Why This Drill Works (Kinetic Mechanics)
Disassociates the lower body shift from the arm release. If you cast (throw the clubhead) or hang back, you will hit the wall. Forces a 'hands-leading' delivery.
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.
Stand a 5-iron length away from a wall behind you.
Place club at the top of the swing (simulated backswing).
Bump the hips laterally towards the target (shift weight).
Simultaneously 'pump' the arms down in front of you.
Ensure the clubhead stays inside and does not hit the wall.
