This is a great drill for amateur golfers on understanding how the body should move through the impact zone. Kip Puterbaugh of Avaria Golf Academy gives you a great visual on square the clubface while getting a great body rotation! Practice this drill at home in your living room, then take it out to the range. You will be surprised at the results!
Understanding body rotation is a hard concept for an instructor to get across to the student.
Hip Rotation.
Take a golf club and place it across your hips with the clubface towards the rear and the club's toe facing up. Imagine a golf ball on a very long tee that is slightly below hip height and forward of the front hip. Now imagine trying to hit the ball with the clubface. The hips would have to rotate to get the clubface to the ball. The faster the hips rotated, the more clubhead speed would be created to hit the ball.
Body Rotation.
Take your rear arm and put it in the top of the backswing position while still holding the club across your hips with the other club. Next, rotate your body and arm in sync so that the clubhead and palm of the rear hand reach the impact position simultaneously. Now you feel a correct body rotation that will square the clubface at impact every time.
