Should YOU improve
your
shoulder turn to
promote
a better golf swing?
The shoulder turn will help you
to increase your backswing thus giving you the possibilty for more
distance.
The
Streching Drill:
The bigger the
radius,
the bigger the arc of your swing and the farther the ball will go with
less effort. How do we promote a bigger arc in your swing?
Answer:
Improving the turning of
your shoulders.
The
muscles in your back may not be stretched enough to create the
bigger arc that you need to play to your potential. If this is the
case, practice this exercice many times a day for a few weeks. The
stretching of the muscles in your back will enable you to keep that
left arm straighter thus maintaining the radius of your swing.
To
improve the turning of your shoulders, practice
these exercises:
With your
right hand behind the left arm,
pull the arm across the body causing the shoulder to turn
thus creating a stretch in the
upper left side of the
body.
This
will also help the left arm remain extended
during the backswing.
From an address
position, place both hands
across your chest as shown. Then turn your shoulders
approximately 30 degrees. Hold for a few seconds, then attempt to turn
90 degrees. Allow the hips to turn with the shoulders
while maintaining the same leg flex.
This
exercice will help you feel the correct shoulder position at the top of
your backswing.
