Golf fuel and hydration
Overall healthy nutrition is beneficial, but on-course eating is especially important.  During a 4-plus hour round fuel to the brain and body is depleted.

 It must be replenished in consistent, healthy ways to avoid spikes and then crashes in blood-sugar levels. Fluctuations in energy and focus can unconsciously diminish ability to make decisions and execute shots.

For example, a small change in body chemistry can negatively impact club path and resulting direction of your shot.  The average golf swing takes less than 2 seconds while average swing speed of a recreational player hitting a driver is 93 miles per hour.  If your mind and body aren’t in sync during that quick period of high-speed movement, your eye-hand coordination can lapse.  And when it does, just 2-degrees of clubface misalignment at impact sends a shot twenty yards offline.

healthy food
It’s all about using food and fluids to generate consistent levels of focus, eye-and-hand coordination, and overall performance!  Steady, properly sequenced food intake enables muscles to function freely.
