STOP this DOWNSWING MOVE #golftips #golfswing

In this instruction from Me and My Golf, the instructors correct a harmful downswing move: lunging toward the target, which steepens the club path and causes over-the-top misses. By initiating the downswing with the lower body while holding the back toward the target longer, golfers can shallow out the club path for cleaner contact.

• Avoid lunging the upper body toward the target during the downswing transition.
• Start the downswing move using the lower body to establish proper swing sequencing.
• Feel like your back stays facing the target longer to naturally shallow out the club path.
• Maintaining proper path plane improves strike quality and consistency off the tee.
