Every golfer has plenty of moving parts. The secret is to get those parts moving in sync. so that they help not hinder your game. That is a matter of tuition and practise but it pays to understand what you are trying to teach your mind and body and why you are doing it. In many ways this applies to every single sport but in the case of golf it is arguably different because in every case it is a matter of hitting a static object correctly rather than reacting to movement such as applies to soccer, tennis or cricket.
Biomechanics actually applies to the simple act of walking though that comes naturally to everyone. It is the science of movement whereby patterns can develop that minimise stress on joints and ultimately injury. When applied to golf it is generally in search of creating good club head speed and therefore distance; it has a start point after which other parts follow.
The secret of good golf is to be able to create consistency in order to produce the power required to hit the ball. That means a regular pattern which body and mind can almost ‘’see’’ as second nature. Golfers who master this are more likely to be bringing the club head down square and therefore hitting the ball straight and hopefully long. It should mean that they can identify how far they ought to hit a particular club and that obviously helps in their selection of a particular club for a particular shot.
