New Golfers Need Tips

Easier Than You Think

If the back swing is not correct hitting at impact will be troublesome. There are ideas and concepts that will help you achieve a better back swing.

1. Arms should be straight at address because they provide maximum leverage at impact.

2. Sometimes the left arm will bend in the back swing. En route to the top of the back swing you should extend your left arm to guarantee a straight left arm (for righties) at impact.

3. The upper body should turn away as the club is taken back. It is said the motion is similar to sitting in a chair and turning toward a person sitting next to you.

4. A good tip for  your short game is to keep the right elbow close to the body for chip shots.

5. For the driver a bigger turn is required. It is often said that we should turn our back toward  the target. For additional distance a slight hip turn is suggested.

6. The driver take away should have medium speed going back for control and a lift toward the top. Often we see pros pause at the top to insure balance & control during the down swing.

7. Remember the driving range is of great value when learning. It should teach you to ask yourself "What was not right in that swing." The  next practice shot will get better.

Good luck and practice often.
