Fix Tension in the Golf Swing

We all want to reduce tension and develop a RELAXED GOLF SWING. Any golfer can find themselves tightening up under pressure on the golf course, even the professionals. So, how do we keep soft hands to produce a tension free golf swing, even under pressure?
Learning to relax when swinging the golf club can improve feel, control, tempo and power for every golfer. Glen Haynes takes you through 7 Tour Tested techniques, to help you learn how to relax when over the golf ball. Well, 6 of our methods are tour tested, we’re not sure about the 7th one! We think Glen was just a little hungry!
These techniques can help all golfers relax and improve golf swing tempo. All golfers, including juniors, seniors, women, beginner and advanced players can benefit from controlling the amount of tension in the hands, arms, neck and shoulders.

Golf Coaches, Not Teachers
The Aussie Golf Pros are holistic coaches in every sense of the word. Steve and Glen are both fully qualified members of the PGA of Australia and are avid students of the Sports Sciences. Together, they are certified in Advanced Golf Coaching, Golf Psychology, TPI (Body-Swing Connection), NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Personal Development and Skill Acquisition.
Steve and Glen are not ‘Method’ coaches. They recognise that there are literally 1000’s of ways to swing a golf club! Rather than try to ‘change’ your swing, their goal is to help You Be The Best Golfer You Can Be!
Skill Development vs Technical Changes
Although technique is an important factor in improving a golfer’s performance, Skill Development is largely neglected in golf coaching today. Skill is something that can be tangibly improved with proper understanding of the golf impact laws and effective practice towards improved performance.
External Focus of Attention
Most golf teaching involves an internal focus. Common suggestions might include increased hip turn, a still head or improved hand path. These are all factors of the golf swing, which many golfers and teachers consider important. However, as they are focused internally, on movements of the body, golfers find changes extremely difficult to process.

Great advice Glen. Tight hands and engaging the core really help me. Love the chip idea too!!

[@AussieGolfPros]

Thank you Tracey. Great to hear you’re golf is benefiting from our video!
🙏🙌

[@leonardmoss1829]

One of your best🙂

[@innategolf8679]

🙏 Thanks Len.

[@nickmartinello9816]

Love your videos. What is your best advise to get the low point of the iron swing more in front . Grip is good arms are relaxed but at impact hips don't feel open enough. Thanks so much

[@AussieGolfPros]

Thank you for your question Nick.
Firstly, controlling the low point of golf swing isn’t necessarily dependent upon your hip clearance. Using this external focus of attention, you can improve the compression of your irons:

Hope these help.

All excellent tips Glen on having a relaxed golf swing! I try to use all of your suggestions with one exception . . . the potato chip! :-) Well Done Glen!

[@AussieGolfPros]

You should try it! 🤣
Thanks John

[@ericmackenzie123]

Beautiful swing. I'll give the tips a go. Thanks. I think the breathing and engaging the core are the ones to start with.

[@AussieGolfPros]

You’re very kind Eric.
We look forward to hearing how you progress.
🙏

[@ericmackenzie123]

Scored a 39 and won the comp today so I reckon these tips worked!

[@AussieGolfPros]

That’s fantastic Eric! I hope you are continuing to improve! Apologies for the slow response.
