Developing a better golf swing
Every golfer can improve if they pay attention to the proper pre-swing fundamentals. By that I mean grip, posture, alignment and ball position. Visit my web site at www.jmlongdrive.com.
Many golfers struggle with their swing because they're squeezing the club way too tightly. Tense muscles translate to slow muscles. We want to have spped in our swing so that we can hit the ball afrther and with more accuracy.
To determine the proper grip pressure, hold the club in front of you with the shaft parallel to the ground. That’s too much pressure. Then hold the club in front of you with the shaft pointed straight up. That’s too little pressure. When the club is held at a 45 degree angle, the pressure should be proper.
Please keep in mind that it’s very easy to have proper grip pressure when we’re in our set-up. The most important part is during the transition phase of the swing where we are most likely to squeeze.
