Golf Swing Gone “Wild”

Too many amateurs think that “strong arming” the ball is the way to more distance but nothing could be farther from the truth. During the backswing the shoulders should make a full turn and face away from the target. The hips also make the turn away from the target although not nearly as far as the shoulders. In order to achieve clubhead speed you need leverage which can only be created from a good body turn.
During the swing your arms should remain passive for much greater shot distance.
