The zolf| swing takes just, ~0 much time and it must bhe given that time. If it ix done in leas than the requirtd time the swing will | be jerky, probably starting from the P with a jerky lunge of body power. If it is done too slowly it will he awkward and lack balance. One great rule ix: Start your clubhead hac slowly from the ball. Keep it moving owly for at least the firnt foot or wo, then let it take its natarnl conrve. Ax a starter you might try narrowing all | vour thinking about the swing. at the time you make the swing, to the cen- tral thought of starting the club slowly from the ball.
