Standing up during the golf swing is an error commonly associated with the lifting your head up classic advice. While it is perfectly normal and indeed encouraged to allow your head to rise – to lift your head up – after impact with the ball it is strongly discouraged to allow your upper body to rise before impact with the ball.
Use this drill to help you stay down on the ball. Hold your club in front and across your chest with your hands and make sure the grip end of the club points straight ahead at the target.
