Tanim

Tanim refers to a golf club swing technique. It involves rotating the body and connecting the body and clubhead at impact, aiming for a consistent ball position. The swing is characterized by a vertical plane rotation, with the body and arms moving around a fixed pivot point.

Proponents of the tanim swing argue that it produces greater power and accuracy by promoting more efficient transfer of energy from the body to the clubhead. As the swing develops power, it is argued that this technique exploits the kinetic energy generated during rotation.

Tanim methods differ from traditional coaching and lessons offered in golf on swing planes and swing sequence. In traditional golf instruction, emphasis is placed on plane swing and the sequence of movements around different swing planes. Opponents argue that this leads to excessively engineered swings that are prone to faults.

Some notable professionals who have achieved success with this approach have theoretically argued and implied in public statements that the tanim swing is more resilient to fatigue and maximizes their capabilities.
