This is one of the most important things in the swing. Everyone should be doing this.
Just take a standard neutral grip, then slip your right forefinger down the side of the club and do feet together practice swings. This will go a long way in solving everything in the backswing and the downswing. 👍
Love this, I need this. Thanks Russ
If I go to many churches they all teach similar lessons, following the bible guidelines. So goes golf instruction on YT, stork drill is making its way around golf instructors, which script are you guys following?
I'm very right hand and arm dominant so I fight coming over the top with my right shoulder and forearm. I've been working on keeping my elbows a little closer together during the swing which seems to help prevent that, plus some shallowing in the backswing. This lesson is a very good addition to my thought process and remedy for over-the-top. Thank you for this lesson!
Yet another fault I’m guilty of.
What is that low thing rolling around on the grass in many videos?
This is really good. It would have been good to focus a bit more on why facing the elbow forward instead of facing the target is better (I.e. because your elbow can't fold behind you if it's facing towards the target so you end up turning it anyway but often too late and therefore it creates the outside to inside path) . I saw this in another video but actually forgot so it's a nice reminder.
This is the single most thing that I struggle with during the golf swing… the dreaded RIGHT ELBOW! 😩
Thank you for another excellent golf tip kind sir!
Russell, thank you so much for this tip. My swing has been so jacked up lately and I’ve tried so many things. Tried it today and after a half a bag of range balls, I’m striking it better than I have in a long time! You rock!
30 years of playing golf and taking lessons. No one ever told me about keeping my forearm to the sky during the downswing – like skipping a rock. Russ introduced me to this a few months ago in a lesson. For me, it was the motion and feeling I needed to get my hands ahead at contact and truly compress the ball. I feel like I try to HOLD that forearm up as long as possible. Instant different sound from contact. Thanks Russ – this for me was a key that voided many poor downswing motions over the top.
Great lesson. Thanks
Is Clay Ballard copying you or is it the other way around?
What’s the driver version of this?
Great tip! Thanks!
Pete cowen says it too👍
