Don’t (two-way) miss this!

Can your position at the top of your backswing help you to move away from the dreaded two way miss? You bet! Look no further than Sergio Garcia. In this month’s video analysis we take a closer look into why the 2017 Masters Champion is so consistent off the tee. Click on Dave’s video below

In summary…Ideally in an “on-plane” swing, if the club is short of parallel to the ground, the club should also point to the left of the target line at the top of your swing. Only if your club makes it all the way to parallel with the ground, should your backswing be parallel to the target line.

If you are someone who tends to both hook and block your shots, getting your backswing “on plane” will help you to move away from the dreaded two way miss by helping to get the club more “in front” of you on the downswing.
