This 10 Minute Golf Drill Beats Spending 10,000 Hours On The Range

Golf instructor Mags demonstrates the Long Arc Follow Through drill to help golfers improve ball striking consistency, face control, and low point management. By forcing straight arms in an abbreviated follow-through, this drill trains necessary body rotation, thoracic extension, and side bend to eliminate T-Rex arms and flipping.

• Maintain the initial distance between your elbows through impact and into the follow-through to eliminate T-Rex arms or chicken wings.
• Full chest and hip rotation is required to maintain straight arms into the follow-through without forcing arm bends.
• Combine thoracic extension (standing tall through impact) with trail side bend (low trail shoulder) to ensure crisp ground contact.
• Start practicing waist-high to waist-high swings, holding the finish position to inspect key checkpoints before building up to full swings.
