Warm up before you tee off
Why should you warm up before you tee off? Well, you might be interested to know that 86% of low-handicap players warm-up before they hit balls, compared with only 29% of high-handicap players?
Not only will a warm-up reduce your risk of injury, it can increase your carry distance by 4 yards, and driving accuracy by 6 yards. That could be the difference between rough and fairway or bunker and green!
Prepare your body for the rigours of the swing. Repeat this easy 10mins warm-up using your favourite club before you hit.
