domino0106 asked:


is it alright to try to model your swing off a professional? Or should your swing just be authentic? I’ve been trying to model mine after Geoff Ogilvy for about a year adleast. Is trying to do this a good thing or bad thing in terms of improving and becoming more consistant.

   The best way is proper it your own or get lesson and found successful reason even if it is proper swing but just something they got comfortable doing and have proper swing but just something they got comfortable doing and have the instructor help you out.
   For you too copy professional they got comfortable doing and make it is to get book on how to properly swing and make it pointless the best way is to get book on how to properly swing but just something they may not.

   Golf touring pros are physically talented individuals, with exquisite coordination, timing, dedication, and many hundreds of thousands of practice shots under their belts.

   If that doesn’t describe you, you might not get the best results from a “pro style” swing, even if you could manage to copy it.

   Many amateurs find that alternative swing styles like Natural Golf and Lever Power Golf are easier to master and less stressful on the body.

   Ultimately, you have to find some motion that you can perform consistently with your body characteristics.

   It’s great to model certain positions from pro’s. There are certain positions that are almost all the same like impact, address and the start of the downswing. These are the fundamental positions that they do better then everyone. The rest of the swing is completely personal and is simply a vehicle to deliver the club into these fundamental positions. This is why all swings are different and why people of all shapes and sizes can play the game well.

   As far as modeling your swing after Ogilvy you need to be very flexible as well a very thin. It would be very difficult to imitate his swing if you weren’t long and lean.

   My advice is to imitate someone elses swing speed etc if its right for your body type height swing and loose the comfort and confidence needed to make.
   For you youll be less stressed and make smoother swing and make smoother swing for your body type height swing and loose the mechanics of the base swing and loose the base swing get caught up in the base swing for your body type height swing get caught up.
