PRE-SWING Fundamentals- Grip, Aim, and Setup/Posture 
Keys to a good swing are sound pre-swing fundamentals: 

These fundamentals are important to allow the club to swing and your body to move properly. Incorrect placement of your hands, grip pressure, poor alignment, or not proper posture will lead to swing faults. These areas will always need your attention to ensure positions are correct. It's easy to get off track! Using a mirror at home is a great way to check your posture, on the range use alignment rods on the ground to verify your alignment is correct. Do 5 minutes a day of only grip placement and tension awareness holding the club. Check out the videos below. 
Grip- Placement more in fingers vs. palms, maintain same pressure during entire swing, no tighter than a 4 on a scale of 1-10 (tightest 10) 

Aim- Feet, Knees, Hips, and Shoulders are parallel to the target line (clubface square pointing down target line) Leading edge of clubface square and aimed down an imaginary line at target. Use alignment rods when practicing to check your aim. Tour pros always practice their alignment. Watch them on the range.


Setup/Posture- Tilt hip bones downward to point toward ground, feet shoulder width apart, athletic balance, slight knee flex, arms hang down soft not firm. If your hamstring or hip flexors are tight it will make a proper posture more difficult for you. 

Pivot Drill
This drill will teach you the correct movement of your body into the backswing and thru to the finish. Perform this drill with a mirror in front of you moving slowly at first to see and feel correct movements. Correct sequence and timing will translate into being able to hit the ball with more distance.
