TRANSCRIPTS
Hi, I'm Michael Breed, host of The Golf Fix. Today
is Facebook Question, it comes to us from Will Lambert.
How do I start the backswing on the right path?
All right Will, this is another question that I get
a lot. Very simply, what we're gonna do is we're
gonna get 2 alignment rods. We're gonna set this alignment
rods behind the ball on the target line, so if
I'm trying to hit the ball down this line here,
just to the right of that blue flag, I'm gonna
set that path just like that. Then, what I'm gonna
do is I'm gonna tee the ball up on the
front part of that path. Now, what I wanna do
is I wanna keep that clubhead in that channel, pointing
that club shaft into that space. What you are gonna
notice in this down line view, is that this club
is gonna move on an arch, because I'm still pointing
that shaft into that channel just like that but the
head will come out of the channel. The right path
is making sure that that shaft is pointing down that
line, initially, the head is gonna start in there, and
now it's gonna swing out as we start to go
this way, that's the right path for that club to
move back in. So you need to get a couple
of these alignment rods, set them on the target line,
do a little rehearsal, you've seen a lot of players
make this little mock backswings before. Do that little rehearsal,
and then make that swing just like that, and that's
how you're gonna make sure that you start that club
on the right path. The other thing that you could
do is you can watch me, Michael Breed every Monday
night, 7:00 PM. It's called The Golf Fix and it's
about improving your game.
