Golf - How Your Golf Driver Swing Can Have More Power
A golf driver swing that is lacking in power has a couple of issues that need to be addressed. A golf driver swing is slightly different than your other clubs...but needs to have the same sequence of motion and body position at impact to produce more power and distance of the tee.
Most golfers swing outside their physical capabilities resulting in lost yardage and accuracy.
Has this ever happened to you?
You step up on a long par 4 or a par 5 and tell yourself you’re going to get their in two.... |

Golf - Improve Golf Driving Distance
How do I improve my golf driving distance? I hear this question daily. This is the dream of almost every amateur golfer. To hit it longer. But to improve golf driving distance isn’t what you think. No it’s not your equipment. It’s not pounding more balls at the range. And it’s not even taking more lessons.
It’s about working on the machine that swings the club. Are you following me? Do you know wh... |

Golf - Improve Golf Swing The “non-traditional” Way
Improve golf swing seems like a thought that is on our minds as golfers dozens of times per day. Do you agree? But what are you currently doing to improve your golf swing?
Let me take a guess. Spending money on lessons, that may-or-may-not be working? How about the latest-greatest driver? Did it lower your score? Golf balls? They say the Titleist ProV1 makes a ton of difference. Has it for you?
I could go on-and-on but I won’t. I think you get the idea.
So I’ve mentioned some very common, ‘traditional ways’ to try to improve your golf swing. But I haven’t mentioned the MOST important one.
Do you want to take a guess?

Golf - Improve Strength For Golf To Reach Your True Potential
Strength for golf is a term you’ve all heard by now. It’s all over the television during professional tournaments, and golf instructors are now throwing the term around.
What makes strength for golf so important and why should you listen?
Let me briefly explain.
The golf swing is traumatic to the body! I can’t put it any simpler than that. When you are swing an object that is over 3 feet long at over 85 mph, there is a physical cost.
The physical cost is undo stress on the major joints of the body. The lower back is the most common area to get injured, along with the hips, shoulders, knees and even wrists.
If your body is physically weak and restricted (low level of flexibility), you will have a minimal chance... |

Golf - Improve Your Golf Swing By Focusing On Your Finish Position
Watch the pros on Tour and notice how in-control they look at the finish position of the their golf swing. Why? Because they are!
They are in perfect balance. Even the pro who might look a little “crooked” at the end of the swing has a balanced swing. Vijay, who is slightly bent to the side at the finish position of his driver, is still in perfect balance.
How often do you think an amateur practices or even thinks about his or her finish position? Probably never. I would surmise that once contact has ... |

Golf - Improve Your Golf Swing By Improving Your Tempo

Golf - Improve Your Hands And Improve Your Golf Swing
It seems as though many golfers are unaware of the importance the hands play in the execution of the golf swing. Obviously, we know that the hands grip the golf club and attach the body to the club. But what is the importance of them during the swing?
The answer has to do with releasing of the club. Let’s go back and do a quick golf biomechanics review. During the swing, from address position to follow-through, the hands are active in a passive type of manner.
Let me explain. The goal of the golf swing is to move the club on the correct swing plane to induce the intended golf shot that you want. ... |

Golf swing speed is an elusive term for most amateur golfers. We’ve all heard of it and know it relates somehow to longer drives, but how can we increase golf swing speed quickly and effectively?
Do you think it’s swing harder? Have you tried that approach? What happened? I can take a wild guess. The ball didn’t go anywhere! You were so tense that your golf swing speed was actually much slower.
That’s not what you want!
So how do you achieve the ever-elusive higher golf swing speed?
It starts with your engine. Y... |

Imagine hitting your driver farther in your 40’s than when you were in your 20’s!

Golf - It’s Your Body That Will Improve Your Golf Game
It’s Your Body That Will Improve Your Golf Game
Your body and golf go hand-in-hand. You can work on your golf, but if you don’t address your body’s limitations, your game will not improve. I say this very strongly!
The exact opposite will give you similar results.You can work on your body, but if you don’t work on your golf game you will not improve as much; although your body will naturally be able to make a better swing.
In many of the articles I write both for the web and for my golf performance sites, I mention the body as the “the golfing machine”. You may have heard this term before, but I truly feel like it is profound.
Your body dictates your golfing ability!
You can get by on natural ability, but after a while, aging sets in and you lose strength, flexibilit... |

Golf - Lower Your Golf Score Off The Course
To lower your golf score, you’ve got to put some time in. This is the main reason golfers quit the game. Golf is a very challenging game that requires intense concentration, skill, and many physical attributes.
One approach to lower your golf score is one that is off the course and does not involve swinging a club, taking lessons or buying more gimmicky training aids.
The approach I’m talking about is working on your “machine” to produce a repeatable golf swing for 18 holes. Are you currently capable to maintain a mechanically sound swing for the entire round? If you are honest in answering that question, I’ll bet your answer is no.
The biggest frustr... |

Golf - More Muscles Than You Think Are Used In The Golf Swing
While most golfers are aware of the fact that the muscles in the lower part of the body are used in the golf swing, many are not aware of just how important these muscles are to the consistent execution of the perfect golf swing.
Many do not even realize how imperative it is that muscles used in the golf swing are exercised and kept in tip top condition. Actually, if this is not done, it becomes extremely difficult to for anybody to enjoy the game as too many factors stand in the way of a golfer who does not exercise.
For example a common complaint amongst many golfers on the course is that of pain in the lower back which is usually aggravated by golf. This pain is especially evident after longer sessions on the course.

Golf - Power Golf Exercises That Are Proven To Add Distance
Power golf exercises are a unique set of exercises that you do not do in a gym on machines, nor do you lift heavy weights. For that matter, you can do simple power golf exercises right in your home with minimal equipment.
You see…to improve the power in your golf swing, you need to look at the mechanics that create the power.
It’s not your arms swinging the club as hard as you can! It’s not your legs driving your body through the swing! And it’s not swinging some funky 50 inch shaft with a 600cc titanium head either.
It’s quite simple!
The power in your golf swing is your CORE!
Your core is the engine to your swing. If your core is weak or inflexible, you will never be able to hit a powerful t... |

Golf - Preparation In Teeing Up The Golf Ball For The Big One
I know a lot of us golfers have headed up the main drive to the golf course, in anticipation of hitting the big golf ball off the tee. There are four main procedures that we all seem to overlook at times. Hitting the big one, or launching it off the tee has four important steps to consider before we let the golf ball fly.
Tee it up! Why would golfers risk taking a divot with a driver? The risk reward is far greater if you have the ball sitting slightly off the grass. Sure you will get a lower trajectory ball flight, but the chances of taking some grass with it are greater. When you have just air between the clubface ... |
