The downswing phase in golf begins as the club comes down from top just before striking the ball.
A proper downswing ensures that the stored energy from backswing is released at impact.
Check out commonly diagnosed faults in downswing, and see more about what causes them, and how to fix them.
The downswing starts when you start moving the club down toward the ball after reaching the top of your swing. A proper downswing helps you release the stored power from your backswing and hit the ball with the right path and speed.
Common downswing errors seen among golfers are casting, or early release of wrists, early extension, over-the-top moves, a lack of hip rotation, and having an inside-out swing path. These faults can cause poor contact, slices, hooks, and loss of power.
