How To Determine If Your Golf Swing Is Too Fast
By: Gregg Hall
The whole point to practicing at getting a better golf swing is trying to make your swing faster. Most tips only show you how you should hold your club. Many people think that the harder you swing a golf club the further it will go. Yeah you can probably hit it far and hard but it will not be going to where you wanted the ball to go. If you are going to just hit the ball then you are not going to place it where you want it to go.
The way that you will make your swing all sloppy is by swinging too fast. There are many ways that one can find out how they swing and if they swing too fast. If your golf ball is going a certain way every time you hit it you are probably swinging too fast. If your ball is curving each time that you hit it then that is a sign that you are hitting the ball way too hard. If you loose grip of the club then that is another sign that you are swinging too fast and need to slow it down. If you lose balance then you are going to need to slow your swing down because that is another sign that you are swinging your club too fast.
If you don't know what the problem is then you cannot fix it so you need to watch and feel how you swing. After you have your swing under control you can start playing the game and start swinging the clubs. You can fix an over swing by counting and seeing how long it takes you to swing. There are many ways to see and fix ones swing but you can only fix it through practice and more practice. The more practice that you do the better you will get at swinging your clubs. You will just need to take your time remember you are golfing you have all the time in the world. You won't want to hit the ball as hard as you can because that again will be making you swing to fast.
So you just want to take it nice and easy for a few swings until you get the swinging process down. After you have the swing down then you can go golf with friends or just go to the driven range and just practice on swinging. You should get your swing down by the first day you start playing the sport. If you hadn't its not like it's the end of the world you can still play golf just keep practicing. You just need to go to the driving range every once and a while and hit a few balls to get your swing down and make sure that you keep it like that for awhile.

More Thoughts On Golf
Don't grip the club too tightly. A tight grip inhibits a smooth swing and follow-though. Also, keep the grips on your clubs in good condition. Worn grips force you to hold the club too tightly. Replace the grips on your clubs as they get worn and smooth. When first learning the grip, keep a club around the house and practice gripping and regripping the club a few minutes each day. Remember to keep fingers secure and arms relaxed.

Putting Tip
Wanna be a good putter? Here are some basic fundamentals you should be practicing.
--Get a putter with a very distinct line marked on it to indicate the target line and practice with a chalk line. You can get a chalk line at any hardware store for 5 or 6 bucks, and it's as valuable a training aid as there is anywhere. Find a putt on the practice green that is straight. Snap a chalk line down from about 5 or 6 feet to the middle of the cup. Make sure that the entire length of the line on your putter is exactly on the chalk line. Start making putts. This will train your eyes to "see square" precisely.
--Keep your the pressure in your hands soft and constant throughout the stroke. Sensitivity is obviously a huge part of putting. If your hands are tight on the grip you are diminishing your sensitivity - period. Also, if your grip pressure changes during the stroke, it's probably not "a stroke" but more likely a jab, flinch, spasm, push, hit ... well, you get the point -- good luck with that kind of technique.
--There is no independent action in the hands. Nothing could be more logical: If you do indeed have the putter face aligned precisely, as in the first point above, the last thing you'd want to do is to change the position of the face. Therefore, your hands should not be moving independently of your arms and shoulders. To see if your hands are moving, as a drill try watching your hands very carefully (instead of the ball) a few times. You'll see what your hands are doing quite easily.
There are many more (seemingly endless) details about putting, of course, but if you turn these fundamental concepts into habits it will take you a long way toward being a consistently good putter

The putting stroke that is best depends upon the individual. So try them all deciding which is best for you. Shoulders controlling: With the wrists in a locked position and with the shoulders and arms working in unison control, the club throughout the stroke.
