Arm Rotation Drills

[PhilTheFragger]

Had another lesson today, and its starting to come together at last.

However i am still pushing a few 20 degrees right and its due to the club face being slightly open on the downswing, Ie a failure to rotate the arms correctly

Does anyone have any tips or drills that could help

Cheers

I suffer from exactly the same fault, leaving the clubface open so I'd be interested to see the responses. I think I do it due to my grip pressure being too tight.

OK....when I have this problem, I do the old Faldo/Leadbetter split hand + tee in grip drill. Works for me.

Try this

I haven't watched it all, but I'm sure it's the same. I stick a tee in the end of the grip too ...that's another drill which is cool.

I'm going to try that myself!

What's the tee in grip drill?

What's the tee in grip drill?

It's like the "L" to "L" drill.....

I gave the separated hand drill a try today, and must say I was almost tempted to start using the baseball grip. I very fine draw with my hands touching.

I found using it in my practise swings, then playing my shot with my normal swing had a nice result.

Good Luck

Looks like a good one to try, thanks guys
