i. Golf Tips

by WAYNE GAMBORSKI and DENNY McARTHUR

Undoubtably, the most important part of the golf swing is the ad dress position and the grip.

It seems as though it hag been endlessly emphasized to the degree where the point is moot. Yet is remaiis a sore point of the teacher. Not all of us will swing the golf club like a touring professional, but we feel that the average player should be able to grip and address the ball much like the pro.

Therefore, we must stress the value of doing it correctly. The position of address, including the grip, to a great extent determines what occurs during the swing. For example, a poor grip forces the player to make com pensations in the swing itself to overcome the poor grip. And, as we all know, two wrongs do normakea right

The grip is our only connection with the golf club, and this in itself should show its importance. The problem we see most often in the grip is improper positioning of the left hand. Place the grip of the club across the middle joint of tht index finger, and under the fleshy pad of the palm. The right hand is placed on the club so that the palm of the right hand covers the left thumb.

The keys toa good grip are

© The gripis placed under the fleshy part of the left hand

© The back of the left hand and the palm of the right face the target

©» The grip pressure is just enough to hold on to the club, but not to the point where you strangle the club

The set up, which is composed of alignment and posture, provides the foundation for the swing. To be aligned propetly to the target, the feet, knees, hips and shoulders are parallel to the intended target. All great athletes have two things in common, balance and concentration, Balance is provided by correct posture. To achieve correct posture the feet should be shoulder width apart, thus resulting in the feet, knees, hips and shoulders being aligned vertically. The weight is distributed evenly bet ween the feet, the knees slightly flexed, and the body bent slightly from the waist. You are now in an athletic position, much like a weightlifter, track star, or tour professional

Unfortunately, the importance of the grip and position of address cannot be adequately covered in this format, thus we suggest purchasing an instructional golf book or video cassette and follow the information meticulously

Good luck and good golfing
