Golf Tip: Keep It Smooth

tempo

Finding the right tempo for your golf swing is more important than seeing how hard you can hit the golf ball.  Swinging harder often creates tension in your grip and arms which actually slows down your clubhead speed and increases the likelihood of off-center hits.  The resulting shot is shorter and more off-line than if you would have simply made a smoother swing focusing on center contact. When you want to reach for some extra distance, focus on swinging at a tempo that you can control.  Focus on maintaining good posture and balance.  If you cannot hold your finish position, you are swinging too hard!  Remember, harder does not equal farther.
