Welcome to part 2 of my quick and simple golf tips which I'm sure will help all golfers improve their skills. This time we are dealing with some quick tips to build a better golf swing.

1) To find a better sense of tempo in your swing relax your grip pressure before you start and make the takeaway of your swing a smooth, unhurried movement.

2) When you complete a full swing, remember to try and remain poised and balanced for a couple of seconds and then recoil the club back in front of you pointing it at the target.

3) To hit a power drive, relax your hands and arms as you start your swing and ensure you make a full shoulder turn into your backswing.

4) The transition from backswing to downswing is and should be the slowest phase of your swing. Forcing the transition to be fast will result in hitting at the ball instead of swing through it.

5) As we start the downswing it is good to feel the hands drop and not drvie down, let gravitiy do what comes naturally. This ensures we drop inside to the ball and not drive forward forcing an out to in strike.

6) In the address position, the body should feel live and a

ctive and the arms feel passive. It is the body that anticipates movement which allows the arms to swing the club smoothly.

7) Before you play the shot, try and formulate a pre short routine and carry it out before every shot you take. This will help you to keep more focused and develop a more consistent swing thought.

As always, enjoy your golf and keep on playing.
