What Everybody Wants To Know About How To Cultivate A Simple Golf Swing

By Wes Thomas


Are you frustrated by your golf swing? Would you like to have more accuracy or distance? A good golf swing isn't magic. It's just a matter of getting the different parts of the swing right. This may seem impossible at first and even experienced golfers will tell you that it's not easy to develop a simple golf swing. But it can be done with practice.

You will have to address a couple of things though to develop your best golf swing.

Where you put your feet is important. They should be about shoulder width apart with your right heel slightly behind your body. Your toes should be pointing just a little bit outward. Here we get into the matter of personal style. There is no absolutely perfect textbook placement for the feet. And it depends on which side you are addressing the ball and the type of terrain you are standing on.

To master the simple golf swing you need to allow your arms to relax and be sure that they are hanging naturally. Your elbows should be placed just slightly in front of you while you are holding the club. If your arms are too far away you aren't going to be able to hit the ball effectively.

When you grip the club, you will need to be sure that you are holding it firmly. This is just enough to ensure that you don't lose your grip when you swing, but not hard enough that you cannot pivot the club properly.

With this grip in place, you will want to line up your ball with the center of the club. Now, you will want to determine the direction you want the ball to go to. Once you have determined the target, you will align your club, ball and then target.

Slowly, take your swing back in a smooth movement. If you go back too quickly, you are going to see a drop in your accuracy. In turn, a sharp downswing is going to place you off balance. Instead, you will want to place your weight on your back foot. Now, follow through into the downswing and make the connection. Your shoulders should turn into the swing and then back into the opposite direction.

A simple golf swing is a matter of physical precision. It may look easy, but it's actually an athletic feat that must be studied and practiced to get it right. There are plenty of videos on the Internet that can help you with your golf swing, not to mention numerous profusely illustrated books on Amazon and other sites. Nevertheless, you should take at least a few lessons from a pro. There is no substitute for personal, real world training.
