Manolo Teaches Golf explains how to improve ball-striking consistency by keeping the elbows 'stuck' to the obliques throughout the swing. Using his signature high-energy style, Manolo emphasizes the 'sticky' sensation needed to maintain arm-body connection for better control and impact.
Tuck your elbows firmly against your obliques (which Manolo calls the 'Lona') at setup.
Maintain a 'sticky' connection between your arms and torso for as long as possible during the swing.
Focus on the sensation of your elbows staying in place as you make contact with the ball.
Connection is the key to hitting the ball more consistently and avoiding disconnected arm movements.
