GROOVE A SMOOTH TAKEAWAY FOR A SMOOTH
SWING
By Nick Bayley
If you want to start your swing off smoothly here's
something you should incorporate into your swing.
When addressing any shot (even putts), you should
just hover the club above the ground. Do not
ground the club. A lot of great players do this,
including Jack Nicklaus.
The advantages are that you have the entire weight
of the club in your hands. And you don't have to
pick the club up and then move it away. You will be
more relaxed and ready to go when you're starting
the swing.
This will take some time to get used to, but the
advantages will be worth any temporary feelings of
discomfort. So do this for every shot you play for at
least 30 days, and you'll notice your take-aways are
smoother -- and you'll be more in control. Plus your
swing will be smoother.
And even though this is a short and simple drill don't
take it for granted, because if you make this into a
habit you will improve your swing and your entire golf
game for that matter.
