Things are cooling off outside, but they are warming up at the Big Bend Golf Center in Valley Park. The wind shields are up and the heaters are on. So what do you plan to do about your game this winter? The last thing you want to do is let all your hard work from this year go by the way side. Think about how you make progress with an exercise program after a couple of months and feel great. When you lay off for a couple of weeks though, you feel awful and it’s like starting all over again. It’s the same with golf.
Here are a handful of things you can easily do to get a jump on the spring season:

Here are a handful of things you can easily do to get a jump on the spring season:
- 1) Take advantage of winterized facilities like Big Bend even if it’s just once a week to keep your body used to the swing motion. (I know my other facility, Family Golf in Kirkwood stays open as well, but they shut out the lights at 6:00).
- 2) Get on a golf fitness program like the one I run with Jeff Pelizarro at Elevated Performance in Des Peres.
- 3) Hit on a simulator. Senior Pique’s in Ballwin has a really nice one in the back. The owner Angel Jiminez is a golf nut!
- 4) Take by-weekly or monthly lessons to keep your swing honed. I will be teaching both inside and outside this winter.
- 5) Get active on MyGolfInstructor.com. There are over 30 indoor drills for working on your game indoors. There are also hundreds of articls, tips and videos to keep yourself in improvement mode during the off season. Reading the tip of the day and watching a video or two daily will make a big difference in your understanding of things by spring.
