25 feels found
In boxing, hook comes across horizontally; uppercut comes up from below. Feel trail arm swinging like throwing UPPERCUT—up and through rather than around. Creates in-to-out path.
On takeaway, allow eyes to track and follow clubhead as it moves back. Don't force head still—let it turn with club naturally. Adds side bend earlier.
At top, resist urge to PULL DOWN on handle. Feel hands stay up and wide while pelvis rotation causes club to shallow on its own. 'Leave hands up and turn—club drops down as long as you keep rotating.'
Feel backswing go UP steeply (like Nicklaus), then downswing SHALLOW dramatically. Shaft drops from steep position so by halfway down it's parallel to address plane. Like a baseball bat held high, then shallowed to strike.
During takeaway, feel hands brushing close to right thigh (staying inside) while clubhead moves further away (outside). Butt end moves ~9 inches while clubhead moves up to 36 inches.
At top of swing, feel like tipping the club slightly outward while pulling handle down. Handle comes down while clubhead works out, away from you. Like turning a steering wheel before reaching the corner.
Three-part transition: (1) BUMP—small lateral hip shift toward target, (2) DUMP—right shoulder drops down toward ball, elbow leads down, (3) TURN—body unwinds. Feel right shoulder working out toward ball.
At top of backswing, imagine pants zipper pointing at 4:30 (target at 12:00). First move down: feel zipper moving toward 10:30—diagonally away from ball. Bump tailbone further back along that diagonal.
Make what feels like an 'all arms' backswing—just set wrists and lift without consciously turning. From the top, try to cast the club as quickly as possible. Don't restrict body turn; simply don't think about turning.
Trace a figure eight with the clubhead. Take the club back UP and OUTSIDE, then loop it UNDER and INSIDE on the downswing. Think 'up, around, and under.'
Imagine hitting a topspin forehand in tennis. Feel the club traveling from low-to-high and inside-to-out through impact—like brushing up the back of the ball with your trail hand.
Feel like you're skipping a flat stone across a lake. Get your trail side lower than lead side; trail elbow leads wrist, which leads fingers in a sidearm throwing motion. The movement starts from the ground up.
