On the backswing, be sure to stay behind the ball while sweeping the club back to assure a wide swing arc.   Raise your chin to allow a full shoulder turn and bring the club back as far as you comfortably can.   Start the downswing by turning your hips  and knees  towards the  target first.   Pull the club down with your lead arm.   Concentrate on a full follow-through.
