Golf Swing Tips and Golf Lessons!

Your probably wondering who that funny looking character is above. The images were taken from a video during a lesson I had last time I was in Canada. I was amazed to see how bad my swing really was! My Handicap had steadily dropped from 22 to 14 within a year. I was feeling quite good about my game and was looking forward to the short journey down to a single handicap.

When I saw the video for the first time, I almost died right there on the spot, I was horrified and in shock! There I was as if it was my first time picking up a club. Digital proof right in front of my face that everything I had read, watched and implemented was somehow responsible for my crappy looking swing.

I just wanted to crawl under a rock and hide. How could it all have gone so wrong? I had been reading every golf magazine I could get my hands on, watching golf videos online and as my friends say I was fast approaching golf addition status. The wife was always asking me if I was off to watch more golf porn.

I had a total of three video lessons and picked up some of the best golf swing tips and than went on to play some of the best golf of my life during the next 6 months. I dropped down to 12 handicap quite quickly and even made a few nice eagles and twice came within a few inches of a hole in one. (Update Friday the 7th of Oct, 2011 scored my first hole in one. 185 yards with a 6 iron, Champagne went down nicely.)

I think having video lessons is the best thing you can do to improve your golf swing. Golf Swing Tips can explained when you see yourself on film much easier than someone telling you that you are taking the club back to far on the inside or over the top or inside out. When you see what you are doing it is hard to argue.

Golf Swing Tips – Record your swing!

If you only take one tip from Golf Swing Tips than this is it. Grab a video camera, a mobile phone or anything that can record your swing and see how your swing looks on film.

We go to the range, we hit 1000′s of balls and we practice hitting the ball developing a horrible swing, we improve slightly, mostly by trial and error learning to compensate an outside – inside swing by closing the club face, changing our grip, changing our back swing and a million other bad habits are developed.

The human brain works in the wonderful way that if something doesn’t work fix it. When you hit the ball and it doesn’t go straight our brain says sorry mate need to fix that and the process is a never ending loop of hit, learn, re adjust and by the end of it you have a swing that looks something between Jim Furyk and Charles Barkley.

If you are just starting out I cant tell you how important it is to go and have a lesson with a PGA Pro who is highly qualified to give you the proper golf swing tips you need to improve your game. If you can do it on film it is highly recommended. You can even have a laugh down the road when you do become a good golfer when you look back at it and see how bad you once were.

Another great thing about having it recorded is they give you a DVD as a part of the lesson and you can take it home and watch it whenever you need a refresher. This alone is well worth the price of the lesson as it can be used for years to come.

My brother also had his done and it was amazing to see the differences between the swings on film. As we had similar builds we thought our swings were quite similar and were expecting to hear the same advice for both of us. We couldn’t of been more off track, our problems and solutions were completely different from each other so don’t go with a preset idea of what you are doing. You may be just as surprised as I was.
