PGA Instructor Josh Zander gave Golf Digest a drill on how to make more solid impact.
Ironically, he wants you to hit more balls from the difficult.
Here's the deal: Zander says most players don't stabilize their clubs enough at impact. It's a balancing act, after all -- you want to remain relaxed enough to let the club swing easily, yet not so relaxed that the club can be knocked off-line or stopped by the ground.
His answer is to exercise hitting 1/2-shots from the rough, because so that it will make you mechanically company up your grip at impact:
Here?S a tip that will help you get the most out of hitting balls from rough. Zander says which you need to get that feeling of connectedness between your hands and your torso to hit stable shots. To practice that, he says, ?At deal with, feel stress in both armpits, the biceps pressed in opposition to the chest. As a drill, tuck the sleeves of your blouse beneath your palms and practice making half swings, retaining that pinch.?Zander says this will give you immediate feedback if you're not making a firm, decisive swing at the ball. Then, all you do is try to recreate the feeling when you make a full swing. Makes sense to me!
The article is short but the advice is simple to use. Best of all, you may use this drill even at some stage in a round if you experience the need to refresh your memory about how your swing have to feel. That sort of drill is a win-win situation for any participant!
