Want that instant hit of pure ball striking? In this video I break down one of the most misunderstood concepts in the golf swing, how your arms need to move relative to your body’s midline.
Most amateurs get stuck with their arms behind them on the downswing because they never learn to work them back across the midline before rotating.
I’ll show you exactly what this looks like using face-on and down-the-line footage of Charles Howell III, then take you through my favourite alignment stick drill to train each arm individually.
By the end of this video you’ll understand:
– What the midline is and why it’s your most important reference point
– How your lead and trail arms should move relative to the midline at every stage of the swing
– Why getting your arms across the midline BEFORE rotating is the secret to shaft lean and compression
– A simple alignment stick drill to groove the correct sequence one arm at a time
– How to take this from rehearsal to hitting real shots
This is one of those concepts that, once you feel it, completely transforms your strike quality. Get your arms in front of you first, then rip your body through as hard as you like.
If you want a follow-up video on releasing the club and fixing your chicken wing, drop a comment below, if I get enough requests, I’ll film it next.
