Feel that when hands reach RIGHT THIGH in downswing, shaft is still PARALLEL TO GROUND—not released. Pause here in practice to ingrain.
Imagine a chain attached to the butt of your grip, running up through your lead arm to your lead shoulder. Start the downswing by "pulling the chain" with your lead shoulder—the clubhead follows last.
Feel LEFT hand pulling clubhead through impact rather than right hand hitting. Practice one-handed swings with left hand, feeling back of left hand pointing at ground through impact.
Feel like your weight is already "stacked" over your lead leg at address and stays there. Sense pressure in your lead hip and thigh before you even start the swing.
When going for maximum distance, only thought: hit ball with right hip. Get lower body as open and cleared as possible at impact.
Feel like you're brushing the grass with the clubhead moving FORWARD toward the target—not down into the ground. A long, shallow brush, not a chop.
Feel like the logo on the back of your glove is leading toward the target through impact. The back of your lead hand stays facing the target as long as possible.
In the finish, feel like your trail shoulder is trying to bury itself under your chin. It works DOWN and THROUGH, ending lower than where it started.
Through impact, feel like you're dragging a heavy, wet mop across the floor toward the target. The handle leads, the mop head trails. Sense the "drag" of the clubhead behind your hands.
At finish, trail shoulder should be closer to target than any other body part. Feel body rotating fully so chest faces target and shoulder has 'passed' everything else.
Feel your head perfectly still and quiet while everything else moves around it. Body turns, arms swing, hips rotate—but the head floats in place like it's suspended by a string from above.
Feel chest 'pointed ahead of ball at impact'—outpacing club on downswing. Chest rotates through faster than arms/club.
