In this part right here, when we talk about the swing we don’t mean the entire swing itself but the way the arm swings around the body. This of course is very important and a common area where many mistakes are made. No doubt this is because many sports involve some type of arm swing and yet each type of swing is going to be unique to that sport. Football players need to throw a football differently than a baseball players throws a baseball, and hitting a hockey puck with a hockey stick is very different than how you hit a baseball with a baseball bat.
The way an arm swings around the body in golf is the biggest part of common mistakes made by golfers. Usually they lift the club up high with their arms and then pull them down steeply, often trying to get as much power behind it as possible. Anyone that slices is probably making this mistake. When the arms are pulled up around and behind the body and then they swing back down steeply, this creates a huge curve or arc that the ball will naturally follow. The arms swing across the body which in turn slides sideways.
The arms, body, and club all need to work together during a swing. This will mean maximum power and control. And if the swing is done correctly, this will not set the ball off course and into a slice. Let’s go over a few more details about all those elements involved in the actual swing itself and you can see how this is true point by point.
