“When it’s breezy, swing easy.” You’ve heard this before, but what has made this one hold up for so long? Two reasons, really:
- Smooth swings increase the likelihood that solid contact will be made, creating a penetrating ball flight.
- If you make solid contact swinging hard, more backspin is created and the ball is likely to balloon up. Less spin = more penetrating ball flight.
Discipline yourself to take an extra club or two and to swing easy and you’ll have a lot more putts for birdie than your playing partners.
