Do This 7 Minutes a Day to Change Your Game ⛳️

Clay Ballard from Top Speed Golf presents a 7-minute daily downswing routine to improve swing mechanics. The plan breaks down downswing improvement into three 2-minute components—shallowing in transition, holding lag, and releasing the clubface—followed by 1 minute putting all three together.

• Shallow the club shaft early in transition by relaxing the right hand so it lays down behind you.
• Maintain lag until your lead hand reaches your trail thigh before releasing power.
• Rotate your forearms through impact so the club toe points straight up at post-impact release.
• Practice each movement for 2 minutes, then dedicate 1 minute to combining all three into a full swing.
