This Swing Mistake is Killing Your Power (FIX IT FAST)
Golf instructor Kerrod Gray highlights a common swing flaw where golfers fake a full shoulder turn using only their arms. He demonstrates how moving the upper body as one unit and turning the chest properly creates coil and distance.
Avoid pulling your arm under your chin to fake a full backswing turn.
Drive the backswing using your chest and upper body moving as one unit.
Place a club across your shoulders to verify the grip points behind the ball at the top of the turn.
Ensure your trailing shoulder blade turns through until it faces towards the target.
