Rising instinctively The unconscious mind often intervenes. When the body senses the club approaching too low, it instinctively rises to avoid taking a divot before the ball. The difficulty lies in gauging how much to rise — too much, and topped shots result; too little, and fat shots follow.
BY the time most amateur golfers reach impact, their posture has already begun to slip.
Elbow flexA strong impact position requires more than weight shift and hip clearance. The right elbow should retain a slight flex and remain behind the left. This subtle detail ensures the clubface meets the ball squarely, delivering power and precision without the need to rise.
