Here are a few tips from PGA Head Golf Professional Tom Burley that will help get you prepared as we head into the 2017 season. Get back in the swing of things. Let's enjoy our holiday meals, but once the holidays are over, let's get exercising. Golfers tend to swing the club better when their body feels good and rotates properly. Stretching your core will im- prove your turn radius through the shot. Re-grip your clubs. Having tacky new grips will help you control the club dur- ing the swing and build confidence. The better the club feels in your hands, the more the mind feels good about swing- ing that club. The Golf Shop at Indian Wells has a great grip selection for the season; swing by to explore the options. Get a new glove. A new glove will en- hance the soft feel you get when grip- ping the club. Holding onto the club properly throughout the swing gives you the best chance at a solid shot. A new glove mixed with new grips should give you a renewed freshness between your hands and the club. Change the soft spikes on your shoes. Winter mornings can be chilly and leave dew on the grass, which can sometimes create slippery conditions. Having fresh spikes on the bottom of your golf shoes will allow you to stay connected with the ground, giving you the best chance at putting a quality swing on the ball. Stay committed. Unlike most of our New Year's resolutions that last about a week, you should stay on top of being prepared for a good round of golf all year long. Motivate yourself to get out there and continue to practice and stay focused. A little commitment will go a long way in this game.
