In this issue

It's not everyday that a young Singapore professional golfer gets full playing privileges on the Asia Tour. So when James Leow finally earned his way into that new realm, it opens the doors to a wealth of possibilities, not least is the chance to get to play on the lucrative LIV golf series. Pro It, the GM of the exclusive Robinswood GC in Bangkok also started out playing the game for money. But serendipitously, he has veered towards golf club management and is beginning to find his feet in a career that has taken him to greater heights. Golf presents myriad opportunities for those willing to open their minds, work hard, and be at the right place at the right time.

BUILD A BETTER GRIP

Winter is a great time to start forging some new, more productive habits - and here is one of the best. Taking hold of the club is something we have to do before every shot, but few club golfers give much thought to how they go about it. That’s a great shame because the process can make or break the effectiveness of the hold — and, by extension, the shot. Here is a simple thing you can do to get the club running through the correct parts of the hands every time.

SIDE-ON DELIVERY

Impact and throughswing are arguably when our bodies are at their most vulnerable. The club is moving at its fastest here - hopefully! - and physically, we are under the most strain. Unfortunately, because of the speed of movement, this is also when we are least aware of what we are putting our bodies through - and that can lead to problems we are not even aware of. This month's topic - an inability to clear the hips and a side-on impact position - is a great example, potentially damaging the back and lead hip besides producing a range of unwanted shots. Here's what to look out for- and what you can do about it.

TRAIL-HAND CHIPPING

THE RISKY PITCH?

Now here is a situation that is just crying out for some sensible course management and execution. This is the short par-4 9th at the lovely Stoneham GC, Hants, and after a good drive I'm just 50 yards from the hole. But the greenkeeper has defended the hole well, placing the pin on the far left and dangerously close to a deep drop that offers precisely zero chance of an up-and-down. Any golfer in this situation is faced with a dilemma: we can spot a sucker pin when we see one, but at the same time we don't want to abandon all hope of getting down in two more by playing ultra-safe. So here is a plan for the shot that offers some cautious aggression. Keep it in mind for when you're next faced with a risky pitch.
