We are all looking for quick fixes to lower our golf scores, but it's often difficult to know how to achieve this other than just hitting more balls on the range. There are some simple things one can do on a round by round basis. Here are 3 tips to incorporate into your golf routine to help you drop 5 strokes in no time.

Tip #1- Keep Track of Vital Stats to Lower Your Scores

This is so important, but not something many golfers do. Of course, most players will keep track of their score, establish a handicap, and measure how they played and improvement by that standard. Try it for a month- Keep track of putts per round, greens in regulation, fairways hit, the side you missed the fairway on, and up and downs. This can really help the golfer figure out exactly what they need to work on while practicing. Perhaps your time is better spent chipping that banging more drivers on the range? The stats will show you.

Tip #2- Measure Your Average Distances To Drop Future Scores

Well, of course most golfers know how long they hit their clubs, right? It's surprising how often a golfer will over-estimate how far they hit their clubs, despite the results staring them in the face hole after hole. Sometimes players will go the entire round hitting shots on the green, but 10 or 15 yards short of the pin, and it never occurs to them they hit the wrong club! Or perhaps they barely mis-hit a shot and came up just short of the green. Keeping more exact track of how far the ball goes for each iron can be a very quick way to lower your golf score. Proper distance control is so important to having shorter putts for birdie and par, and it all starts with hitting the right club to the green.

Tip #3- Use Exact Yardages, Not Approximations

It logically follows that because a golfer can never hit a shot an exact yardage that they calculate, that they shouldn't care about the exact yardage. This logic would be false. Often times this logic can lead to gross miscalculations, and pulling entirely the wrong club before a shot. It's so vital to know exactly what the yardage to the target is, then all information afterwards is easier to make sense of! If you are short, you now know if you hit it poorly or picked the wrong club. If you didn't know the distance in the first place, you get no feedback on the shot.

There's 3 simple tips to lowering your golf scores in very little time. All the tips boil down to knowing more about the situation and shot at hand.

The Simplest Way to Keep Track of Stats, Measure Your Distances and Lower Your Score?

Implementing the use of a golf GPS system is a quick and easy way to achieve all above tips, lower your score, and make the game more enjoyable. Some models track all stats, keep score, and track your distances with a simple touch of a button.

Others show simple numbers, helping out different golfers with less need for all the features.
