COMPLETE YOUR SHOULDER TURN TO STRAIGHTEN OUT YOUR DRIVE!

COMPLETE YOUR SHOULDER TURN TO STRAIGHTEN OUT YOUR DRIVE!
With Bruce Fleisher, PGA Professional

 

The major fault for high handicappers is the shoulder turn. The reason they are high handicappers is because they don’t finish the backswing. This most likely will cause them to slice.

If the shoulders never truly get behind the ball, the upper body will dominate the swing, and cause the club to come from the outside.

Next time you are out on the practice range, concentrate on getting your left shoulder behind the ball during the backswing. This lets your lower body react first, with your hands and arms following. I think you’ll find you hit the ball a lot better!
