The Address Feet are shoulder width apart and weight is on the balls of the feet, dynamic position. Sole of the club is placed on the ground behind the ball, squarely facing the target.
Address Your grip should not be too tight that there's no more room for wrist movement, or too loose that the club slips off your fingers. Two hands become one In class we used the intertwining grip Square stance Weight on the balls of the feet Knees remain flexed (dynamic position) Arms are straight Head is down Keep your eyes on the ball.
The start of the swing As club continues to rise, the wrists will bend. Right elbow stays close to the body. Knees remain flexed (dynamic position) and eyes stay on the ball. Arms stay straight as long as possible. Weight begins to shift to back foot. Head stays down, eyes on the ball.
Top of the backswing Head is still down, eyes are still on the ball. Dynamic position is still maintained. Head is looking over the left shoulder. Weight is now on the back foot. Notice the club is pointed in the direction the hit should be going. And the club face is looking at the ball.
Downswing Hips initiate the downswing Eyes remain on the ball Forward arm straightens Do not force the club downward Let the club do the work! Weight returns to the balanced, dynamic position of the address
Through The Ball Forward arm leads the back hand Back hip turns to the target line of the shot Back hand is explosive power – Forward arm is straight at contact Weight moves to forward foot
The Finish The V position of your arms should be retained as you follow through Hips are turned to face the target line Weight is transferred to the forward foot The back heel may rise due to the momentum Hands and arms will be over your shoulders
