How To Swing A Golf Club

Whole books have been written about how to swing a golf club and with very good reason because the golf swing is very much at the heart of your game. You can kit yourself out with the very latest golf equipment, learn the rules of the game, study the world's best golfers in action and step out onto the first tee but, if you don't know how to swing a golf club correctly then you're going to spend a lot of your time in the rough or out of bounds.

Our aim here therefore is to take you through the golf swing step by step in every situation you can imagine from driving off the first tee to sinking that final putt on the eighteenth.

We'll look at everything from the biomechanics of the golf swing so that you learn to make the very best possible use of your body to control such things as the direction and speed of your swing to control not only the flight of your ball but also things like the amount of backspin required for certain shots.

Our aim here is to cover everything from your stance, address and grip through the various different stages of your swing so that you hit the ball and not the ground. We'll look at driving, chips shots, putting and more and steer you clear of the dreaded hook shot and stop you from slicing the ball or hitting those all too common skied shots. We'll also take you through the basics of getting yourself out of difficult situation so that you can get out of the trees and bushes and back onto the fairway.

Learning how to swing a golf club is the key to your success on the course and we'll try to take you by the hand and lead you through your golf swing step by step.
