Women’s Golf Newsletters

I know we all have many things on our minds this week besides golf, but I couldn’t let the holiday season pass without sharing our traditional Christmas issue – now celebrating its 10th year!

It seems that with many golfers, swinging off balance is the rule (like me) when it should definitely be the exception – most likely from trying to hit it too hard. Rest assured, this week, Christina Ricci has it covered. Plus, five great video tips for women golfers from our wonderful instructors.

Hot! Hot! Hot! … at least it is in Australia, 35°C/95°F where I am right now. Wherever in the world you are, if you’ve been forced inside by the weather, here are the top highlights (six lessons and an LPGA Tour article) from WomensGolf.com to think about before you can next hit some golf balls.

This week as well as short backswings, the lessons cover pitch and punch shots, a great warm-up routine, saving shots around the green, failsafe fairway bunker escapes and getting more distance by using your big muscles!

This week we feature Anne Rollo’s anti-topping drills, Debbie O’Connell’s 1-2-3 putting tip and five more great video lessons from the Women’s Golf Instructors.

How is your wedge game? In our five lesson issue this week Christina Ricci compares the benefits and drawbacks for steep and shallow wedge swings. And a common question from golfers is how do I stay patient when I want to get back out on the course after an injury or operation? Trillium Rose shares the strategy she used after a bad ankle break.

Quick question for you: Which part of your golf game gives you the most headaches? Whether it’s short putts, stray drives, iron shots that don’t get off the ground, poor chips, or bunker difficulties, I’d love to know!
Just hit reply and tell me your biggest challenge. I’ll send you our highest-rated lesson tailored exactly to that issue. Please give me a day or two to get back to you; I may get very busy because this newsletter goes out to 100,000 golfers!

Six fun lessons and an interesting post from the Women’s Golf Group in this first newsletter for November.

Golf has so many different parts but I love the short game most of all. You don’t need to be athletic and strong to chip or putt well and you can work on it when the weather isn’t good enough to get out on the course. If you’re the same way you’ll love at least three of the six lessons in this week’s newsletter.

The tallest flag in golf and a fun season closing event in Montreal are two of the highlights from the Women’s Golf Group in this week’s issue. And five great lessons for you from Christina Ricci, the ProGolfGals, Trillium Rose, Maria Palozola, and Kristin Walla.

We know instinctively that turning your body at the right time is important but it’s easy to get lazy and overuse your arms or legs in the swing. In this issue Natalie Adams, our UK instructor, has a great drill to help you get turning.

Uneven lies on the course are challenging, it’s so easy to duff the shot. This week’s feature lesson by Christina Ricci will help you hit a clean hybrid from an uphill lie. Another very popular lesson is Marcela Smith’s explanation of the rules when you have a ‘swing and a miss’ or accidentally knock the ball off the tee.
