What to do with the downswing deceleration? 3 ways to fix

 When playing golf, one of the key swing skills to hit the ball long and firmly is to accelerate the clubhead through the hitting area until after the ball has been hit. But in fact, many golfers do the exact opposite. They always hit the ball with a deceleration, which is one of the reasons why they always miss the ball.

No matter what club we use, we should continue to accelerate the clubhead to hit the ball as fast as possible, including on the chops around the green and when making putts.

If the speed is slowed down, the first and most direct impact is that the hitting power will be limited, resulting in a significant reduction in the hitting distance. Secondly, deceleration will also make the shot often appear thin and thick.

For example, some golfers often dare not accelerate when facing short-distance chips, fearing that the chip will be too large or the ball will rush out of the green, so they try to control by slowing down. But the result? Because of the slowing down, it is easier to hit the ball deep and not reach the green or to roll the ball directly out of the green.

This experience is believed to be experienced by many people.

The putter also needs to be accelerated, and deceleration will only result in a short push or difficulty in controlling the distance of the putt. Indecision is the biggest killer that affects putting, especially short putts, and decisively accelerating the shot can give us more chances to make holes.

So, how do you correct downswing slowdown and learn to accelerate the clubhead through the hitting zone? You can try the following 3 methods.
