T&C PT3: LS1 INTRO TO FULL SWING
THE LAWS
six laws
centeredness of contact
contact of face relative to sweet spot
clubface angle
direction of clubface at impact
clubhead path
direction club is moving
clubhead speed
speed of clubhead traveling before impact
angle of approach
vertical direction of the clubhead's geometric center movement at max compression
dynamic loft
vertical clubface orientation at the center point of contact between the clubface and the golf ball at max compression
predict the flight of the ball
physical forces that determine the distance and direction of the ball
distance factors
clubhead speed
centeredness of contact
angle of approach
dynamic loft
Direction factors
clubface angle
clubhead path
centeredness of contact
dynamic loft
SWING PRINCIPLES
pre-swing principle
set-up
influences all six laws
grip
greatest influence upon clubface position
placement
positioning
pressure
precision
aim
most influential, strong influence on path
In-swing principles
swing plane
swing plane
angle of club shaft relative to the ball and ground
arc width
degree of extension of arms and hands away from the center of rotation
arc length
distance the clubhead travels from its completed backswing to the forward swing
lever system
left arm and club during backswing
release
correct impact position
dynamic balance
transfer of body mass during the swing
swing center
torso rotation or center of rotation
body rotation
shoulders and hips around a swing center
arm swing
arms swing up and down as body rotates
transition or slotting the club
crossroads of the back swing and down swing
clubhead lag
part of the lever system, wrist angle
connection
arms the same distance from the body all the way through the swing
lead wrist position at impact
position of wrist, body, and club
tempo
speed of the golf motion
timing
proper sequence of club movement
rythym
balance between backswing and downswing
PREFERENCES
possibilities are limitless
there are 6 laws
there are 14 principles
teaching golf is not exact science
PRE-SWING FUNDAMENTALS
Set-up
adjusted his body to the correct attitude in relation to the ball, the lie, and the desired shot
grip
many variations
golfers agree the palms should be almost parallel
girp options
vardon grip
baseball grip
overlap
interlock
aim
target game
aiming the clubface
leading edge of clubface
body alignments
aim several components of the body
don't hit at the ball
feet, knees, hips, shoulders
width of stance
weight distribution
toe/heel balance
amount of foot flare
direction of stance
posture
relax
straight back
head up
tilt
Ball position
ball must be perfect
no universal location for everyone
Distance from the ball
body types have different preferences
swing technique also influences the ball position
weight distribution
hand players set up more to the left
body players set up more to the right
front-to-back balance
heel to toe
IN-SWING FUNDAMENTALS
swing plane
flat swing vs steep swing
influences angle of approach
flatter swing stays connected
steep swing is more accurate if timed properly
right arm dictates shaft plane
arc width
wide arc on backswing
short arc on forward swing
influences speed
center contact
arc length
tailored to the length of the shot
