Master Your Golf Swing

The swing, as the word implies, is the continuous action which allows you, the beginner golfer to create momentum, speed and accuracy which can be delivered, via the club head to the ball. The golf swing is not a hit, lunge or a bash - it is a very graceful movement which is designed to create the maximum club head speed in a balanced rhythmic manner. Control is the essence of good golf and your tempo largely determines the measure of control you achieve. The pace of swing at which you generate club head speed under control is the tempo best suited to you. You should swing only as fast or with as much effort as your hands and arms can control the club head comfortably.

Most players tend to equate distance with effort, but nothing could be further from the truth. Top class players hit the ball a long way without any apparent effort. This is because all the energy is transmitted to the club head, and they know that bodily effort has an adverse effect on the swing.

The purpose of the backswing is no more and no less than to put the player in a position to make the downswing. Most golfers take the club back (as opposed to swinging it back) too quickly, chiefly because they feel the faster they go back, the more club head speed is generated on the way down. This is fallacy. An over-fast backswing is usually the result of too much tension at address.

When a swing breaks down, more often than not it is at the point when the swinging direction is changing from going back to coming down. This is caused mainly by an over-fast back-swing, but also by an uncontrollable urge to hit the ball instead of swing through it. The remedy is simple, a golf club should not only be swung back leisurely, and it should be swung down leisurely.
