Your Golf Swing: The Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow

Ah, the perfect swing. A really big dream of yours, right? A truly difficult proposition, so much so that you may just feel like giving it up altogether. But if you can admit that you have a problem, perhaps you can also work on overcoming it.

All the excuses in the world are out there; and you have had your fair share, right? If it's not the course, it's the weather. If it's not the caddy, it's your clubs. But if you can admit that these excuses are but excuses, and that the flaw may be in you, why, then you have a chance at that "perfect" swing after all.

There is not end to what's available out there to help you with your golf swing. What are you looking for? Something that can tell you whether your wrist is in the proper place? Or your whole move through the swing is right? The aids for training out there can help you with everything or anything you may need help with. Your stance isn't right? There's help for that as well. There are lots of products that can push you towards that elusive goal of the perfect swing.

Let's say your game is sick and it needs medications to get well. You know, of course, that when you are sick you can't just go and buy anything and everything in sight in your favorite drug store. That's not the way to go. You need to look at your symptoms, and get what will work on those. When it's your swing that's "sick," you need to know just what's wrong with it, so you may get the right medicine for it.

There is just one, and only one, sure way to know why your swing is "sick." And that's to know what a truly healthy swing is really like. And, guess what, there are sources for this for you:

* Record a pro on your TV and analyze what they do
* Buy an instructional video that shows all the key components of the perfect golf swing
* Go to a golf pro and have them analyze your swing to see what you are doing wrong
* With a digital recorder you can get software for your computer that can analyze footage of your golf swing and tell you exactly what you are doing wrong

Once you know just what it is that's keeping you from that perfect swing, you can start working on your problem. You may still wish to purchase things like training aids to add to your arsenal of tools to see just how far towards perfection you may go.
