Help You to Swing

Golf swing is the key to a lifetime of enjoyment playing golf. However, 99 percent of golfers who play consistently do it because they have built a strong and consistent swing with the correct technique.

Make sure your left shoulder is facing the target. Your left foot needs to be directly under your left shoulder. Your feet should be shoulder-length apart and your knees should be flexed slightly. Play the ball midway between your front foot and your back foot.

Rotate your hips to the right (for a right-handed golfer) to get started.Your hips are the engine of the golf swing. Rotate them to the right and then let your hands and arms follow. Your backswing is completed when your hands and wrists have reached shoulder level.

After you have rotated your hips to the right on the backswing, rotate your hips back to the left to begin the downswing. Once again, your hands should follow. Your hips need to get all the way through the hitting zone before your hands come through the golf ball. Once your hips have cleared, your hands will come through with speed and purpose.

Your left hand will take the golf club into the ball and it is responsible for the accuracy of your shot and a good portion of the power. By snapping your wrist, you should be able to get an extra 15 to 20 yards every time you hit the ball off the tee or with a fairway wood or long iron.

Many high- and medium-handicap players don't finish their swing correctly. Instead of keeping their heads down all the way through contact and bringing the golf driver or any other clubs up to shoulder level, golfers are anxious to see the results of their swing and they pick their heads up and don't finish. Resist the urge to look at your shot before you finish.

Finishing the swing will give you a much better chance to have excellent results.
