I was practing my golf swing at the range last night. Looking at my swing now and 1 year ago, there's been a vast improvement. I've read many golf books, magazines, videos. Sometimes I feel that certain golf concepts which are correct when taken into account the entire golf swing makes sense, but when focused on, can sometimes be taken to the extreme, which is wrong.
Here's what I mean. Some golf books illustrate then we need a right over left hand motion which squares the club face to the ball to target line. This is correct. Problem comes when people manipulate their hands to try to get into this position. The truth is, its very hard to force ourselves into this "look" because the timing is so quick and is dynamic in nature.
That look happened because of a series of events. Its not static.
The only way we can get into this look is to ensure that other aspects of the golf swing is in place. The alignment, grip, takeaway, the muscles used during the takeaway, these are all important. The entire golf swing is like a samurai who unsheathes his blade, takes down his opponents and sheathes the sword, all in 1 complete motion. One good action will lead to another, and should we have a problem at any stage in the swing, then the stages of the golf swing after that will be wrong.
Simple example.
Stage 1 is the address position. Stage 2 is the takeaway. Stage 3 is the change in weight on the feet, Stage 4 is the maintaining of the spine angle... Should there be problems in Stage 3...then Stage 4 and so on will have problems. We can correct it be introducing compensations, but we will never never be consistent and the shape of the swing will never last 18 holes.
