Don’t Sway

Swaying during the backswing can cause all sorts of shot problems from slicing and hooking to topping the ball. The habit of swaying is easy to get into because it tends to give a feeling of power during the swing, don't be fooled.
You can correct this swing flaw by keeping your weight distributed evenly on the insides of both feet. The backswing should coil around a central axis. During your backswing, make sure you keep ample weight on the inside of your right foot (right handers), which will prevent the swing from rotating off axis (swaying). Expect solid golf shots and a lowering of your handicap.
