High-Finish Reach

In a practice swing, the instant you reach impact, raise your hands so the clubhead points at a spot high above your lead shoulder.

Duration: 6 min
Reps: 3 sets of 10
Equipment: none
Level: Intermediate

How to do it

Take your setup with a club, without a ball.
Swing back and start the downswing normally.
The instant you reach impact, raise your hands so the clubhead points high above your lead shoulder.
Check that your body kept turning to produce the lift, not just your wrists.
Repeat for 3 sets of 10.

Goal

Retrain the exit direction from low-and-left to up-and-around.

Feel cue

Feel the clubhead climb past your lead ear instead of staying low across your body.

Mistake to avoid

Lifting only your arms and wrists to fake the high finish while your body stays stalled — the exit direction has to come from continued rotation, not a wristy flick upward.
