Movement and Rhythm in the Golf Swing | Achieving a Single Figure Handicap | Padraig Harrington
Three-time major champion Padraig Harrington introduces a series of rhythm-focused drills designed to help golfers achieve a single-figure handicap. He emphasizes a 'shoulder-to-shoulder' swing philosophy and dynamic movement through stepping drills to eliminate tension and improve club plane.
Focus on a shoulder-to-shoulder swing length for all shots under 150 yards to maintain maximum efficiency.
Avoid being static; keep the feet and head moving naturally to promote an athletic, relaxed posture.
Use the Step-Back and Step-Forward drill to instinctively learn proper weight transfer without overthinking mechanics.
Start the club forward before your backswing to help keep the swing on a better plane and improve impact consistency.
Maintain a relaxed posture by letting arms hang naturally and avoiding a forced 'golf stance'.
