In this short golf instructional tip from Tropicana Entertainment, the instructor demonstrates the 'wave to the camera' drill using the trail hand. By keeping the palm and clubface square at shoulder height, golfers avoid opening the face or over-swinging, leading to simpler and more consistent iron shots.
Take the club back with your trail hand to shoulder height in a 'waving' palm-open position.
Avoid letting the trail hand rotate flat or open behind your back at the top.
Simply rotate your body back through impact to achieve square contact.
Practice this movement with short iron shots to build simple timing and face control.
