This Free Golf Instruction Tip will improve your overall swing?

Let me explain:


It's called the Arm Extension Drill:

This free golf instruction golf drill will help develop the feeling of maintaining good arm extension and rotation through the hitting zone.



To be sure you understand where the toe of the club is located, this photo shows my index finger pointing to it.
 

 


 

The Right Hand Drill:

Holding the club with your right hand, take the club back near the 9 o'clock position cocking your wrist to about 90 degrees and make sure the toe of the club is pointing almost straight up. On the forward swing, the arm and hand will extend and rotate through the hitting zone and somewhere near the 3 o'clock position the toe of the club should be pointing straight up again indicating the proper release of the hand. Swing the club back and forth to familiarize yourself with the feeling of the club head releasing (rotating) in the hitting zone.

 


The Left Hand Drill:

Do the same drill with your left hand making sure the arm extends and rotates through the impact zone.

 

 

 

Weight transfer:

For both drills, there is a slight weight transfer and rotation to the left side on the follow through proportionate to the centrifigul force (momentum) created by the effort of the swing.



Good Golfing!
