Basic Tips For the Perfect Golf Swing

So your putting is perfect, and your short game the envy of your buddies? Only problem is they got to the green in 3, but it took you 5?

Sounds like you’re missing a decent swing in your golf bag!

The swing is fundamental to the game – if you don’t get how to swing a golf club right, you might as well give up the game. Check out professionals like Tiger Woods – he has as close to the perfect golf swing as you can get. It might look easy on TV, but that is far from the truth. In reality, it takes practice and a bit of science to improve your golf swing technique.

First, always keep your eye on the ball. You need to do this at all times during your swing. So many people look at it before they swing and then immediately look into the distance before they make contact with the ball – it’s an easy mistake to make.

Second, hip rotation is fundamental to getting the distance in your drive. This is often overlooked, but is such an easy one to fix you really should pay more attention.

Finally, follow through with your swing. This ensures the ball drops where you want it to.

If you check out the pros on TV, their swing is like a science. Their concentration, hips and follow through are seamless.

You might not make the PGA next season, but by following these simple steps, you will definitely see an improvement in your game.
