Your All Inclusive Golf Vacation

Here are the motions of a full golf swing path from beginning to actual ball impact

Phase 1: You can incorporate these tips in your golf swing drills. Align yourself perfectly with the flag. Be sure that there are no pebbles, twigs or anything that may alter your shot and take the ball of it’s desired path. Put yourself directly parallel to the line as this is very crucial to beginning the perfect golf swing with the optimal chance of success. Not taking these preliminary preparations will without a doubt limit if not completely ruin your golf swing path early on.

Phase 2: Place your hands in the correct positioning. Rest the head of the golf club close to the ball’s backside as close as possible with out moving the ball. Make sure to have the club held in your left hand with your fingers draped over the top. This is the standard way although there are many that prefer using the right hand. Hold the golf club in its place so that there is virtually no movement. But make sure it is a relaxed grip.

Phase 3: Hold it properly using your left hand. Grip the club with your right hand just above the your left thumb to start off a correct golf swing path.

Phase 4: Finding the correct golf swing grip for you. This is a very important step here in terms of golf swing instruction. The most popular grip that is used is the overlapping grip. It is basically putting you right pinky finger right in the middle of your left hand’s pointer and middle fingers. I do not know about you guys but I prefer the interlocking grip. This is where your right pinky and your left pointer are locked with one another. This is the the style that is used for those who have medium to small sized hands. The point is I have small hands and this grip serves anyone with tiny hands.

Phase 5: Correct Stance
The main goal here is obviously balance which is key to a golf swing path for again obvious reasons.
Make sure to keep your feet shoulder width apart and place your body in line with your swing direction Put your right foot forward about one foot from your body. This stance will enable you to use your weight as leverage to carry out the full golf swing. Afterwards, turn the left foot slightly in the outer direction as it gives you an opening to carry out your final phase of the correct golf swing path. Lean your torso just a bit. One of the biggest and most common mistakes in a golf swing is bending froward too far. It feels natural at first just to bend forward but with practice it will come together for you. Next your legs should be slightly bent and your hands straight in front of you elbows locked but relaxed. Place about a good amount of your weight on the balls of your feet.

Phase 6: Starting the actual swing. The whole thing that you want to think about here is full body rotation. No need to place emphasis on the arms as they will go along for the ride so what you should be mindful of is using you upper body as a whole and turning. Keep your body loose and do not tighten up so this can be a fluid movement.
Use this rotation for all back golf swing techniques. At this point all parts of your body move coordinated and in unison.
Now you do the down swing by moving the weight to the left leg. During this movement your arms and hands will be carried along to impact the golf ball and do not forget to continue the entire motion sustaining your form until the ball’s descent.
Use this quick golf swing guide and it will enable you to achieve a perfect golf swing.
