Want to play better golf? Here are 5 very easy tips you can do now to play better golf -

1. Although training aids can be tremendously helpful in working out the kinks in your game, the importance of good equipment can't be underestimated. A good set of golf clubs will help you play your best, but if you can't afford a new set, you can always opt for brand name pre-owned golf clubs. Used golf clubs often come with a certification and warranty, so you can be assured of their quality.

2. Eat right for fat loss and mental energy. You won't get tired on the course. For energy try snacking on healthy foods at various points in the day - heck even Tiger Woods snack (but not on junk food).

3. Practice long putts - This is one of the best drills to improve your putting touch, putt balls to the edge of the putting green. Get about 5 balls and start about 30 feet away from the fringe and try to putt the balls as close to the fringe as possible. During this drill don't worry about direction, only speed. Keep doing this and vary the distance from the fringe.

4. Your Stance - The important point to remember with the stance is to keep your weight balanced and your feet position getting wider up to shoulder width as the club you are using gets longer. So for the driver you will want the most stability thus a wider stance with your legs shoulder width apart is ideal. Also the ball position should start at the center of your stance for a wedge and move up to the heel of your left foot for the driver.

5. Warm up and gently stretch your muscles before starting a round, and it is equally important to cool down properly after your game. Just a few stretches after a round of golf can help reduce the risk of any injuries, particularly to the back and hamstrings. Walking can tighten your hamstrings and that makes them more susceptible to tearing and injury. A good golf swing also requires a lot of back movement and if you haven't warmed up properly before your first swing, you could do some severe damage.

The tips above are simple but are often overlooked - because there are so simple. If you keep it simple - your game will be much more effectie and consistent. At the end of the day, consistent practice is the key.
