Golf Swing Sequence - What Is It?
By: Jason Hobbs
Most experts say there are 3 parts to the golf swing sequence, but there are actually 4 parts. It is the first part that seems to get left out of most golf instructions, yet is a very important part of the sequence. This part is called the set up.
When you are performing the set up, your feet need to be shoulder width apart as well as parallel to your target. Your ball should be opposite of your left heel with the face of your club aiming at the green. You might try using the shaft of your club to mark a straight line from your ball to the hole. Choosing something like a mark on the turf or a piece of grass that stands out can serve as a marker. Once you have this worked out, you can line up your club face to the marker you chose.
The next part of the golf swing sequence is the back swing. This is a very important part of the full golf swing. It is so vital to get this part right because if it isn't correct at this stage, then the rest of the swing sequence will be off, making for an appalling drive. This part of the swing sequence needs to be on body rotation along with club and arm extension.
The next stage, called the downswing, begins with the hips and legs instead of the arms. Your knees, thighs, and hips should begin to move forward, shifting your body weight from the back to the front. Following this form is the correct way of performing this part of the golf swing sequence.
The final step is impacting the ball. Your body weight should fall on the outside of your forward heel and the inside of your rear foot. There is no other correct way to follow through on this stage.
The only way to get your golf swing sequence down the right way is to perform some exercises that are golf specific. These will strengthen the right muscles. You need to be aware that the golf swing, in general, is not a natural body movement. This is why it is so hard to do it the right way. If you have a favorite professional golfer that you like, try watching him or her and mimic the moves you see. That can be a rather effective way to find your own way of doing things.
