Most golfers experience some type of golf swing fault as they play the game of golf. The trick is to quickly identify and address the swing fault. Here are a few of the most common golf swing faults and a few golf tips to address these faults.

Common Golf Swing Fault 1: Poor Golf Grip

One of the most common golf swing faults is to have a poor golf grip which can cause a host of problems and errant golf shots. Here are a few golf tips to ensure you have the proper golf grip every time.

1.Palms always face each other on the golf grip.
2.When looking down at grip, knuckles of the left hand forefinger and middle finger should be visible and the creases of thumbs and forefingers point between right side of face and right shoulder.
3.Throughout the golf swing, your hands should work together as one unit.

Common Golf Swing Fault 2: Poor Golf Shot Setup

Poor golf shot setup is also a common golf swing fault. Here are a few golf tips to help you set up correctly for every shot.

1.Your body should be balanced with your body weight in the middle of your feet.
2.Your body spine angle should be tilted from your hips about 30 degrees.
3.Your knees should flex slightly.
4.Your back should be straight with your chin held up and off the chest.
5.Your arms should hang freely from your shoulders.
6.Your feet should be wider than your shoulders for long irons and woods, about shoulder-width for middle irons and slightly less than shoulder-width for shorter irons.

Common Golf Swing Fault 3: Poor Body Weight Transfer

The third most common golf swing fault is poor weight transfer from the back leg in backswing to the front leg in the downswing. Poor weight transfer can cause loss of power, fat shots, thin shots, slices and hooks.

To ensure you are properly transferring your weight, keep your body weight on the inside of the back foot in backswing while your back knee remains in place throughout the swing. This sets up a powerful coil and proper weight shift to your front leg in your downswing.
