Week 6 Q & A 681
Q.1 Are you advised to try and take a straight divot to have any chance of hitting a good golf shot?
A. Explain in your own words your understanding of this.
The golf swing is formed around a circle. If you take a straight divot, the ball could move either way when it’s coming down from the sky because the wind will drift the ball when the compression is gone from the ball after it reaches its apex. You won’t know how it will move your ball if you try and take straight divots. You must understand that if you want to curve or fade the ball, you need to take a left divot, so it comes into your target when you account for the wind for that shot you want to play. Then if you're going to draw the ball, you take a proper divot. This will let it curve and spin with the draw you need to understand the wind. Sometimes you can hold off the ball in the shot when playing in the crosswind. When taking a divot, imagine you are going to dive into a swimming pool, and you want to get your maximum distance from the dive. This should be the type of divot you take from the ground, a nice sledder of grass that is not too deep but still held together so that you can put it back where you hit your shot from every shot you play in golf. You have to try and take a divot to get a maximum spin. try and let the wind be your friend when playing golf.
Q.2 Are you advised you need a tight grip hold the club in your hands to hit the ball with power in your golf swing?
A. Explain in your own words what you do to grip the golf club.
If you try and hit the ball with the power, you will lose the distance and control of your golf shots instead; you need to understand the difference between power and strength because you need strength to create speed to spin the ball. It would help if you could cradle the club in your hands. This will get you to use your fingers to get the maximum spin. A tight grip is different to a firm grip. You need to understand the difference. A strong grip generates speed two spin the ball. A firm grip creates the power to knock something down, like a building. When you take a few rehearsal swings, you will see it takes the tension out of your grip. This is why you always take rehearsals before you play any golf shots. So you will have speed in your hands.
Q.3 Are you advised to have your club on a plane to hit your targets and good golf shots?
A. Explain your understanding of plane for golt swing.
The club's shaft only gives you the plane you are swinging the club on, so when you swing the club, you are always on the plane but not always on the right path; you need to swing the shaft on the path you want to launch the ball on to hit your target, then You need to understand the face of the club give you the curve to where you want it to finish. Also, it gives you the type of spin you want on the ball to hit your targets. There is two part to the golf swing. The first one is the line the ball starts on, and the second is the angle it curve in the air, it essential to know this in your golf swing.
Q.4 Are you advised to stay quiet and focus on the ball when you address the golf ball?
A. Explain in your own wards your understanding of this?
If you stay quiet and stay quiet and focus on the ball, your subconscious mind won’t swing beyond the ball. It would help you a lot if you start whispering or talking out loud to detect the subconscious mind to let you swing the club free. Suppose you do this for a short while; you will start seeing a significant improvement in your golf.
Q.5 Are you advised to have your feet planted firmly on the ground so you can push off the ground to get more distance?
A. Explain in your own words what this means to you for your golf swing.
If your knees are planted firmly on the ground, your weight will be on your heels and reduce the way you rotate to the target, causing you to fall backwards and lose balance when you swing the club. Your weight should be on your arches. This is the middle of your foot that will always give you good footwork and balance in your golf swing so you can rotate naturally two your target.
