Hi Guys I would first like to introduce myself as Ive just joined the forum. I have just started a blog on a quest to reach the illusive 4 handicap to one day get a foot in the industry and maybe become a Pro/Coach.

Please check out my blog http://commando-to-golf-pro.blogspot.co.uk/ for my full story.

However my main question if anyone can help is how to stop a sway on the downswing? as i am trying the shadow drill (which is seen on my blog) and also the feet together drill.

I am finding these drills hard to ingrain the feelings so was wondering if anybody out there had the same problems.

Thanks Shaun.

Not sure about any drills man but best of luck on your quest.  A 4 is definitely reachable.  Natural talent in golf is a bit overrated IMO.


Try holding a football between your knees in the swing. sounds weird but it works.

It makes you rotate better.

Also on top off the backswing the first move downwards should be your hips turning back. If you get that feel, just let go and hit it as hard as you can.

and if you don't have a ball, just at setup turn your knees out wise. You should feel your body is locked, only movement you can make is a turn in the hips. ( this was my drill ) i got this from the pro i work with
