Yellow - Red - GREEN!


I have spoke with a few players lately that are struggling either taking the club back or following through. Some players take it back very quickly and decelerate into the ball while others struggle with taking it back slowly only to swing way too fast through the ball. In either scenario, they player has is sequencing off.


I want players to think of a stop light when they make the swing. The the takeaway begins with a smooth "yellow light" pace. At the top of the swing, imagine a "red light" that gets you a small pause at the top aligning everything for the down swing. Finally, you need to think "green light" on the way down. Always keep in mind you will get a ticket for running a red light, speeding through a green light, and you will miss your tee time if you don't get through the intersection on a yellow light.
