Golf Swing Takeaway Tip
from:I'll never forget the time a few years ago when my brother in
law Steve explained to me how he discovered a major break
through in his golf swing. He describes this golf swing takeaway
tip as lightning in a bottle, the true holy grail of
golf!
Steve told me he had been sitting at an 8 handicap for about 4
years and was getting very frustrated at his lack of
improvement. He practiced diligently however he had truly
reached a plateau in his golf game.
He went through about 4 golf pros during this time and every one
of them told him there was nothing wrong with his golf swing.
Eventually he started playing less and less golf and was about
ready to give it up altogether.
Steve said while on vacation with his family he was browsing
through an old book store on Martha's Vineyard when he came
across a used copy of Joe Dante's Four Magic Moves to
Winning Golf written in 1972. He said he couldn't put the
book down so out of courtesy to the store owner he bought it.
Steve showed me the book and as I leafed through it I was amazed
at all the beautifully drawn illustrations showing how to swing
a golf club properly. Andy Brown has since revised this book for
the 21st century and offers many media formats to read or listen
to the book.
Steve turned to the chapter that explains the early backward
wrist break and told me this one magic move has totally
transformed his golf game! He went on to say how golf pros never
tell you HOW to break the wrists during the backswing for
whatever reason. Steve believes the first 18 inches of the
backswing are the most critical.
Most golfers fan the clubface open early in the backswing
causing them to swing the club way too much to the inside, this
knocks the swing off plane early in the backswing. Golfers then
usually spend the rest of the golf swing trying to adjust so
they can just make contact with the ball, not a good recipe for
success!
The book goes on to say there should be no open or closing of
the clubface early in the backswing, if you correctly perform
the early backward wrist break your swing will be on plane early
in the swing, Steve says he feels like the club is swinging
itself, a truly effortless swing!
I am happy to say that my brother in law Steve is now a scratch
golfer, thanks to this one magic move that has transformed his
golf game!
When you make the backward wrist break perfectly - only one
knuckle of your left hand (right handed golfers) and two
knuckles of your right hand should be visible and the golf club
should be parallel to your target line.
You pay a lot of money to play this great game of golf, so why
not enjoy it more by playing the golf you are capable of?
Try this golf swing takeaway tip and build the early backward
wrist break into your golf swing and I promise you will halve
your handicap in 2 weeks!
Hit 'em Long and Straight!
