During this next section we are going to look at golf swing tempo. Now often tempo is thing that you will notice that makes them stand out as looking like a good player. You'll see somebody a 100 yards away view of the side of the golf course and you can already notice that there were good players not just because the physical positions that they put the club in so but more importantly because the 10 part of that they swing the club like why you might be able to look at a golfer from 100 yards away and appreciate that but not a very good golfer. Cause again they've got pull Swing Time. Now good and bad swing tempo does not always mean fast to all slow and often the tempo is different for different golfers unsuitable for different golfers you know some golf is going to see a quick cadence a quick time by all the golf is going to see a slower more rhythmical time.
Now it's important we try and find your natural tempo your natural golf swing time but that isn't always the tempo that you're actually using you think if it was natural to you'd be using it already but some golf is deliberately try and speed up that by because you want to hit the ball further. They think it's going to help or the golf has deliberately slowed down because their favorite golfers Ernie Els and they see Ernie Els with a very slow rhythmical tempo and they think that's what the most trying to do. So it's quite difficult to identify what you'll natural swing time away is if you're not already using it and for some golf as they think they're using one time and then they realize that not. So I would actually go ahead and get yourself videoed side video camera on the edge of the driving range by go ahead and clip a few shots with a few different clubs some golfers of different tempo with different shots. Lovely little pitch wide swings and I think rhythmical knocking the ball out on to the green driver announce evidence speeds up and they get long and they get loose and they get a lot faster because they try to hit the drive with a different tempo. We try to have the same time both throughout the golf game we also want to have the same tempo throughout the entire round. So we don't want it to change 1st tee to 18th tee it's going to be the same the whole way through. So this next section we're going to identify what your time away is and how we can try and improve it.
