Improving Your Golf Swing

Improving one's golf swing is very hard to achieve. When you want to hit a ball with a 1-inch square sweet spot in the clubface, but ended up going the wrong way, then you may have a major problem regarding your swing. To get this dilemma fixed, try being in control of the club. When you say you're in control, this means you move your muscle and loosen up that tension in your body.

However, someone said that controlling your club is not a good way to solve your tension problems. Here's what Jim McLean wrote in his book, The Eight-Step Swing:

"To gain control of your shots, you must give up control of your swing."

To be in control of your game, one must be comfortable to make that full swing. And to do that, you have to get to know your club more. Have a mental idea on where the clubhead is. When you hold the club, feel it as if it's a rock on the end of a string. Loosen up your body and take time to relax, before you hit the ball. Make your grip soft; so soft that you can still be able to use the backswing.

If you want to know more about soft grips, watch movies of Bobby Jones and Julius Boros. Learn their methods and how they achieved that certain grip. If you noticed, they start it off their backswings by moving their heads; but their clubheads do not move until their hands moved around six inches.

Relax your body as much as you can. Keep it up throughout your game. If your abdominal muscles are stiff, try to loosen up; the rest of your body will follow through: from your shoulders to your hands. Soon, you won't make a single mistake about getting over the top of your swing.

Release those inhibitions and learn to have fun on the game. Be consistent in your swing and you'll be on a roll. Use that strength that you have and make sure you shoot that ball on the hole!
