How to do it
Stand in front of a mirror in your golf posture.
Swing slowly to the impact position and stop.
Check that your lead hip pocket has moved toward the target compared to address.
Reset and repeat 10 times, gradually increasing swing speed.
Goal
Build visual awareness of the forward move that hanging back is missing.
Feel cue
Feel your lead pocket sit ahead of where it started at address.
Mistake to avoid
Don't just tilt the upper body forward — the whole lead hip should move toward the target.
