Most amateur golfers spend years searching for the secrets to better golf- usually through magazines, videos, websites and the occasional lesson. This leads to a head full of swing thoughts and mental images that are often conflicting, leading to further confusion and an endless circle of searching.
To truly play better golf you must first understand that learning the game is a process. Skipping through the process is very much like getting behind in Algebra class, unless you're gifted you will just never catch up!
So the first thing every golfer must do is learn the basic fundamentals like grip, posture and alignment which should be the easiest part of the game because there is no movement of the club or body!
Once you have the basics down then you are ready for the 3 steps to successful golf.
1. Hand control
To simplify, this means to learn to control how the hands and wrists move throughout the swing.
2. Arm control
The arms must be trained how to move on the vertical and horizontal planes.
3. Body control
The body must be trained how to move in sequence and balance to support the swinging motion.
For the most effective learning you must train these the zones: hands, arms, and body in the right order. This is how we teach the game at the Medicus Golf, and this is why our players improve!!
