Everything that is free is not gold. Of course, I am sure that you know this already. Nonetheless, golfers are surfing the internet for free golf lesson and golf videos at an all time high. YouTube is the number one location to find all of these free videos from various so called professionals (some good and some off the deep end). But the average golfer looking for these tips would not recognize a bad tip from a good tip.
So what is a golfer to do? I say you should by an electronic golf swing program from the internet. They are normally only the cost of one round of golf, offer a ton of freebies like score tracking software, mental golf software, and updates to the videos and ebooks you purchase. Most even have a sixty day money back gaurantee. Best of all, they put you on a swing plan with lessons that all tie into the swing system being taught.
But you still want to spend hours surfing through the hodgepodge of free videos and lessons, I know. So what should you do? My tips are below.
Tip 1: When surfing for free golf tips, tips on putting and chipping are so standard in any golf swing system that you almost can't go wrong with any free advise you receive. Putting and chipping tips do not require any special physical strength, timing, or flexibility to perform. This is why the golf swing system that you can purchase online often come with free chipping and putting video and/or instructions.
Tip 2: When surfing for free golf tips, tips on flexibility and strengthening are the second best kind of tips that you can bank on. Further, good flexiblity and strengthening tips make you more capable of performing the fundamentals of any full swing technique. However, you need to make sure that the strength and flexibility exercises you use don't overtax one group of muscles or overstrengthen one group of muscle. This could lead to an imbalance in your swing and possibly injury. This, of course, is something that you would not need to worry about with a regimented system you purchase.
Tip 3: Know that virtually every other kind of golf swing tip that you can receive are subject to scrutiny, specific to your body type and physical abilities, and/or meant for a specific type of golf swing. If you will notice, all of the free golf swing tips are on one small area of the game. There are no long hour or two hour videos that breakdown an entire swing system and the physical capabilities needed to perform the swing system. Beware, in the sea of hodgepodge when it comes to the full swing tips.
