Stay Connected for More Consistent Shots

      This drill can help you if you tend to over swing on the backswing or allow the elbows to separate either in the backswing or finish (chicken wing).   Secure a towel under your arms and keep it in place while you hit balls.  I recommend starting with a short iron and making half swings.  As you progress you can make full swings.  In general this will make your backswing feel more compact and help you rotate your torso better to the finish.  My mantra for this drill is “rotate and hinge the wrists, then rotate to target and re-hinge the wrists”.
