Golf Lesson 1 of 9
Posted April 24th, 2009 @ 12:26am by Erik J. Barzeski
Earlier today I took the first golf lesson of my life.
We worked on two things:
Takeaway
Hands inside, clubhead out, without fanning open the clubface. I have to feel as though I'm turning the clubface down or that the right hand really stays on top. The "feel thought" that seems to work best for me is to put the butt-end of the grip into my right pocket. It's not quite that extreme in reality.
Downswing
Hips forward and up, arms extended, tall on the left and also right legs. Head stays back.
Sounds simple, but this will be the tougher thing for me to get since it's really three things that should all happen in concert.
