm Desert, you’re not going to let a little bit of the wet stuff stop you from getting your round in. Now, if it’s a torrential downpour we’re talking about, you may want to skip the links then, but if it’s just a shower, there’s no reason you can’t […]
Being a club member at a private golf course definitely has a lot of advantages. However, there are just as many people who can’t afford it as there are ones who wouldn’t be able to golf often enough to make it worth it. You will find that often the members at private clubs are retired, and we can certainly see the appeal in golfing multiple […]
Being confident in your abilities goes a long way in the game of golf, and a lot of skill development goes into having that type of confidence in your game. There’s a lot to be said for believing your abilities and consistency with them will likely lead you to outperform your competitors. Some say it is even best to be cocky and confident and that […]
Not all golf bags are created the same, and like most products you tend to get what you pay for. Bags have come a long way over the decades in the same way clubs and other performance golf gear has. If you’re going to walk the course there’s always a lot to be said for that, and you’re going to enjoy the experience in a […]
Footwork plays a role in performance with all sports, and golf is no exception. While there may be course grass under a golfer’s feet the same way there is for a football or field lacrosse player, no golfer is going to running a post route and planting their foot in the grass hard after sprinting 15 yards downfield. Nonetheless, the function of your feet in […]
There’s 24 hours in a day, and if you’re like most people you probably spend 7 or so of them asleep. When you’re lying down there’s nothing under your feet, and that’s a darn good thing. But the rest of the time there is something beneath your feet, and you’re probably in footwear of some sort. Hopefully a good portion of that time is spent […]
Here we are in October, and for some people it might seem odd to be blogging on new golf gear trends when for most parts of the country there’s going to be fewer people on the links from here on out. But you need to remember that Palm Desert is a Coachella Valley golf course, and for us the golf season doesn’t begin at the […]
Everyone who golfs will have been told to ‘let the club do the work’ when learning to how to swing a golf club properly, and for most of us that learning occurred a long time ago. But a capable golfer doesn’t just happen, and we need to remember that everyone is going to be at a different point in their golf discovery journey. Sure, the […]
Not everyone is blessed with being tall in stature, and on the flip side of that many people who are really tall wish they weren’t. But one thing about being tall is you tend to have longer appendages, and if you’re a golfer or play anything else where a club or a stick are involved then having long arms are a plus. We can assume […]
Here we are just before Christmas in December and it’s expected to be 55 degrees in Palm Desert this weekend. One of the things that Riverside County always has going for it is the warm weather, although that’s true of all of SoCal. This is comfortable golfing weather and if you want to golf in Palm Desert now is as good a time as any […]
