Why This Drill Works (Kinetic Mechanics)

C-posture reduces room for the arms and makes rotary depth hard to create. Rebuilding the address from a hip hinge instead of upper-back rounding gives the torso space to turn and lowers the need for compensations like early extension.

How to Perform the Drill

The coach gives no set rep count. Our general guideline: 3 sets of 10 slow rehearsal reps, then half swings with a ball, adding speed only once the steps feel natural.

  1. Stand tall and place a club across the front of your hips to feel where the hinge starts.

  2. Push the hips back until the chest tilts forward while keeping the upper back long instead of rounded.

  3. Let the arms hang under the shoulders and lightly retract the shoulder blades so the chest stays open.

  4. Make slow half-turns from this address shape without losing the distance between sternum and belt buckle.

  5. Reset between reps any time the shoulders slump or the pelvis drifts toward the ball.
