Effortless Power Golf Swing

Author : Mike Pedersen

A power golf swing is the dream of every golfer. How many times have you hit one just perfect and tried desperately to remember what you did that caused this to happen? A power golf swing is not about swinging hard. So many times a golfer will try to put a little more into it‚ to get a few extra yards. If you've tried this what happened? Did you get those extra yards or did it go shorter and even offline?

That's the point I'm trying to make! To hit a LONG drive or add yards to every club in your bag, you need to be able to generate more clubhead speed, but under control. That's where most golfers lose it. If your body can't physically make an optimum swing, from a mechanical standpoint, you have no business trying to swing any harder. The result will be a blown up score and drives that go significantly shorter, not longer.

The beauty of getting your body in better golf shape , is that you can hit the ball with more force, but with much less effort. Let me explain. If you've improved your core strength and flexibility for example, you will be able to make a FULL shoulder turn (backswing) with minimal tension. This backswing has now a ton of torque built up. With your newfound strength and flexibility, you will be able to unleash that torque, powerfully into the golf ball.Doesn't that make sense?Now imagine if you improved your overall body specific to golf. Now you've got a power golf swing that is under control and killing it off the tee!

Your playing partners won't know what hit them. So the key to remember in an effortless power golf swing is improving your bodies ability to rotate and store energy, then, unleash it into the ball at impact. If you are lacking distance and feel like you're trying to swing harder, this is the reason why. A fit golfer has a HUGE advantage over an out-of-shape one. Follow this advice and you're on your way to an effortless power golf swing!

How Different Courses Can Help You Become A Good Golf Player

Golf is an fulfilling and absorbing sport but, even so, there is a risk that you may become stale or bored if you do not change the place where you play. This makes golf different from other games, but the reason for this is the very nature of golf. To become a really good golf player, one needs to play according to the unique nature of every course, which in turn means that more than one course is ideal for the maximum development of your game.Therefore, changing courses requires more than one golf course.

While you are still a beginner, or are short of money, your choices are usually limited to golf courses near the place you live, work, or study. Usually there is more than one course there and most likely they are not too expensive.However, once you have mastered these courses, you'll probably be looking for more.The most logical place to look into, while searching for a new course, is the PGA Tour stops. The disadvantage of PGA Tour stops is that usually they are not cheap, getting inside is difficult and often they are members-only country clubs. So, before heading to a PGA Tour stop, it is wise to check its rules and make reservations a couple of months in advance.

If changing the golf course is not the sole purpose of your journey, consider one of the several travel destinations, which are suitable for the whole family. In the daytime you will play golf, while your family members are having fun, and you will spend the evening together.One of the best locations for golf and family vacations all in one is Hawaii.

There are many famous golf courses in the Hawaii Islands. Depending on which island you're staying on, there are several different golf courses for you to visit.If your destination is Oahu (if you are staying in Honolulu, it is on this island), consider the Waikele Golf Club or the Coral Creek Golf Course. They will help you to improve your golf skills, because both courses are designed in a way which includes parts of the terrain.If you are on the Hawaii Island, why not visit Sandalwood on the Maui Island? This is a relatively new and at the same time well-known golf course. Or why not try the Kona Country Club or the Mauna Key golf course on the Big Island?Another popular golf destination is Japan.

In Japan, there are literally thousands of different golf courses to improve your skills. But it is very, very important that you book your trip in advance, or you might miss the tee time on a Japanese golf club.However, no matter where you end up going to golf, you'll always be improving your game by exposing yourself to new hazards and obstacles. Just make sure that you plan ahead completely if you're going to be golfing at courses while on vacation - you don't want to get there and be unable to golf because you forgot to make the right reservations!
