With the golf season coming to an end, now is the perfect time to start thinking about how you can improve your game for next year. But are you actually making the most of your practice, or are you just hitting balls without a plan?
In this episode of the Your Golf Podcast, Nicola Slater is joined by PGA Professional Jack Backhouse to discuss how amateur golfers should approach their winter practice and prepare for the upcoming season.
Jack explains why understanding your strengths and weaknesses is essential before making changes, how tracking your performance can help identify the areas costing you shots, and why structured, measurable practice is far more effective than simply working on your swing.
They also explore how to practise effectively without expensive technology, simple putting drills you can do at home, when to consider changing your equipment, and why waiting until spring to start preparing could be one of the biggest mistakes golfers make.
Plus, Jack shares his experiences of coaching golfers online, while the pair discuss some of the latest equipment launches and developments in the golf industry.
Whether you're looking to lower your handicap, improve your consistency or simply make better use of your time at the driving range, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you get ahead of the game before next season.
