The three most important steps you should keep in mind during your golf swing are to keep your head perfectly still, relax your muscles, and keep your club head traveling in a straight line while making contact with the golf ball. The simple act of keeping your head still throughout your golf shot can improve your swing immediately. By keeping your club head in a straight line while making contact with the ball, you will avoid slicing and several other undesirable results.

Relaxing your muscles will aid you tremendously in keeping the proper balance. Balance is imperative to a good golf swing. Stand comfortably so you can reach the ball easily and remember that the muscles that propel the ball are the same muscles that twist the body and are the most powerful. No matter what stroke you are making or what club you are playing with, balance is the foundation to a good golf swing, and you must keep your muscles relaxed to achieve perfect balance. Balance really is the cure-all for many faults of golf. Think about keeping your head still and maintaining your balance at all times and you will have a foundation for an excellent golf game.

A lot of golfers tend to try to hit their wedge hard – they overpower it. What happens, in most cases, is they hit their shot to the left.

The wedge should be an easy swing and you need to let the club do it’s job. If you don’t feel you can reach the green with your wedge, use a longer club. Plain and simple.

That’s where practice comes into play. Learn the distance you get from each club. Then use the correct golf club for the shot. It’s never more important then when you pull out your wedge.
