Tiger Woods golf swing is pure power! What amazes me is his touch around the green... when he just mangles the ball off the tee. He has been scrutinized since making his golf swing changes with new teacher Hank Haney, but no one can deny, he is still (by far) the number one player in the world. He was almost unbeatable this year!
With his dedication to swing technique and fitness, there is no one who can dethrone him anytime soon (sorry Phil).
Secret To Tigers Power
How does Tiger generate so much clubhead speed and power at impact? He has god-given talent...and always has, and he is so strong! Without a doubt, the strongest player on tour! Vijay singh is a close second, but Tiger is 10 years younger, so youth does play a minor part.
There is a couple of things right off the top that any golfer no matter age or ability can accomplish given a little bit of "off the course" training on your body!
Rotate with your body.
Tiger does this better than anybody because of his core strength. You can do this too! Develp your core rotational strength with simple exercises in your home, you will add many yards to your drives. This type of swing is a feeling of being "connected" throughout the swing.
Tiger fights his lower body's tendency to get way ahead of his upper body during the downswing (getting "{stuck"), so he tries to keep his arms and club in front of his chest for as long as he can. This promotes a better sequence for the downswing, which puts him at impact in a very powerful position.
There are a couple of drills you can do to achieve this body rotation. Sticking a towel under both armpits while you swing a wedge is one way. If the towel drops, your arms have become disconnected from your body.
Swing through to a full finish.
Notice how Tiger fully rotated in his follow through. Only when he is hitting a punch or knock-down shot does he not have a full finish. This is an indicator Tiger is swinging through the ball, not just hitting at it.
When you focus on swinging through the ball, you'll find your distance will increase, as well as your fairways hit off the tee. For most of us amateurs, the "hit" instinct is something we fight all the time.
It's so easy to say we all can't have Tiger Woods golf swing and that is partly true. But applying the above two movements to your swing will do wonders.
The only thing left is working on your body "off the course".
Golf is no longer viewed as just a leisure game. It is an athletic movement that demands a higher level of conditioning specific to golf if you want to play your best!
So you'll never be Tiger, but you can do prepare almost the same and have a swing that at least look like you have Tiger Woods golf swing!
