Top Golf Swing - Golf Tips

There should be some magic solution that we could accomplish getting our great practice swings to be duplicable when we are out on the course hitting the real shots.

Almost all of the professionals have accomplished this and their real swings are as good as the practice swings.

There are several tips that I found useful in getting my real golf swings to be as good as my practice swings:

1- Take a beautiful practice golf swing before you are ready for the real swing and try to duplicate it into your real golf swing.

2- Concentrate on one thing only during your real golf swing rather allowing multiple things to clutter your mind during the real swing.

3- Focus on the target area rather than the ball on the real golf swing.

4- Relax your muscles prior to making your real golf swing.

5- Have someone take a video of your practice golf swing vs. your real golf swing and you might learn something from it.

Remember these golf tips if you want to get your real golf swing to be as good as your practice swing and improve your golf score.

Practice making perfect practice swings and then convert them to your No. 1 real golf swings on your next round of golf.

Golf Swing Test

getting your golf swing checked out by a professional golfer or coach can be a time consuming and expensive process. But let me tell you that by using this simple Golf Swing Test, you can start to achieve the following:
  • Immediately start to hit the ball further.
  • Make slices, hooks and pulls a thing of the past.
  • Dramatically improve your accuracy.
  • Increase your confidence in your golf swing.
  • Enjoy your game more.
  • And especially don't forget the part about making your slice a thing of the past. This is my most frustrating aspect of my game. Now I have it under control.

Golf Swing Tip

Do not under estimate the power of this golf tip. To make sure that your right elbow is in the correct position at the top of your backswing, imagine that you are carrying a tray with a drink on it. Your top of backswing position and the "waiters" arm position should be exactly the same.
This sets your right elbow in the correct position and also makes sure that the golf club is swinging on the right swing plane with the proper clubface angle.

This is one of those golf swing tips that you can take on the course with you and have a constant check for your backswing position.

In my travels across the Internet I came across a website that has a unique golf swing test. This golf swing test was created to see if us golfers have a single swing fault that is stopping us from hitting the ball further, straighter and more consistently.

Apparently if you have this one swing fault it could be costing us up to 50 yards in distance.

Golf Grip Advice For Longer, Straighter And More Consistent Golf Shots

First of all, get a semi permanent felt tip pin and draw circles about 1 cm above your top hand's knuckles. So for a right handed golfer you would do this on your left hand. For a left handed golfer you would do this on your right hand.

Now simply practice taking your grip and see what your grip feels like when you can see 1 knuckle, then 2 knuckles, then 3 knuckles on your top hand. Also do this exercise with your feet together. By doing this you'll always have a reference position that you can easily repeat.

Test Your Skills With a Virtual Golf Game

When it comes to virtual golf, the general thought is that you are missing out if you have not played a golf video game in a while. The simulated feel of a real golf game is unbelievable. Actually, it is even better than that since the simulation is so believable.

Video games have advanced a lot and virtual golfing is no exception. The newest technology in video gaming is available in the most remote corners of cyber space and video streaming. The good news is that this technology is available to you regardless of skill level or budget. Whether you are skilled at real time golf on the green or simply a golf novice, cyber golf is clean fun for anyone.

One ting force in golf video games is Tiger Woods PGA Tour Series. In previous years, there were other games mentioned more often as well as a wider scope of golf video games. But, just as Tiger Woods has done in the world of golf, his video tour series has become a top player in the virtual golf age.

Golf Swing Sequencing - The Secret For Effortless Distance

When you start your backswing you should do so with the big muscles e.g. your back and shoulders. You should not start your backswing with your hands e.g. picking the club up.

Now as you're starting the backswing by turning your shoulders and back you also need to shift your weight to your right foot. You need to continue to shift your weight to your right foot as you're turning your shoulders and back on the backswing. And keep doing this so that at the top of your backswing position you have about 85 - 90% of your weight on your right foot.

Why, Oh Why, Is The Golf Swing SO Hard?

The psychologists believe that as children we learn from repeating the model that we see – we know that kids are very trusting of what they are told. Yes, they ask lots of questions but they trust the answers given. They see, and are told, and DO.
Now as adults we learn differently. We have already formed opinions about how the world is and how things operate. So when we learn something new we actually test it against the rules that we have already built up in our heads as to what is right and wrong.
