Breaking It Down: Golf Swing Analysis
? Stance - A proper stance is a vital part of a successful
golf swing. When addressing the ball, get into a
comfortable athletic stance, as if you are getting ready to
field a ground ball. Like every other sport, golf requires
a loose but sturdy ready position. Bend at the hips, keep
your back straight, and slightly bend your knees. Become
comfortable in the stance (again, think about how a
shortstop bounces his knees to get into a ready position)
before taking the club head into a backswing.
? Alignment - Where you line up will dictate which direction
the ball will travel in. When you step up to the ball, draw
an imaginary line from your back foot to your front foot.
Whichever direction this line points will be the direction
the ball will travel. A good way to practice alignment is
to take a club and place it against both toes. The club
will point to where the ball will travel.
? Grip - Many people often use the familiar baseball grip
and apply it to a golf club. This grip, however, will cause
you to come over the ball, which in turn leads to a dead
pull. When holding the club properly, you should be able to
see two "V"'s made from each hand's index finger and thumb.
This usually is done by turning both wrists in towards your
body. (This varies depending on how each individual golfer
was taught to hold a club.) Additionally, unlike a baseball
grip, a golf grip entails interlocking your right pinkie
with your left index finger for righties, and visa verse for
lefties.
Perfecting these setup techniques is only the first half of
creating a correct golf swing. The latter half is the swing
itself, made up of the backswing and the follow through. It
is difficult to describe the appropriate way to swing a club
for two reasons: First, every shot requires a different
motion, and second, each golfer should use a swing that best
suits their skill level, body type, and many other
variables.
The only way to truly improve your swing is to break it down
into different parts. A golf swing analysis will allow
golfers to see their swing bit by bit and determine each
individual flaw.
