“Keep your head down” is the famous. The thinking behind this one is that by keeping your head down during the swing will allow you to stay down through impact and make better contact. The problem with this is that if you focus on keeping your head down, the first thing that happens is you dip your chin and it comes to close to your chest. When your chin is too close, as you swing your shoulders have to move your head, causing the exact opposite of the desired result.
Instead, when play TaylorMade SpeedBlade Irons, try keeping your eyes on the ball. This will actually produce the effect that the “keeping your head down” mantra is intended achieve. By keeping your head up, but eyes on the ball this will allow your shoulders to swing freely. Keep your eyes on the ball but allow your head to come up as a natural progression of the swing, letting it rise to follow the ball, AFTER impact.
The thinking behind this is to keep a solid base of the golf swing and maintain stability throughout the swing. While this is extremely important, for the average golfer trying to do so by keeping the heel planted is not going to help. Although we need to have a stable lower body, more importantly we need to have weight transfer. Weight transfer allows us to use the power and momentum that our body creates during the swing and apply it to hitting the cheap TaylorMade SLDR Driver.
On the backswing, the weight has to be loaded onto the back foot. The rotation of the shoulders should naturally allow the weight to transfer onto the back foot. Once you’re rotating, the weight will naturally move to the inside of the left foot. At the top of the backswing your lower body triggers the start of the downswing and that is generated by the transfer of weight. Keeping the heel down, or not allowing it to move stunts the ability of your body to transfer the power being generated and inhibits the distance and control.
