So you want to Improve Your Golf Swing, very good here are three tips which I find are a must
Tip #1:
This is the most important: Do A Warm Up Prior To The First Tee. It is that important of a tip that I’m going to put it into capitals and bold it
DO A WARM UP PRIOR TO THE FIRST TEE
Why? Well answer me this, how many professional athletes do you know who just walk out into their chosen arena; golf, football, skating, whatever and just start. NONE – point made!
Here is a very simple warm up exercise you could use do some arm circles, toe touches, squats with your club, and standing twists holding the club out in front of you chest high. It doesn’t have to be high tech stuff just enough to get you mentally and physically prepared for the battle ahead.
Tip #2
I find that stretching on the course is vital it keeps your body nice and loose to make that FULL backswing. Get a good full backswing and you will generate high clubhead speed and consistently LONG drives. Here is one stretch I recommend you do at EACH hole.
Get in your golf posture, with your arms hanging naturally in front of you. For a right-handed golfer, you would take your right hand underneath your left, so the back of both hands are touching each other.
Gently apply pressure from the back of your right hand against your left and pull your upper body all the way in your backswing and hold. Hold it, count to 15 and then do the whole thing over again. It takes less that one minute and it will greatly help you.
Tip #3
Now here is one to do ‘off course,’ in the privacy of your own home, and you don’t need that much equipment and it is aimed at improving your core strength and rotational speed.
Here we go I’m going to call this one The Seated Twist. You will need a five or 8 pound dumbbell.
Ready? OK sit on the ground, grab the dumbbell with both hands and hold it out in front of you.
Now lean back putting tension on the abs. Your legs will be bent at a 90 degree angle in the knee, and together.
Start rotating side to side, only with your upper body. Try keeping your lower body as stable as possible.
To get the full benefit out of this exercise do 3 sets of 20 repetitions. Again, this is just ONE exercise of many that will strengthen your rotational muscles of your core.
I’ve just showed you 3 quick and easy golf tips to dramatically increase your distance. Now go out and make it happen!
