Not all bodies are created equal - therefore all swings cannot be created equal. As a coach it can be hard to know the best way to help a golfer when their body has very different limitations - or in this case - obstacles - than your own.
Sometimes we have to be creative 😂

I’ve had a lot of new followers recently, so I thought I’d share a little more about my golfing journey.
Playing golf at a high level certainly doesn’t tell you everything there is to know about the golf swing, but I truly believe it helps me understand my clients, their journey, and the work ethic needed to achieve ones personal best.

What: Feel the difference between shaft parallel in the backswing and shaft parallel in the downswing.

Why: The shaft reaches the same checkpoint (shaft parallel), but your body and club move differently to get there. This drill helps you understand - and feel - those differences.

Start slowly and deliberately, then gradually connect the movements into a more fluid swing.

Too many golfers think they need to hold their wrist angles and simply rotate through impact.

But trying to hold on can make it harder to square the club face - and rob you of clubhead speed.

Your body turns, your arms swing, and your wrists release. Those movements work together to deliver the club with speed.

You don’t crack a whip by holding on to every angle. You let it go. 💥

Comment “SEQUENCE” for the drill 🔢

You probably understand golf sequencing better than you think ⚾️🏌️‍♀️

Think about throwing a ball. You step, turn and let your arm whip through. Those movements overlap, but they have an order—you don’t fire everything at once.

A golf swing uses a similar idea: pressure shifts towards the lead side, the pelvis leads, and the chest, arms and club follow.

The arms have a job too. Good sequencing doesn’t mean leaving them behind while you spin your body as hard as possible.

It’s about getting everything working together, in the right order, so speed builds through to the ball.

Try a few relaxed throws, then bring that same flowing feel into your swing. 👊

🔔 Comment ALIGNMENT and I’ll send you a FREE video explaining exactly how to align yourself when you’re setting up to hit a shot!

📝 Your body and clubface don’t aim at the same spot 👀

Think of your alignment like railway tracks 🚂 The clubface points towards your target, while your feet, hips and shoulders line up parallel to that line

For a right-handed golfer, that means your body is aligned slightly left of the target. The opposite applies for a left-handed golfer.

It can feel strange because we stand beside the ball. Trying to aim your body directly at the target can leave you making adjustments during the swing.

Start with the clubface, then build your stance around it. A simple alignment check can make a big difference 😮‍💨
