1 A Quick Putting Warmup on Fri Feb 26, 2010 12:55 pm

How many times have you gotten to the course with just a few minutes left til your tee time. You rush into pay, then if your lucky over to the range to
hit a few balls. Maybe, you go to the green for about two minutes, then race off to the tee.

That is no way to start a round of golf. But if you only have five minutes to warm up, oh well...

When you are pressed and only have a couple of minutes on the green, the first thing you have to do is realize that spending that time hitting as many putts as you can will only throw your rhythm off once you get on the course.

Instead, take your time and hit maybe just a few good putts, putting in maximum effort on each. Including a read of the putt. Hit them just as you would on the course. Go through your entire routine and establish a rhythm for the day before you even get to the first tee.

Over the course of a round, the vast majority of the putts you face will be less than twenty feet. You should keep your "warmup" putts within that distance as well.

You should hit some of them on a level part of the green, some uphill, and some downhill. Of course, if you have more time, use it for sure. But the main thing to keep in mind if you are pressed for time before teeing off is to work on establishing your putting rhythm with the precious time you do have.

The key when time is short is to slow down and make each warmup putt or shot on the range you do get to hit as useful as possible. You can do this
by working to establish your rhythm making a few quality golf shots instead of a bunch of miserable ones.

As you have said it is essential to warm up before a game of golf. Research has found that more than 10 minutes of putting, 10 minutes of chipping and 10 minutes on the range dramatically improves your chances of beating your handicap by 40%. So arrive at your golf club 45 minutes earlier and practice before your round.

* Is your sleeping bag rated for the temperatures you're experiencing? Try adding a liner to get another 10* protection.
* Is the sleeping bag dry? Hint: don't bury your face in the sleeping bag, because the moisture from your breath will make the insulation damp and reduce its effectiveness. Unzip and air-out your bag every morning before packing.
* Is your head well covered, either by the hood of your mummy bag or a scarf and pullover cap?
* Do you have a good pad? An Exped DownMat has an R-Value of 9 (and is comfy).
* Are YOU dry when you get into the sleeping bag? Exertion causes perspiration that will be retained by your underwear, base layer, clothing. I suggest changing into dry clothes immediately before going to sleep, and let the clothing you took off air out to dry before packing away for the next night.
