Stretching before Golf
Stretching before golf is non-existent with most amateurs. That sounds harsh, but I can tell you that 90% of the time I go to the range, golfers walk up and start hacking balls. No stretching before golf…no nothing!
Would you ever see an athlete do this? Then why would a golfer be any different? Golfers are athletes…and all athletes need to prepare their body to perform. This requires stretching before golf practice and play.
All it takes is minutes or less to effectively get your body warmed up and ready to shoot low scores. I have a stretching before golf section in my golf training manual that shows simple and dynamic movements to feel loser than you’ve ever felt on the first tee. No more blow up holes!
The kind of golf stretching I’m talking about is dynamic (movement) type stretching, not static (hold) stretching.
Picture how fluid the golf swing is and then do movements that are specific to rotation, golf posture and width in your golf swing.
The more efficient you are with these simple golf stretches, the quicker it will take and the sooner you’ll be able to do the fun stuff…hitting balls and playing your best!
