<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Tonight Rob Myers, PGA is here to talk about intermediate targets...</i></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;">This evening I'm going to spend some time talking about alignment, in particular finding intermediate targets. For those of you who are not familar with using intermediate targets this will no doubt improve your alignment. You will find after reading the following few paragraphs that intermediate targets can be used for better alignment on all of your shots from the full swing, to chipping, and even on the putting green.</span><br style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;">The first step to finding an intermediate target is getting behind the golf ball so that the ball is directly between you and your intended target. Next draw an imaginary line from your intended target back to yourself disecting the golf ball on the way. Once you have that imaginary line, pick out something on the ground just in front of the ball ( 6 inches - 6 feet, normally the closer the better) that your imaginary line intersects as well. That "something" that you pick out on the ground could be a broken tee, a leaf, a discoloration in the grass, or even an old divot. You will call this spot that you have chosen on the ground your intermediate target. When you address the golf ball you want to line the club face up with the intermediate target that you have chosen and this will help you to get properly aligned to the target. You will find it much easier to line up to a target that is within several inches or a couple of feet of the golf ball rather than something that is a couple hundred yards away. </span><br style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; line-height: 21px;">Next time you are on the driving range try practicing with an intermediate target and see how much easier it will be to get properly aligned to your intended target. The margin for error on getting aligned to something that is closer to you is significantly less than trying to get lined up to something that is far distance from you. As always, good luck and let me know if you have any questions! Make it a great day!</span> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">As a golfer it can be a real downer to hear the phrase, "we're on the mats today". We all know that practicing your golf game off of artificial mats is no where near the real experience you receive practicing off the grass. One of the reasons that we do hit off the mats is because the range can honestly not handle the traffic that it takes on a daily basis. A simple way that we as golfers can fix this is trying to follow a divot pattern on the range. We at SilverHorn found<i> <a href="http://www.usga.org/course_care/regional_updates/regional_reports/midcontinent/Practice-Like-A-Pro---July-2011/" target="_blank">this article from the USGA</a></i> so very helpful to explain what it means to follow a divot pattern on the driving range. If you have a moment check out this article and pass it on to fellow golfers who you know practice on the driving range. Let's all do our part to keep the driving range and real grass in the best possible condition that we can. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Many golfers dread the phrase, "today we are cart path only". It can be an inconvenience in what was to be a relaxing day on the golf course. The fact of the matter is that the cart path only rule is put into effective after careful evaluation of our superintendent on the current condition of the golf course. Cart path only is a measure taken to protect the golf course and keep it in pristine playing condition. Recently a cart path question was asked in the <a href="http://www.usga.org/Course.aspx?id=7800#show=4397eb00-e55a-428b-844c-b378f9ba40aa" target="_blank">USGA</a> newsletter and we think their answer is very helpful in understanding cart path only so we are going to re-post it here for you today: </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: -webkit-left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><strong>Q:</strong> For some reason, our golf course staff does not want golf carts to be used on our hybrid bermudagrass fairways during January, February, and March. I know of no other golf course in our part of the world that has this guide, and a large majority of our golfers disagree with it. What do you say?</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><strong>A:</strong> This is a case where the maintenance standards of the golf course have placed a premium on having the best possible hybrid bermudagrass fairways in the winter and spring. As a result, your course has decided appropriately to restrict carts to the path during January, February, and March. On the other side of the coin, we receive calls or emails during March from golfers who complain "there's no grass on the fairways." This happens because carts beat down the dormant bermudagrass. Our position is that as long as the course officials know the facts, they are free to decide what's best for them.</i></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112277450647461374.post-61371372869390690702012-07-11T05:27:00.000-07:002012-07-11T05:27:12.845-07:00Flop Shots- Golf Tips From Rob Myers, PGA<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Today, I am going to talk about the challenging, yet fun shot that is commonly known as the flop shot. We have all seen the guys on TV execute this shot to perfection all the while making it look easy! For those of you who have rushed out and tried to duplicate this shot at your local range or course you have probably found that it's not as easy as it looks. Before we get into the details let me first define the flop shot. A flop shot can best be described as a greenside shot that is designed to fly higher than your normal chip or pitch and land on the green softly. This type of shot requires an enormous amount of touch and feel as well as the proper fundamentals.