The Simple Golf Swing

Golf is a very complex sport that normally takes years and years of practice to master. Even with a large amount of practice and playing time, most golfers will remain average and the constant challenge is what is so appealing to many people. There are many golf swing faults that are typical to average golfers and with those faults come some fairly simple fixes. The key to fixing these swing flaws is to make the corrections out on the course and not just on the driving range. Many golfers tend to spend hours on the range hitting perfect shots only to go out on the course and make the same mistakes they have always made.

One of the biggest mistakes that people make on the golf course is how they set up their hands on the club. Most golf experts would agree that having a grip where the fingers interlock is the best way to go. This keeps the hands together through the swing and prevents any twisting which is one of the most common golf swing faults. When you are setting up with a good grip, the thumb and pointer finger of each hand should form a V that points at your strong side shoulder which would be the right shoulder for most golfers. Another key to a good grip is to grip the club firmly enough to hang on, but not so tight that you have white knuckles.

The hands also play a critical factor in finishing the swing. One of the very common golf swing faults that most amateurs have is getting their arms and body out in front of their hands on the down swing which causes a slice. Other golfers have the opposite problem where they rotate their hands too far to the left and hook the ball. For the best results, you want to take the club back with a good rhythm and follow through with the hands in the same position they started in. Your hands should also guide the club through impact and up on the follow through.

One of the final golf swing faults that many people face is the mental challenge of the game. This can get in the way of making a great swing more than anything else on the course. When golfers are facing a tough shot over water or a dogleg off the tee, they start thinking about all the places their ball shouldn't go, rather than where they want it to go. The key to scoring low in this great game is to make the same consistent swing no matter what is in front of you. Blocking out any hazards or obstacles takes great mental focus, and can be the difference in shooting great scores.

The dreaded banana slice is a golfer's worst enemy. Many average golfers struggle with this shot because it is a natural way to miss the golf ball when making a swing. One common cause of the golf swing slice is swinging too hard. When most golfers step up to the tee box, the only thing on their mind is how far they are going to hit the ball. A better way to view the tee shot would be to look for where you are going to have the best second shot. This does not always have to be a position of distance. The reason that swinging too hard causes the slice is because the golfer's hands get way out in front of his body and the club face is kept open at impact.

As a general rule, the longer the club you are using to hit the ball, the better chance you have of making a golf swing slice. On shorter iron shots, it is easier to control the ball and hit it straight. This is also the case with longer irons when compared to a driver. That is why many average golfers choose to tee off with a long iron, hybrid club or a fairway wood to avoid hitting a big slice. Sacrificing some yards in distance to keep the ball in play is well worth it.

While hitting long irons or fairway woods can be a temporary fix for the golf swing slice, there still needs to be a more permanent solution. As mentioned earlier, slowing down the golf swing and having a good balance and tempo can fix a lot of problems. Another good thing to try if you are struggling with a slice is to look at your grip. Many people have too weak of a grip on the club and that promotes the slice. Taking a stronger grip by turning your left hand clockwise will help square the club at impact. When you look down at your grip, you should be able to see two or three knuckles on the left hand.

Golf is a game that requires patience, control and good course management. If you struggle with a golf swing slice, take some time to put the tips mentioned above into practice.

The only real cure for the dreaded slice is to practice with The Simple Golf Swing program and maintain a good amount of focus once you are out on the course.
