GENERAL SWING BASICS

Grip:
Keep hands soft. See 2 or 3 knuckles of left hand.
Grip sits in the fingers of the right hand, not in the palm.

Aim:
Aim straight or to the left of your target, never right.
Ball position:
Forward of centre, (but changes with slope)
Driver = Ball Forward; Short Shots = Middle to Back.

Hands:
Hands are ‘set’ going back and ‘un-set’ coming down. Train hand speed.

Back swing:
Club goes back on line and turn. Feel throwing position. Weight stays on inside right foot.

Weight transfer:
Transfer weight going through with footwork. Weight must go forward and finish on left side. Right foot ends on toe.
