Hit the Golf Ball Farther With “Lead Arm Adduction”

May 31, 2020

There is an important angle in the golf swing called “lead arm adduction,” and it is the angle formed between your lead arm and your shoulders. As you bring your club to the top of your backswing, this angle will naturally reduce. But if you compare the swings of great ball strikers with those of amateurs, you will see an important difference that happens in transition.

What we see with the better players is their lead arm abduction angle actually gets smaller as they start the downswing. Think of it like they are leaving their arms in position at the top even as they start the downswing with the rest of their body… their arms get closer into their chest. This motion stores energy in your arms, giving you a boost in club head speed as they eventually spring through impact.

Stop Hitting Behind The Golf Ball

May 28, 2020

How To Stop Hitting Behind The Golf Ball:

In terms of hitting behind the ball, let’s first define what we want to do, and then we’ll talk about the things you can do to stop that from happening, and I’ll give you some drills to do.

Now, I’m going to pull a simple alignment rod. Now, we’re on a mat here, on which an alignment rod here will work fine. If you’re on the grass, you can spray-paint a line or just have a line as a reference. A piece of tape or something like that would work fine.

I’m going to put this alignment rod straight in line with the golf ball on the ground. So, the point is, when we’re hitting too far behind the ball, that compromises our contact, compression, and distance that the golf ball goes.

We want to fix that. If I were to take a normal setup here, if we watch good golfers, their club will come down, will strike the ball first, and hit the ground second.

So, if I remove this golf ball, and that’s the line where it normally is on, what we want to be able to train to do is have the club head hit in front of the line where our golf ball would be.
