TAKEAWAY DRILLS
Triangle Drill
Use this drill to feel a one piece takeaway. By placing the butt end of the club into your stomach and then using only your thumbs and index fingers you will feel how you need to move the back of the trail side shoulder blade, back and down to keep the one piece unit of the clubhead, hands, arms, and shoulders moving in the correct order.
Club Shaft on Hip Drill
This drill will help you feel the correct sequence to begin the swing. Taking the club away properly make's it much easier to swing the club down into a good impact position. Go slow when practicing this drill, look at yourself in a mirror as you do this drill for correct positions.
Connect to target awareness
Eyes on Target Drill- It's amazing how the brain works. Focus your attention on where you want your ball to go and your brain will make your body move correctly to do it. If you are mentally "golf ball bound" your body will not react properly.
If you find it hard for your body to move into any of these positions there could be a physical limitation which is not allowing you to get in that position. Specific stretching exercises may be needed to assist you. Check out the swing faults list here:
