Buiding The Proper Way To Swing A Golf Club Through Trial and Error!

What is the difference between a one plane or two plane golf swing? Moe Norman was one of the greatest ball strikers and teachers on the Canadian P.G.A. tour.  His philosophy was to keep the golf swing as natural and simple with no overtaxing swing motion. The one plane golf swing is a pure rotary motion, with a body release as you continue to rotate left, after impact.  The one plane is viewed as being easier to understand and implement when trying to improve your golf swing mechanics.  It requires less timing or tempo,  and it isn’t entirely dependent upon what your lower body is doing with regards to being coordinated with the rest of your golf swing mechanics.  Such as your hip, shoulder and spine rotation, and because of this it reduces the amount of stress that’s placed upon your lower back muscles and joints.  Therefore for older golfers it can help to eliminate golfing injuries.

What is the %%%proper way to swing a golf club%%%? A golf swing is an unnatural motion that can only be perfected through practicing.  The two plane swing or traditional  golf swing,  is a continuous flowing pendulum motion. The two plane swing  is the golf swing we are all taught. When your first learning,  you need to develop faster hip motion and the timing of the lower body with the rest of your golf swing mechanics.  Different golf swing elements do make up a golf swing.  Everything from your grip to your balance, hip and shoulder rotation,  proper stance, to external factors like wind and pin placements. It all makes up how you approach your golf swing.  It is a repetitive motion that places stress on the same muscles over and over again.  As a result, those joints and muscles will get tired, and can lead to different injuries.  A proper way to swing a golf club can be learned and worked on individually. Unlike a baseball swing or a jump shot,  hitting a golf ball is not a natural movement and you must acquire muscle memory only through practicing and training.

Building a  golf swing is like that of building a house.  You need to have blueprint plans on what foundation needs to be built first. Then it’s followed by the actual structures of four walls and a roof.  When you look at the professional golfers you will notice that each of them have  a distinct technique with their golf swing.  Many of the pros have unique golf swings and each of them are able to at some point  win a major event or tournament.  This means that the golf swing is not about a certain way of swinging,  but more about individual techniques that best suits them.  For amateurs many elements will factor into your own specific golf swing.  Your height, weight, the type of golf clubs being used, and whether you are right or left handed, etc,  this does come into play for every golfer.

You don’t have to copy a particular golfer, because your own style will be unique to you.  The proper way to swing a golf club starts with the golfers mindset and self-confidence. The golf swing mechanics is the most important part of playing golf and it also takes a lot of effort to perfect a proper golf swing.  Golf is all about getting the ball around the golf course in the minimum amount of golf strokes.

So how do you correct your golf swing speed issues and get your timing back?  How do you determine if your golf swing speed is your real issue? There are times when you may have gone to the golf course and hit the golf ball beautifully, solid and  straight to the right. This can be an indication that your timing was off enough to cause the golf ball to travel right of your target.  This was caused because your hips were rotating out of the way to quickly and not allowing your golf club to return to square at impact.  Your natural tendency is to rotate your hips during your follow through causing you to pull the ball to the left.  To correct this you need to slow the turning of your hips to allow the golf club more time to return too the golf ball before clearing out completely.  Also, check for proper club head alignment, ball and body positions which is critical to hitting the golf ball.  Even though alignment lines are not visible and must be imagined when setting up to addressing the golf ball.

Golf Swing Speed, usually referred to as timing.  This is one of the most misunderstood golf swing mechanics discussed.  So let’s talk about what timing a golf swing really means.  Timing a golf swing is when you swing the golf club back to the golf ball as your hips turn to clear out of the way.  The reason your hips have to clear out of the way is to allow the club head to return to the golf ball squarely at impact and then follow through and wrap around you to the finish position. This is the function of timing a golf swing.  Whatever golf club feels the most comfortable to you is the one you need to practice with the most.  Continue working with that one golf club in order to improve your golf swing speed, and then practice with the golf club you are struggling with.  However, avoid practicing with that club until you have gotten your timing back on track.
