I found this tip in an old issue of Golf Digest (May 2013) in an article called Last Thought Before Driving. It gives swing thoughts for handling different problems. This is one he gave for when you're hitting the ball everywhere.
Butch's swing thought is "Maintain your arm speed to the finish" and he has this to say about it:
If you're feeling totally lost on the tee, you need a swing key that combats a lot of potential problems. Try keeping your arms swinging at a constant speed through the ball and all the way to the finish. Many golfers swing to the ball and stop; they "throw" the club at the ball. This can lead to misses of all kinds, so picking the proper correction can be confusing. If you keep up your arm speed, you'll create good rhythm and flow through impact. You might be amazed at how things fall into place. Making an aggressive pass through the ball is always better than trying to steer it down the fairway. Remember, you're making a golf swing, so keep those arms swinging.Let me explain something quickly here, because this swing thought seems counter-intuitive if you don't understand the physics behind it.
If you drop a ball from shoulder peak, it doesn't fall to the ground at a constant velocity. It actually hastens closer to the floor, at a velocity of 32 toes in step with 2nd in step with second. (That manner each 2nd the ball is falling, it falls 32 toes per 2nd faster than it did the second one before. Starting from a dead stop, it falls 32 ft at some point of the first 2d, sixty four toes in the course of the following 2nd, ninety six feet in the course of the 0.33 2nd and so on.) The equal factor happens while we swing a golf membership.
However, due to the fact we are used to shifting this way, we suppose we are shifting at a regular pace due to the fact we do not must attempt to accelerate. What we think about as a consistent rhythm is actually an accelerating swing. So if we reflect onconsideration on shifting our palms at a steady velocity when we swing the membership -- not looking to jerk our fingers up to the mark however just swinging smoothly and quickly -- we'll actually be gaining speed as we swing.
That will provide us a smooth swing that repeats. If our swing repeats, we're going to make a automatically steady swing that creates the equal shot shape time and again. And once we are developing the identical shot form over and over, we will figure out the way to intention it so we control wherein it lands.
So try and swing your arms in a steady rhythm all of the manner from begin to finish, and that concept must assist you get manipulate of the ball's flight. Butch have to recognise, do not you believe you studied?
