Warming Up Before a Round of Golf

by Mike in Golf Tips | Posted on January 24th, 2010 | 52 Comments

Just as every other sport requires its players to warm up for performing better, golfers also need it to attain better swings. Pro golfers go through regular and proper warm up sessions before the round begins and as a result, you see near-perfection in their strokes right from the start. On the other hand, if one asks a recreational golf player about what he does for warming up, the answer will simply be rushing from their cars to check in, and then dashing towards their tees; all in less than five minutes, in most cases. However, if a player aims for good swings, he must do more than that.

Here is our suggested schedule for individuals who want to play golf on a particular day:

  • Make sure you arrive early at the golf course, at least by 45 minutes. This will give you time to relax and get into your pre-play preparations nicely and easily. Also, it will do your confidence a world of good and it lets the excitement and anticipation build. Having time on your hands also allows you to prepare for the day ahead.
  • Next, you should start your practice at the putting green first. Since putting is the most relaxing stroke, you are bound to be more relaxed when practicing. Along with this advantage, you will also get an assessment about the speed of the green and another advantage is that it will build a tempo which will be smooth and comforting. Then spend some time in rolling some putts into the tees and hitting putts that run up the hill.
  • Analyze the nature of the green by stroking the ball with different speeds. Spend some time hitting a few chips in the green. Make the tee your target.
  • Next comes practicing your swings with stretching.
  • Take an easy walk from your stretching spot to the practice tees. Then practice full swings with strokes that are small wedged. After hitting a few, gradually proceed from short irons towards long irons and then towards woods. This will help you to attain some balance and rhythm.
  • Finally comes timing this routine. Make sure you pan it in such a way that it finishes just as your group comes in to start play. In case there is a delay in their arrival, keep working on the stretching.

If you fail to maintain a warm up routine, your game will suffer. Think like a pro and give your best to everything you do, and not just the game.
