This year, make a New Year’s resolution that’s fun to keep like improving your golf game. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned player, practicing can help all levels of golfers improve their game. Leave last year’s challenges behind and start fresh with these tips that are sure to bring your score down.

4 Ways to Improve Your Golf Game in 2019

1. Take a Private Lesson

The best golfers are always learning and perfecting their techniques. Get a professional equipment assessment, book a lesson to address a specific weakness, or partner with a fitness trainer on a workout that will improve your swing.

2. Work on Your Short-Game

Improving your short game is the fastest way to lowering your handicap. Fortunately, you can practice short-game techniques, like putting, at home. Small strips of putting green are relatively cheap and can fit almost anywhere in your house.

3. Shape Up

Flexibility is a valuable training tool in your golf fitness regimen, and you should stretch for a few minutes each day. Increased flexibility will improve your balance and range of motion, bringing more power and consistency to your swing.

4. Care for Your Equipment

Proper equipment care will keep your clubs working perfectly and lasting longer. Periodically give your clubs a tuneup by replacing old grips and damaged shafts. Take some time to clean the grooves on your clubheads, too.
