Guaranteed Basic Golf Swing Tips To Improve Your Game!

I can remember the first time I ventured out onto a golf course and tried to hit the cover off the ball on the first tee. My memory of that inauspicious debut was a skewed shot which disappeared into the bushes to the right and became just another lost ball statistic. My basic golf swing technique for starters was crappy but more importantly, I didn’t really understand the mechanics of the golf swing.
The end result of that very first game was a large triple figure score and about fifteen golf balls which never saw the light of day again. Oh, I can laugh about it now but if you want to know what epitomised embarrassment I’m here to tell you it was yours truly on that fateful day.
Can you as a novice draw similar comparisons? Well, if you haven’t mastered the basic golf swing yet and you plan on improving your driving, chipping and putting then read the rest of this article.
Physics And The Basic Golf Swing
Before you can even think about using brute strength in you swing you need to understand golf isn’t really a game about power. It’s more timing and that’s why it’s a good idea to examine your clubs closely. Notice how each one is designed just a little differently than the other. The three iron has a more flatter blade than the nine iron. The three iron is designed for hitting the ball longer distances while the nine iron is designed for more up and under.
Getting into the habit of using the appropriate club for the appropriate play will get you forming good basic golf swing habits. It’s a similar story with the driving woods. In most cases, you’ll have a selection to choose from. I have four and my favorite is the fairway wood. It’s designed to be used as the follow up to the tee shot on a long range hole and used correctly, is very effective in getting a clean, crisp shot away without forcing the shot with unnecessary power.
Golf Exercise
Believe it or not, one of the keys to maintaining a good basic golf swing is fitness, or being golf fit if you like. Identifying your golfing muscles is important and if you are not sure, ask an experienced golfer. No, it doesn’t mean you need to spend five days in a gym building up to Mr. Universe levels. Simple golf stretch exercises; some involving use of a club and others just basic body stretches. You’ll be surprised how effective muscle conditioning will help your basic golf swing movement.
Enlisting the services of a short term coach is a great way to learn the basic skills. It’s like building a house; get the foundation right and you have something to build on. A coach will quickly pin point your problem areas and address them quickly. Ask at your favorite clubhouse the next time you’re there.
The basic golf swing in many ways is like a player’s “holy grail.” Once it’s mastered, you can then plan for bigger and better things, including the odd power drive off the tee!

Lyle upstages the Sydney Stars

John Daly stormed off in mid-round, Adam Scott shot an albatross and Tiger Woods produced his first bogey free round in nine months, but little-known Aussie Jarrod Lyle stole the spotlight on the opening day at the Emirates Australian Open on Thursday.

And not only because, in the face of the strongest field ever to contest the event, he was able to grab the first round lead with a stunning 7-under 65 at The Lakes Golf Club in Sydney.

What also had a lot to do with him upstaging the big guns was the heart-warming story that the 30-year-old cancer survivor admitted to have been greatly buoyed on Thursday by the news that he is soon to be a father in spite of warnings from his doctors that cancer treatment he underwent more than 10 years ago would most likely affect his fertility.

"Yes, I got engaged with my Titleist 712 AP2 Irons this year. That's a good thing. My fiancee is pregnant as well. The pregnancy side of things is something I never knew could happen," Lyle said.

"To hear that Briony was pregnant made Titleist 712 AP2 Irons seem insignificant. Those bad days don't affect you any more. I've got a little bub on the way. I feel that nothing can really worry me now,"

Lyle, who was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in 1999, didn't play anything like a golfer who had just lost his US Tour card after finishing 167th on the PGA money list this year

He posted five sparkling birdies and spectacularly eagled the 502-metre par-5 14th hole in a flawless round to take a one shot lead ahead of big-hitting American Dustin Johnson, the world No.5 and the top-ranked player in the 156-man Australian Open field and his highly-rated American compatriot Nick Watney, who along with their captain Fred Couples and a good few of their US team-mates, including Woods, are using the Aussie Open as a warm-up for next week's Presidents Cup in Melbourne.

Daly, in the meantime, found himself in hot water when he stormed off The Lakes course after dumping at least six balls in the water off the 11th tee.

In explanation of his actions, the volatile Daly said he had pulled out of the round because he had exhausted all the balls in his bag, but seething officials were having none of it and said that not only had his invitation to the upcoming Australian PGA Championship been withdrawn, but also that he would never again invited to play Titleist 712 AP2 Irons in the Australian Open.

Woods, on the other hand, had one of his best days in a long time.

The previously embattled golfing icon, who teed off just after the wind started picking up, was delighted with his four-birdie 68, which left him tied for eighth on four-under and three off the pace, but perhaps of more significance, earned him his first bogey-free round in nine months.

"I hit it really good by playing Titleist 712 AP2 Irons today," said the current World No 58 after reigning as the World No 1 for more than a decade.,

"That was exactly how I've been hitting them at home and that's good, I was able to take it on to the golf course today and I was able to hit all the shots in these conditions."

If the lowest scores, including Lyle's 65, were posted in the morning before the wind got up, most of the drama came in the afternoon and started with local hero Scott delighting the packed gallery at the par-five eighth hole with only the second albatross of his career.

The world number eight hit his second shot with Titleist 712 AP2 Irons from behind a bunker some 200 metres out and it landed on the green before spinning into the hole for a 3-under two

"It gave me a boost for sure," said Scott, who celebrated by high-fiving with his controversial caddie Steve Williams who has been in the headlines for days following an off-colour comment he made at a Caddies Awards diner in Shanghai last Friday about Woods, his former long-time employer.

"It put me where I should have been considering how I hit the ball. I didn't make a putt today so I'm quite happy with that three-under," said Scott

whose 69 was matched by fellow Australian Top-10 World Ranker Jason Day, who will count himself unlucky not to have done better after a string of near misses with his putter.

Watney, in the meantime, was the only player to threaten early-finisher Lyle at top of the leaderboard when a changeable, gusty wind reduced players and caddies to throwing grass into the air at every tee, but Couples will also have been pleased with his first round.

Looking good enough to play Titleist 712 AP2 Irons in next week's President's Cup rather than serve as the USA non-playing captain, Couples was in a group of four players sharing fourth with a 67.

The 52-year-old former Masters champion was tied on five-under with Australians Steven Jones, Greg Chalmers and James Nitties.
