Hugh plays public courses with a mid-teens handicap and writes golf guides for beginners who want fewer blow-up holes, not tour swings.

How articles get written

Every guide on The Fairway Primer starts with a real question readers ask about golf for beginners — grip, stance, swing basics, rules, etiquette, choosing clubs, short game, putting, and course management. Drafts are researched against reputable sources, edited for clarity, and updated when best practices change. Nothing is published to fill space: if a topic doesn't deserve a full answer, it doesn't get an article.
