How to Correct an Early Release in a Golf Swing

The game of golf is a mental battle within you. Visualizing your swing helps your game. Many golfers struggle with an early release of their angles. Maintaining angles through your swing and then into the impact with the ball is key to a great golfing day.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Learn what plane is in golf. The plane is the angle the club creates as it hits the ball. There are 2 planes—the downswing plane and the takeaway.

2. Study your downswing plane—this is the most powerful part of your swing.

3. Force your mind's eye to capture the center of your swing. Every swing has a center. The center is the foundation created by your head and spine as you swing the club.

4. Watch the pros on television. Pay attention to their head and spine—they stay straight through their swing.

5. Examine the distance through video between your lead shoulder and the club head. The radius must remain intact.

6. Monitor the release of your wrists. Maintain your radius with perfect execution and the proper sequence of movements in the downswing.

7. Size up the ball. Adjust the clubface so that the direction of the ball is straight forward. The grip of the club affects the face of the ball.

Tips & Warnings

• Most amateurs release their wrists early, forcing the shaft ahead of the lead arm before impact.
