Exciting Golf in Four Hours

Can you really learn how to play exciting golf in a single afternoon? Yes, says Florida golf pro Bob Miller, if you’re willing to accept your own shortcomings and follow a few simple rules. Miller has devised an approach to the game that can lower your handicap and turn golf-course frustrations into excitement and pride.

“The secret,” Miller says, “is knowing how to evaluate your own swing. To know what went wrong and what was right.” A million things can, and probably will, go wrong. You shanked the ball. You topped it. You sliced it and dented the hotdog stand in the parking lot. What now?

Miller outlines his analysis tips on his website (www.bobmillerwrites.com), where he interlaces hands-on golf techniques with inspirational anecdotes and homespun wisdom. Miller said the driving range is one of the worst places a high handicapper can go. “All you’ll do at the range,” Miller says, “is confirm to your body that your goal is to hit the same bad shots during your next golf outing.”

Instead, start at the beginning; know what you’re trying to achieve with each shot. Do the terms “path of hands” and “clubhead angle” mean anything to you? If not, set down your clubs and peruse the diagrams on Miller’s website (this will take roughly half an hour).

Miller’s website provides free, easy-to-digest instruction on how to conquer everything from pull hooks and pushes to fat shots and fades. There’s also a first-tee routine that can help chase away the jitters and improve your technique irrespective of your style of swing. Miller asked, “If I solemnly promise that you can lower your handicap and have fun doing it without going to the practice tee, golf course, or even holding a club in your hand, will you try it?”

Visualization is the key. You can’t adjust your game unless you can see your own game – warts and all – in your mind’s eye. Miller provides common-sense tips on how to do this.

And he stresses that of all the adjustments you can make, the best one might be the simplest: relax. Enjoy the game. To see a golf shot as a life-or-death struggle is to misplace your energy. “All you can and should do,” Miller says, “is set-up to the ball correctly, swing the clubhead at the target, and accept the results.”
