Founded in 1989, the United States Golf Teachers Federation began making history by training and certifying golf teaching professionals for the golfing public. By opening the door to those that previously were never given the opportunity to teach golf, the USGTF started a trend that has led the game through two decades of growth and popularity never seen before.
Today, the USGTF is the largest organization of strictly golf teaching professionals in the world with over 22,000 members. The USGTF is a founding member of the World Golf Teachers Federation® and is one of 35 member nations that make up this entity. Both Federations help to establish the world's standard for golf teaching professionals.  

The USGTF educational theme is that of progressive learning. We incorporate four levels of certification for the golf teaching professional. You may select any level of certification that is necessary for your needs. It is not required to attend Level I or Level II prior to attending the Level III full certification. This approach allows you the opportunity to progress comfortably at your own pace in the golf teaching industry.

I’ve always wanted to hit it further, from the time I first picked up a golf club.  I remember seeing a picture of a professionals swing and it captured my attention.
 
The photo showed him mid-down swing.  His hands were by his waist, but the club was pointing straight up and had a good amount of flex.  From that day I set out to imitate that position.
 
Over time I learned better ways to hit the ball, and some times I would hit it longer, but I just wasn’t consistent enough.  I remember one day going out to the driving range, and there was a fence at about 240 yards, about 60 feet high.  For one moment it clicked, and easily hit a 3 wood over that fence.  It was a warm sunny summer day.  I managed to do that a couple of times, then went back to over swinging and inconsistent hits.

It took me some time to figure things out.  I stopped playing golf for about 15 years.  I came back to it a 26 handicap, basically picked up where I left off.  I knew I could do better.  The pros I had taken lessons from had always told me that I could have been really good, if only I applied myself.
 
Over the next three years I worked on my swing and little by little I learned.  And what I learned astounded me.
 
I learned how to hit further and straighter with less effort.  I learned why that image I had from when I was a kid learning the game was wrong.  And how it had set me on the wrong path to pure ball striking.  And I learned how to hit it solid, time and again, with less effort.  This is what you will learn in this ebook.
 
Golf is not about power.  It is about efficiency.  And this book teaches you how to improve your efficiency, lower your effort, and hit longer straighter shots.  I am no longer a 26 handicap.  In one year I dropped to a 12, and in the last year I dropped to an 8.  I believe this year, I could go scratch.  Now I’m not saying you will have the same results, but what you will learn is how to be more efficient.  With that knowledge you can start your own Journey to Scratch.
 
This book will show you:
   •The secret to effortless power.
   •How you can hit the sweet spot more often.
   •How to use the swing path to add distance and accuracy.
   •How to stop tension from robbing you of distance.
   •How to create tour lag.
   •And more
Subscribe to the “Journey to Scratch” newsletter.  Each newsletter will update you on the latest swing information, reviews and more.

the hopes of not missing their tee time or the first hole or simply frustrated on the range or golf course because things aren’t going their way .  Golfers’ need to follow a course of action or regular plan that works for each individual to get them in the right frame of mind before playing or practicing. For example, if you’re going to play, a solid course of action is sticking to your schedule so you can manage your time effectively;  make a check list of the necessities you require (food, balls, gloves, shoes) etc. forgetting something can affect your mood and attitude and add some frustration to your day even prior to getting started. Start out by allowing yourself a minimum of 60 minutes of time “at the course” before your scheduled tee time. Get in the car and cruise in a calm manner to the course, listen to some easy listening music, fast paced music can get you in a different frame of mind and even affect your tempo as the last song you listened to usually sticks in our heads, in some cases all day sub-consciously. Follow a regular warm up routine. (stretching, short game, hitting session)  Doing some of these related tasks will help get you in the right frame of mind and will provide some structure toward getting your attitude on Team Positive so you can have a successful day on the golf course.
 
Concentration ~
1. The action or power of focusing one’s attention or mental effort.
2. Dealing with one particular thing above all others.
 
The ability to concentrate in golf is often mis-understood.  Many players at the amateur level feel the necessity to try and grind and concentrate for a 4 and half hour time frame.  This is virtually impossible. What is very important, is to understand how to focus in short bursts. The golf swing is on average 1.5 seconds and the fewer the thoughts the better. Most of the time concentration is done in preparation to execute a shot.  I prefer my students and players to get in a 20 to 30 second bubble of concentration prior to hitting the shot and follow this routine throughout practice and of course play. I know if you follow this kind of structured concentration you will increase your opportunity at producing a more desired outcome.
 
Emotions ~
1. an affective state of consciousness in which joy, sorrow, fear, hate, or the like, is experienced, as distinguished from cognitive and volitional states of consciousness.
 
This pertains to golf as it’s very important to remain on an even keel when playing.  There have been some players along the way such as David Duval, Fred Couples and Dustin Johnson to name a couple of current players that have been criticized for not showing enough emotion.  They have an innate ability to “control” their emotions and are never too high and never too low and rarely show their frustrations.  This ability has been a skill they have developed over the course of their career as being able to accept the outcome or by product of the shot they executed. It may also be a personality trait, but in tough pressure situations this skill is definitely an advantage.  It provides a platform to remain calm. Players need to control their fears. Perhaps, they’re afraid of  specific shots on certain holes? Players need to control their joys, the holes they do really well on and look forward to and even though they might not have played them yet, they might have thought too far ahead. For example, “oh, #8 and # 11 are my birdie holes.”  Some of this is set up by first starting off with a positive attitude, if you stick to a few of the guidelines above, you’re ahead of the game. If you combine your positive Attitude along with some short burst Concentration its a recipe for success.  If you have a negative attitude or poor concentration this will undoubtedly build up to a boiling point of frustration that we as professionals see in club throwing, cursing and other outbursts that will takeaway from your experiences both present and future until you decide to change or realize you need to get your emotions in check.
 
