These are the top 5 golf swing tips handed down by generations of golf pros that are pure RUBBISH!!
These 5 golf swing fallacies have done more harm to golfer's swings through the ages than all other golf swing tips combined. I believe these 5 so called "golf swing tips" are the reason the average golfer's handicap has stayed the same for the past 20 years - Even with all the advancements in golf equipment technology.
I will be pulling the curtain back on some golf swing tips you may consider as gospel...so please keep an open mind.
Top 5 Golf Fallacies That Are Ruining Golfer's Game:
1. RELAX - Pure rubbish! How many times have you heard this golf swing tip from a golf pro or a playing partner? The golf swing is a violent action - is there any other violent action you take when you relax? - of course not - This is foolish advice.
2. Be Loose. This is the second cousin of "Relax". When you are "loose" in the golf swing your hips are NOT restricted therefore you will NOT generate that all important coil in your backswing - the result - NO POWER!
3. Take The Club Back Inside - More rubbish! I'm sure you've heard many times how the correct golf swing is from the inside. So some golfers yank the club way inside early in their backswing thinking this will allow them to hit from the inside. These golfers are shocked when they still hit the golf ball from the outside. Hitting the golf ball from the inside comes from proper hip and shoulder action at the start of the downswing. You can take the club back way outside and still hit the ball from the inside - look at Jim Furyk - he takes the club way back to the outside however his move from the top of the swing is pure and from the inside.
4. The Club Head Follows The Same Path Going Back As It Does Coming Down. Again, this golf swing tip has been misguiding golfers for generations. The path of the clubface is much more to the inside during the downswing than during the backswing in a sound golf swing. The reason is a fundamentally sound golf swing incorporates a lateral bump of the left hip toward the target to start the downswing from the top. This action of the left hip automatically puts the path of the clubface much more to the inside than the path going back.
5. Turn The Hips To The Left To Start The Downswing. This golf fallacy causes golfers to "spin out" during the downswing and the result is a total mis-hit of the golf ball. The reason being the "spinning of the hips" throws the arc of the swing to the outside coming down causing a shank or mishit. Again, the correct move is a lateral shift of the left hip to start the downswing and the hips will then turn automatically. It is possible to NOT have this lateral shift and still turn the hips from the top - however, it is IMPOSSIBLE to have the lateral shift of the left hip to start the downswing and the hips NOT turn.
Hit 'em Long and Straight!

Catfish have a very tuned sensory system that allows them to taste catfish bait from sometimes 15ft away.

This is definitely an advantage on any waters where there is a current because the smell and taste drift down stream. Get Your Free Fishing Downloads Here!
