How timing the golf swing is so critical to consistent shots

Timing the golf swing is extremely critical. It is not possible to complete a good golf swing or execute the perfect golf swing without getting you timing right.

To improve the timing of your golf swing, you will require both stretch exercises and strength exercises. The aim of this is to insure that you retain flexibility to execute good golf swings. The timing of your golf swing is a critical part of your game and so to ensure that you continue to improve and enjoy this wonderful game, get involved in an exercise program. It is useless to get it all right on your mind when your body and the muscles are not prepared to obey instructions and follow through. There is no way you will get timing of the golf swing right without the co-operation of your body and muscles.

Many times golfers understands and grasps the golf swing technique but execution ends up being very poor because the weak muscles are not able to take the strain and pressure that is necessary for good and perfect timing when it comes to the golf swing.

The golf swing is a physically demanding movement. Until golfers realize this, their pursuit of the perfect swing will never be achieved.

How Do Get Tempo?

One of the best tempo swingers on the tour is Ernie Els! But what is tempo?
Tempo in the swing is a combination of many easy things to do. It is the sequencing of each part of the swing and it is the feel part. Putting this together and you'll not only kill the ball but also have tempo!

Interconnecting each phase of the swing, address, take-away, backswing, downswing, follow through, and impact all tie together to gives us tempo. "Feel" for the clubhead is also a part of tempo. Developing tempo in a golf swing is a task that requires patience, practice, and time. There is really no magical formula or instruction anyone can give you to start you playing with goog tempo. One day at the driving range doesn't do it either. Start slowly, practice, and devotion will soon have you developing silky smooth tempo. Training aids, teaching instructions, and practice...put it all together and you will have a swing with tempo and the control and distance that will have others watching you. You will kill them!!

Your test in Sand

Once in a while, do you ever feel as though your walk game is nothing more than a walk in the sand at the beach? Everything one does just ends up flat. There is an easy way to rid yourself of this fear and pop the ball right out and possibly par the hole. Hit about an inch behind the ball in the trap. This is what I like to call "spanking" it. Swing completely through the sand with the swing and the sand will cushion the ball and make it land softly on the green. Make sure you "spank" it hard enough and follow through. Your walk at the beach will be more enjoyable!!
