What is your dominant hand during your downswing?

I'm currently making a concerted effort to stop casting the club during my downswing.

I have been doing a lot of reading on the downswing recently and one piece of advice caught my attention. It said that the left hand (for right handers) should be dominant. If the right hand was dominant the club would be thrown very early in the downswing.

My right hand is definitely dominant in the downswing, so I'm wondering if this is causing my problems.

Interested to see what other peoples thoughts are on this?

Your dominant hand is the hand that your glove is on, so for a right handed golfer it would be your left hand.

Having a dominant right hand on your downswing has a lot to do with the reason why you are casting the club. Almost every right handed golfer is going to have a dominant right hand, and every left handed golfer is going to have a dominant left hand. There are a few exceptions obviously. In my case I am a left handed golfer but I am right hand dominant.

Instead of thinking so much about your hands, it would definitely help you to think about having a dominant right side(focusing more on your back shoulder and rib cage getting through the ball) . That will get your body through the shot first and make it very very difficult to cast the club. I hope this helps...

I don't feel like either hand is dominant.  A specific part of the lead side of my body is always in control of my overall swing.  My hands don't do much until my release.  Then they just work together.

At the moment my right hand by a mile but thats because I'm figuring out extensor action.

Normally for me no hand is dominant, they just let me feel the club weight and how its loading.

Monitor pressure point #1 and #3 as highlighted below. If you are doing this... You're going to feel like the right hand is dominant.
