Learning how to master your backswing can take years of skilled practice. Your goal is to get one fluid motion of grace and finesse. From the start of your backswing, through impact, to the follow through, it should be one fluid motion....

A. Why It Matters

The backswing is the initial movement of your golf club. It defines everything that follows. Therefore, it's critical to get it right!

B. The Takeaway

Once you are set up and in position to prepare for your shot, begin the backswing by moving your club slowly backwards. Keep the clubhead as close to the ground as possible.

Don't move the club too fast as this may create a steep swing plane which can reduce your power & accuracy. And, be sure that your left shoulder is slightly higher than your right one (assuming you are right-handed). Your shoulders, arms, and hips should all move together in one fluid motion.

Golf players that concentrate just on their arms & hands have a tough time learning how to hit with power consistently.

You must learn to coordinate all of your body parts to move as one. The key is not to think too much...and that's tougher than you might think!

Simply turn & feel your arms, shoulders, and upper legs all moving together in synchronicity. Just go with the flow....

C. As You Turn

Once your backswing is in motion, your body will start it's turn and your right arm should begin to fold inside. Your left arm should not be stiff, it should remain somewhat straight. Your right elbow should remain tight to your body throughout the entire backswing.

At this point, everything should be turning naturally and your weight will begin to shift.

Once your club shaft is in the air and pointing straight back, your wrists should begin to bend naturally. Don't tighten your grip. Keep it loose and casual....yet, in control at all times.

Keep turning everything gracefully until your left shoulder is underneath your chin. Your left knee will start to bend toward the right one. The club should now be in the air & positioned on top of your head. You are now ready for the downswing.

D.The Top Of Your Swing

OK. Try to avoid swinging your body at this point. Your club should be in the air & pointing towards your target line. The majority of your weight should be on your right foot, and your left knee should be bent slightly inward.

Your right knee will have a slight bend throughout the entire backswing because it serves to brace your body's power.

(Your left foot may rise slightly at the top of your backswing, but try to keep that to a minimum as it may affect your accuracy. It's better to keep your left foot grounded, if possible.)

E. Everything In Place

The moment of contact is almost here. You should feel a tremendous quantity of energy and power building up, rolled tightly in your body...just waiting to release and send the ball flying.

You should feel confident. The shoulders should be at 90 degrees & your hips should be turned to approximately 45 degrees. (These angles are not set in stone, but they are good guidelines. Every player has different levels of flexibility and technique.)

Strive to practice your backswing as often as possible. You don't need to be at the driving range or on a golf course to do so. Every chance you get, simply stand in front of a mirror to see yourself follow through with the proper technique. Get a friend to check out your backswing for constructive criticism. They can alert you to any tweaks that need to be made.

F. Coming Down

Now you are ready to drive the ball far down the fairway.

Your backswing should have felt controlled & smooth. But, you will now feel a change in tempo. You will release the downswing with full power. Make sure its graceful & easy at the same time.

The switch should appear as graceful and as seamless as possible. The best swings show no sign of using a snapping motion or force.

Unfortunately, this is where many beginner and amateur golfers divert from the pros. Their backswing was initiated perfectly, but their transition is sabotaged by a poor downswing.

G. Start From The Hips

The hips should be the very first body parts to move when bringing the club down. In fact, your entire body is getting ready to uncoil itself starting from the hips. Don't pay too much attention to your arms and hands. They will be the last body parts to turn & should do so naturally.

Once your body starts to uncoil, be sure that your weight begins to shift from your right foot to your left.

This part is crucial!

If you don't shift your weight onto your left foot, you may lose nearly 1/2 of the power and accuracy needed to make a successful shot. At first, you may need to concentrate on shifting your weight.

But, after enough practice, your body should complete the weight distribution naturally. Repetition is key.

H. Uncoil The Body & Release The Energy

When it comes to arms & hands. strive to maintain the natural bend you have in your wrists for as long as possible. They should be the last part of your body to release before hitting the ball.

If you can snap your wrists at the very last moment, you'll undoubtedly transfer more power and strength to the ball. This will drive it longer consistently.

The clubhead should now be coming down and moving faster towards the ball. Good form is essential. As the downswing gains momentum and speed, your entire body should follow through automatically, without interference.

Once the clubhead approaches the ball, you should feel like you are cracking a whip....

I. Let's Do It

Congratulations, your swing is almost there.

We've come so far!

