The golf swing plays a critical part in a successful golf shot. An essential technique is to ensure the correct grip of the golf club with the appropriate amount of pressure.
The club flow will be too rigid when bringing it down if the hold is too firm, and could lead to a slice. If the grip is not sufficient, the golfer may lose possession of the club altogether. Many golf professionals use the overlap grip where the little finger of the right-hand rests between the second and index finger of the left hand.
Posture forms the basis for every golf swing. With the wrong stance, the whole swing could be affected. The chest should be lowered, with the hips pushed back. The weight of the golfer should fall towards the feet, releasing the tension in the knees.
For a tee shot with a driver, the feet should align with the shoulders. For other clubs, the feet should be as wide apart as the hips.
When addressing the ball, the club face and body face towards the pin. The feet, shoulders, and hips should be square to the pin. Some players place a club down to assist with alignment while practicing. Another strategy involves taking a step back from the tee and visualizing the shot.
