Straightforward Tips To Enhance Your Golf Power Swing

By Ralph Anderson

People like being flashy and for a golfer, that means having a powerful swing. If you've got a powerful swing, it means that on longer holes you'll be able to get to the green faster than the other guy and in less strokes - maybe even get a hole in one in a short hole.

Accuracy and over-extension are often mutually exclusive. Pushing your muscles and hitting as hard as you can often leads to loss of control and thus, a wilder, less reliable swing.

Great players know better than to force more power out of their bodies. They know that forcing the issue can lead to disaster, with backs getting thrown out or worse, their technique completely deteriorating into a joke.

Most players who've tried can tell you that it only took a few weeks of play to make convince them to go back to their original style.

New things aren't always good things, especially if they end up taking away far more than they actually give you. Technique has always beaten sheer strength - in golf, it remains the rule remains relevant. Being able to aim the ball is a lot better than being able to hit it hard enough into a forest to lose the game.

Your own abilities can win you the game, especially if you improve it using training. Instead of just trying to hit harder, you can learn how to hit better instead, dodging obstacles using precise hits rather than just trying to one-hit wonder the entire course.

Power in itself is not bad, but throwing away skill just to hit harder is a sure recipe for failure. If you've got it - use it. If you don't, don't give up your form just for it.

Hopefully you have picked up a few pointers about how to improve your swing.
