    Grip<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This is the first part of the entire motion of the game, so it\u2019s only logical that you\u2019ll have to start with how you grip the club for your shot. Having the correct grip will allow you to have a solid swing. When you can consistently hit the ball out the center of the club you can start with your accuracy. It is very critical to hit the ball towards the target square in the club-face upon impact. Your grip is the only part that connects your body and the entire motion of the swing to your club-face angle. Improving your grip will affect your swing. The game involves a lot of timing and having a good grip will give you a better chance of hitting the ball squarely. This way you won\u2019t have to change and force the club-face square. Ultimately, it will give your swing the consistency and fluidity it needs.<\/span><\/p>

    1. Stance<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Your stance will turn your swing into a slight slice or hook. The slice will curve the ball in the direction to the dominant hand of the player and a hook is in the opposite direction. A good stance starts with the feet shoulder-width apart, slightly bend your knees, raise your hips, angle your left shoulder above the right. Having the right stance will affect your balance and your striking power, both will determine the quality of <\/span>your ball striking<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    2. Swing<\/span><\/h2>\n

    A big part of being successful in the game is to <\/span>analyse your swing<\/span><\/a>, which is mainly the execution of your strategy. You\u2019ll have to spend a lot of time to improve it and make adjustments. Using modern technology you\u2019ll gain an insight into your swing like spin rate, carry, angle, speed of the ball and club, and many more. There are a lot of types of swing that you can use in different scenarios that best suit it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
