Mark CrossfieldGolfGolf SwingGolf Swing Drill

Stand up in your golf swing for pure strikes and those ball then turf feelings. Yes thats rigth stand up in the backswing, I said it. You would have been told to stay down, to keep your head down for better golf ball striking, but this often holds golfers back and makes them fake a power move, which actually costs them distance and accuracy with their irons.

Use this simple 5-second golf swing drill to stop staying down in your golf swing and learn the new feel of shoulder turn with stand up in the backswing, which will transform your striking forever.