It's now time to make contact with the ball & follow through. Just do it.

The contact you make with the ball and the direction (and loft) that it takes is determined here. If you are going for a straight shot, then the clubhead must move directly within the target line. If you want your ball to go left, then the path of the clubhead should point left, and vice versa, for the right.

Now, at first, it's not that easy to learn how to correctly steer your clubhead in relation to where you want the ball to go. This takes thousands of shots to master.

Your downswing will ultimately release power into the ball. The hands and forearms should rotate slightly counterclockwise (for right-handed golfers).

The clubhead then rotates toward the ball until it's close to perpendicular to your target line...

J. The Follow Through

Every swing results in a "follow through." This describes what your club & body does after making impact with the ball.

Although the ball is well on its way flying through the air, you still need to rotate your body & club in a smooth and graceful fashion.

Once your swing is done, your hips should be turned just enough so that your stomach area faces the target. Most of your weight should be transferred to the left foot and your right foot should be on its toes. Your back should be somewhat straight and the club wrapped around the back of your shoulders.

Here are some more tips & a few points that need repeating...

* Be sure that your head is centered over the ball as much as possible (You may allow a small amount of lateral motion if needed),

* The left arm should remain straight throughout the entire backswing. However, a small amount of bending is acceptable.

* Your left shoulder should be tucked snug underneath your chin.

* Your right arm should be folded smoothly into your side and brush across the rib cage.

* Your right knee should always maintain its bend throughout the backswing.

* Your body weight should shift considerably to the right foot when turning behind the ball.

K. Last Minute Tip

Once your body has stopped moving and your follow through is complete, practice remaining in that position for a few seconds after each shot. Not only can you watch the flight path of the ball, but if your body remains still without tilting over, it's a good sign that you maintained perfect balance & coordination with the shot.

Today, more and more goods are bought on line than ever before. Some of the major reasons for this are; cheaper prices than the high street stores, an on line store can have a larger inventory - more choice; and the internet is becoming more accepted and trusted by consumers.

Golf equipment is no exception to the rule; everything from full sets of golf clubs, golf balls, golf bags, and golf apparel. Even buying shoes on line is becoming more popular.

Some people, though, like to physically touch or try the products before buying. They argue that, especially with shoes, they need to try them on first and walk about the store to see if they are a good fit and comfortable.

One way to overcome this hurdle is to go to your local golf equipment store and try on a few of the brands that you are interested in buying. Once you know the brand, style, and size of the shoes you can then compare prices on line.

I think that you will find that when buying shoes on line you will be able to save money and you will probably find more choice in colors and styles. You will probably find that, if you want to buy Footjoy womens golf shoes, you will need the same size whether you choose Custom DryJoys, LoPro Active, MyJoys Custom Contour, GreenJoys, or Reelfit.

All of the on line golf stores will stock the most popular shoes, including; Adidas, Bite, Callaway Golf, Dexter, Ecco, Etonic, Footjoy, Nike, and Oakley. Also, I have seen on line stores that stock up to 500 styles of shoes and as many closeout models.

Other on line stores stock harder to find brands like; Cotswold, Cougar, Golfstream, Sandbaggers, Tehama, Dunlop, Helle Comfort, Stuburt, and Lady Fairway golf shoes. Even Swedish fashion designer, J. Lindeberg has a collection of exclusive shoes developed in collaboration with Puma.

Another benefit of buying shoes on line is that, apart from the choice in brands and styles, you will find almost every size available. You can buy odd size golf shoes, sizes from 4 up to 18, and different widths. You have to shop around though; some brands specialize in the lower number sizes while others have more choice in the higher sizes.

If you are looking for cheap golf shoes, you will find most on line stores have a collection of closeout, on sale or clearance shoes, sometimes for under $50 for top brand names. Mostly all the on line stores have discounts on every shoe they sell - a lot of them can do this because they don't have to maintain physical stores and so there costs are cheaper.

On line golf stores sometimes have free shipping on orders over $50 or $100; ample return policies, 100% customer satisfaction guarantees, and great customer service. So, there really is no excuse not to give them a try.

So, I am sure if you are looking to buy shoes on line, you will find what you are looking for at the price you are willing to pay. Whether you prefer Adidas Traxion, Tour 360, Powerband, or maybe Nike Air Max, Challenge, or SP-8 golf shoes size 13; you are sure to find them on line.

