Key Moments
Take it to the range

- 2Shift your weight slightly to the left leg, feeling the left shoulder move forward.
- 3Use a longer, smoother backswing and allow the club to fall, avoiding aggressive acceleration.
- 4Focus on moving your body up and away from the ground through impact, not down.
