your weight go through with the
club, to the left leg. which braces
against the instructive push from the
right side OF your body and gives
you the leverage on the ball.
A splendid rule is-right elbow
lightly against the side In the
back swing; left elbow lightly
against the side in the forward
swing.
You can get this by putting a ball
in your right arm pit for the back
swing. and then in your left arm pit
during the down swing. Make the
swing without letting the bali fall
