A Word on Your Finish

The goal of the golf swing is to make solid impact with the

ball. I think that everyone would agree there. However, don't

get neglect a proper follow-through because the ball is already

gone. You can actually correct many of the problems with your

swing by analyzing your finish. 



Here's a quick check to get you started. Step up to a ball, take

your regular swing, but hold your finish. Now look back at your

forearms. What you should see is an X. Your arms should be

completely crossed. The middle of your forearms should be where

the X crosses. Not your wrists, or your elbows, but the middle

of your forearms.



Now, if you don't see that X, it means you are blocking the

ball, and not releasing correctly. You're also giving up a ton

of power and distance.
