START STABLE
Take a wide stance, about shoulder width, and play the ball opposite your front heel.
CREATE THE COIL
Make a full shoulder turn going back, with your left shoulder turning all the way behind the ball at the top. Try to turn your hips no more than half as far as your shoulders.
GET THE ORDER RIGHT
Begin your downswing from the ground up: Shift your weight to your front foot, rotate your hips, then shoulders (above). Your arms and hands come through last, releasing the clubhead for full extension with your hands.
