“What to do with your equipment in the winter”
The off season is here so now what do I do? Time to get your clubs out and get to work! This is the best time of year to break down your golf game and improve it for next season.
Plan to improve your game – How was your golf season this year? Did you reach your goals? Is there anything that you’d like to improve? Do you have a plan? This would be the time to reflect and do something about it. I would suggest going through a GPC 5 Elements of Success Evaluation along with a Coach Guided Assessment to see what you actually need to improve both on the physical and golf side. “Whichever can be measured, can be improved.” The 5 Elements of Success Evaluation and the Coach Guided Assessment give you a baseline on what you are currently doing and what can be improved. What are some goals you’d like to achieve? Make more putts inside 10 feet, drop the handicap a couple of points, or hit more fairways are some examples. The winter and offseason months can be a good time to gain some club head speed, work on the mobility and stability on the physical side, and improve on the weaknesses while also maintaining your strengths on the golf side.
Examples of a week – 1 hour a day of dedicated practice can lead to some major differences. Incremental gains!
Equipment Upgrades – This can also be a good time to tinker with your equipment! Are there clubs that need to perform better? What should I keep? Was there a club that did not perform as well as you would have liked? Is there a yardage gap you noticed while playing? 190 to 210 yards? Testing out driving irons, hybrids or a 7 wood can be an option. Do you need new wedges for the upcoming season? Or do you need a different bounce on the wedge? Luckily this winter, Custom Clubs is having a weekly auction for discounted equipment. The clubs can be anywhere from drivers, woods, hybrids, wedges and a putter. Check it out!
Make the time to reflect on your golf game this past year and let us know when you’d like to get started!
