Practice Your Weight Shift

A lot of wild shots are caused by a poor weight shift.

To help you get a good feeling for the proper weight shift on the course, make it part of your pre-shot routine. Make a slow motion practice swing and load almost all of your weight on your back foot when you are fully coiled on the back swing.

On the down swing, shift all of your weight to your front foot and finish the swing with only your toes on the back foot touching the ground. Of course your front foot will be on the ground too…

This little rehersal will signal to your body how the weight transfer should feel.
