How Cam Young Hits it 375 Yards: The Hidden Pressure Point
Ethan Bramble of Handsy Golf breaks down Cam Young's extreme driving distance by revealing a specific pressure point: the connection between the trail palm and lead thumb knuckle. He demonstrates how maxing out this pressure allows for tour-level face stability and width during the backswing using the 'Beach Ball Drill' and a specialized compact training club.
Maximize pressure from the trail palm against the lead thumb knuckle for clubhead stability.
Maintain a 'giving blood' position (trail palm to sky) to keep the trail arm pinned under the lead arm.
Create width in the takeaway by stretching the butt end of the club away from the sternum.
Allow the fingers to pivot around the lead thumb knuckle to keep the club head in line with the hands.
