A Professional Proper Golf Swing An ideal way to start a game of golf is to start it with the proper golf swing. By doing so, you will get the ball to land in close proximity to the hole. Then it is a question of putting it. Technically speaking, the golf swing is nothing but applied physics. The movement of the club during the swing produces a force on the clubface that is transferred to the ball at the moment of impact. This transferred kinetic energy is the energy that carries the ball during its flight. The more the energy, the more the distance traveled. Professional golfers, with the exception of Tiger Woods, can usually achieve a club head velocity of nearly a hundred miles per hour (mph). Tiger Woods was once clocked at 125 mph. Another component that is required for a proper golf swing is known as the lie angle. For the uninitiated, the lie angle is that angle between the centerline of the club shaft and the sole or bottom of the club. This is an important factor that has an effect on the accuracy of the shot. Another reason why the lie angle is important is that golfers come in many sizes and unless they have a club with a lie angle fitted to their physique, their shot is not going to be perfect. Most standard off-the-rack clubs have a lie angle of about 12 degrees. It is the belief of one scientist that a 7.5-degree would be optimal for most golfers. Professional golfers have lie angle fitted clubs that suits them. There are four elements that you have to know to achieve the proper golf swing "Golfclub Hamburg" First, at the culmination of the backswing, you should have stretched as far back as possible with your pivoting torso directly above your right leg. This will extend the range of your downswing movement.
