Perfect ON PLANE Golf Swing In SECONDS (Unique & EASY Drill)

PGA Pro Bob Menzies introduces a unique and easy drill using a standard umbrella to help golfers achieve a perfect on-plane swing. By visualizing staying 'dry' during the backswing and 'wet' during the shallowing phase of the downswing, players can eliminate slices and over-the-top moves. The video breaks down the takeaway, wrist hinge, and the 'question mark' move for a more consistent and powerful impact.

• Keep the club head 'outside' or in front of your hands during the initial takeaway to stay on plane.
• The wrist hinge should begin approximately when the hands pass the trail leg (the pocket area).
• A 'flat' takeaway where the club gets behind the body early leads to an over-the-top slice.
• Shallowing the downswing involves a move that mimics drawing a question mark to attack the ball from the inside.
• Simplifying your swing thought to a single word like 'Umbrella' can prevent mental 'handcuffing' during the 2-second swing.
