The Quarry One Minute Clinic #1

The Quarry is here to help you improve your golf game (as well as provide you with entertainment, beautiful banquet facilities & casual dining). 

So every week be on the look out for advice from The Quarry with tips and tricks to improve your game. Tips are provided by our very own Head Golf Professional, Sean Etheredge, PGA.

This Week's Tip:
It's a scorcher out there! Make sure you are being safe while enduring the last few weeks of the hottest days of summer. Two great ways to keep your game on point while giving a nod to your health are:

1) controlling your body temp
2) staying hydrated

Don't wait until the third hole to start drinking water; by then it's too late. Try this: I pop two Nuun tabs in a water bottle and start drinking it a couple of hours before. If it's really hot, I sometimes use a couple more tabs during the round to stay ahead of the heat. They are great; like sugar-free Gatorade, so no crash!

Also, use plenty of sunscreen and a chilled Frog Togg towel to cool off your head and neck between shots.
In addition to making you feel cooler, it might even make the bad shots feel less painful.

You can check out the Pro Shop for these beat the heat products and more. Stay hydrated!
