The weather is cold, the ground is wet and the greens are soft. The ball just isn’t going to bounce and roll all the way to the pin.
In order to get it there, you are going to have to use one or two clubs more than you would in the summer months.
It’s just a fact of life. It wouldn’t hurt (actually it might) to try to do some stretching exercises before you go out to play.
The muscles don’t warm up as fast in this weather. We are wearing twice the clothing, and it’s difficult to get the club back as far.
When it’s cold and windy, we try to swing a little shorter and a little faster – both of which are wrong.
For more help with your swing, see your local PGA or LPGA golf professional.
