P3 Change of Direction Drill
| Target Fault | Focus Area |

Why This Drill Works (Kinetic Mechanics)
Trains the proper kinematic sequence (Lower Body leads). Initiating the downswing with the hips while the club is still loading creates dynamic lag and prevents the upper body from dominating (casting).
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.
Swing back to P3 (Lead arm parallel to ground).
Immediately change direction by bumping the lower body towards the target.
Feel the lag increase as the lower body goes forward while the club is still finishing the backswing.
Swing through to finish.
