January Newsletter

Welcome to Moore Park Golf for January

Welcome to the January edition of Moore Park Golf's newsletter. We hope that you enjoyed a happy Christmas and New Year with your family and friends.

We are pleased to report that the golf course and the driving range thrived during the holiday period despite the well needed rain between Christmas and New Year. As a result of this rain the golf course is in great condition and the green-keeping team is busy dealing with the speedy growth of the grass.

I mentioned in the December newsletter that we have been developing strategies to reduce slow play. During the Christmas to New Year period a number of these strategies were tested, some successful and others not so successful. Some of the strategies included: increased presence of course marshals and a communications procedure between marshals, 1st tee starter and the Pro Shop. I would still like to encourage your feedback on this issue via our email address info@mpgolf.com.au

School of Golf - Golf Tip - Putting

The key to consistent putting is alignment. Most students that come to us for putting problems have their feet, and therefore their club face aiming incorrectly (usually to the right of target). This generally leads to deceleration of the club and causing many putts to be short and off line.

A simple remedy is to place a club along your feet and ensure that the putter is aiming slightly left of the hole on a straight putt.
