Golf instruction: Bump and Run (Video)

While it is not regarded as a very glamorous shot the bump and run should be a shot in every golfers arsenal. This great little instructional video will give you the basics you need to play this great little shot. As always practice makes perfect (or so they keep telling me) and this shot is one that doesn't take too long to learn. I loved watching Greg Norman play this shot and he had one awesome short game.

Just a word of warning though this shot can be very frustrating - for the opposition! A 60 yard bump and run from my brother (he says he meant it) last round that ended up inches from the hole, while my pitch was still yards away, almost had me in tears.

The best golf shot ever? (video)

I was doing my usual youtube surfing this morning and came across this video of Tiger Woods and this amazing shot. It is listed as the best golf shot ever and while I am not one to argue I am wondering what my readers think about it. If it is not the best it is certainly one of the best and was amazing well thought out!

Golfers choice - Lucky or Good?

This is the age old question, would you rather be lucky or good? Personally I would choose good over lucky everyday, but on those rounds where I wish I was getting paid by the shot I would choose lucky. Now my reason for this is that sometimes a little bit of luck can turn a round into something special. The confidence from something amazing happening during your round can't be discounted.

So today I am asking all my readers the question:

Would you rather be lucky or good? (leave a comment with your choice)

Oh and one last thing - watch this video (it just might change your mind)
