The VAST majority of mistakes I see club golfers make is that they get too vertical, and not sufficiently horizontal. The horizontal is required because the ball is aside the player. The vertical is necessary because the ball is on the ground. Better players get both, but most amateurs get only the vertical part. In a very general sense, I’ll state it like this: the golf swing has two components, a vertical one and a horizontal one. GolfWRX readers know me as a teacher who places more emphasis on impact and not how to, but today I want to discuss something that most amateurs get wrong and almost all pros get right. That sounds like a contradiction in terms, but if you think about it, we can notice certain motions that most elite level players have in their swing. There are similarities to be noticed among the greats of the game, however, despite their variety. That’s one of the eternal debates in our game, and as with anything as dynamic as the golf swing, I don’t think there is ONE secret.

That immediately gives them an understanding of the golf motion, including shoulder turn, weight shift, extending down the line, and the follow-through. I have continued that mantra throughout my teaching career and will always get a beginner to take a soccer ball, stand in their golf address position with the ball between their hands, and get them to throw the ball to me underhand. My great friend and mentor Phil Ritson, who I regard as one of the best teachers on the planet, has always said: “The name of the game is underhand!” That was his favorite expression.
