Golf down swing tip - Art of the Down Swing

Down swing technique

The art of starting your swing

    Some say there are two conventional ways to swing the club. Either the body follows and reacts to the swing or the body drives and controls the swing. The second being the more athletic of the two.
    An athletic swing should have an athletic start. Throwing is an athletic motion. When you go into a throwing motion the arm and upper body start out moving in the opposite direction while the lower body turns forward. The down swing can start the same way. The shoulders opposing the hips as the arms drop and reach.
