A lot of people all over the world do not really know why their golf swings do not work well for their game.
These people are, of course, beginners at the game of golf.
What they do not realize yet is that there are actually biomechanics involved here.
And the biomechanics of a golf swing have to do with every aspect of the human body itself.
Your skeleton, your muscles, and your nerves are all at play when you are trying to make that golf swing work for you.
Biomechanists have been working very hard to study the body's natural movement in making that optimum golf swing, and these studies have been very successful.
Much research has been done in the sport of golf .
The designs of golf clubs and their heads have been studied thoroughly by biomechanists.
Even the act of dimpling golf balls has been studied as well.
It is because of the results of these studies that more and more information is learned about the game, allowing players all over the world to hone their skills.
The game in itself has also improved considerably.
Still, the optimal golf swing studied and developed by biomechanists is something that cannot be considered perfect yet.
This would just serve as a goal, and pretty much, a guide for players who strive to make that perfect swing.
There are certain stages that come with the golf swing.
The address is known as the first stage.
This is when the golfer aligns his or her body with the ball.
Also known as the preparation stage this is when the golfer finds the most comfortable position for his or her body, before taking the swing.
This is followed by the back swing, where the golfer pulls the club backwards and starts the swing.
This stage allows the golfer to align his body correctly, to prepare for the down swing.
Upon completing the back swing, and just before executing the down swing, this is actually the stage known as transition.
It is aptly known as transition, since the golfer actually shifts weight from one foot to the other.
With the down swing, the golfer's whole body produces significant torque before establishing contact with the golf ball.
Torque is dependent on the choice of club as well as the golfer's distance to the green.
Each and every stage prepares the golfer for the next and the most important stage, the contact.
The way the club hits the ball determines its path.
