One of the things most golfers want to know is, how do I fix my golf swing. As you keep reading, I describe some of the different ways you can go about it. After going through them, it's going to be up to you to decide which approach is the best for you.
Swing Fix 1 - Buy New Clubs
At one time or another, most golfers have thought the buying new clubs was going to instantly change their game. Buying new club is not to be totally discounted because many people are not playing with the correct equipment for their swing, or they haven't had their clubs fitted. What you should do, is find an experienced clubfitter and have your clubs fitted and your swing checked as soon as you can.
There's another little know way that buying new clubs can fix your swing. Newer clubs feel different from your old clubs. Because they feel different, hitting shots with them causes you to take your mind off of your swing. This new feeling totally clears your mind but it doesn't last long. A couple of weeks after using your new clubs, they don't feel all that different so you start thinking about your swing again. The best thing to do would be to stop experimenting with new clubs. As I mentioned earlier, try to find a professional clubfitter and get properly fitted. Then, stay focused on working on your swing.
Swing Fix 2 - Swing Tips
We've all picked up the latest golf magazine and tried the latest tip hoping it will magically get our game back on track. The problem is, most people don't know their swing well enough to determine if, in fact, these tips would apply to their swing. If you don't know your swing well enough, and you try these tips, you may actually be making your swing worse. Plus, a tip, in most instances, is just that ... a tip. It's not necessarily going to improve your fundamentals.
An example of a tip would be to move your hands into a stronger grip position. Even though a tip like this may help you square the clubface better through impact, you're still not doing the correct grip. You should be very careful the next time you go to work on the latest tip you find in a magazine, or from your buddy. What you should do, is go over the tip with your head professional or teacher to determine whether or not this tip would be something you should pursue. Only then should you try it. It it works, that's fantastic!
Swing Fix 3 - Lack of Focus
The great majority of golfers are trying to find the miracle cure so they try to make way too many changes at the same time. This approach will never work. Unfortunately, this will be too confusing. Plus, you may end up trying so many different things that you forget what actually worked. Even if you had some success, it may have just been luck. The only way you truly know if this way of working on your swing is a success is if you see long term results.
Swing Fix 4 - Change One Thing at a Time
The best way you should work on fixing your swing, is to take it one step at a time and work on one thing only. If you take this approach, you remain focused on that one thing therefore, you'll not be experimenting. If you're going to work on your swing this way, then you're going to need a swing coach or a method to follow. By working on your swing this way, you solidify the changes because you are only focused on one thing at a time. I know, most golfers think this is going to take a long time. If you compare this way to the other fixes I described, you'll make progress faster this way.
This is because the other approaches only give you a short term fix whereas, working on only only area of your swing, creates proper mechanics that you will have well into the future.
