It is the basic sense of togetherness that all beginners feel when they learn to play golf. As the right hip turns back and through it will do so with more power than the stomach, and as your hands connect to your right-hip , you will feel a sense of greater leverage in your swing. You will actually feel your hands lagging behind your body motion. This is a good feeling if you want to release more power. As with the pivot drill, most golfers are not conditioned to feel this connected and lagging sensation.
Most golfers try to make their hands go faster in order to generate more clubhead speed.
However the secret to greater clubhead speed is to have a lagging sensation through your hands, not a speedy one. Below I show a conditioning exercise that will help you feel the sensation of having your right arm married, or connected, to your right-side. If you practice this exercise on a regular basis you will condition your body to perform this connection with ease. Remember, much of playing good golf is conditioning. I want to acquire the feeling that my right hip and hands are working together.
