Learn To Swing Inside Out

The average golfer tends to pull the golf ball. When this occurs the golfers you are swinging over the top and your body will be either straight up and down at impact or even facing forward.

Better players tend to be leaning back at contact which allows the club to attack from the inside. Why? They are using their legs and hips to hit the golf ball and when they fire the lower body the upper body tends to hang back.

This is what gets the inside out swing path to hit the golf ball straight.

Start thinking about your upper body and which direction it goes when hitting golf balls. Start to lean it back slightly and you can cure a pull in a couple swings. Keep doing this drill as much as possible and in not time you will swing from the inside.

Try this the next time you go out to hit golf balls. If you’re at home start doing this drill in practice swings every night.

Stop Getting Stuck With The Trail Elbow

Getting stuck can be caused by early extension but also, as we discuss today is the trail elbow. Getting the trail elbow too far behind on the backswing it can cause being too narrow and not enough width.

How can you stop getting stuck or trapped? Being too tight into impact can cause flipping and having to work the hands to quickly.

If you focus on keeping the trail elbow at the half way back area in the golf swing, it will become easy to return back to the ball with the hands in front because of the better placement of the arms in the backswing.

Transition will be easier and less manipulation required to return into the golf ball. A great drill for this is to just use the right hand only with support under the trail elbow from the other hand.

Practice this drill and your golf swing will start to feel simple and of course will help you stop getting stuck as well as more consistency and distance for golf.
