Creating More Power In Your Swing

To maximise the power potential of your swing, your body has to work in a certain way. To generate the most amount of power, you must use something that is called levers. Levers are what create the power in the golf swing.

Your body, arms and club are all levers and used in the correct way create enormous power.

From the top of the swing. your left knee starts to move back towards the target, your weight shifts to the left, your body starts to rotate, then your right elbow starts to straighten and then your wrist starts to unhinge.

As you can see here, the sequence is going from the largest muscle to the smallest. If you use your body in the correct way, it is impossible to come over the top or hit a snap hook. These two shots are the result of the body not working properly.