Dunlop Mini-Squash Foam Squash Ball - Dozen - T913209




Golfing in the Phoenix sunshine makes it a suitable year-round activity for the whole family. You can book Phoenix city golf tee times easily online. You will also see offers for discount Phoenix golf, so that it will be easy for you to enjoy your favorite game often. The game of golf comes with its own jargon, and understanding a bit of that lexicon can make the game much easier to understand.

There are many specific terms for the wide variety of poor shots, for example. A chili dip happens when a golfer chips too short. A wormburner or groundhog killer is a shot when the ball is hit low across the ground, which can cause it to bounce quickly along the surface. If you want to break the rules you might do a foot wedge, when you kick your ball into a better spot. You'll get quite embarrassed if you miss the ball entirely after you swing at it. This event can be called a whiff shot.

If you are new to the game of golf, you might hear more experienced and even professional players using some different terms. A bandit is a player who has a high handicap but plays better than you would expect. After a stroke is taken toward the green, you might hear a golfer say bit, or take a seat, meaning that they want the ball to stop or slow. Not surprisingly, a putting green can also be called the dance floor, and the rough can go by the names of jungle, brillo, or bundi. If a golfer makes a shot where the ball speeds past the hole instead of going in, they call that a taxi.

You can try out all of these useful and colorful words on any of the glorious golf courses that Phoenix has to offer. If you want a challenging day out on the course, head over to Superstition Springs Golf Club. Golfweek Magazine has named it to a list of America's Best Golf Courses, and it offers a number of unique hazards, including water features, large bunkers, and a great deal of rolling ground, adding to both the fun and beauty of this lovely golf course. On the other hand, if Arnold Palmer is one of your golfing heroes, you will not want to miss an opportunity to play at the course that the great man himself designed, the Legend at Arrowhead. Interesting topography is featured at the Glen Lakes Golf Course. It includes pine and palm trees, with the addition of three pristine lakes, that come into play as you travel about this fabulous nine-hole executive course. All of these golf courses and more await you in Phoenix.

Men's Dunlop Marco Golf Shoes - New Closeout Model

The Dunlop Marco golf shoes feature the following:
  • Water resistant synthetic leather upper
  • Durable rubber outsole
  • Helical spike system which delivers confidence and sure footing in all weather conditions
    Customer Review: Great shoes and a great price
    They fit well, look good and perform well and were a fraction of the cost of most golf shoes. What else is there to say?


    Whats the one shot most players would like to add to their game for lower scores? If you answered a high, soft shot within about 60 yards of the green I think youd be right. Most mid to high handicap players want to know how to master the lob wedge.

    From time to time youll be faced with shots that require high carries over bunkers or water hazards to tight pin positions. You could certainly hit those shots with an open faced sand wedge, but a lob wedge makes it much easier. Lob wedges are used most commonly when players need very high trajectories and a lot of spin.

    A good lob wedge can make all the difference

    Lob wedges come in lofts ranging from about 58* to 61*, and some super lob wedges come in lofts from 62* to 65*. Because of its wide sole the lob wedge is sometimes used for high, soft sand shots.

    The problem some of us run into is the low bounce angle on some lob wedges. With their high lofts, low bounce lob wedges can become like shovels and I see a lot of players taking huge divots with them.

    In the hands of a skilled player a lob wedge adds versatility and a new dimension to the short game. If youre looking to add a lob wedge to your set but dont have much experience with one, follow these guidelines before making a purchase

    First, look for lob wedges with no more than 60* of loft. The higher the loft the harder it is to master.

    Second, narrow your choices down to wedges with a bounce angle of at least 8*. Bounce angles of 10* to 13* are preferable.
    Why? Added bounce makes it easier to play without digging too deeply into the turf.

    Another benefit? More bounce makes it useful as a sand wedge. A low bounce lob wedge can be a tricky play from the sand.

    Develop your technique for more effective wedge shots

    Whats one of the biggest stumbling blocks to hitting the lob wedge? Confidence. Its easy to tighten up and that limits your range of motion. The lob requires a soft touch; anxiety makes taking a good pass at the ball more difficult.

    It is possible to master the high soft wedge shot. Use these keys to help groove the right swing:

  • Keep your weight evenly balanced between your feet. Dont play the ball too far forward or too far backward in your stance.
  • Take a three quarter swing; dont take the club past parallel.
  • Try to feel your hands leading the clubhead at impact.
  • Make sure you keep accelerating through the ball.

