Understanding The Rotary Nature of The Golf Swing
The golf swing is really a rotary movement in nature.
Actually part of the real secret behind the perfect golf swing has to do with a golfer understanding the rotary motions in the golf swing and being able to perfect and master them. This is of course easier said than done. In the past many golfers have had to struggle for decades trying to get their golf swing right with poor results at best. Most hardly ever achieved a good consistent golf swing, let alone getting to understand the key rotary movements in the golf swing motion. However in recent years a short-cut of sorts has emerged where golf specific exercises which include both strength building and stretch exercises have worked miracles in helping numerous golfers of all ages to dramatically improve on their golf swing. Many have done so by getting the rotary motions in the golf swing right and mastering them to a large extent. The perfect rotary golf swing really involves limiting the amount of horizontal and vertical body movements so that the entire rotary golf swing movement involves swinging your entire body around your spine. Obviously the more physically fit, or golf fit a golfer is, the easier it will be to achieve this rotary golf swing. You can imagine how unnatural the rotary golf swing movement is and indeed how dangerous it can be to a body and muscles that have not been prepared or exercised and conditioned for it. Little wonder that golf injuries are so common these days.
The results are a joy to watch and also a great joy for the player who ends up thoroughly enjoying their game. This is because shots will fly further and yet the golfer will be in more control over the direction that they are headed. Exercise makes the rotary golf swing much easier to achieve.

A Good Swing Starts with a Strong Base of Support
A good golf swing starts with a strong base of support (hips, pelvis and lumbar spine). A highly conditioned base of support will provide stability throughout the swing and allow forces to be effectively transferred from the legs through the hips to the upper body to produce optimal power and control. A strong base helps protect the joints and other supporting tissues against the strong compression, shear and torsion forces that occur during the golf swing. Unfortunately, there are a number of factors that predispose the golfer to developing poor postural patterns and muscle imbalance that result in a weak base of support.

GPS Golf Balls Are Almost Here
As GPS technology gets better and better and smaller and smaller it will be able to be used for many things? For instance at the World Series a baseball hit into the third level will be able to be recorded by GPS as to exactly how far it was hit and it's trajectory to formulate where it would have actually landed had the stadium been flat. Thus we will be able to tell who was the greatest homerun power house of all times, perhaps even who is on steroids based on their body mass, speed of pitch, GPS data and 'haptics' (body movement and form). Wouldn't it be cool to be watching the World Series on TV and instant information about a homerun appearing on the bottom of the screen? Sounds like a whole new potential betting arena, not only how many homeruns a person will hit, but exactly how far they will hit them?
