How to do it

  1. Set up with your feet touching together and the club in your normal position.

  2. As you start down, step your lead foot into its normal address width.

  3. Let the foot landing trigger your hips to rotate open through impact.

  4. Repeat for 10 reps, then hit soft shots with the same feeling.

Goal

Link the pressure shift to hip rotation so the hips are open, not square, at impact.

Feel cue

Feel the step land just before your hips spin open.

Mistake to avoid

Don't spin the hips before the foot lands — the step comes first.
