When seeing the pros play golf, it seems that all their swings are effortless and just comes automatic
. The fact is that you will be also able to do exactly what they are doing by understanding the step by step golf swing. Below are the basic things to learn to improve the level of your game.
First you must have the proper address. This is the position you make before unleashing your swing. Avoid hunching over the ball. The correct way to address yourself is to open your eyes and keep your head up. Keep your head steady and keep your shoulders loose and swivel easily. Now you proceed to the takeaway. This is when you start to wind up to make your swing. As you wind up to make the shot, try to swing back your arms shoulders, back, and hips in one fluid motion. Remember not to rush your swing. Do it in a slow and steady fashion.
After that you go into the backswing. This is the second part of the takeaway and also the part where your shoulders come into play. Try to imagine yourself like a spring coiling back. As you release, the natural swinging motion of your arms should be kept. Try to turn your back and keep your shoulders square, and put most of your body weight on your back foot.
Now prepare for the impact. As you release your swing do not hesitate. This is what most beginners do and it is wrong. Imagine you are a whip, making a fluid smooth motion yet pack a great force in the end. Then you do the follow through. After the swing, imagine throwing the club at the target facing towards it. Do it smoothly and maintain your balance.
Now you know the step by step golf swing all you need is to practice it. Always remember that practice makes perfect.
