Tips:
Golf: How To Get Backspin
By John Lynch
Watch this awesome golf swing video and learn how to create backspin like the pros!
We've all heard the "oohs" and "aahs" when a pro golfer spins the golf ball backwards on the green like it's on a string.
So how do these pros create that nasty backspin?
The truth is to create that kind of golf ball backspin you need to strike the ball first, then the ground. The golf ball needs to be on a good clean lie like shown in the illustration to the left.Another factor that comes into play is the ball; you want a golf ball with a soft cover so it utilizes the grooves on the clubface effectively.
Lemme explain...
The longer the golf ball stays on the clubface during impact, the more time it has to roll up the clubface. As the clubface compresses the ball against the hard ground during impact, the clean grooves causes the ball to roll up the clubface creating spin.
This is why it is so important to have clean, deep grooves on your clubface.
- Now comes your stance: setup with an open stance and open the club face as explained nicely in the video above.
- Make sure the ball is in the middle of your stance with 60 to 70 percent of your weight on your left foot.
- Hold the clubface open through impact by restricting the release - this way the ball stays on the clubface longer. And the longer the ball stays on the clubface through impact, the more backspin you get.
Follow these simple instructions in this golf swing video and you'll be spinning it like the pros!
Play well.
