St Andrews And Turf: Q&A With Gordon Moir
Gullane Hill, untouched by the invading ploughshare, has left stretches of the most beautiful golfing country in the world. Turf of exceptional closeness and elasticity, natural sand bunkers of endless shape and variety, sierras of benty dunes and saharas of sand alternating with oases of verdure make the place a veritable golfers paradise.

Nowhere does the pursuit of the game seem so inevitable. JOYCE WETHERED

BEST INDOOR PUTTING GREEN 2022
Best Indoor Putting Green 2022
Do you know the secret to making more putts? We do. Practice and owning a golf putting green really help dial in your putting stroke.
Depending on what you want to improve—like stroke, tempo or having drill videos or challenges laid out for you in an app—this guide will help you find the right putting green for you.
However, some golfers don’t have enough room in their house to practice. Don’t worry! Many golf putting greens offer different sizes to help fit any size of home and get you making more putts in no time.
Take it from us when we say an indoor putting green isn’t just a putting “mat.” We tested the best indoor putting greens on the market to see which ones roll like your country club greens, offer options like break and speed and how durable they are.
WINNER: BirdieBall
If you want a putting green that is the closest thing to the greens you play on every week, the BirdieBall is the one for you. The foam platform allows the ball to roll pure, end over end, allowing you to focus on what matters most: starting the ball on line. It may not have any alignment lines off the bat but you can customize it with whatever you like. These are just some of the reasons BirdieBall was crowned Most Wanted Indoor Putting Green of 2022.

The Open News & Notes, July 7th, 2022: Q&A With Iain Carter
From Gullane Hill to the Luffness Clubhouse is one huge stretch of turf, and such turf! The finest, smoothest and most delicate that was ever seen. It has been said of various people—I do not know who was the original subject—that nobody could be so wise as so-and-so looked; likewise, it might be said that no greens could be so good s the Gullane and Luffness greens look. Never they are are very good indeed, and so is the golf. BERNARD DARWIN
Know Your Ideal Swing for Every Club
Last week we presented the 2 critical issues to help you Perfect Your Game: Mental Focus and Knowing Your Ideal Swing for Each of your Clubs. Mental Focus was covered last week and now we want to share your INDIVIDUAL SECRETS that creates distance and direction control for each club.
These SECRETS are unique for every golfer and every type of club. The weight and flexibility of each club from your driver down to your putter require a special setup and swing for each type of club. You should take lessons to sort out the proper techniques and then you should sort out the exact setup that works for your strength and flexibility.

Jim Furyk is a great example of a golfer who found a strange solution which allows him to shallow his downswing and create straight shots.
