Trying To Move Away From Your Worst Tendencies?

Over Exaggerate Your Rehearsal Swing!

Problem: When making changes in one’s golf swing, it almost always needs to feel uncomfortable for any golfer to get the club in the correct positions. After all, this is different from what they are used to doing.

Try: In order to help ensure you are moving away from your biggest swing faults, exaggerate the feeling of what you are trying to accomplish during your practice swing.

Why: When you feel what it is like to exaggerate the new swing motion you are trying to create, chances are you will be much closer to where you need to be when you actually go to hit the ball.

Example: If you are prone to hitting slices, rehearse a hook swing and vice versa.

In these pictures, I am demonstrating the “rehearsal” downswing path of many Touring Professionals who tend to hook left or block the ball to the right. This exaggerated rehearsal swing resembles the downswing that would create the opposite ball flight pattern.
