The Secret To Golf Swing Consistency

Golf swing consistency is the goal of every golfer. You know you can hit that one in a million shot that you talk about at the 19th hole…but how about making that shot happen more often?

Tip: It's important to simply find a set that complements your game. Remember, individuals back then were using wooden clubs.

The are many aspects to golf swing consistency that can make it seem overwhelming and unachievable…but there is one aspect that every golfer should consider, that will have a dramatic impact on golf swing consistency.

Tip: Shots that push out to the right are often the result of your body sliding to the left during your swing. Try concentrating on releasing your hands to the ball faster during your downswing.

We know golfers hit hundreds of balls every week. They take lessons with some success, but not 100% satisfaction. It’s fun buying new clubs, but did they really make a difference? Did you lower your score by 4-6 strokes?

Tip: Know the ideal use of every club before you start playing. Knowing whether you should select a wood, iron, wedge, or other club can help ensure that your ball always ends up where it should be when you are on the course.

When trying to achieve a higher level of golf swing consistency, the mechanical component comes in to play. But digging a little deeper will get you to the ‘real’ answer to your lack of golf swing consistency.

Tip: Stand a few feet behind the ball and locate where you're going to send it prior to addressing it. This is the time when you should also assess wind speed and direction.

If it’s not hitting more balls…or taking more lessons…or buying more equipment what could it be? What’s left to work on? Am I getting warm yet? Are you following where I’m going with this? We’ve just eliminated what seems like everything haven’t we?

Tip: It is best to grip your club with moderate intensity. If you hold the club too tightly, your golf shots are going to probably go off towards the right.

We haven’t! There is ONLY one thing left! Your BODY! Your “golfing machine”. The one and only thing that can make a direct and almost immediate impact on your golf swing consistency and power.

Tip: Prior to hitting your ball, take a big, deep breath. This will help you stay calm and focused on the task at hand.

When you step onto the golf course, do you feel like your body moves efficiently during your golf swing? Do you feel like you can make a full turn with minimal tensions? Can you stay in balance throughout your entire golf swing for 18 holes?

Tip: You don't need a golf cart on the course when you can walk instead. This is very beneficial to your health as you will be increasing your exercise on the course.

If you answered no to any of the above…it’s time to “get it going!” It’s time to become a “golf athlete!” No longer will you step onto the tee box and feel like an out-of-shape, has-been. You’re going to have an intensely higher level of confidence, and your golf performance will show it.

Tip: The true power for a swing comes from using the entire body, including leg and trunk muscles. Use your legs to power your swing and swing your body in a whip-like motion.

When you get your body moving better, your golf swing mechanics and golf swing consistency will happen naturally. You won’t have to stress out about it. You can let it go and just play.

It’s time for a new approach to your golf improvement…and it starts now!

You will reach new levels of performance and golf swing consistency.
