    Golf_island_logo_black_square The Grass is Greener...

    The Southeast is blessed with beautiful year-round weather. The hot, humid summers combined with mild winters, plenty of sunshine and moderate amounts of rainfall make it the perfect breeding ground for Bermuda grass. Bermuda grass is a warm seasonal perennial grass adapted to tropical and subtropical climates. It grows best under extended periods of high temperatures, mild winters and moderate to high rainfall. Many of the courses on Hilton Head Island and throughout the Lowcountry rely on Bermuda grass in both the fairways and on the greens.
    Harbour Town Golf Links, site of the annual Verizon Heritage on the PGA Tour, the highly-regarded Long Cove Golf Club, The Robert Trent Jones Course at Palmetto Dunes, Oyster Reef Golf Club and the Golf Club at Indigo Run are just a few of the courses using Bermuda.

    Golf_island_logo_black_square Is there a way to help me line my putter up to correctly?

    When putting a method that most tour players use is to pick an intermediate target on the green between your ball and the hole. This may be a spot on the green such as an old ball mark, difference in the color of the green or other small spots that stand out. The intermediate target will be the line that you want the ball to travel on based on how the putt breaks. Sometimes on longer putts you can pick two targets and play connect the dots when you putt. This should help you start the ball on line off the putter and you will find yourself making more putts.
