SPORT Everything you need to start your golf season in style !

Equipment, training and preparation: here's everything you need to know to ensure your golf season runs smoothly.

Being a sensation on the golf course is more than just having the right technique: a good season starts before you set foot on the fairway. From equipment selection to physical and mental preparation, here’s everything you need to know to get your golf season off to a good start. 

Equipment for every level

A good season starts with good equipment. And this obviously varies according to skill level. Beginners can opt for a versatile set that includes a driver, woods, irons, wedge and putter. More experienced players, on the other hand, can be tempted by specific clubs chosen according to their needs or the skills they want to improve. 

 

When it comes to style – and no matter what your level this time – we can’t recommend enough the Malbon clothing brand, which advocates a (more than successful) fusion between the elegance of golf and the audacity of urban culture. An identity that has led to a collaboration between the brand and TAG Heuer.

If you read our last article on the evolution of fashion on the golf greens, you’ll know that the connected watch is now one of golfers’ favorite accessories. Beyond its sporty design, the TAG Heuer x Malbon connected watch is a technological jewel that will make you stand out on the green.   

And it’s not the only watch that will let you do that. With its new algorithms, the 42 mm TAG Heuer Connected Golf Edition offers golfers unprecedented advantages for an exceptional playing experience.

Prepare yourself meticulously

Golf is a demanding sport, requiring strength, flexibility and concentration. Before the start of the season, take the time to improve your physical condition. How can you do this? Simple muscle-strengthening and stretching exercises can upgrade your game to the next level. Don’t underestimate the importance of mental preparation either. Relaxation and visualization exercises can help you stay focused on the green, even in the most stressful tournament situations.

Review the rules before the start of the season

Before you hit the greens, take the time to review the basic rules of golf. Make sure you know the priority rules, lost ball procedures and penalties for common infractions. Always remember to respect good manners when it comes to golf. Pay attention to other players and respect the course. 

 

Set yourself realistic goals, taking into account your current level of play and the time you can devote to practice. You can then draw up a training and competition program that will enable you to achieve these goals and excel fully. Don’t forget to include rest periods to avoid overwork and injury. 

Practice and… practice

Practice is the key to success on the golf course. Take every opportunity to practice, whether on the driving range or on the course itself. Work on different aspects of your game, from swinging to putting to short game. Don’t be afraid to experiment with new techniques and strategies to improve your performance.

 

Getting your golf season off to a good start requires preparation, determination and discipline. By choosing the right equipment, preparing yourself physically and mentally – in short, by planning your season carefully, training regularly and staying focused during your tournaments – you’ll put all the chances on your side to achieve your goals and enjoy a memorable golf season.