</span><br style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The key to hitting a successful flop shot is to make sure you have the proper setup. So with that being said, lets first start with the proper setup to perform a flop shot. Grab your highest lofted wedge (sand or lob) and begin by addressing the ball as you normally would for a standard chip shot. The first adjustment you will make is to move the ball from the middle or back third of your stance to the front third. Next you will pull your front foot back so that your stance is open. You should now feel as though you are aiming left (for right handers) of the target. In order to make up for being aligned left, you will lay the club face open so that the leading edge of the club is pointed at the target. This adjustment has added loft to the club while still keeping your club pointed towards the target. At this point you are now setup properly for this shot and ready to give it a try. You will make an effort to swing the club along your foot line which will have the club moving from what feels like the "outside in" or "across" the ball. By moving the club this way you are able to put fade spin on the ball which helps it to land softer on the green. Notice that the bulk of these adjustments were made in your setup, so as you get more comfortable with this new setup you should start to see some better flop shot results.</span><br style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: #f9ffe8; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">It is my strong recommendation that you try this shot for the first time on the driving range where a poor result will not end up jeopordizing anybodys physical well being. Once you gain some confidence in your ability to perform this shot successfully than you can try it around the green where there are other people practicing. Please let me know if you have any questions as you practice, and I look forward to hearing your feedback! Make it a great day!</span>

<div style="line-height: 1.4; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 1.4;">I often run into people having difficulty putting due to the inconsistency in the length of their putting stroke. Many amateurs have a tendency to take the putter too far back on the backstroke and then stop their putter upon impact with the ball. This type of putting stroke normally leads to decelerating the putter causing a change in the club face angle just prior to and at impact. I think many people feel that once the ball has been struck that the stroke is finished. So, how can you ensure that you accelerate the putter and follow through after impact? One of the best ways I have found to help ensure acceleration is to shorten the backstroke. By shortening the backstroke you will encourage yourself to to swing the putter forward with more speed to get the ball to the hole. As the putter speeds up on the forward stroke it will help to maintain a square putter face leading to more consistent results.</span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 33px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 1.4;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 1.4;">The next time you are on the practice green try taking the putter back a shorter distance. You should find that it will encourage you to accelerate the putter on the forward stroke leading to a longer follow through and more consistent results. As always, good luck and let me know if you have any questions!</span></div>

<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">Introducing another reward for being a SilverHorn member- Member Early Release Tee Times on weekends. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">From time to time we will release a handful of tee times available in the mornings that you will be able to lock in paying your member rate for (even though it will be a morning weekend time). </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">In order to book one of these tee times you must call after 1 pm the day before. For example after 1 pm on a Friday you could call for one of the morning early release member tee times on Saturday. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">These tee times will be available on a first come first serve basis. It is important to follow along here on the <a href="http://www.silverhorngolfclub.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">blog</a>, on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/silverhorngolfclub" target="_blank">Facebook</a> or <a href="http://www.twitter.com/silverhorngc" target="_blank">Twitter</a> to see before hand which tee times will be available. You can also subscribe to our blog via e-mail to receive blog posts directly to your e-mail and therefore be alerted first when these tee times are up for grabs. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The tee times that are listed are the only times available, so if it is taken we will not be able to offer the next tee time at the same offer. Again, this is why it is important to be "in the know"- Facebook, Blog, Twitter, E-mail, etc.</span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are the member early release tee times available for this Saturday and Sunday: </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">Saturday- 10:16 am</span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sunday- 9:20 am, 9:52 am, 10:24 am, 10:56 am</span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The driving range at SilverHorn is currently going through a transition phase. This usually takes place around the month of June every year as the overseed with Ryegrass that is planted in the fall dies. We overseed with Ryegrass in October to provide a nice surface to practice on during the winter and spring months. In combination with very heavy usage of the practice facility the Bermuda grass on the range needs time to fill in after the Ryegrass dies. We will need need to utilize the synthetic turf mats for the most part of June while we aggressively work on cultural practices and fertility rates to help grow the Bermuda grass back in on the tee. </span><br />
