Focus
Hand Path & Staying ConnectedExecution
Place a small, partially deflated ball between the bicep and torso of the front arm. Take swings off a tee, focusing on keeping the ball in place until after contact. This forces the hands to stay connected to the body and prevents casting.
Focus
Load & SeparationExecution
Start with feet together. Step back with the back foot to simulate a load, then immediately begin the forward stride and swing. This drill exaggerates the feeling of loading into the back hip and creating separation.
Focus
Front Leg Stability & Power TransferExecution
Take swings off a tee with the specific intent of 'posting up' on a firm front leg. After contact, hold the finish for 3 seconds. This reinforces a strong front side block to improve energy transfer.
