Controlling spine angle with arm swing is one example of how ideas, positions, and compensations meet to form a golf swing around the concept of impact. Perfect impact requires a perfect idea around which to form motion. That\u2019s why I founded The Open Stance Academy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following video is nothing explanatory in and of itself. I use my own swing, within my own rediscovery process, to give my students an idea of how the process of perfecting impact works. For example, after three weeks, I am hitting 400 balls per session. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m working on first things. Before I can make lasting swing changes, my body has to be ready first. I stretch for fifteen minutes before each session. Even when I was at 100 reps in week one, my stretch routine was the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I notice my hands are getting much stronger. I know it because now my clubs feel like toothpicks. Hence, I loaded them up with lead tape until I could feel the heads again. Hand strength comes before perfect impact. Of course, when I say perfect impact, I mean every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is my current move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
