Hip-Stick Turn: Through
Keep the hips turning through impact until the buckle faces the target.
Follow-Through TurnFollow-through
Use this if
Your hips stop at impact and the hands flip.
The fault
The hips stop at impact and the hands flip to finish the swing.
Steps
- Slide a stick through your front belt loops; cross your arms
- Turn back, then turn through until the buckle faces the target
- Drop the stick; make half swings with a 7-iron to the same finish
- Hold each finish for three seconds
- Hit 10 balls, buckle to the target every time
Buckle to the target, hold three
Reps
5 stick rehearsals, then 3 x 5 balls holding each finish for three seconds
Why it works
Giving the hips a destination past the ball (buckle facing the target) keeps the pelvis rotating through impact, so the arms are carried by the turn rather than flipping on their own.
You need
Alignment stick, club, ball
At home
At home, a resistance band anchored behind you at lead-hip height adds pull for no-ball reps.
