Sam Snead's swing was a thing of beauty, combining power, grace, and fluidity in a way that was truly unique and unforgettable. It helped him win numerous tournaments and set records that still stand today, and it continues to inspire and captivate golfers around the world.
Here are some of the key points in his golf swing.
Grip: Snead used a strong grip, meaning his left hand was rotated slightly to the right of the club, while his right hand was placed on the club in a normal position.
Stance and Alignment: Snead had a slightly open stance, meaning his left foot was turned out slightly. He also aimed slightly
to the right of his target.
Backswing: Snead's backswing was smooth and fluid, with a gradual turn of his hips and shoulders. His clubhead would be taken back low and slow, with a slight pause at the top of the backswing.
