Drive It Like Sam Snead

This average golfer played a round of golf today at Stone Hedge here in Pennsylvania. Stone Hedge is located near Tunkhannock, Pa. north of Scranton. The course has a beautiful setting in the Endless Mountains as it is known. In a future post, I’ll give your more details of the course. Although it is a nice course, I am spoiled by the great golf available in Pinehurst, North Carolina and I am looking forward to heading back there in late June. Getting off the tee as we all know sets you up for a good or bad hole every time and today I was fortunate to be getting off the tee quite well. I have always read with interest about Sam Snead and his thoughts on driving the ball. Here’s a nice video from the Golf Academy that talks about how Sam approached his drives. Happy golfing from this average golfer!
