why? don't do this
6) don't throw your club from loose grib
it should be a light but firm grip ... like holding the steering wheel when racing the Z
7) But pretend it's an egg
wut? the club? It's not an egg, it's a golf club ... swing it like one
8) curse at ball repeatedly
sure ... whatever floats your boat ... I prefer a sip of beer
9) Don't "pop-up" when striking the ball
excellent tip ... aka keep your head down
10) Don't forget stance
this one and your grip should be your very first thoughts when walking up to the ball... it's hard to be consistent if you don't approach the ball the exact same way every shot ... obviously slight variations in stance between clubs but generally you should be standing over the ball the same way for every shot on level ground
11) Not the car kind of stance
12) forward press on some clubs
no ... most people do this to account for other deficiencies in their swing; you don't want to perpetuate a bad habit
13) A or P wedge at 120 yards?
Depends on how well you hit your wedges ... probably a PW. But I know a couple guys that send their PW nearly 140 yds. I typically drop a club on closer shots to have a lighter swing and more control, so I often won't hit my PW much past 100 yds. I'd probably hit an easy 9 iron at 120 unless it were downwind or downhill.
14) screw it... 4 iron flop shot this bytch
I recommend a 68 degree wedge for flop shots ... I dropped one in from the sand from about 20 yds out for a birdie the last round I played
15) Man i'm hungry on the 9th hole
more beer and maybe a hot dog
16) taco hell maybe?
...
36) Pop left foot to pivot slightly
only do this if it's natural for you ... if it feels awkward it can throw off your swing
37) be sure to follow through
another big one

Here's a few comments
plus some tips I've picked up over the years and recently learned from my dad's pro
