Clear the screen, then draw it again in a slightly different position.

Keep doing that.

Steps:
1. Draw a object at (x,y) position on screen.
2 Hide the object
3. Calculate new (x,y) position
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until u get the final (x,y) position.

The above stated answers by luckychap and salem is what you need to do to make your swing move ie clear and redraw.
But instead of clearing the entire screen its better to clear only a part of the screen.You can just go through the concept of VIEWPORT and move on with it.
