Golf Swing Tips

Posted on 20 August 2008 by admin

Basic golf tips are very important because if you follow some basic tips you can strike heavy shots, hooks and slices easily. Instead of getting depressed and vowing to golf court that you’ll never come back, just follow and bring in practice few tips regarding golf swing and strive perfection in your golf swing.

Getting tips from a golf coach is a costly affair and you need heavy amounts to pay to coach. However you can get some very essential tips from here. Following are few tips which deal with fundamentals of golf swing.

The most important tip and the first thing to do is to maintain a square clubface. Square clubface helps the ball go straight and long. It’s easy to use and handle. To maintain a clubface square you should keep a steady golf swing plane. You should practice to bring the golf club right back and have a good follow through in the same plane.

Next thing after you learn to hit straight is timing. Timing is crucial in a golf swing. Your swing should be steady throughout the whole swing. You should never try to slow down or speed up in jerks. Your golf swing should be smooth.

Golf fitness is also very important. You should exercise daily and you should practice golf daily. Lack of practice and exercise can lead to shaky movements in your hands and then you’ll not be able to have a clean golf swing.

Hip rotation is very important in golf swing. You should see the hip rotation of professional players. You should see the difference is hip rotation in close and long range shots. Hip rotation is a primary factor in accuracy and distance of a shot.

Your style of gripping is also very important. It can play a crucial part in your game. Make sure that your grip is not rigid and is flexible. A rigid golf grip can hamper the quality of your shots and result in loose and vague golf swings. An effective way to determine whether you have a good grip is by playing golf for three hours and if you have sour hands and arms than you have a tight grip. So you should change your grip in such a way that your arms and hands get sour after playing golf.

Another important tip is practice. Only practice makes a man perfect and nothing else can replace it. You should practice hard. An important thing to remember while practicing is that you should overcome your faults. You should not practice faulty gameplay because if you’ll not realize your mistakes then you’ll be perfect in making mistakes. So, keep improving and realizing your mistakes.

Last thing is that you should never underestimate close shots. I have seen people practicing long shots for hours and they ignore the close range shots. You should never do that. Remember that close range shots need high accuracy. Therefore, you should devote equal time to both long and short range shots.
