HOW TO PERFORM THE PERFECT GOLF SWING Perform the Perfect Golf Swing. If you want to know how to carry out a golf swing or are looking for ways to improve your golfing performance - this is for you. This PPT will prevent that 'hook' or 'slice' off the tee!
STEP 1: POSITION YOURSELF IN LINE WITH THE FLAG
When approaching your ball, look out for a nearby leaf, small stone or broken tee which is in a direct line between the flag you are aiming for, and your ball. Imagine a line between these 2 reference points and put your club face square to it. Now stand parallel to this imaginary line. You are correctly orientated to begin the perfect golf swing.
STEP 2: GRIP YOUR LEFT HAND CORRECTLY
Making sure your club is naturally on the ground behind the ball, place it in the left hand so that the shaft lies across the top of the forefinger. It should fit under the heel of the palm, to make space for the stability of the club. Make sure that the little finger is around the grip so that there is no room for the club to move.
STEP 3: TIP!
Make sure that the thumb is straight on top of the shaft with a natural grip. You should be able to see 2 or 3 knuckles of your hand. This is the correct left hand grip.
STEP 4: GRIP YOUR RIGHT HAND CORRECTLY
With your right arm hanging naturally, shake hands with the club and settle into the grip. Fold your right hand over the left thumb. The thumb of the right hand on the club should be pointing to the right shoulder.
STEP 5: GRIP THE BACK OF THE CLUB CORRECTLY
There are 3 different ways to grip the back of a golf club – choose whichever feels better for you. The Vardon or Overlapping Grip is by far the most common method used in golf. Place the little finger of the right hand between the index finger and middle finger of the left hand. The Interlocking Grip is where the right little finger and the left index finger are locked together.
STEP 6: ADOPT THE CORRECT STANCE
The proper stance will allow perfect balance and poise throughout the swing. To start, the feet should be apart at the same width of the shoulders for a mid iron shot. To ensure that your shoulders are in the correct position, first place the club in the centre of your chest and lean forward from the waist, unlocking and bending the knees. Now dip your right shoulder slightly until the club touches the inside of your left leg. This is the correct shoulder position.
STEP 7: PERFORM THE FINAL SWING
Now we have the correct orientation, grip and stance we are ready to finally perform the swing. You might find it useful to perform the waggle at this point. This movement can be an important part of the swing as it will ensure that your weight is evenly distributed on the feet. During the waggle, your upper body and shoulders should not move. Everyone has their own way of using the waggle - most importantly it will relax your body in anticipation of the actual shot.
