Golf Swing Tips

For anyone who plays golf, improving one’s swing is one of the most important things to make sure that you can drive the ball as far and as straight as possible which as a result improves one’s overall score in a round of golf. Many people turn to golf swing tips which can help them to improve on their swing.

It is important to keep in mind that the length of the golf club means that the club itself should be doing the most work and your job is simply to guide and aim the club in the right direction as well as manner to ensure a good drive occurs. The whole process starts simply with the address or set-up right before you even swing. 

Make sure that your stance is fairly wide; but not too wide. Your stance should aid in the transfer of weight without the loss of balance throughout the entire swing. With the club in your hands and standing perpendicular to the ground and the ball being slightly to the front of the club head, you are ready to start the swing.

Make sure that when you are gripping the club that your hands are also relaxed, you want to make sure that you are really only holding onto the club just enough to prevent the club from flying out of your hands during the swing. 

With your golf swing triangle at the ready which is composed of your shoulders and the butt of the club making up the corners of the triangle, you are ready to start your backswing. Do not let your elbows bend for the most part of the back swing. As you bring the club back, you want to keep this triangle the same size and shape until your front arm is parallel with the ground. 

By the time your arm is parallel with the ground, your wrists should be bent slightly so as to allow the club to be once again perpendicular with the ground. On the start of the downswing, make like it is a race with against the butt and head of the club. For most of the race the butt of the club should be forward of the rest of the club, but at the last second, the head of the club breaks forward and beats the rest of the club to make contact with the ball. This results in the right contact with the ball that will send it soaring straight.
