Here it is in a nutshell: how to swing the golf club for accuracy and power. Once you have addressed the ball properly, you use your front knee as a fulcrum for the backswing and the swing forward. The backswing coils up the power in your upper body. A good forward swing and impact releases that energy in a clean and controlled manner. This is the basic swing and it takes a lot of practice as well as an understanding of the elements of the perfect golf swing. But there are variations on this basic swing and you must learn how to hit these too if you’re serious about becoming a better golfer. You must learn how to control the trajectory of your shots.
