How to avoid water hazard

Some tip from the so called pro golfer:

Water is everywhere on Golf Course, and will make even the best players in the world a little squeamish. More often than not, however, they manage to keep the ball safe. The average golfer does not. The mere presence of water is hazardous to their health.


Here are a few tips designed to keep your ball dry:

No. 1, remove the word “don’t” from your vocabulary. If your last thought before taking the club back is, “I don’t want to go left” or “I don’t want to miss short,” then guess what, you’re probably going to wind up left or short, and in the drink. Acknowledge the possibility that you “can” hit a good shot, and go about the business of executing that shot. Always make your last thought a positive one.

Secondly, pick the highest target you can. The farther up a tree you look the less likely you are to see water. If the flag is the highest target you can shoot for, focus on the top of the stick, not the bottom. When you’re on the driving range, make it a practice to pick out high targets.

And finally, make sure you complete both sides of your swing. Most nervous swings result in an incomplete backswing or follow-through and a wet ball. Swing back and through all the way and you have a much better chance of making solid contact.



My advise: Don’t believe all the shit above. Water hazard is considered a cursed and also a bread & butter for golfers. Even Ernie Els had drowned during the recent Honda Classic. If you really want to avoid the water hazard, pls sell your equipment and don’t play golf… otherwise bring extra golf ball… I mean extra used golf ball… ha! Ha! ha!
