PGA instructor Jake Hutt introduces a specialized transition drill designed to eliminate 'over the top' swing paths. By using the chin to apply downward pressure on the lead shoulder, golfers can maintain their height and prevent early lunging during the downswing.
Use your chin to 'hold' your lead shoulder in place at the top of the backswing.
Applying downward pressure from the chin helps maintain height throughout the transition.
This feeling prevents the common mistake of getting too low too early in the downswing.
Focusing on this connection helps smooth out a steep or over-the-top swing path.
