OB Some advice from Ireland where it is always windy: 1) Play the longest club possible - This keeps spin down 2) Keep your chest on top of shot to keep it low 3) Never hit a short iron 100% - Aim for 75% max 4) Don't get too handsy - Good pivot is key - Its easy too get way too much handsy in wind 5) Weight on left to keep ball down 6) Remember your acquired motion 7) Keep patient! __________________ Reverse every natural instinct and do the opposite of what you are inclined to do, and you will probably come very close to having a perfect golf swing.
