Practice With Purpose<br />
By: Mike Landry / Golf Fore Ever<br />
When you practice, do it with a purpose.<br />
What do I mean?<br />
Since I play golf once or twice each week and<br />
practice 3-5 times per week, I have the opportunity to watch golfers<br />
on the range. I see them with huge buckets of balls hitting one golf<br />
ball after another without taking the time to line up or make any<br />
adjustments.<br />
In my opinion, this is a waste of time. If a golfer is hitting 20 balls<br />
before the start of his round, that’s not a problem as they are simply<br />
loosening up.<br />
Driving Range - I think golfers should have a plan and know what<br />
they are going to work on before getting to the range. Maybe it’s a drill<br />
from a coach during a recent lesson or a YouTube video but whatever it<br />
is, make sure you practice with a purpose.<br />
If its alignment, step back and make sure you are lined up properly<br />
with your target using alignment tools. Check your position after each<br />
ball.<br />
If it’s your follow through or balance that’s causing issues, study your<br />
finish. Take time between each golf ball to analyze how you did and<br />
make corrections along the way.<br />
Chipping – Same thing applies. Don’t just pitch 100 balls from 30<br />
yards and call it good. If you have a weakness in your short game, work<br />
on that and improve by trying different things.<br />
Practice pitching to a tight pin over a bunker or practice pitching<br />
out of divots. Work on different angles and different grass thicknesses.<br />
Practicing these shots will boost your confidence next time you’re on<br />
the golf course.<br />
Putting – Practice with a purpose by figuring out how to read each<br />
putt. Practice putting to the high side of the hole, so you don’t miss<br />
your putts to the low side. Practice your speed, alignment, short and<br />
long putts.<br />
While practice may not guaranty perfect shots every time, it will<br />
improve your confidence on the golf course and that’s so important to<br />
playing better golf, and a major factor in lowering your scores.<br />

Various Psychic Abilities<br />
By: Ali Guggenheim / Psychic Phenomenon<br />
Most people have a tendency to lump all<br />
psychics into the same category. The word<br />
Psychic tends to trigger visions of a woman gazing<br />
into a crystal ball, palm reading, or card reading.<br />
However, the majority would be surprised to learn that there’s quite<br />
a variety of different types of psychic powers and different applicable<br />
purposes for each.<br />
Different psychics receive intuitive guidance in different ways - much<br />
like an invitation that can be delivered by mail, via the internet, by<br />
phone, etc. Though, some psychics may only receive information by<br />
one form of delivery, others may receive transmissions by multiple<br />
means.<br />
The following are some minimized descriptions of different types of<br />
psychic transmissions, some more common than others, described by<br />
“The Guide to Psychic Abilities.”<br />
