The issues reviewed in my prior post should provide plenty of motivation to develop and/or accept some unique solutions for helping golfers to play their best. In addition to there being no such thing as a perfect golf swing or perfect golf club, there is also no such thing as
At the start of the new year, I will disclose how to determine the true DNA of one’s golf swing, which shall form a new basis from which all subsequent golf swing and clubfitting principles are derived and which shall include the justifiable reasoning behind gripping a golf club the way it is commonly recommended. Before doing so, however, I want to
I concluded my previous post describing how much a baseball swing can vary (even on successive swings) and yet still be performed superbly, even producing home runs to the same point. Successful golf swing technique(s) can
I begin this post by briefly stating that when discussing levels of swing performance and equipment that often accompanies that performance, I am not trying to discourage anyone from striving for perfection by pointing out unending performance imperfection. I still seek perfection when I work on these facets. Despite knowing that I will never quite get there, rarely does a day go by where
Having established that there is no such thing as a perfect golf swing or two identical swings ever being performed by the same individual even over an entire lifetime based on the highest level of perfection (too high for any human to really comprehend), I will now likewise take a brief look at equipment used to perform with. While doing so, I will also
Briefly following up on my last couple of posts, Golfer’s Brain is a naturally occurring phenomenon and occasional bouts can ultimately be beneficial toward the development of
In continuing my discussion on Golfer’s Brain, if for instance one has a stronger upper body and a weaker lower body, then in the short run one particular golf club gripping style (resultantly influencing swinging style) might be more advantageous and/or natural. But in the long run, no matter what grip/swing style is chosen either naturally or by force,
Last post I divulged that by using a “more natural” grip to hold onto a golf club (no overlapping or interlocking of any fingers), one may substantially increase the chances of hitting a golf ball noticeably farther with no conspicuous loss of consistency in ball contact and/or travel when using any given golf club. (It might take some time to get “re-accustomed” to such a grip and any accompanying swing changes if one has gotten used to an overlapping or interlocking grip). In continuing with what I will term even “earlier fundamentals” of golf club gripping than others begin with, let me first make sure you understand an elementary truth before you
In looking back and considering all things within my variety of experiences to this point, developing a decent golf grip was one of the hardest things I struggled with overall when learning to golf. I am referring here to both the physical unnaturalness of and the mental lack of legitimate reasoning given by others for overlapping or interlocking one’s fingers when gripping a golf club. I admit here that my golf swing was
It has been said over and over again that the foundation of one’s golf swing lies in the way one grips a golf club, and such words are basically true. Now a good golf grip can be mastered with practice and without ever swinging a golf club, so one can still have a good golf grip and yet a very undeveloped swing. But over time, one’s hold on a golf club is perhaps
