The position of the right elbow (for right handers) in the backswing is often misunderstood. Sue Shapcott shows how your elbow should rotate up on the backswing and not stay tucked in or flare out.

This is absolutely brilliant! I’ve been wanting some ideas for golf exercises - and these are perfect! Thank you 😊

I just joined , maybe a week ago. LOVE IT. Love all the lessons and that you can search for. You can search specific topics and pull up several lessons.

I don’t know what I would do without your site - it has been so beneficial to improving my game!

The advantage over other lesson websites are the member groups: the lesson one for a quick lesson or two and the fun of feeling connected to female golfers around the world through the social group.

I have improved my game greatly with your lessons online. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to play better golf! Thank you for a great website!

A Great New Lesson Posted Every Day!

Hi Jane, just wanted to say hi and let you know how much I enjoy and have learned from this site. I always talk about how informative this site is with the girls in my golf group.

In the last 30 days there have been 264 posts and 1243 comments.

I just wanted to tell you that I LOVE the little lesson/tip snippets (side hill lie, and out-to-in slice fix were both awesome). They are so so helpful!

30 New Lessons Available for Members in the last Month

I’m really enjoying this membership. The lessons are helpful and the camaraderie is unique and special.

I joined a couple of weeks ago. I really like that the lessons are short and only address one thing. So often you are tied in knots after getting too many instructions. Glad I joined.

A year later...and I still love all I’m learning from this group!

I am really impressed with Women's Golf and couldn't be more pleased with my membership and all of the great resources I can access.

Thank you for such a wonderful resource! I just joined and am so thankful for you and the other women golfers in this community.

I just wanted to pop on and tell you how grateful I am that you have a lesson on the scorecard and handicap! I am really enjoying your website and the facebook social group.

How a Downhill Slope Affects the Flight of Your Ball

Sue Shapcott from Change Golf Instruction shows how to play better downhill sloping shots by adjusting your set up position and swing.

Keep Your Grip Pressure Firm

Sue Shapcott shows how conventional wisdom about keeping your grip loose can be misleading. You need enough grip pressure to control your club and having too little pressure on the club can be worse than gripping too hard.

Swinging Well When You Only Have Limited Flexibility

Sue Shapcott has a great workaround if you struggle with upper body mobility and can't turn very far on your backswing.
