INSTRUCTION SWING SEQUENCE Analysis By Top 25 Coach Paul Foston
-
1 Collin’s arms hang out slightly at address, which helps to create lots of widths, so he’s not going to pick the club straight up and down. He then has a very slow, deliberate takeaway – and it works. He’s preparing himself to fire the gun.

His hands stay close to the body with the club outside the line. Many club golfers get the club behind them by going under the optimum swing plane. This fans the club and opens the face, so they have to then use their hands to try to recover it.
