Escaping Sand Traps: How To Get Out Alive

It’s inevitable. Eventually, we all end up in the sand. But how you react once you do end up in the trap can make or break your hole and, if it doesn’t go quite as planned, your round. That’s why today we’re going to talk about how to get out of the sand consistently and how you should approach escaping the sand trap mentally.

To Walk or to Ride?

Back in 1457, the creators of golf back in Scotland never put much thought into a question that’s almost impossible to avoid now when you step onto the course.

A Midseason Recap and Big News for The Golf Academy

It’s hard to believe we’ve made it into August already! It seems like just yesterday we were talking about the first round of the year and since then things around The Golf Academy have only picked up. Now some of you have been here since the beginning of things last winter and I’ll apologize because it has been a while since I’ve been publicly active here but I assure you, I have been busy. It’s been a great summer and for those of you that are still around I promise you the wait will be worth it! I have a great plan for the future of The Golf Academy, and it’s that vision that I want to chat about with you today.
