Golf instructor Aimee Cho details two essential drills to enhance iron shot precision. By utilizing Tiger Woods' signature backswing top pause drill and a synchronized downswing push drill, golfers learn to check core coiling, maintain proper spine posture, and avoid head dipping at impact.
Pause at the top of your backswing for 3 to 5 seconds to verify core coil tension and club weight support on your right index finger.
Maintain hands at around ear level at the top of the backswing to set up an effortless lower-body transition.
Pause mid-downswing when the shaft is parallel to the ground to establish proper posture without collapsing the head or spine.
Drive through impact by sync-moving the right shoulder, right hand, and right hip forward together.
