Kimball Golf Club news (July 4, 2019)

Anyone can play golf!
It doesn’t matter if you are particularly tall or strong, all body types can succeed. Look on the PGA and L.P.G.A. tours, where the top golfers come in all shapes and sizes. Age doesn’t much matter, unless you want to be a touring pro. Even a lack of flexibility or athleticism can be counteracted with savvy and skill around the greens. Just being a good putter will make you a good golfer. And who can’t putt a little white ball into a little hole? New York Times

Practice your putting the right way
Strokes are waiting to come off your scores if you can spend more time on the practice green and become a more effective putter. Most golfers ignore this part of the game to their own detriment. The stats show that most golfers can improve by making more putts inside 10 feet, and eliminating three putts. There are two ways you can do this. The first is by working on your speed control, and the second is learning to square the putter face at impact. PracticalGolf.com.
