Abstract

In the earlier study, the golf swing was categorized into 4 types: the wrist turn/I type, the wrist turn/reverse-C type, the no-wrist turn/reverse-C type, and the no-wrist turn/I type. Amongst the four categories, the wrist turn swing, the mainstream swing until the mid-20th century, was taught by having the student imagine a swing plane as the shaft of the dub seems to move along a flat surface during the swing. The image of the swing begins from learning a swing with a small swing range, which is gradually made bigger to complete the swing plane, in a gradual approaching method. This instructional method made the swing practice easier to understand and spread to many learners. As opposed to this swing, the instruction of the no-wrist turn swing, the mainstream swing from the latter half of the 20th century, necessitates the learning of the wrist turn when swinging the dub shaft in the swing plane. Therefore, in the earlier study, it was made dear that a combined-plane image, which combines 3 planes, was most desirable. However, the step-by-step learning guide of the no-wrist turn swing still does not exist. Therefore, in this study, the steps to gradually building up the combined-plane of the no-wrist turn swing have been proposed. Further, in this study, this instructional method has been used to instruct the golfer who imagine facet swing plane, and through observation of the changes in the swing form, the problems and the effectiveness of this instructional method have been ascertained.
