Poster - Build a Strong Golf Swing – Beginner Fundamentals

 

Why It Matters:
A smooth, repeatable golf swing starts with good habits. This guide walks you through the key elements of a solid swing so you can practice the right way from the beginning.

✅ 1. Setup & Stance Check

• Feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly flexed

• Back straight, tilt from hips

• Weight balanced on the balls of your feet

• Clubface square to the target

• Use a mirror or alignment stick to double-check

✅ 2. Grip Check

• Use the grip that feels most natural and in control

• Overlap, interlock, or 10-finger – as long as both palms face each other

• Club sits in fingers, not deep in the palm

✅ 3. Backswing Basics

• Smooth takeaway – don’t rush

• Rotate your shoulders; keep lead arm straight

• Eyes on the ball, but allow a natural head turn

✅ 4. Downswing & Impact

• Lead with the hips, let the arms follow

• Keep wrists cocked until just before impact

• Focus on swinging through the ball, not just at it

✅ 5. Follow-Through Finish

• Full rotation, chest facing target

• Weight on front foot

• Club should finish over your lead shoulder

Daily Tip:
Film your swing or practice in front of a mirror. Small corrections = big improvements.
