Golf Tips for Seniors

By Robin All

1. Avoid Bending Your Head Down at Address:

  • Many golfers are told to “keep their head down,” which can cause stiffness and restrict shoulder turn.
  • Tip: Keep your eyes on the ball but lift your chin slightly to allow better rotation during your backswing.

2. Allow Head Movement for a Full Backswing:

  • Great players often let their heads turn slightly during the backswing, promoting a freer and more powerful swing.

3. Embrace a Natural Swing:

  • Focus on fluid, relaxed motions rather than rigid positions. A smooth swing helps maintain balance and control.

4. Stay Motivated:

  • Golf improvement is achievable at any age. Set new goals, enjoy the game, and keep learning!

These tips can help senior golfers play more comfortably while maximizing their performance on the course.
