Coming Down On The Backswing…

12:15 pm May 24, 2009

Coming Down..

Now you are ready to explode through the grace of your downswing,
ultimately driving the ball perfectly towards it’s destination.

A. The Downswing
Your backswing should have felt controlled and smooth. Now you
will feel a change in tempo. You will release the downswing with
full power. Graceful & easy at the same time.

Even though you are getting ready to completely change your
technique and motion from the transition of the backswing to the
downswing, the switch should still be graceful and as seamless as
possible. The best swings show no sign of using a snapping motion
or force.

Unfortunately, this is where many beginner and amateur golfers
make their mistakes. Their backswing was initiated perfectly, but
their transition towards making contact with the ball is sabotaged by
a poor downswing.

B. Start From The Hips
The hips should be the very first body parts to move when bringing
the club down from your backswing. In fact, your entire body is
getting ready to uncoil itself starting from the hips. Don’t pay too
much attention to your arms and hands. They will be the last body
parts to turn and it should happen naturally.

Once your body starts to uncoil, be sure that your weight begins to
shift from your right foot to your left.

This part is crucial!

If you don’t shift your weight onto your left foot, you will lose nearly
half of the power and accuracy needed to make a successful shot. At
first you may need to concentrate on shifting your weight.
But, after enough practice, your body should do transition the weight
distribution naturally. Repetition is key.

C. Uncoil The Body & Release The Energy
When it comes to arms & hands. strive to maintain the bend you
have in your wrists for as long as possible. They should be the last
part of your body to release before the ball is hit.

If you can snap your wrists at the very last moment, you’ll
undoubtedly transfer more power and strength to the ball. Which
will drive it longer consistently.

The clubhead should now be coming down and moving faster
towards the ball. Good form is essential. As the downswing gains
momentum and speed, your entire body should follow through
automatically, without interference.

Once the clubhead approaches the golf ball, you should feel as if you
are cracking a whip….
