Back to the Target, Chest to the Target
Caution:
A golf club can be a dangerous weapon. It should never be swung in a group.
The Swing Sequence
Swing Test with a Ball
Athlete can make the complete swing to the finish position with speed and balance.
Goal is to swing the club to the finish — not just to hit the ball.
Start with a tee in the ground, and attempt to strike the tee on the forward motion.
Add a ball on the tee and continue the same motion.
Try without a tee.
Coaching Suggestions
Use tennis ball for this drill, first, so athletes may have more success. If tennis balls are not available use a whiffle or some other soft ball.
Demonstrate swing.
