Summary: Though Musselburgh, Scotland is home to The Old Links, oldest golf course in the world, golf is rumored to have begun in the Netherlands in 1297. After seven hundred years it still follows the same basic premise: hit a ball into a hole using a stick; the person who gets it in the least number of hits, wins. Today, a golfer may have any number of sticks, called clubs, made up of wood, graphite, or titanium. Each club has a specific use depending on the type, whether it’s the driver for an opening long ball, the wedge for shots out of the sand trap, the putter for the last short shot into the hole, or a variety of irons for anything in between.

The game starts with the first player placing a ball on a tee and driving it hundreds of yards down the fairway. Therefore, having a proper and efficient swing is one of the most important aspects of your golf game. Techniques for gripping and swinging confound even PGA tour golfers sometimes.

In these free videos, learn the proper way to swing a club, whether you’ve never hit a golf ball before or you have 20 years experience in the game. Our swing coach has deconstructed the perfect golf swing, breaking up the essential elements into manageable sections. Watch these clips, and get fundamental techniques for addressing the golf ball with the club, ball placement, timing and tempo, and wrist positioning. Practice these exercises to improve your golf swing. Repeating the right things over and over is the best method for becoming a great golfer.
