I’m 14 years old and I have been playing golf for 3 years. This year I used elements of Tiger Woods swing and I found I was doing well with it. However Im worried now that in the future I will end up with knee problems. Should I change my swing to help my knee or leave it as it is?
do you plan to hit 1000 balls everyday? do you plan to be as strong as tiger is? probably not. he only has knee problems because of the massive amount of torque on his knees 1000s of times a week. so unless your going to get as big as him and play is much probably not.

I turn to start the Golf Swing and its really not working, the club just gets real flat and bad. How should u start it if u want a good position at the top?
It’s called a one piece takeaway. Start everything with the shoulders, keeping the hands and arms relatively still. Here’s a great example:

Recently I have been playing golf quite a bit and I push the ball 30 yards to the left(I am a left handed golfer). I know that my swing is not parallel to my body because when I square the clubhead up with my body it violently hooks right. I would like to fix this problem but I am not having any luck.
Your problem is a severe inside-to-outside swing. You’re attacking the ball from the inside too far that’s why when you square the club to your body it hooks right. The clubface is closed in relation to the swing path. Try practicing a downswing that’s a little wider and comes in less from the inside. You may be shortening your arms instead of swinging freely so before you tweak it, make sure you’re making a good long turn and swinging freely through the ball. If you place a ball on the inside path, say 6 inches behind the ball towards your left foot and about 2 or 3 inches inside towards your feet you should find out how far inside you are. If you hit that ball on the downswing, then you’re coming inside out too far. Swing without hitting the inside ball.

Like the question! How do I actually improve in golf swing? does my hand positioning needs replacing? and what sort of tempo should I move at? I often swing so hesitated , is it about confidence???
Obviously, we know that the hands grip the golf club and attach the body to the club. But what is the importance of them during the swing?
The answer has to do with releasing of the club. Let’s go at some quick golf biomechanics review. During the swing, from address position to follow-through, the hands are active in a passive type of manner.
Let me explain. The goal of the Golf Swing is to move the club on the correct swing plane to induce the intended golf shot that you want. This occurs through the body’s moving through a series of positions. These positions are found within the different phases of the golf swing.
The phases of the swing are address, take-away, backswing, transition, downswing, impact, and follow-through. During all of these movements the body is performing, the golf club is being moved upon a swing plane. The swing plane is the path upon which the golf club is to travel. Proper impact with the golf ball requires the golf club’s traveling upon the correct swing plane.
In order for the club to travel on the correct swing plane it is necessary for the clubface to open and close. Oftentimes, in golf terms the opening and closing, of the clubface is termed "releasing of the club." This is where the hands become an integral part of the golf swing.
Well I think is best if you actually come and learn this simple golf swing technique…
it completely guides you through step by step and in a more visual way, very hard to explain here !
