Don't Choke The Club:
Hold it tightly enough so you're in control, but loosely enough that
someone could tug it out of your hands.
Hands Ahead:
Many slicers start with the hands behind the ball. At address the left
hand should be ahead of the ball so a straight line could run down
the left arm, through the hands, to the ball.
Head Behind:
If your head isn't behind the ball at address, chances are you aren't
shifting yourweight properly in the backswing. Encourage the head-
back position by swiveling your chin to the right before starting the
swing.
One-Piece Takeaway:
Starting the club away from the ball in "one piece" means moving
your body parts together. Visualize your arms as two long sides of a
triangle, with the base a line across your shoulders.
When you start your back-swing, think of turning the entire triangle
- shoulders, arms, and hands, right down to the club - together.
Don't break your wrists too early in the backswing: let them hinge
naturally as the club swings up past waist height.
Solid Right Side:
Body sway during the swing leads to poor contact. Keep your lower
bodystill by using your right leg as a brace. Don't stiffen it so much
that you can't make a good turn, but keep it firm so it can support the
swing.
