This warm-ups may be for the more novice golfer (I'm a newer golfer and was shown these by my pro).

Along with taking 15 to 20 practice swings with a variety of your clubs you can also try this~

1. (a) (For right handed golfers)...Gently grip your club, and hold it straight out directly in front of you. Swing all the way to the right (so far that your left arm with be across your chest). When you have swung all the way to the right, your left arm should now gripping the club directly over your right arm.

(b) Now swing in the other direction starting from where you were with your left arm across your chest. Once you swing all the way to the left, your right arm should now be gripping the club directly over your left arm (left arm will now be underneath). Keep repeating back and forth for about 20 reps.

2. The other warm up is simple~ simply bend your knees and create a comfortable stance; grip your club gently and swing backwards; complete your backswing and then swing through as though hitting a ball. Once you have completed your swing, do a full back swing again all the way back... basically you are just mimicking a pendulum going back and forth, in the same tempo all the way through and back again. Repeat 20 times.

Hope that helps someone out anyway!
