Starting Your Downswing–the Moment of Truth
Friday, January 29th, 2010The most important split second in the golf swing is the transition from your backswing to the downswing. That’s the moment of truth.
When you hit from the top (rush your downswing), your power and timing are destroyed. You should strive for an ever-so-slight hesitation at the top of your backswing before you begin your downswing. That sounds easy. It isn’t.
Your best method to develop the needed timing during the transition from backswing to downswing is to practice hitting full shots on the driving range. This is a difficult concept to master and it will take a lot of practice and focus to find the rhythm and timing that’s right for you.
Just remember one thing: don’t try and hit it from the top of your backswing.
Golf tips from the tee
Wednesday, December 30th, 2009If you want to consistently put up your best possible scores, then you need to have all parts of your game right in tune. Too many players think that they can get away with not driving the ball well because they scramble well or they have a solid putting game. Think about what might be possible if you drove the ball at your best in addition to these things? Golf tips for tee shots are important and you need to listen.
The best golf tips for tee shots will tell you that it’s all about rhythm and keeping a level swing plane. If you go straight back with solid tempo and you come straight through the ball, you’re going to get results. All too often, players try to swing out of their shoes and they end up spraying the ball all over the course as a result of that.
