A Better Golf Swing Plus Faster Club Speed Equals Lower Golf Scores
Perfecting your golf swing is the most important ingredient to improving your overall golf game. If you ignore your swing, then you're finished before you start. Making your golf swing better starts and finishes with you. The conditioning of the muscles in specific parts of your body to correctly execute certain movements takes practice. Searching out good golf aids or instructors is important in figuring out where to start.
Going to the range and hitting more golf balls won't cut it. Hitting more balls may create additional bad behaviors and strengthen an improper swing. I found that the more buckets of balls I hit at the driving range the worse my swing and anger level became.
Grip, stance and posture - most pros call these the three pillars of a good golf swing. No matter how experienced you are, if you have trouble with your golf swing, chances are you are doing something wrong with your grip, stance or posture - or maybe all three.
Grip the club a little looser as this will also allow you to generate the most club head speed since you will also create the most lag. Lag refers to the size of the angle made by the club and your left hand during the downswing.
Addressing the ball will change under different circumstances. Whether the ball is teed up or in the fairway or in a bunker, adding more distance to your shots means less par and a better game. No one wants to end up in the rough or the sand every time they play.
The distance your ball travels is directly proportional to the club speed and a few other variables related to your swing such as balance and form. You don't have to be a John Daly to have significant impact on the golf ball. It's guaranteed that if you add speed to your swing, it translates into more distance for your golf ball.
What inhibits swing speed for most golfers? Most golfers grip the club too tightly resulting in less lag and slower club speed. In addition, incorrect swing technique and form contributes to slower swing speed.
Increasing your swing speed and you increase your distance. It does not matter how old you are or what your current skill level, increasing the power outputs of the body will enhance club head speed. Power outputs of the body can be improved through golf fitness exercises and proper technique.
All pro golfers know the how important proper golf swing technique is to attaining optimal speed and trajectory resulting in appreciable distance. Executing proper swing technique is critical for teeing off, pitching, chipping and even putting. Most serious golfers will pay or do whatever to gain 10 - 20 yards from their drives. The question remains whether these golfers are achieving the distance they hoped for? Just what are they doing to better their swing?
