The Most Important Part of Yor Golf Swing

A friend ask me this a while back; “How important is club face position at ball impact?” My answer was; “Well, I think that it’s the most important part of your golf swing.”

He looked surprised, so I explained.

“It doesn’t matter what your swing looks like – whether it’s outside-in or inside-out. The ball will end up pretty much where your club face is aimed at ball contact. With an outside-in swing and a square club face, you will produce a slice, but the ball will curve back to pretty much to where your club face was aimed. The same is true for an inside-out swing. I use this fact to slice or hook around obstacles on the golf course.

This also accounts for our open stance that we use in sand shots. We stand open and swing normally but our club face is aimed at the target and our ball flies in that direction, not the direction of our swing.”

I hope that this story helped your game.

Happy Golfing,

Bob
