Sway (Swaying) – Golf Swing Error: How to Fix

Golfers generally understand that in order to generate power in their golf swing they need to transfer their body weight back during the backswing and forward during the downswing. However, in some cases, they are not performing this critical part of the swing correctly and are instead suffering from the swaying (sway) golf swing error. What happens then is that they slide their hips back and forward, resulting in a lack of power, poor low point control and ultimately shot inconsistencies in the form of fat or thin shots.

Follow these golf tips in order to fix the sway in your golf swing:

– During the setup, your body weight should be evenly distributed among your two feet.

– As you perform your backswing your weight should move towards your back foot but only in a controlled manner. Critically, some of your body weight should move towards the instep of your back foot but not towards the outside of that foot.

– And your weight should be transferred mostly through the rotation of your upper body, not through the sliding of your hips back and forth.

– At the end of your swing – at the follow through – your body weight should be almost entirely on the front – left – foot. But it should have moved there following a turn and release upper body rotation sequence, not through your hips sliding forward alone.
