This Golf Tip Is So Simple It Can Improve Any Golf Swing
PGA coach Danny Maude introduces the 'Prop Drill' to fix the common mistake of 'twisting' too hard during the downswing. By using the trail leg to keep the lower body stacked under the upper body, golfers can eliminate fat shots, tops, and slices across all clubs from irons to drivers.
Most ball-striking issues stem from the lower body drifting or twisting out of position during the downswing.
Consistent striking requires the club to land in the same spot and track on a consistent arc.
The Prop Drill involves pushing the trail leg toward the target to keep the lower body forward and underneath the torso.
Keeping the trail pocket 'back' during the downswing creates necessary space for the arms to swing from the inside.
Restriction in the swing is often a sign that you are properly resisting the urge to spin out too early.
