ok, so I've been observing Sweetgum (Exec course) players for a few months now. Aside from all the tips noted above, here's my two cents worth to immediately improve every newbie golfer out there:
A. Tuck your golf shirt in your pants. (some of you guys look like you just got off the train)
B. Take a (real) practice stroke. (no fakes)
You may not score any better, but you will look better trying :-)
No charge.
