Think a cup of coffee is on the table in front of you and you try to pick it up with loose grip of your fingers but your firm arms. Can you guess the consequence? Perhaps the cup will be dropped. The same thing will happen in case of a golf club.

If you wish to play a good swing, hold the golf club firmly in your fingers. This will help you to be in line with the shot and you will hit the ball to its destined target. This also helps to bounce off the club correctly.

Now when you learnt the skill of holding the club in your firm fingers and attain a fluid motion, you will able to play various shots in a creative manner. Playing your best golf is at your finger grips.

There are different ways in which you can swing your golf club. The modern swing, or also known as the lower body swing or total body swing, is the most important swing. In most young golfers who have lean body and are the first timers, a particular type of swing is visible, which is called “tail swings the dog”. When a young boy swings the club with his arms, his body gets twisted a little across the front portion of his body due to the movement of his arms and the club. A young boy usually has a flexible and supple torso that easily moves about in space in reaction to the forces that come into play by the active movement of his arms and club.

On the other hand, most overweight men in their middle-age, due to their heavy, non-flexible central torso, play a swing called “dog swings the tail”. A man with bulky body is unable to bend his torso complying to the movement of his arms across the front portion of the body and hence plays this type of swing.
