7 Common Ball Flight Stuggles for Golfers
All golfers should know about the seven ball flight problem areas that most golfers face.Now once a golfer faces one of these problems, it is normally a recurring pattern. Everyone gets in a little “rut” with their golf swing sometimes.A few are worse than others, and some last for longer periods of time.When it happens, everyone wonders where the “perfect swing” that they had just a few weeks ago went.
When we golfers begin to understand these seven swing faults, it becomes much easier to get our swing back when we get into one of these “ruts” with our swing.This is a list of the seven different problems most golfers face (from the right-handed perspective)
1. Fades (the ball starts straight and then curves right)
2. Hooking (the ball starts straight and then curves left)
3. Pushing (the ball goes straight right)
4. Pulls (the ball goes straight left)
5. Fat Shots (the club digs into ground before making contact with the ball)
6. Thin Shots or Topping (the club makes contact with the top of the ball – making the ball fly very low)
7. Lack of Distance (ball doesn’t seem to go very far)
There are some may be the rare exception that looks at this list and says “I don’t have any of these problems.” However, every golfer – no matter what level of play- is going to have one of these problems with their swing at some point.And often, they make an appearance more than we like to admit.A lot of golfers spend the whole season chasing down and correcting a variety of problems that have “popped up” in their swing.
Knowing these problem areas is only the start of the process. The real secret is identifying which problem you have and how to fix it. I found a set of three free golf videos you can check out that address some of these swing issues. The instruction in these videos will show you how to learn the full swing quickly and easily, its unigue because they take evaluations of real student golf swings so that you can see how easy these corrections can be identified and corrected.
Happy Golfing!
