- Golf and golf vacations are a ideal environ to switch off  and relax. Great golf packages means Phuket golf.

Golfing is fun and what is better as having fun during vacations? That automatically leads to golf vacation? One of the best destinations is Phuket island in southern Thailand, Phuket golf attracts plenty of golfer every year with fine landscaped golf green, lakes and a tropical sun which won’t burn to hard since the Andaman Sea is around from where a cool breeze is flowing in. For a start for Phuket golf take a golf package, most Golf clubs offer serviced apartments just like a hotel and the walk to to the green is short, ok you could also use a golf cart.

Finding an excellent location for golf vacation is not difficult, there are many, but what makes it perfect is the environment, means great food, a vibrant nightlife, the sea around and day trips into an exotic island world results in fabulous golf vacation. Its golf sun, beach and action if you like and there are plenty of other things to do on Phuket island; shopping is one of them, browsing hundreds of restaurants offering all kind of cuisine from all continents is another one. If you are an adventures guy try Phuket nightlife, one of the best in Asia and probably worldwide, read more about Phuket nightlife. Now how to pick the destination? Just browse our site and you will find what you like.

- Some general ideas to keep in mind.

There are more or less five subjects to think about to make your golf vacation perfect. This is also visible at any tournament players. They are based upon the same fundamental athletic motion you use when you throw a golf ball. They are not scientific, but they are basic physics. No need to think about, but having a thorough understanding of the total concept of the swing will benefit you.

1. Weight Transfer: This is the foundation the basic athletic motion used in every ground based sport. It is simply the moving of the body to the back foot to cause the golf back swinging motion. Then moving the body to the front foot to cause the through swinging motion. It is movement OVER to the back foot. You can accomplish this by picking your front foot up in the air. What happens? All of your

weight moves to your back foot. That's exactly what you want to have happen and not only during your Phuket golf vacations, for more about Phuket click here and for the area around Phuket to Krabi click here.

By moving all your weight to your back foot you have got the mass of your body behind the golf ball and it is now ready to move back through the golf ball. To reverse the direction of the swing, transfer all of your weight from your back foot to your front foot. That is all there is to it. Stand on your back foot then stand on your front foot. There is no turning, just a lateral move to your back foot then to your front foot. Might your head move when you do this? yes, it will. Is this ok? yes. The still head thing is a myth, a folk remedy discussed in The Swing book.

It is the moving of your body through weight transfer that permits the swinging of your arms to hit the golf golf ball just right. This is strength, power, effortlessness, distance, consistency. Other than that its not important. This principle is intertwined with the next principle, Relaxation. They are dependent on each other. Without weight transfer, relaxation will not occur.

2. Relaxation: This is possible for you, and every golfer, to

accomplish. It is necessary for every golfer to accomplish if he is to have any real quality shots success. This is the secret to great distance. It is the secret to high consistency quality shots. Nothing works well in athletics without relaxation. It seems to be counter-intuitive in golf. You see the green 442 yards away and you drive the golf ball with all your might. That's seems to be the effective thing to do to make the golf ball go as far as possible. What happens to the drive? It goes 157 yards slicing in to the trees. The solution?

Swing harder.

The golf swing is an expression of centrifugal force, just remember Phil Mickelson. Remember swinging the rock at the end of the string in a science class? To make the rock go faster you had two choices; speed up your hand that held the end of the string or make the string longer. That's centrifugal force, that's the golf swing. The rock on the end of the string is the golf club head. The string is the shaft and your arms. The string attaches at your sternum. To make the club head move more quickly you have two choices; lengthen the string (longer shaft) or speed up your sternum.

To create maximum speed in the golf club head requires maximum relaxation in your shoulders. Then the club will be swung without interruption. Your job is to relax so your arms can swing freely, so your club can swing freely and at its maximum possible speed. Trying to swing your club at the golf ball with all your might will keep you a 100+ shooter. I promise. How do you speed up your sternum? With your feet just like you do when you throw a golf ball. Want to throw it farther, quicken your feet. Want to hit a longer shot? Quicken your feet a little bit. Don't try hard to quicken your feet a lot. A little additional speed in you feet translates to a lot more speed in your sternum and a whole lot more

speed in your club head. Relax your shoulders until it seems they are coming out of their sockets during the entire swing and you have increased your club speed exponentially. I promise.

3. Back leg and knee: This is your real source of power. During your backswing, keep your back leg flexed and the weight and pressure on the golf ball and big toe of your foot. Now as you reach the top of your backswing your back leg is in position to push against the ground in order to push your body forward to your front foot. The good base golf ball pitchers pitch with this motion. You throw a golf ball this way , pitch a horse shoe this way, shoot a basket golf ball this way, etc., etc. your power, and delicacy come from your back leg. It can and will work automatically if you have weight transfer, relaxation and keep you back leg flexed during the backswing. Did you notice that I spent more words describing the relaxation section than the other four sections? Would it seem that I think relaxation is important? Now, relax your shoulders and go play golf. The five Concept Golf swing principles are not five things to do but a whole concept to understand. By John Toepel
