How to play golf well

Anyone who plays golf knows that the most difficult part of this sport is that there are so many swing skills that need to be mastered.

Sometimes a small mistake in detail can ruin a shot or even a game.

Below, Galileo will tell you a few tips that will help us better master the swing. ​

  1. Turn your shoulders to under your chin

In order to gain more power, we must fully rotate our shoulders. The shoulder mentioned here is turned under the chin, not only the left shoulder, but also the right shoulder. ​

 

Some golfers tend to rotate their left shoulder under their chin during the backswing, but neglect to fully rotate the shoulder during the downswing.

Imagine rotating your right shoulder under your chin during the downswing. Only in this way will it be considered a complete shoulder rotation and the impact will be more powerful.

  1. Hold a hollow ball between your knees

During the backswing process, in order to prevent excessive rotation of the hips, causing the left shoulder to sink, such as incorrect movements.

We can practice by holding a hollow ball between our knees. This exercise limits excessive hip rotation and makes it easier to build swing power. ​

Don’t let the ball drop during the backswing

 

 

  1. Point your thumb to the sky

If you want to get the correct swing plane, try to have your thumb pointing skyward as you reach the half-swing position, and then point your thumb skyward as you reach the same symmetrical position on the follow-through swing. This kind of pointing to the sky will prevent you from having the swing plane too flat and help shape the correct swing plane.

  1. Pause at the top of the backswing

When reaching the top of the backswing, the most common mistake many golfers make is to rush into the downswing, thus destroying the overall swing rhythm. To maintain good swing rhythm, there should be a slight pause at the top of the backswing before starting the downswing.

  1. Lift your feet to practice weight transfer

We all know that weight shift is an important factor that can help us hit the ball farther. ​

 

In order to transfer your center of gravity more fully, you can practice lifting your left foot during the backswing and your right foot during the downswing. This will make it easier for you to understand what the correct center of gravity transfer is.

  1. Keep your right knee stable

No matter what kind of exercise you do, you should always pay attention to maintaining the stability and bending angle of your right knee throughout the entire backswing process. This approach is of great benefit to both accumulating energy for the entire backswing and maintaining the same body angle. ​

 

  1. Practice balance with legs together

The reason why many people find themselves unsteady during or after hitting the ball is usually because their shoulders are not rotated correctly. ​

 To work on this, bring your feet together and swing. This will force you to make a correct shoulder turn.

When you return to your normal stance, you will find that your body is more balanced. ​

  1. Think of your arms as ropes

One of the most common mistakes among beginners is to have their arms too stiff. The result is either frequent mistakes or an inability to develop a faster swing speed. ​

 If this happens to you, imagining your arms as soft as rope during your swing can help increase your swing speed. ​

  1. Use more sand in the bunker

When practicing bunker ball, some golfers always dare not hit the sand. In fact, this is wrong. Since the bunker ball is not hit directly but chooses to enter the sand behind the ball, more sand will inevitably be hit. ​

 

Don't be afraid of hitting sand when practicing. It's better to hit more sand than not hit it at all. ​

  1. Practice putting with Tee.

Many golfers always practice putting aimlessly, thinking that as long as they put more, they will be able to play well. There is nothing wrong with this, but adding some practice methods will save you time and effort.

In order to prevent too many leading movements of the hands and errors in the trajectory of the club head, we can use the readily available ball Tee to practice. Insert two ball tees at the position of the ball with a distance just enough for the club head to pass through. When making a putt, do not let the club head touch the ball tee. Repeating this practice will make your putt more stable.
