I have written about the other two in previous blogs so here is the rest of the story! ha ha.

Also this golfer can change the style, or stance, and angle of the golf clubs used to get the desired effect.
If this is you, congratulations you must practice your wedges very diligently, and often. And i would guess that you have a pretty low handicap as a reward for your work. Your wedges should have medium to low bounce so you have the versatility you need to change up on your shots to adapt.
Titleist Golf Clubs leaves you with this tip: you should have in you golf bag at least one wedge with increased sole relief to maximize your shot making opportunities.

Tips on Putting a 50 Footer part 2
When you start your backswing on a long putt you have to keep in your mind to make the stroke long and smooth. Your left wrist, on righthanded golfers, starts out cupped but if you let your wrists react to the club head weight it will flatten out.
Then on the downswing you should not even be thinking about your speed, you set that with your backswing distance. The hinge you created on the backswing with your left wrist will work in your favor on the way down. Hit the ball with your right hand and allow the putter head to rotate closed before you hit the golf ball.
With practice and perserverence you can improve your golf swing and sometimes maybe even make a few. Always remember to think draw with the right hand to help put a good clean roll on the ball, very important.
Tips on Putting a 50 Footer
Most of us golfers, when faced with a very long putt, have trouble figuring out the best way to get the golf ball to stop close enough to the hole to make this a two putt hole. Well here is some tips that hopefully will help the next time you miss your approach shot.
Don’t get so focused on the length of the putt that you forget how to maintain a smooth stroke. A short or normal stroke with a stabby motion can leave you very short or very long. You need a long back swing so the putter head can gather momentum to push the golf ball to the hole.
It is also ok to use your wrists a little to get the length of putt correct. Come back later for tips on the proper golf swing for 50 foot putts. No matter what kind of golf equipment you own and how much you paid for your putter practice and patients is always required.
A Rainy day, Still Golf? part 2
Nylon rain 
gear is a good way to tolerate the damp or wet conditions you may encounter. These consist of a long sleeved jacket and drawstring pants that have a zipper at the bottom of the pant leg so that you can put them on without taking off your shoes. This type of apparel can be put on in less than a minute, which is good if you are caught in a sudden downpour.
The more expensive golf rain suits are not only waterproof on the outside but on the inside as well. Also important if you live where it can be hot and rainy is to have rain apparel that breathes. this will prevent condensation from building up and making you hot and uncomfortable.
When you put on rain gear over your other clothes you now have another layer to restrict your swing movements. That is why you want a lightweight thin suit. If you have tried a poncho for golf then you know what i am taking about.
Get your golf apparel, put it in your bag and then you to can golf on threatening days without worry.

Add zip to your irons part 2
A golfer has a tendency to hang back on the swing and try to help the ball up but that is the wrong thing to do. And if you do this inconsistently your approach shots will never be the correct distance. If you are inconsistent hitting the golf ball on approach shots it is obvious the score will rise.
To be a good iron player and let your golf equipment do the job it was designed to do you have to hit down and through all the iron shots, even the wedges. Here is a couple good swing thoughts for you to remember. Keep everything moving forward all of the way through the shot, do not hold back.
The other thought is when you hit the golf ball the back of your left hand should be facing the target. You need to feel as if you are backhanding the ball at the time of contact. the nine iron will always go the correct distance if you hit it the same way every time, thus lowering the score count, everybody’s goal.
This is a good tip for a beginners guide to golf and a good reminder for the rest of us also. Now get out there and hit the ball, have fun.
How to add Zip to your Irons
Here is a good beginners guide to golf and probably many other of us experienced golfers to improve your golf swing. If you feel like your golf clubs just do not have the power feel behind them you would like, maybe you are trying to hard.
If you hit your golf ball on your approach shot and it falls short and right of the target this could be your problem. This high right miss of the target happens when you try to help your ball get up in the air so it lands soft on the green. But all the golf ball does is balloon up in the air and fall to the ground short of the target like a wounded duck.
This comes from hanging back on the swing and leaving your weight on your back foot to long in an effort to help the ball up in the air. That swing just turns your golf club, say an eight iron into a nine or pitching wedge which is why it falls short.
