The Perfect Golf Swing

 
 

So you want the perfect gold swing? Sick of those fades, hooks, or my arch-nemesis, slices?

There are many effective styles of golf swing, but the good ones, the perfect ones, they all share one thing in common. Consistency. If I could learn just one thing about how to swing a golf club, consistency would be it.

According to Tom Ward, a PGA instructor who also writes for golflink.com, there are two very important things that you need to do to improve your swing. Firstly, understand what is causing the problem. This might require that you do a little research into the causes of slices, for instance. Secondly, it is incredibly important to not over-complicate or over-think things. Keep it simple.

While going into the biomechanics of a perfect golf swing is far beyond the scope of this short article, you can expect to see more tips here in the future. If you're looking for more information, I would recommend taking a look at an ebook titled, The Simple Golf Swing. It will provide you with a resource that you can refer to again and again. I found it effective and easy to understand, and it definitely improved my game.
