The reason for this article is to address what I believe to be the biggest misconception in the history of the game of golf relating to the path of the golf swing and it’s instruction.

The golf swing happens along a geometrical orientated linear path.

Linear: The word linear comes from the Latin word linearis, which means created by lines;

Generally there are two ways that the path of the swing is described in golf instruction either outside in or inside out.

The correct path of the golf swing is a linear path which means the clubhead travels along the target line for a length of time.

It is therefore not correct to instruct a player who swings outside in to start swinging inside out! It is correct rather to instruct the player to swing along a linear path.

Delivering the clubface to the ball looking directly at the target (“square” in golf terms) promotes instinctively swinging the clubhead 'momentarily along' rather than across the target line when impact occurs.

When the swing path momentarily matches the target line at impact, the clubhead arrives at the ball at the proper angle, not too steep nor too shallow, and delivers the entire force of the blow directly forward.

Sure we often need exaggerated movements in the swing to find the position we are looking for however the player still needs to be instructed of the correct theory.
