Five Different Types of spin.
Video 1 Question 5:
Did you know only 3 per cent of all golfers today play golf with ball spin? This is one of the main reasons that most golfers never reach there through potential playing golf. You have to think that golf is a ball sport; in all ball sports, the ball will rotates, spins, and curves. The athlete in whatever sport has the most control over the ball they are playing mostly gets the best results. Well, golf is no different. In golf, the ball rotates and spins five different ways for all golf shots you will have to take. Most amateur think of three different types of spin, backspin that they don’t understand how it never works for them. Then you have a left spin that draws or hooks the golf ball. Most golfers would love to be able to master this shot. Then you have the ball that fades or slices. Nearly ninety per cent of all amateurs play golf with this type of spin and can never control how much it slices, You then have overspin. This is a shot that amature are told to hit off the tee to get more distance it never makes sense, because if any ball is hit with overspin, it’s going to dip and run along the ground if you think about this, so it should only be used for keeping the ball low under trees and putting because it helps to track the ball when rolling on the putting surface and stops the ball from wobble when going towards the hole, also hold the line better. The last type of spin is check spin, Most amature can't control this shot because there club ends up two high on the back swing and two high on the throught swing to get it to check you need to grip the club right down at the end of the grip where the rubber meets the metal the reason behind this is you will get more spin if you shorten the club and swing with the same enegry, to get the same distance.
Starting with the grip, knowing the quality of the golf ball you play with, the condition of the green and other vital points.
start practising backspin at home.
