Simple Way to Solid Contact

One of the biggest keys to hitting the ball crisply is
making sure you are staying still during the swing.

What I mean is a lot of people have a tendency to sway.
I love this one because it drove me mad for weeks until
I realized what I was doing wrong.

A sway -- a lateral motion of the hips and knees on the
backswing -- can be a swing killer.

To eliminate a sway, you must think about initiating your
backswing with a turning -- not sliding -- motion of your
shoulders and hips. As you swing the club back, your right
knee must remain slightly flexed but braced. The tendency
is to let the knee lose tension or bow out, which creates
the lateral motion. The right knee must anchor the swing.
Otherwise, it is unable to drive into the downswing with
the power and accuracy required to hit solid shots. Always
remember to keep the weight on the inside of the right foot,
and think turn instead of sway.

A good drill to get the feel of the weight on the inside of
the right foot is to put a golf ball under the outside of
the right foot while hitting practice balls. This drill
makes it virtually impossible to sway and will give you an
idea of what it should feel like to keep the weight on the
inside of the right foot.

Give it a try!

Go Low!
