How To Develop A Perfect Golf Swing To Improve Your Game
By: Gregg Hall
If you are going to be playing golf any time soon then you are going to need more then just agility. You are going to need to be totally limber and focused on the game or you are not going to do so well. Even though you may not need endurance during a game of golf you will need to be focused the entire time and not over swing and get nervous or your game is done. If you want to get a good score and win games then you need to get your swing down, a perfect swing is the missing piece that you need to win a game. If you cannot make a good swing then you will not be able to play the game. You need to be able to swing the club perfect before you start playing real games. You will want to play not having to keep buying balls every hole. Just get your swing down to perfection and then you can start playing games of golf. There isn't anything more important in golf then getting your swing down.
So if you and your family love to golf and you have kids then you should think about sending your kids to golf school there are numerous schools across the country to go to. If you still can at least hit the ball win you swing then these schools won't be able to teach you much. The golf swing needs everything to work together to make one thing work your golf swing. Your upper body needs to be inline and you just need to be focused when you are about to make a swing.
When you are about to make a swing your feet should almost always be shoulder length apart in your stance if they are not then you need to make them that way. If you are using a wider club then you can spread your feet a few more inches apart. If you are using a shorter club then you will need your feet to be closer together. You will just want to have a god stance when you are about to swing. Having proper stance in golf is what having a perfect swing means if you do not have a good stance then you is not going to have a pretty swing.
Your arms and legs need to work together to help you swing to the fullest. If not then you are going to have one ugly swing. Your hands and wrists then need to work together as well to perform a nice swing. After you have all your body parts aligned and you are ready to swing be sure that you have your stance correct and then you can begin to make your swing. Your swing needs to be to the stance of the club so make sure that you are swinging with the right stance when you are playing a game of golf. The longer the club the wider the stance the shorter the club the smaller the stance.

A proper grip will reduce your tendency to slice. A good grip will keep the clubhead square at impact and keep the shaft from turning in your hands. Pictured is the popular overlap grip, also known as the Vardon grip.

Cast Iron Golf Clubs Or Forged?
By: Lee MacRae
Are you looking to buy new golf clubs? Finding it difficult to determine what will work the best for you? Newcomers especially can become bewildered by the large variety of golf clubs you see when you are looking to buy.
We will go through a few basic tips to help you determine which golf clubs are right for you.
First of all, it can be stated that standard golf clubs will work for just about anyone standing between 5 to six feet in height. That goes every bit for both men and women. Taller or shorter? Then custom clubs may now come in to the picture.
Cast Iron or Forged Iron Golf Club?
The quick answer is "go cast iron".
Why, you ask? Because of the bigger "sweet spot" we tend to find on clubs made with cast iron. This is the are in the center of the club face where "forces" are said to be perfectly balanced to deliver the perfect shot. The bigger the sweet spot, the better chance of hitting well it every time. It makes it a little easier to hit the "bulls eye" every time on your shots. You can see why beginners are usually told to stay with cast iron clubs Without a steady consistant swing, a larger striking area will produce better shots overall. This is the major reason why you see larger or even "oversized" clubs made, especially the oversized drivers today. These clubs allow for a larger sweet spot and make the game a lot easier for the average player
With forged iron clubs you have the exact opposite. A smaller sweet spot that makes your drives that much harder to hit well.
So why are forged clubs even made?
Well, because they are made of a softer steel, they offer a better "feel" on each and every shot. The more seasoned player, especially the pros on the circuit, don't need that larger sweet spot. They have a more consistant swing plane and strike the ball with far more accuracy. They use the "feel" of the the forged iron clubs to influence the flight of the ball in a way that a beginner or average player can't.
The next item to consider is the material for the shaft. Will it be composite or steel?
The basic factor to consider here is swing speed. How fast do you swing your golf clubs? Slower swing speeds will send you over to the composite shafted golf clubs. Slower swing speeds mean less distance on your shots. Not a good thing. Composite shafts will allow you to get that much needed distance on your shots. And even within the composite shaft class, you will find variations in flex and materials that will affect your game.
On the other hand, if you already have good distance on your shots due to good swing speed, you can add some touch and feel to your game very similar to that obtained by using the forged iron clubs. You get the best of both worlds.
Determining your own swing speed is not difficult. If you don't have a local pro shop with the right equipment, you can find small microwave Doppler radar devices that are run by AAA batterieson the market. You simply set it near your tee and swing away.
So there you have it. Just a few quick tips but ones that will start you down the path to finding the right clubs for your game. Take the time to try different clubs and see how they hinder or help your game. If possible, even try different types of composite shafts. Different manufacturers will have different standards for shaft flex and so on. Check out as many as possible and take note of how each works for you.
If you implement these tips and work on them, you will be certain to develop a better drive within a short period of time. Just keep on practicing and working on your improvement. It's only a matter of time before your scores begin to drop.

Some Golf Ideas
Golf Swing
You can�t fire a gun unless you pull the trigger, right? A similar concept also applies to the golf swing, which also usually requires a �trigger move� to get the body moving. Now, not everyone has a trigger, some manage to swing well from a static position to a dynamic position. But for the rest of us who often find confusion when it comes to where to start the golf swing, a trigger move can help you start swinging in a fluid and consistent manner.
