McCain vs. Obama on economy
It is important to have read my previous two articles to fully understand this one. In these articles I described the swing as one of the body and not the arms. I also advised that on the down swing you hit out away from yourself to achieve an in to out swing. With all this in mind, the rest of the swing looks after itself with a few extra considerations.
The first consideration is that of balance.
You can swing in the manner shown to you and still get it wrong. Why? Well I haven't told you what to do with you feet.
You can still make a mess of the swing with the wrong use of your feet in spite of having a great swing using you body.
Firstly you may push your left knee to the right during the back swing. I know I have mentioned this, but I will jog your memory if I may. (Not quite feet, but related I am sure you will agree.) During the back swing, make sure your left knee moves in a forward direction (towards the ball) and not to the right. (right handers).
Look at all the good players on the US tour and see how their front knee moves forward every time they hit the ball. This is seen when they are using their driver or long irons. Especially the driver where a full swing is always implemented.
Now your feet.
Good foot movement results in great balance.
Balance is so important during the swing. Balance is the basis of all great movements in the sporting world.
Cricket commentators talk about the balance of the batsman as he hits an off drive.
If you live in a country where no cricket is played, but base-ball is, then the batter succeeds if he has great balance, doesn't he?
I have seen some of the top women Golfers using an exercise ball - you know, one of those great big balls one finds in a gymnasium - to improve their balance. They sit on the ball and accept catches and perform other feats of balance.
This helps to emphasise the importance of balance.
Unfortunately, it is an aspect of the Golf swing that is not considered very often. Most of us pay little attention to improving our balance. Would you agree with this statement? Let me come to the point - at last.
Your feet when using the driver or longer irons.
Please note that this does not apply to the pitching iron or very short irons.
The secret is to roll the feet and not lift them.
If you can not swing back far enough without lifting your left or front heel, then don't swing so far back. Swing back until you can go no further without lifting your front heel. This is far enough and your shot will be just as good if not better.
What you do however, is roll the left or front foot onto the inside of that foot.
When you do this, place your weight onto the inside of your right or hind foot. this will stop you swaying to the right.
Boy! Is this ever different you are saying. If you are not, then, congratulations, you certainly have your swing well under control
The major point is that your left heel is still on the ground. When you use your body to make the swing, this is so much easier than when you use your arms to take the club back. Now for the down swing and taking the club through the ball.
Because you are still using your body to make the swing, it is very easy to have your weight on your left foot and roll your right foot so that any weight is on the inside of the sole.
This system will eliminate a huge number of errors that can cause a bad shot.
What are these? What things cause you to hit your ball in the way you hate? One of the major causes is body sway. The second is moving the head especially moving your head in front of the ball. The next thing is poor balance. You fall or stagger after you have made your swing sometimes. Right?
By adopting the technique above, these and other faults will be automatically eliminated By keeping your feet on the ground as described above, you will have a great base and anchor. You will be held in a very firm and stable position as you hit your ball. Hence your balance will be superb and your Golf will improve out of sight.
Now to mollify those better Golfers who lift their right heel on the follow through. Yes, this is sound for you. You are experienced Golfers and can lift your right heel slightly on the follow through. You may even be able to lift your left heel slightly on the back swing, but I would advise against this. This can result in too many moving parts. For completeness, let me mention that when using the pitching iron etc, the left foot never lifts, or rolls either. The no lift technique above is for the struggling to not so average Golfer and it will improve him/her out of sight. He/she can then go on to lifting the heels slightly if so desired. I hope you choose not to do this except to allow the automatic slight lift of the back or right heel on the follow through. Every Golfer should have a minimum of movement of heels during the swing for the sake of good balance. You good Golfers, give this technique a try why don't you?
