As a senior golfer myself and having helped other senior golfers, I can tell you that getting older doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice a lot of distance off the tee.
There are so many golfers mistakenly believe that when you get older you lose your power, speed, and your distance. Sure you are not going to drive the ball like you did at 25, but the decrease can be minimal, with the right approach.
So that leaves us with, what can the senior golfer do to increase their distance and improve their game?
Number one is fitness. All of us should improve our strength and flexibility. We can do this at home or we can go to a gym or health club. No you don’t need to start bench pressing 500 pounds or doing 500 pushups. You just need a moderate but consistent program.
You just need to do some light fitness training and build some extra strength and power. In the Body Golf Executive Fitness for Golfers, there are many simple exercises or you can go to your local fitness club and a fitness trainer will help you get started. Yoga is another great type of exercise, that provides stretching and improves flexibility. You should talk to your doctor before starting any exercise program and do not overdo it in the beginning.
Have the right golf equipment is also necessary to get the most out of your game. Having your clubs custom fitted and getting the right flex in your golf shaft is very important.
Getting the proper training is very important, and this would be an excellent time to start. Such DVD’s as the Body Golf Full Swing or The Body Golf Seniors Advantage are excellent lessons for the right golf swing and mechanics that will lead to more yards off the tee.
Just because you’re getting older doesn’t mean you still can’t hit the ball with the same distance as when you were younger. With good training and a proper fitness program, you can expect to hit the ball farther than you ever have before! And I know this is true, because I have seen it time after time.
