Red Arrow Markers is more than just a ball marker, it helps align the ball to the hole is one of many features. Using the Red Arrow to mark the place of the ball helps reduce penalty strokes when not replacing the ball back in the same spot. The long Red Arrow lets you visualize the line from the marker to the hole easier and improve green reading skills. The horizontal line isn't just for looks, it helps you read the slope or angle of the green. No matter what size marker you play with make Red Arrow Markers the one for you!

I went to Professional Golfers Career College and became a golf instructor at two different courses. I have done research on aids and devices to help golfers and also learned from other golf instructors what they use and what works. Sometimes the most simple of aid works the best. 

2 lasers attached to the ends of a pole will help with your swing plane. By pointing one end of the laser at the base of a wall and taking a back swing keeping the laser on the line between the wall and the floor. Once you get half way switch to point the other end of the laser at the same line. Then repeat going through your down swing. I have used this device to helps kids learn the proper swing plane and to teach adults what the swing plane should feel like.

The next aid is putting aids and lines. Using lines on the golf ball and putter has only increased in popularity and actually works. By using a line on your marker is simple the next step toward better putting. If the ball is not aligned properly then you give your self no chance of making a putt no matter how perfect your stroke is. Look for Red Arrow Markers at a course near you or pick one up online.]]><![CDATA[Weekend Review]]>Mon, 11 Aug 2014 22:29:13 GMThttp://redarrowmarkers.com/blog/weekend-reviewCould this be a end to Tiger's era and the start of Rory's? We have seen this before when Tiger started to not win as much with other golfers. Rory has been the only one to win more than everyone else so far and therefore at least gets a mention for being a upcoming star. This past weekend has shown Rory being able to stay mentally strong and with more distance off the Tee he is starting to look like Tiger. Being able to hit the ball further and more often then everyone else leads to wins. Rory's putting has been a great advantage to sinking those longer birdie putts like he did on Sunday. He had it all this past weekend, long drives, close approach shots and making putts along with losing strokes and making bogeys. To say this is a start of the Rory era is not wrong however is Tiger really done? Is there anyone else who can challenge Rory's 4 majors. 

In the past there has always been 2 top contenders every weekend and at least 1 other staying close to them. These top players in each era were also close and similar to age which leaves Rory at #1 and who would be his rival? My guess is Rickie Fowler the native from California. He has finished top 5 in every major this year but has not won, sounds like Phil to me. Then there is the close third top player which is anyones spot to grab. 

Tiger, Rory, Phil, Rickie the best players right now in golf and most exciting. ]]><![CDATA[My take on Tiger W.]]>Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:55:39 GMThttp://redarrowmarkers.com/blog/my-take-on-tiger-wI grew up watching Tiger Woods dominate on the course and knowing every time that he played he was a sure bet on winning. He would hit the ball further and sink more putts from longer distances helping him do this was spending time in the gym. Tiger led the way for golfers now on how to succeed not only in golf but other sports as well. He was doing something no one else on tour was doing and that is why he was so dominate. Now that he is older and has gone through tough times he isn't the same Tiger I knew growing up.

Tiger Woods is no longer the longest off the tee box and no longer the best at making long range putts. This is a huge factor in winning and staying dominant. Add this to his personal problems and you have Tiger 2.0 this guy we don't even know if he will make the cut or win. Don't even mention trying to get another major let alone make sure he is healthy. I am still a big fan of Tiger and I do have other favorites now as well but I believe Tiger can beat Jack's records, the question is when?]]><![CDATA[Physical Fitness in Golf]]>Tue, 05 Aug 2014 18:41:24 GMThttp://redarrowmarkers.com/blog/physical-fitness-in-golfStretching and warming up before a round of golf will not only help during the round but also after. Getting loose and warmed up will help you recover faster and able to keep playing. Tiger Woods has had a lot of recent problems with his health physically and he works out and stretches. Most average players do not work out so it is even more critical for golfers to stretch.

Before hitting golfs balls make sure you stretch your back very well and loosen up your shoulders and arms. There are plenty of stretches you can find specifically for golf online. Here is a great video and website for you to look at.  PGA Golf Stretches. Try this and if it helped please leave a comment below.

After you mark your ball focus on the line from the Red Arrow to the hole and walk all the way around the hole to get a better read of the green. You will see a better line and slope if any by walking all the way around the hole. When you are ready re aim the ball and marker to the line and make any final adjustments. Important: Keep your eyes above the ball in order to best visualize the line. Keep this specific routine every time you mark your ball and you will see lower scores and fewer putts. Your Welcome.]]><![CDATA[Now on Pinterest]]>Tue, 15 Jul 2014 20:32:23 GMThttp://redarrowmarkers.com/blog/now-on-pinterest
