Swing Freedom

Golf Tip of the Month By: Bob Schade Last month I gave you two tips to help with your motion. Here is another tip that will help you gain the trust needed to have a repeatable, consistent golf swing. Practice this tip on the range and then take it to the range. I think you will be pleased with the results. 1. Take your normal address position. 2. Take one practice swing with your eyes closed. 3. Now, hit the golf ball with your eyes closed. 4. Repeat this procedure 10 times. That would be 20 swings. 5. Hit 2 shots with your eyes open. After doing this drill a number of times, you will gain an understanding that watching the golf ball is not the most important part of the swing. Many students stare at the ball for way too long. Another good tip is to keep your chin on the ball throughout the swing. That means when you strike the ball and it goes forward your chin should rotate and follow the ball. Good luck and good golfing!
