How to Develop Effortless Power in your Golf Swing

Use these instructions and golf tips in order to promote effortless power in your golf swing.

Golfers that suffer from powerless effort – the opposite of effortless power – oftentimes swing a golf club using only their arms. They don’t involve their body in their golf swing, working very hard for very little result in the form of shot distances.

Follow this drill and tips in order to make sure to involve your whole body.

Position yourself as you would for a golf setup but place your golf club across your arms, in front of your chest, with the end of the club pointing towards the target.

Turn your upper body away from the target as you would for a proper backswing and notice how the grip end of the club moves back towards the golf ball in front of you. You may notice how your back is stretching as you rotate your upper body back and this may feel very different than usual, especially if you are used to swinging using only your arms.

Now turn through the other way in what would be your downswing and make sure that the other end of the club – the one with the clubhead – now points at the ball in what would be your impact position.

Notice that since you are holding the golf club with your hands pressed against your chest, your arms are absolutely not involved in this golf swing drill.

Repeat this drill at will and when ready you can start focusing on your upper body rotation while holding the club normally in your hands. Proceed with performing normal practice swings but make sure to involve your whole body – hips, shoulders, arms and hands.
