Turn your practice into muscle memory

Let's face it, the golf swing is over in a flash and it's impossible to think of every movement that must be carried out in order to hit a good shot. For example, the backswing and downswing, if analysed in slow motion, would make a trip to the moon easier to organise and fully understand.

This is why repeating and repeating the movements required is so important to practice, that it becomes second nature and underlines why lengthy trips to the driving range are important. Swinging up and swinging down needs a two-sided approach, as your left shoulder pushes back and across your body's right half is beginning to turn back and through as simultaneously your wrists hinge to allow you to complete the pivot back.

The downswing starts by the left knee moving towards the target and a chain reaction begins. The feeling is moving the body from left to right then from right to left, whilst resisting swaying. Like hitting a nail effortlessly on its head time and time again without too much thought, with practice, turning back and then down through the ball will become one movement consisting of many.

Out of Bounds: Violence is an incompetent golfer's last refuge.
