I recognize some of you get tired of hearing me harp on the one-piece takeaway (OPT) however I'd be willing to bet that ninety five% of you who battle with your swings do not do it.
You ought to. And consequently, although I already have a post with a drill on the way to do a OPT, I like to place up as many extraordinary tactics to teaching it as I can find.
This one is a video from Golf Channel Academy Lead Coach Erika Larkin -- she's GC's Teacher of the Week this week -- and it's but another instruct's manner of teaching the pass and the feel.
Erika is focusing on the shoulder turn worried in a one-piece takeaway. By putting the butt give up of your driver towards your belly and turning without bending your elbows, you discover ways to sense a great shoulder flip without stiffening your hands. Relaxation is very critical inside the OPT!
I would advocate the use of this drill to get the feel for the shoulder turn, then try doing my drill to experience the real position you'll be in when you swing with a OPT. This will help beef up the suitable movement when you're surely hitting balls.
