Prevent Tilts and Sways in Your Swing

Many people sway or tilt during their swing because they are not turning at the hips correctly. This will cause you to over swing your arms, prevent a proper weight shift, and take the club off of its swinging path.

Find a Sweet Spot for Sweet Shots

Hitting off of the toe or heel of the club face causing hooking, slicing, or poor distance. Teeing the ball up to high can cause you to make contact too low on the clubface.

All in the Hips

Slouching or bending from the waist, not the hips. This will cause a poor rotation so you will lose distance and power.

Gain Five to Ten Yards

You need to hit the ball a few yards further.

Wearing Bifocals Can Harm Your Swing

Wearing bifocal or trifocal glasses can offset your balance and swing. This often happens because you are trying to see below the bifocal or trifocal lenses in order to look at the ball. This will cause you to lower your chin and offset your balance.

Tug of War Driving

Need to create leverage and power in your swing.

Create Compression and Spin Like the Pros

You need to learn how to build up compression and spin.

Waggle Correctly or Not at All

Waggling can leave the club too far inside if not done correctly. Remember, if you wait any longer than 8 seconds of addressing the ball, whatever picture you formed in your mind begins to fade.

Keep Your Right Pocket Empty

Keeping extra balls or a pocket watch in your right pocket, cell phone clipped on your right side, or other objects that will interfere with your right arm through your hitting area.

Slicing Checklist

You are slicing so the ball flies to the left of the target line and then curves right to finish towards the right of the target.
