Balance is crucial to hitting consistent and powerful golf shots. I talk a lot about developing your golf swing power from the ground up (not through the arms); well if you don’t have good balance you are building your swing on unsteady ground. A big no no.
In this video golf professional Bill McKinney shows you the absolute easiest way to improve the balance of your golf swing. This simple little golf drill is so easy you can do it at home, in your back yard, or in your garage with some wiffle balls. The best part is you probably have all the materials you need in your garage right now (and by materials I mean a 3 ft. long 2×2 or 2×4). Check out the video below.
This simple tip gives you a cheap and easy way to improve you golf swing by forcing your body to learn how to balance itself during a golf swing. All you need to do is simply address the golf ball with the board under your feet (check out the video if you can’t visualize this) and make a couple of pitch shots. You may be a bit wobbly at first, but your body will figure out how to balance itself after some practice.
Teaching yourself how to balance your body during the golf swing is crucial. Proper balance gives you the ability to create massive power to put into your golf swing. This is how the pro develop enough power to consistently hit 300+ yard tee shots. It may seem simple (and it actually is), but if you never practice your golf swing balance you will never be able to improve it.
Stay tuned for more great tips. Till Next Time…
