Most golfers think missed putts are a stroke problem. They're not.

Quintic Ball Roll research - putter face angle controls 90-92% of starting direction at impact.

Path? Just 8-10%.

Initial aim. Clubface control. That's it.

Steep attack angle = club digs = heavy or thin.

Fix:
- Squarer stance
- Lower handle
- Longer slower swing
- Clubhead overtakes handle through impact

Shallower sand interaction. Better results on good and bad strikes.

1st June same handicap as January

The gap between a 15 h/c & scratch is almost entirely structural

Callaway Apex Forged vs Titleist T150 vs Ping i240.

Same swing. Same conditions. Trackman data for all three.

Most golfers choose irons on looks or brand loyalty.

The data tells a very different story.

Tonight's Champions League final will be decided by who handles the occasion.

Most golfers don't lose to the course.
They lose to the occasion.

Research confirms pressure performance isn't talent. It's a trained skill.

Shot Scope - 30 million shots.
60% of recreational golfers' missed greens short.

The reason? The perfect shot fallacy.

Judging distances by your best shots - not your average ones.

Take one more club each approach

Doing the same things won't make you a better

Matthew Syed - high achievers don't learn faster per hour. They practise with more intention/feedback.

Carol Dweck - a fixed mindset stops people improving. A growth mindset treats effort as the pathway.

Your swing isn't the problem. Your mobility is.

TPI identifies physical limitations as one of the leading causes of swing faults.

Open book - thoracic rotation
Figure 4 - hip release
World's greatest - everything

The cheapest practice tool in golf 👀

Neuroscience confirms the 🧠 activates identical neural pathways whether you imagine a shot or physically hit it.

Research shows daily visualisation of just 5 minutes outperforms occasional longer sessions

#RossJacksonGolf #golf #golftips

[Ross Jackson - Golf Coach @RossJacksonGolf]

Most golfers don't need more tips.
They need a better feedback loop.

BAD LOOP
Bad round → emotion → random changes → same mistakes

GOOD LOOP
Perform → assess → root cause → practise with intention → refine

Motor learning research is clear.

Minimum 6 weeks of consistent practice to ingrain a single swing change.

Most golfers reset that process every week.

Bad round. New grip. New swing thought. New tip.

Are you guilty?👇

#RossJacksonGolf #golf #golftips #golfcoach #golfmindset

Worn grips are silently wrecking your game

Worn grips = tighter grip pressure
Tighter grip = tension
Tension = lost swing speed/feel

Golf Pride and Lamkin recommend every 40-60 rounds

When did you last replace yours?

You don't need to hit more fairways.
You need to stop losing balls.

15 h/cap = nearly 2 balls lost p/round.
Almost all with the driver.
OOB. Water. Trees.

One rule - minimum 20 yard buffer
from any avoidable danger

#RossJacksonGolf #golf #golftips #golfcoach #coursemanagement

[Ross Jackson - Golf Coach @RossJacksonGolf]

Most golfers grip the club in completely the wrong order

Wrong sequence
Body → Grip → Shaft → Clubface

Correct sequence
Clubface → Shaft → Grip

One change. Immediate impact on clubface alignment, grip + wrist angles

#RossJacksonGolf #golf #golftips #golfcoach #golfgrip

Most golfers ignore how much distance changes in summer.

0.5 yard per degree. Every club.

+10°C = 5 yards extra carry
+20°C = 10 yards extra carry

Then add firm fairways on top.

Same swing. Same club. +20-30 yards.

X

I've barely touched a club in 9 months.

First session back — no expectations.

Strike the middle of the clubface.
Get the reps in. Evaluate honestly.

The golfers who judge you for trying to improve are the ones who never do

One of the most common conversations I have with clients

Being an outlier isn't a weakness. It's what separates those who improve/who never will

#RossJacksonGolf #golfcoach #golfmindset #golfimprovement

[Ross Jackson - Golf Coach @RossJacksonGolf]

Most golfers attack the ball too steeply without knowing it.

Steep wrist hinge up = fat shots, thins, low ball flight.

Fix = feel the clubhead stay low through the swing.

One feeling. Completely different strike.

Most golfers waste 90% of their practice time.

65% of shots happen <100 yards.
90% of practice happens on the range.

2 hours short game p/week.
Potential gains: 5+ shots saved in 3 months

How many shots could you save?👇

Most golfers don’t need a longer backswing.
They need better structure.

This drill helps:
• connection
• width
• sequencing
• strike
• clubface control

Most golfers will feel shorter and hit it better.
