If your downswing feels steep or slicey, it might be because you’re turning too soon. Letting your back stay to the target for just a moment longer gives your arms time to drop and the club to shallow. When the sequence changes, the strike and path clean up fast. Watch and see how this feel made a huge difference for his contact👌

So we know from here, your move wants to do this. Yes. Okay, you can see how much rotation from the hips and the torso. Let's go back up. That felt very natural. Okay, good. So no, not bad. So from here now, I want you to feel as though your back faces the target for as long as possible. Don't open your hips. Okay. So everything's going to stay closed and let the arms drop down. Let them drop down, let them drop down, let them drop. There we go. Now from here, imagine if you were to get there, all you've got to do now is turn, turn, turn, turn, turn. And that just brings the club back onto the plane. What we're looking for here is we're looking for that 10 degrees left. If we can halve it in a few shots, many. So back to the target for as long as possible. And we want something like that. If we look at that club path on that one, it's three and a half right. I'm normally two to three left. Okay, keep everything facing the target for as long as possible and swings down and through. Let the arms drop and swing through. Beautiful. Okay, good. It's good. 1.5, yeah. To the right. Yeah. Oh, is it? It's right. We did it. Inside. Let's go. Okay, just watch where the club is being delivered. Much more online, yeah. Let's make it. That's exciting. That's really good.

To improve your downswing, keep your back to the target longer. This allows your arms to drop and the club to shallow, resulting in better contact and a more accurate swing path.

  1. Keep your back facing the target longer during the downswing.
  2. Avoid opening your hips too soon to improve club path.
  3. Let your arms drop down naturally before turning.
  4. Aim for a club path that is slightly left of target.
  5. Practice this sequence to enhance contact and accuracy.
