The information they can provide will be instrumental in purchasing the correct clubs for you, because they can tell you which type will fit you best and data about cutting edge products.

TIP! You can improve your swing by using your entire body. Beginning golfers rely too much on their arms for swinging power, which causes them not to hit all that far.

You must learn a correct grip as soon as you begin playing golf. Many people mistakenly believe they should grip the club extra-tight to hit the ball further. A firm, yet soft, grip works better. Hold your club as if it were a bird.

TIP! An easy exercise, a “toe-wiggling” exercise, can show golf stance faults. If wiggling your toes is hard to do when you swing, it will show they are leaning too far into the ball.

You can test the effectiveness of your golf swing by wiggling your toes a bit. If you can move your feet with no problems, it’s likely that you’re not leaning close enough to the ball. You need to lean slightly into the ball in order for your feet to move just a bit. Make sure your feet do not move too far.

TIP! When purchasing your next set of golf clubs, you might want to check into custom-fitted ones based on your exact specifications. Since every golfer has a different height, weight and body structure, a club that works well for one golfer may not work well for another.

If you want a powerful golf swing, use all your bodies muscles, in particular the leg and trunk muscles. You need to whip your body around during the swing, deriving strength from your legs as they push against the ground.

TIP! Inspect your golf clubs before buying them. The club head is especially important; don’t buy clubs without checking the heads for wear.

Align your front heel with the ball before you swing with your driver. Otherwise, the ball should be placed directly between each of your feet as you swing. The only exception to this generalization is when your ball is on an incline.

TIP! Hold the golf club correctly each time you swing. Keep the handle resting on your palms, and the thumbs pointing down.

One of the most important aspects of successful golfing is your stance; therefore, it is important to stand in the correct position. Your stance is often what determines the distance of your shot. Slouching during your shot will ensure that your ball doesn’t go very far at all.

You should prepared mentally and physically before playing. You need to temporarily forget about all of your other problems and singlemindedly concentrate on the game at hand.

TIP! You can maintain a high confidence while golfing if you play with other players at your skill level. As a beginner, you should play with others of the same skill level on easy courses.

For maximum contact, accuracy and distance, you need to ensure that your club’s face is hitting the golf ball as squarely as possible. Doing so boosts the odds the ball will go in a straight path. When the club contacts the ball but isn’t squared up, the ball is likely to fly off wildly in a direction you did not intend for. Play around with your grip until you can easily hit the ball consistently at 90 degrees.

TIP! Hit the ball squarely with the club’s face. Correct club and ball alignment assures the ball will be propelled straight ahead.

Anyone can enjoy golf, but only the serious player will work on perfecting their swing. Now with the added knowledge you gained from this article, you too can become really good at golf.

The instructions are excellent. The photo's supporting the written word make it very easy to understand what one is meant to do. Well written. This is the best that I have seen in written form. The difference is that every move is explained in detail, with photos, and it is simple to follow.

I'm very happy I've bought this system - the best thing is that I can review my swing and identify the areas I need to correct. Well done - excellent material, I have referred other people to the course."

"My fairway woods are now much more consistent in distance and much straighter, both off the tee and from the fairway. Also my mid iron shots are more consistent than in the past.

This system helped me to learn to put all the pieces together to know what a good swing should feel like. Whereas in the past someone might give me a good piece of advice, but I never had it in the context of a whole solid swing. And now I'm finally gaining confidence with my swing.

The instructions were easy to follow. The pictures added a lot of clarity to what you were looking to emulate. The "Draw" System gives you a step by step approach to building a good, solid, repeatable golf swing. All the drills are geared towards that singular goal of producing a swing that will produce a draw.

I've seen a lot of the drills used in The "Draw" System, but this is the first time where I've seen all the drills tied together in order to produce the "whole" good swing. And I'm finally learning what a good swing should feel like, (after years of unsuccessful guessing), and can try to recreate that sensation on the course.

I enjoy playing golf more now because I can actually start aiming at where I want to hit the ball. And I'm having a lot more fun actually hitting a lot more often from the fairway!

A very good, useful book! Thanks for compiling all the information and drills to help me understand and incorporate the swing mechanics in order to produce a draw."
