A simple golf tip that can help you properly sequence your golf swing’s downswing and find a consistent point of contact – while getting plenty of extension, accuracy, and distance. I used this golf tip and golf swing thought to help a student hit the ball 20+ yards further without using any additional effort in their golf swing.
There is a great chance this golf tip will put your golf swing on autopilot if you struggle with consistent contact or if you have a flippy impact position. OR, in general, help you get the right sequencing to have a smooth downswing.
Have you ever wanted a flat left wrist at impact and a little shaft lean?
In today’s video we’re going to give you a little something to think about that will allow you to have some better flexion in that lead hand while it’s supinating, (is the fancy term), or turning to the palm up towards impact, so that way, you can get some better shaft lean and better compression on the golf ball.
We all know that we need to stay down with the ball or more precisely we have heard that we should “cover the ball”.
In this video, Jared will give you a very simple drill to help you feel for maybe the first time what it is like to truly maintain your posture and cover that ball. When this drill is done correctly you will be amazed how much better you can hit the ball.
You may also learn how over exaggerated you need to feel into impact to maintain your posture so that you don’t early extend.
Many golfers struggle to shallow the club with precision, but a few simple adjustments to their swing will bring their shallowing technique to perfection.
When taking golf shots, often players struggle to hit with the center of their clubface. This struggle often results in wild shots that hook right or left of the intended target.
Developing your ability to shallow out the club will drastically improve your golf game and act as a vital utility in many different scenarios on the golf course.
Shallowing assists in squaring up the clubface on impact when implemented correctly during a player’s downswing.
Learning this technique has shown to improve the striking ability of golfers from novice to veteran.
This technique causes the golf club to flatten out horizontally, without taking the swing too steep. A steep swing will always result in a poorly struck golf shot.
Most players fail to realize that nearly all golf swings are dominant to the left side. Right handed golfers thus should be pulling to the left side of their bodies during their downswings in order to impact the golf ball correctly.
Neglecting to perform this swing correctly will result in a right side dominant downswing that will end up sending the club too far over the top, causing the swing to go outside of the plane, steeping out in the path to eventual impact.
One of the most important aspects of shallowing occurs when golfers shift their weight to their leading leg. Typically players should shift at least 80% of their weight to the leg they’re leading their swing with.
Using nature to drop the club into the slot occurs when gravity takes over the golf club during the shifting of weight. Working against gravity will produce pulled shots and slices.
Lastly, golfers must flatten their left wrist while working through their downswing. This means that players should not let their left wrist bend right to left.
Forgetting to flatten the left wrist often results in difficult shots that miss the plane and often create a much steeper position.
In this video we discuss a full shoulder turn and how the hips really can impact that. If the hips move correctly, the core engages and the shoulders can turn to their full ability allowing the player to create the most core torque helping increase speed in the golf swing. We give you a drill to help ensure the hips are turning as they should.
Flipping or scooping hands at impact is the worst thing for quality golf shots. In this drill, you will learn how to properly set wrists “Hinge” and “Hold” during the shot – allowing the turn of your body to bring the club through.
In this lesson our instructor Maria Palozola teaches how to correct the dreaded chunk or fat shot. The good news is there are only so many causes to having your club bottom out too soon and hit the ground behind the ball.
Eliminate these causes one by one and you will be well on your way to more crisp, solid strikes.
