You Are Only as Good as Your Personal Golf Swing
from:Having just watched the fantastic finale to the British open
golf championship I was pondering the fact that the swings of
Padraig Harrington and Greg Norman are so different and yet they
both work very well.
The 2 swings suit the players very well but how do they end up
using the same sort of clubs so differently? Your golf clubs
must suit you and you have to use them in a way that gets the
ball flying in the way you want.
To develop your personal golf swing you need to forget much of
the conventional wisdom that the professionals talk about. They
have access to professional golf coaches and play everyday. The
hints and tips they are looking at are about changing tiny
elements of an already successful golf swing.
You need to consider the big picture with your personal golf
swing and not tinker with little details. Once you have achieved
a regular movement that you can repeat then you can start
looking at the details. So do you know what your swing is like?
Have a look at your swing
Most golf schools and coaches video your swing to show you what
you are doing. You can also analyse your swing and look for ways
to improve it. When I saw what I was doing I was very surprised
at what I was doing. I thought I was the new Tiger Woods but I
was more like Happy Gilmour on a bad day
For the amateur these are the main aspects you need to focus on
to achieve a decent personal golf swing.
Make sure your swing is smooth. Jerky movements will throw you
off balance and these types of swings are not repeatable. It is
much better to slow down your swing speed and get a flowing
movement rather than have a fast and lumpy one.
Slow it down and reduce it. Nearly all amateurs try to force the
club through. They do a full back swing and follow through just
like they have seen their favourite golfer do. But because you
do not play regularly you cannot hit consistently with this type
of forced swing. Reduce the backswing and the follow through and
focus on good balance and ball contact.
Do not hold the club so hard. You do need to hold it firmly but
not like you are in a tug of war match. Combine a lighter grip
with the other 2 steps and you should have a more accurate and
relaxed swing.
The point of these 3 tips is to try and achieve a clean and
consistent contact between your golf club and the ball. When you
are tense and nervous you will not hit the ball well.
Once you have hit a few thousand balls on the range you can then
look at other problems with your swing such as body alignment
and the type of clubs you use.
Did you know that nearly all golf clubs will work with your
swing? Yes there are some that will make marginal improvements
to distance and line but any modern set of clubs will hit the
ball well for you and your personal golf swing.
