Simple Golf Swing Secrets
In preparation for my overseas game for Tuesday, was practicing yesterday a particular golf thought with a buddy of mine. It seems that my hand was placed a little too far from my body. Closer observation of the professionals, like Garcia and tiger, their hands are placed very close to their lower body.
tip #1:
I used to have a swing thought, that having the hands too close was incorrect. After having made this correction, I now bring my hands closer to my body, and not just for the short irons but for every club in the bag.
tip #2
During the take away, its also important to move the triangle formed by the left and right fore arms in one motion to the 2 o'clock or 8 o'clock position, depending from your point of view. Erine Els said the takeaway is all hands, while some people just move their entire chest to the right (if you're a right hander). To me, I think both work, so long as it is a 1 piece takeaway for the triangle formed by the left and right forearms.
tip #3
Its also important to note that the shaft of the club does not pass the toe line. this is the imaginary line drawn across the toes of the left and right foot.
one interesting point to note is that keeping the hand close to the body, does not mean that the club head will cross this toe line. Its a false golf thought I had, and hope if you're reading this, it will help you too.
Be sure to have a golf buddy take a video for you, and read lots of golf books because have the right golf thoughts mixed with your vides will produce you a beautiful and elegant golf swing!
