Shorter Golf Backswing With Power and Consistency

Why a Shorter Backswing Works Wonders. The primary advantage of stopping your backswing earlier lies in the natural sequence it fosters in your golf swing. Think about throwing a ball: you don't hold your arm back and then jerk it forward with force. Instead, there's a gradual build-up of speed—a seamless transition. Similarly, in golf, an efficient sequence of movements can lead to a more controlled and powerful swing.

THE ART OF SIMPLE GOLF RECOMMENDED PARTNERS:

The Mechanics Behind It

When we start moving backward to throw, our body sets off a chain reaction. Our torso turns and creates a stretching sensation, and though our arm goes backward, the body's momentum is already hinting at the forward motion. This fluid sequence is what we aim to replicate in a golf swing.

However, if the backswing is too long or too high, this natural sequence gets disrupted. The arms tend to take over, working twice as hard to come back down, while the body stalls. The result? Weak shots that lack speed and power, even when you try to swing harder or longer.

Simplify Your Swing for Better Results

To achieve a dynamic swing that's easier to manage, we aim for rhythm and timing through a shorter backswing. But it's not just about cutting your swing short. If approached incorrectly, it can end up feeling restricted and lose fluidity, leading to what we call a "snatchy" action.

If you want more effortless power golf swing and a consistent backswing, you need to have a golf swing that is efficient and still delivers the power and feels you can do no matter if you are a senior golf swing or a seasoned pro.

I played a round doing the 1st drill = one step. Fabulous feeling, great golfing!

I like it! Anxious to try it. Been having an issue keeping that rhythm that's so important

So glad the algorithm brought me to your channel. Wonderful way of explaining. Thank you so much 👏👏👏

Love this drill. Especially as a "recalibration" when striking starts to diminish mid round. Great way to get back by building confidence.