These are just a few of my brief thoughts on some Mental Game ideas that I know are beneficial.  Jason Helman Golf  is here to coach you to a better game.

Learn How To Control 3 Major Aspects of YourSelf
from "Jason Helman" at http://www.jasonhelmangolf.com/
Attitude ~
1. manner, disposition, feeling, position, etc., with regard to a person or thing; tendency or orientation, especially of the mind: a negative attitude; positive attitude
2. position or posture of the body appropriate to or expressive of an action, emotion,
It’s extremely important to approach golf with the right attitude or be in the correct frame of mind when you’re ready to play or practice. Your’re either on Team Negative Attitude or Team Positive Attitude, obviously,  it’s important to be on Team Positive. Too many times we see the tendency of people rushing to the first tee un prepared, which usually means they’re feeling stressed while driving/speeding to get to the course in

The United States Golf Association and the R&A have published the new Rules of Golf for 2012-15.  Changes in the Rules - which for the first time have been designed, published and presented jointly by golf's governing bodies - include exonerating a player from penalty if it is known their ball was moved by the wind after address.  Following an exhaustive, four-year review of golf's 34 playing Rules, nine principal Rules have been amended to improve clarity and ensure penalties are appropriate.  Click here to view the complete changes to the Rules of Golf and Amateur Status.

Another thing to look out for this season is a bold trouser. Choose retro colours for a look that pops on the golf course. Team bright daring pants with vintage style knitwear that has a retro pattern. Argyle and stripes are set to be a big this summer. You can find the latest golfing fashions at Scottsdale

According to trendy golf magazines such as Golf Punk, golf is the new rock and roll. Their pages are adorned with beautiful people on the golf course, in the latest swanky threads and tight fitting tank tops. Where fashion and designer labels go, beautiful people follow, so it’s no wonder the clean and simple designs of these designer golf lines have helped make golf cool. Brands likeLyle and Scott are now synonymous with style on the fairways.
 
Lyle and Scott – a Lifestyle Brand
 
Lyle and Scott is a 21st Century lifestyle brand; the clothes are worn by PGA stars such as JesperParnevik and Aaron Baddeley. And golf is now a major celebrity sport, meaning more celebrities then ever are wearing Lyle and Scott golf gear. Even off the fairways, celebs have worn Lyle and Scott out and about.
 
Famous Players wear Lyle and Scott
 
Famous players have taken to the sport in droves in recent years and designer brands such as Lyle and Scott have become even more high profile as a result. The words ‘street’ ‘attitude’ and ‘fashion’ are mixing up the more middle class, traditional and dull image golf has laboured under in the past. Stars such as Catherine Zeta Jones, King of Cool Samuel L Jackson and even our own Ant and Dec are addicted to swinging their clubs, and can be seen sporting some impressive designer wear, including Lyle and Scott.
 
Golf – Designers Dominate
 
Golf is a sport obsessed with clothes and fashion. Lyle and Scott features photos on its website of many golfing starts in dapper threads.  Funky and punk are words that dominate golf-style as the designers and celebs reclaim the game as their own. Golf clothing has never had a sexy image, but all that has changed with the help of Lyle and Scott.
 
Sensible Slacks? Choose Lyle and Scott
 
And it isn’t just the men who are making golf more rock’n’roll by turning their backs on sensible slacks and opting for Lyle and Scott threads instead. Women golfers are leading the way when it comes to style on the golf course, with some celebrity golfers even launching their own designer lines. Famous female golfers such as Sophie Sandolo are also changing the game’s image, becoming a glamour model for the game – Sophie is naturally Italian and so has an inherent sense of fashion. Models, celebrities and pop stars – no wonder fashion and golf have become such close bed partners.    

New Fashion Trends on the Golf Course
100golfschools-home2001003.jpg

Golfing fashion has helped turn golf into a game for the conventional into a game for the cool crowd. This season, golf is really getting to grips with stand out style. There are a range of classy knits and smart cuts that will no doubt be showcased on the green this season.

Golf Tips
    Whether you are a novice or an expert, choosing golf balls is crucial. Here are some invaluable tips on how to select the proper ones for your level of play.
 
Choose a ball that is suitable to your skill level
If you are a novice, choose the hard ones. If you are already a good player, you can opt to try using balls that have more spin, like the softer variant.
 
Pick a ball that is compatible with your playing style
Are you a scratch player? If so, you will want to use a ball that is hard and gives less spin. Are you a player that is more of a miss-hit type, then you may want to use a balata covered ball.
 
Know what level of compression is suited to you
We define compression as the measure of how hard the ball is. A rule of thumb is that the harder the compression, the harder the ball feels. Many players fall prey to the notion that a harder compressed ball can travel further. When distance is your main consideration, you should look at the club head's speed. This factor is more important to distance compared to compression.
 
Familiarise yourself with the material
Aside from the traditional two piece balls, there are new companies out there that are starting to incorporate metals such as titanium into their golf equipment. These manufacturers believe that since the metals they use have a higher density and the gravity centre is more accurately produced, the balls they make create more spin. There are some companies that make golf equipment with more durable, consistent, and have a soft feel. These balls are the more expensive ones that are typically made with synthetic covers. You can find Srixon golf balls at www.118golf.co.uk
 
Buy only golf balls that you can afford
We now live in economically challenging times. Petrol prices are getting higher, and items become more expensive. This is why in purchasing golf equipment, make sure that you always live within your means. Define what is affordable, and stick to your budget. There are balls in the market that may cost below £1.50 each. Other balls that may be made of similar materials will cost higher because of the brand name that it carries. Always be aware of this. As a general rule, surlyn covered balls are relatively cheap, while balata-covered balls are priced at a premium.
