How to Make a Big Backswing

If you want more distance, let’s make sure that you are REALLY making a full backswing.

Here’s the fix and the whys so you can get back there without getting weird.

Drill to Fix Over the Top

Over the Top swing plane refers to a path that is above the swing plane on the downswing. This path produces an out-to-in swing path, which imparts an unwanted spin on our ball.

The result is typically a weak-right or slice. Instead, we need an in-to-out swing path. Where I see players go off the swing plane the most is in the transition. So, let’s get your transition on the “inside to more solid shots” path!

Are you a reverse pivoter? Do you sway and slide in your golf swing?

Reasons for reverse pivoting could any physical limitations such as:

lack rotational flexibility

Lack muscular strength in thighs, glutes & core

Or reverse pivot could simply be a result of lack knowledge in the correct rotational movement. Also sometimes, a golfer may know how to rotate but the body hasn’t been able to perform the movements properly.

Improving physical part of the game is more of a long term goal.

In this video for stop swaying and sliding we’ll look at how swaying and sliding can hurt the golf swing.

I will show you a great drill you can do in the meanwhile. To help you understand on the correct rotational movement.

Doing the correct movements will definitely help improve the physical aspects as well!

It can cause much instability and over compensation in your swing. Hitting the ball solid is a long shot if you do the reverse pivot as well as much chunking or topping.

We’ll cover a few points on how to stay stable throughout the swing for solid contact eliminating the swaying and sliding.
