Why are all Golf Swings Different?
Understanding why all golf swings are different is very important. All beginning instructors need to remember that all golf swings are as unique as a fingerprint. It tells us that there is no one way to do it.
The next question is:
“What are the things that make all swings unique?”
The following is a catalog of considerations to help identify individual differences in your swing:
- Desired ball flight (fade, draw, high, low, etc.)
- The golfer’s body type and length of the body segments—tall and thin, short and stocky, medium build, toned and muscular, long bones or short bones
- Flexibility level
- Muscularity and strength in the upper body and lower body
- Eye dominance (right vs. left)
- Right-handed vs. left-handed
- Neuromuscular control and athleticism
- Tension level in the hands, arms, and shoulders
