here's no better time than the beginning of a
new year to get a fresh start and make some
changes in your life. While many New Year's
resolutions revolve around diet, exercise
and other self-improvement
goals, golfers are more likely
to resolve to play more

tion at McDowell Mountain Golf Club in Scottsdale,
Arizona, any resolution that focuses on improving
your swing and your enjoyment of the game is a

Tour professional and three-time Junior World
champion was named last fall to Golf Digest's list
of Best Young Teachers in America, and currently
instructs players from the PGA and LPGA tours,
to top junior players and weekend golfers.

resolutions for golfers. Here's what we learned:
