There are no secret moves that are going to overcome a slew of bad golf habits. Golf is a complex sport and a lot harder than it looks. It’s brought many a brain surgeon and star athlete to their knees. There are some key fundamentals that can be overlooked or just forgotten from time to time. Pressing your forearms together is one of these.
Both on the backswing and dowswing it’s important to feel your forearms pressing together. It helps maintain a consistent link between the body and the club and forces the arms to work together instead of add odds with one another. This helps release the club at impact among lots of other good things.
Keeping the forearms pressed together won’t guarantee a great golf shot, but not doing this almost always guarantees trouble. The concept works for short shots and putts as well as the full swing. Add this to your list of quick checks when you’re in the middle of a round trying to figure out why you’ve gotten off-track. During the next pro tournament watch players like Dustin Johnson, you can see them demonstrate how important this is.
