Tips to Improve your Golf Swing
This interesting article addresses some of the key issues
regarding a golf swing. A careful reading of this material could
make a big difference in how you think about a golf swing.
Believe it or not, when one performs a golf back swing, it is
not just your arms. It is also more about the golfer's back as
it turns away from the target. The club is more so as being put
behind the golfer's back than it is swung up towards the air.
The move backswing
If you look at it closely, the golf back swing actually works
from up to down. The takeaway back swing begins from the top as
you make the movement on your arms and follows as you do that
turn on your shoulders. The movement then goes straight down
towards the legs and the hips.
The golf back swing is primarily about how the body is being
coiled upwards thus creating the needed tension in the muscles
as well as torque to be able to let out that all powerful
downswing. Particularly, that swing is created anywhere in
between the golfer's turning his or her upper body as well as
shoulders and the turning - to a lesser degree - the lower body
and the hips.
Relax
It is highly advisable that one should not do the swing in a
hurried manner. If a back swing is in any way done in a hurry,
the downswing does not become fast, actually it could do the
opposite.
The information about golf swing presented here will do one of
two things: either it will reinforce what you know about golf
swing or it will teach you something new. Both are good
outcomes.
The backswing speed should be in a tempo that is steady and
should neither be fast nor slow. Although some golfers have that
tendency to go way faster than the regular. Anytime you catch or
are aware of yourself doing this, try to slow it down a bit.
The move downswing
When you reach the downswing, all you really need to do is to
just let it go. Let the downswing happen. However, this only
applies if ever you were able to start with a golf stance,
backswing and grip that is correct.
The downswing must be the organic result of all that went before
it. If you were able to do your backswing in the correct manner,
your body will unwind in itself thus releasing the club and
striking the ball that will therefore result in a follow through
that is balanced.
The follow-through move
A follow-through should be best seen as the feather in your cap
move. The legs must be adequately straight and the hips have to
form a straight line together with the legs.
This move will serve as the gauge of the whole swing you have
just done. You know that you were able to pull a swing that is
smooth and balanced if in the end you have a position that looks
like the letter C only in reverse.
If you've picked some pointers about a golf swing that you can
put into action, then by all means, do so. You won't really be
able to gain any benefits from your new golf swing knowledge if
you don't use it.
