In this video golf lesson, Master PGA Professional Mike Hebron goes over the significance of rhythm and timing in the golf swing.
Professional golfers have synchronized rhythm and timing, making for a smooth swing. According to Hebron, many golfers view the backswing and the downswing as disconnected components and tend to be too aggressive on the downswing, causing a break in the rhythm and timing of their swing.
Hebron offers a simple mental tip that will correct this: He suggests thinking of the swing as a single movement rather than as two distinct swings, which will result in a flowing movement that will provide better results.
