Tips to improve your golfing style when playing golf in Pollensa
Playing golf in Pollensa can make you lose yourself in the beautiful scenery of the Tramuntana mountains in the background, but that's a gift after all. So, we advise you to always make your stops to enjoy the views, but during the course of the game it is advisable to follow these tips:
- Always think positive. If you believe in yourself, everything will go well. When you hit the ball, concentrate on thinking about where you want it to stop and mentally visualise the course.
- Sign up for golf lessons. Without a doubt, having an expert in this sport by your side will help you learn the best techniques and correct your bad habits when it comes to swinging the club. On the other hand, the teacher will teach you different methods to avoid the different water and land obstacles that may be on the course.
- Analyse the game for each hole and create a strategy according to the situation.
- Familiarise yourself with the swing movements you will need for each shot. Practice and consistency will get you a little better every day and you will learn to hit the ball with your muscles relaxed and your body position correct.
- Use a club adapted to your needs. Think not only about the length of the club, but also about other elements such as the height of the grass or obstacles in the playing area.
- Don't try to win the battle against the wind and counteract its force, because it's impossible. On the contrary, you should use it to slide the ball.
- There are many books, magazines and internet articles dedicated to this sport. Take advantage of your free time to read about how to improve your putt on the green or how to adjust your pitch.
In conclusion, playing golf in Mallorca has the advantage of combining sport and nature in the same space.

If you like to practice golf in Mallorca, we'll give you some recommendations so you can enjoy this sport to the fullest.At Golf Pollença (north of the island) we encourage you to pay attention to these tips and put them into practice.Take note and vibrate with golf in Mallorca (near Pollensa Bay)Here are some indications that will come in handy so you don't despair on the green. Pay attention.-Not having warmed up enoughAlthough it may seem to you that it's not as necessary as in other more intense sports, it's key to start off on the right foot. The same as practicing with some balls. For example, professional golfers begin to warm up an hour and a half before playing. And they do, among other things, with elastic bands in the gym. Remember, on the other hand, that warming up is not equivalent to those stretches that we recommend for you after your sports session.-Not having a clear game strategyIt's very important to be clear about the way you play before you start. If you want to remedy a habitual failure of those who aren't great strategists, shot to the green and not to the flag from the rough.-Make excusesFor example, if you play in our club, near the bay of Pollensa and the Serra de Tramuntana, never blame wind or rain. Turn around these excuses and think about how you can use these conditions against other players.-Choose the stableford formatInstead, we recommend the medal. Consider that all hits will count.In short, if you want golf to compensate you, apply these tips and don't improvise.

After completing some golf holes in Mallorca you have to take care of your equipment. Sticks and balls will take most care, but you should also pay attention to clothes and shoes. This will ensure that everything is in perfect condition when you come back to play golf in Pollensa. But we warn you that the maintenance of the golf equipment starts already in the field itself.Maintenance of golf equipment: clubs and ballsA golfer who uses specific bags for clubs shows that he knows how to protect them. If you do, you'll avoid rubbing each other and consequent damage.Woods and putters should always be in their sheath to avoid cracks.Keep the clubhead clean, preventing grass or mud from accumulating on stretch marks. Dry the sticks after each game, especially if it has rained, and clean the grip every 4 or 5 games so that the handle is always as new.As for the balls, they should be cleaned every few holes and when they are dirty with mud at the beginning of the hole. After a game, you can wash them with soap and warm water without fear of damaging them.The golf cart is also included in the maintenance of the golf equipment. We suggest you to clean and oil it periodically; If it's electric, charge it only when necessary.Other maintenance of golf equipment: clothingTry not to store wet clothes in the bag to prevent the clothes or the bag from rotting.Clean the shoes after each game, especially if they have been wet. If you lose a nail or it has worn out, just change it.Finally, we recommend that you keep your gloves stretched and dry when they are wet. If it rains while you play golf in Mallorca, change the leather ones to synthetic ones.
