Forget 1,000 Hours on the Range—Master This Right Arm Move Instead
PGA-certified instructor and professional golfer Josh Oddy demonstrates how to structure a high-performance driving range and short game practice session. He details a crucial right arm position concept at setup to control club face delivery, eliminate pulling or late flipping, and improve compression. Additionally, Josh shares actionable drills using resistance bands and alignment sticks to build consistency and measurable practice habits.
Set up the right upper arm in external rotation paired with an extended right wrist position to improve square club face delivery at impact.
Use a resistance band wrapped behind the back to maintain swing width and proper foot pressure during the transition.
Perform measurable dispersion tests (e.g., measuring radius distance of 5 shots) rather than hitting aimless range balls.
Place an alignment stick outside the ball on the short game green to keep chipping paths on plane and improve strike contact.
