DO NOT LET BACKSWING GET TOO LONG swing back (counting 1-2-3) swing arms along newly established shoulder line. Concentrate on swing from hip to ball. like cracking a whip. continue to extend down that line. right elbow should be fully in front of hip More advanced swing will have arms rotate through and hips fire

driver swing lesson

the goal of today's lesson was to concentrate on the feel of the clubhead. the focus area is from hip down to ball. the emphasis is to swing the club to the ball and then stop. the path should be inside out. remember to leave right shoulder back. the feel is casting the club immediately. hips are relatively stable. remember to control clubhead with right index finger maintain width in backswing and downswing. do not reroute at the top, do not drop club at the top, swing back on same path that backswing took. remember image of downswing is that right shoulder comes forward a little but shoulder remain closed to line, then arms sweep through. for my swing i will just hold right shoulder steady and hips steady.
