Strike It Pure Every Time (It’s Simpler Than You Think)
Chris Ryan demonstrates a 4-step framework to achieve pure iron contact by controlling the club's low point. By focusing on arm swing, lateral hip shift, body rotation, and post-impact extension, golfers can consistently strike the ground target-side of the ball.
Hitting the ground with an iron is non-negotiable for pure contact.
The low point of the swing is controlled by blending three moves: arms swinging down, lateral hip shift, and body rotation.
To avoid heavy contact and 'get the club out of the ground,' the body must move from forward bend into extension through impact.
The Tape Drill provides instant feedback to diagnose if you are hitting behind the ball.
Lateral shift moves the swing's arc forward; rotation moves it even further toward the target.
