Hurley Golf: March 2006
http://hurleygolf.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 13, 2006. Your goal from reading this blog is to become aware of your body, your thoughts and your emotions. How can you change anything without becoming aware? Let's begin today's post with posture. Check your posture. Place your heels against a blank wall or a door or a door jam. Place your buttocks, the mid part of your back, and the back of you head against the wall, door or door jam. Are your ears and eyes level or is your head tilted back? Does it hurt or is it uncomfortable? Golf Cou...

Hurley Golf: May 2006

Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Posted by PGA Professional at 10:49 AM. Links to this post. Saturday, May 06, 2006. Better aware in putting. Being aware is a favorite saying on this blog. It is crucial to understanding the factors leading to better putting. The two biggest factors in putting improvement are tension in the hands and poor dominant eye set-up. How much tension is in your hands when you putt? Can you feel the texture of the grip on your putter? Posted by PGA Professional at 10:52 AM. Golf Course Ho...

Hurley Golf: April 2006
http://hurleygolf.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 30, 2006. Do you play Golf? Sounds silly. If you're reading this blog chances are you think you play golf. However, most people on the golf course are not playing golf. The first four years I was on the golf course, I played the same game most of you are playing today. It wasn't golf. Wrong I missed several putts under three feet. Since that tournament, I putt out everytime. No gimmes. Why is putting out important? The more putts you see go in, the more putts you'll make. I found out by alw...

Hurley Golf: October 2006

Tuesday, October 03, 2006. It's been a long, hot, and busy summer. Things are finally slowing down which let's me go back to posting. What a summer in golf. Tiger Woods has finally figured out how to set up and swing correctly for his dominant eye(Tiger is left eye dominant). If you have read this blog before, you know what I think about the dominant eye. The results speak for themselves. If you have any questions or topics for future posts, e-mail me at hurleygolf@cableone.net. Links to this post. Thoug...

Hurley Golf: January 2006
http://hurleygolf.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 29, 2006. Again, sorry for the delay in posting. I have been busy with other things and have neglected this blog. You can check your posture by standing with your back to a wall or door. Put your heels, butt, upper back, and head against the wall or door. Does this feel comfortable? If not, you have posture issues which need to be addressed. That's all for now. Thanks for your attention. Posted by PGA Professional at 7:56 AM. Links to this post. Sherman, Texas, United States.

Hurley Golf: November 2005
http://hurleygolf.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 27, 2005. Sorry for the delay in posting. Got busy with other things and holiday events. Today's post covers set-up and alignment. Set-up determines where you swing the club. Alignment determines the direction the ball begins it's flight. Clubface alignment determines the shape of the ball flight. Having the correct grip for you takes care of clubface alignment. Let's take care of set-up. And where should the ball be in my stance? When a player is playing well, the target's the thing....

Saturday, December 02, 2006. Since my last post, I've been busy with lessons, play and work. I have been blessed with a good job, a great family, and the good fortune to play the greatest game. I have also been doing more dynamic flexibility training. I still do static stretching, but have included the dynamic stretching. There will be more on dynamic stretching in the future.

Monday, February 20, 2006. Good morning from North Texas. With the weather keeping everyone inside, what have you done to improve yourself and/or your golf game? Here's what I did. On Saturday, I spent the morning at the golf course clubhouse. Some of you know of the exercise options which I have brought to the clubhouse. We've got an exercise ball, 10 lb. medicine ball, chin-up bar, 15 lb. dumbbells, ab dolly, broom, and weighted club. Imagine the possibilities. How was your weekend? Links to this post.

Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Spent Tuesday morning in Dallas at the Body Balance for Performance and finished my certification as a Certified Instructor. It's a direction I've been persuing for some time now and this is another step toward being a better teacher. In previous posts I've detailed how to improve your posture and there are several good hamstring stretches you probably already know. Daily attention to the problem will resolve this issue and improve your movement. Until next time, thanks. Among t...
