In this video, Stuart Cartwright from Good Golf Coaching demonstrates how a simple household broom can be used to master angle of attack and trajectory control. By using the large surface area of the broom head, golfers can clearly visualize how wrist angles and handle paths affect the strike for both low-flighted wedges and high-launching drivers.
Maintain a 'kink' (extension) in the lead wrist to provide leverage and control the broom's weight through the strike.
For low-flighted wedges, move the grip around to the left through impact to square the face while maintaining a downward angle of attack.
To hit high-launching drivers, feel the 'swing moment' where the back right corner of the club (or broom) strikes the ball to increase loft.
The broom's weight helps golfers feel the transition from 'pulling' the handle to 'swinging' the clubhead into the ball.
The 6-iron represents a blend of the two motions, sitting in the middle of the bag with a neutral path and moderate downward strike.