    The lob wedge does work in the right situations

    The lob wedge is the right club when youre faced with shots that require high trajectories and very soft landings. For flying over hazards and bunkers a lob wedge is a necessity.

    Unless you need that extra carry, think twice before using a lob wedge. Harvey Penick was an advocate of chipping the ball whenever possible. He felt using lower lofts to get the ball rolling as soon as possible was the best way to get closer to the hole.

    You can easily prove this for yourself. Stand off the green about 40 feet from the hole. Try these two methods and see which gets the ball closer. First, lob the ball to the hole with a high trajectory. Then roll the ball to the hole, getting it on ground as soon as possible.

    My guess is youll get it a lot closer by rolling it like a billiard ball. When you put a lob wedge in your bag, use it when you really need to. I see a lot of players trying to lob the ball when they might do better chipping it.

    An extra wedge also changes set make-up

    Adding the lob wedge means you have to make a decision about which clubs to keep in your 14 club rotation. Most players drop a long iron in favor of the added wedge.

    What are the advantages?

    Thats easy. Multi-wedge sets let you take full swings on tough yardage shots. Its easier to make full swings with a more lofted club than to make partial swings with a less lofted club. A full swing builds confidence, and increases distance control. A good lob wedge can help you avoid an awkward situation when youre between clubs.

    Summing things up

    Adding a lob wedge makes you more effective from within 60 yards of the pin. When you miss greens, youre faced with short shots that require high carries. In many cases the lob wedge will be your only effective weapon.

    Choose a wedge with the right loft and bounce angle, then take some time to get accustomed to the higher loft. Your one swing thought should be to accelerate through impact. Do that, and hitting high, soft wedge shots becomes a lot easier.

    Men's Dunlop Addison Golf Shoes - New Closeout Model

    The Dunlop Addison golf shoes feature the following:
  • Water resistant synthetic leather upper
  • Durable rubber outsole
  • Helical spike system which delivers confidence and sure footing in all weather conditions


    When you are 90 yards out from the green, or closer, do you ever notice that your pitch shots are not crisp, they run along the ground or do not travel the required distance to rise in the air and land softly beside the hole?

    The first thing to do is have a look at your grip.

    This is number one on your check list.
    However, I doubt if this will be the problem.

    Next have a look at your swing and see if it is too full.

    If it is too full, you will decelerate on your down swing.
    This is because you know a full swing will go too far.
    As a result you will try to compensate by hitting the ball more gently.

    The only way you can do this is to decelerate if the back swing is too full.
    This means that you are not hitting your golf shot with the correct firmness or authority.

    You will have to correct this on the practice fairway.

    Start with a short distance and see if you can achieve this with a minimum of swing.

    You will have to hit the ball quite hard to achieve what you are trying to do.
    This means firmness, crispness and authority.
    This is what you want.

    Try to get the feel of this and take it out onto the course.

    Next try to hit the ball different distances using the same technique.

    Move to the nine iron from your pitching wedge when the distance is so great that you have to strain and lose accuracy.

    Pretend your golf club is the big hand of a clock.
    Find out how far the ball travels when you take your club back to 8, 9, 10, 11 o clock while hitting with the same firmness and authority.

    Dunlop Loco Jr Putter (Right-Handed, Age 3-5)




    The perfect golf swing drill is a joy to behold. And yet it is not too hard to achieve.

    The perfect golf swing drill starts with a proper back swing with the golf club swung right back to the limit of your body. At this segment of the perfect golf swing drill your mind should be preparing for the rotation of your body and the arm extension.

    Next, the movements of the perfect golf swing drill moves to the down swing, which starts with the lower part of the body, including the legs and hips. A transfer of weight will take place from back to front with the knees, thighs and hips all moving forward.

    The perfect golf swing drill ends with the body weight on the outside of the front heel and the inside of the rear foot.

    Perfect golf swing drill is easy when your body is prepared and conditioned to achieve it. However perfect golf swing drill can be very difficult for a golfer not involved in any golf specific exercise designed to condition and prepare their muscles and body in general for the strain and pressure that golf usually brings.

    Most professionals take their golf-specific exercises very seriously, but some amateurs are reluctant to let go of the so-called good old days when exercise had no role in the leisure sport of golf. Still they are finding the going increasingly difficult as more and more golfers embrace golf exercise programs.

    There is no doubt that the perfect golf swing drill happens only with those whose muscles and bodies have been prepared.
