Four Tricky Moves
If you swing the club too far to the inside during your backswing this drill will inform you. Most amateurs pull the club to the inside during the backswing putting the swing immediately off plane. The result is a golf swing that is too planed.
The Back to Wall Drill:
This drill will tell you if you have overly plane swing. First and principal, check your ball point and your distance to the ball at address, as this sign is the most common cause of a pole. Remember! ; try to work on fitting your basics first before using drills to fix your problems. Most swing faults start with poor fundamentals.
Now find a wall that you can set up too. Have your butt approximately six inches away from the wall. To take a full swing with the wall in the way your path will need to become more upright. Take gradual swings to start, and act on getting to the top and back to the ball without hitting the wall. It should feel different, but all new movements do. Work on swinging gradually until you can make a full swing without making contact with the wall. Master this drill until you can do it every time without hitting the wall.
The early backward wrist break teaches you something pros never do - How to break the wrists during the back swing!
Play well.

Tips From Derek Nannen, PGA
![]() | Camilo Villegas Camilo’s aggressive swing has proven itself to be a winning one, as he already has notched 2 wins in 3+ years on the PGA Tour. |
ADD WIDTH FOR MORE POWER
At only 160 pounds, Camilo Villegas averages a whopping 291 yards off the tee, making him among the top 40 for drivers on Tour. He’s often depicted as a muscular player, but in reality he’s a small-framed guy with great definition. Now, are his muscles his power source? Nope. Villegas understands width and how it builds power. His strong muscles are a bonus.

Grab a 2x4 and push it toward your target as far as you can while turning your body to the left and extending your arms. This will help you add a ton of width to your swing. |
Check out how far he keeps his hands from his body in each photo. From a physics standpoint, by adding width, he’s increasing his arc, which leads to a faster clubhead speed. Combine that with how nicely he winds his upper body and still allows his lower body to be stable, and you have a recipe for a smashing drive. He’s wide, flexible and in perfect balance. If you can copy that, you’ll be huge!

MAINTAIN THE FORWARD LEAN
Two of the best players still in their 20s on the PGA Tour, J.B. Holmes and Anthony Kim understand completely what it means to maintain a forward-tilting spine angle through impact. Also, notice the separating of the hands from the body. By maintaining the forward upper-body lean, the arms/hands have more room to store lag and eventually release over the golf ball. If these angles are lost, it’s because the spine is upright, which if it happens, will translate into poor consistency and lousy ground contact.
The last thing you can learn here is their head positions. They’re facing the ball! Don’t feel like you need to keep your head down or lift it too far up. Keep it facing the ball, and you’ll rotate more effectively.

We chose a few Tour professionals to spotlight (you can learn something from literally everyone on the PGA Tour), and with the help of some of our popular instructors, we put together a few simple, easy-to-digest elements of their swings that you should incorporate into your golf game. And while no two players swing exactly the same (yes, even Adam Scott and Tiger Woods have differences), one thing holds true: Every one of these featured Tour pros can teach you something about becoming a better player. With the help of Rick Sessinghaus, PGA, as our model, get ready to turn your swing into one that’s Tour-worthy. Read on!
STACK YOUR IMPACT POSITION TO THE LEFT
Take a look at Boo Weekley and Vijay Singh at impact. I can’t help but admire how well both pros compress the ball against the clubface and then hit the ground with their iron shots. They’re rock-solid at impact and stacked over their left side.
Another key component to a solid impact position is the positioning of the body. Check out the spine, and note how it tilts away from the target. That helps them stay behind the ball. At the same time, at least 75 percent of their weight hovers over their left leg. This weight shift is vital in order to release the golf club at impact effectively.
Finally, look at the back of the left hand on both players. The glove logo is facing the target. This ensures a square clubface and a straight shot.
