Golf Tips for the First Tee:

Everyone wants to get off to good start and unfortunately this can lead to tension on the first tee. Ideally you will have been able to hit some balls before you go to the first tee to help you release some energy and get the feel for hitting the ball. However this is often not possible for the recreational golfer. At the very least take several vigorous swings after doing some warm up and stretching. Then after the vigorous swings let yourself relax for a couple of minutes to let the adrenalin die off. For more first tee warm-up tips click here.

The key once you are ready to get going is to make sure that you build confidence on the first tee by hitting a good shot.

 
Don't be afraid to be ultra conservative off the tee and use an iron if your chances of hitting a good cold shot with a wood is less than 50 %. You are much better off getting a bogie on the first hole than hitting your first shot terribly. Try to stay focussed on that first shot rather than thinking about what your round is going to be like.
