Put Away All Your Golf Swing Tips: Start Here

Golf Swing Tips


No matter if just begun to learn the game of golf, or if you're a seasoned pro, you're bound to have a whole arsenal of golf swing tips that swirl around your brain on any given golf day.  Let's put all those golf swing tips away just for now and get down to basics.

Where is your focus when hitting a golf ball?  I know the answer is simple.  The golf ball, right?  But a lot of golfers let their focus wander. That wandering might be to the club and back to the ball.  Or, it may include a quick check of your alignment.  Big mistake.

There is also the tendency to loose focus when drawing the club head back.  Watch next time out and see if you do this.  If so, remind yourself to hold the head steady: complete attention/focus on the golf ball.

When working on the backswing, many golfers pick up the bad habit of turning the head (and thus eyes) to get some feedback on the position of the club head and hands.  Red Lights Flashing!!! Avoid this or you'll never become a consistent golfer.

Now technically keeping a still head throughout the golf swing is an impossiblity; the head will naturally move within the confines a smooth, unifed golf swing.  But make it goal to keep the head steady and your focus upon the golf ball.

I have a trick I picked up from Tim Gallwey that helps me keep my head still and smooth throught my swing:  I softly hum.  I know it sounds nuts, but give it try.  It helps prevent tension and jerking the golf club through the swing: thus a steadier head and a more consistent swing.

If you're at all passionate about the game of golf, I know you're inunated with a ton of golf swing tips.  But start with this simple one (and proceed from there): head still, eyes on the golf ball.
