Golf Swing - Coiling Action

Weight Transfer occurs with a coiling acting of the body.

The above weight transfer occurs with a coiling action of the body, as opposed to a swaying action. Imagine one's hips turning in a barrel or the body movement of a pitcher throwing a slightly underhand, sidearm pitch. The golfer stays centered over the ball, rotating around some central reference point such as the spine or the sternum. Keeping one's head in position, as discussed earlier, contributes nicely to this coiling movement.

Relaxation

Relax during all the actions and steps during golf swing.

The last key component is to relax during all this action. This is not to suggest merely relaxing and having a good time. Rather, the body must be relaxed to the extent that it can flow fluidly though the coiling weight shift described above. Proper relaxation contributes to the maximum generation of power and accuracy. Said another way, the golf swing will have the most snap and pop to it, if it is relaxed through that exhilarating moment of focused energy at impact with the ball. The swing will also be ore likely to stay on line toward the target.
