‘Keep Your Head Down’ – The Most Common Misconception in Golf

The ProGolfGals discuss how the biggest fallacy in the golf swing is the belief that keeping your head down is essential for a great shot. This myth is damaging to your swing.
  • Keeping your head down is a common misconception in golf, but it’s highly detrimental to your swing.
  • Attempting to keep your head down leads to collapsed arms, hindering power and launch.
  • Maintaining a tall stance with your head moving naturally throughout the swing is more effective.
  • The “head down” myth is especially prevalent among beginner golfers.
  • Watching the ball after impact is crucial for accuracy and shouldn’t be confused with keeping your head down.
  • Avoid telling others to keep their head down during a swing; it’s an outdated and harmful belief.
