Stop Rushing Your Downswing



In this tip, I want you to stop rushing your downswing. So many people I see swing so fast they literally have no time to even use their body to hit the ball.

I say this because your arms move way faster than your body in life. So if your body moves slow, and you’re trying to use it to hit your shots, you need to stop rushing your downswing. Instead, wait for the body to start first and the arms to follow.

This is what pros are doing. Pros hit the ball with the body leading arms following. This is all pros that do this. So if they are doing this, you need to do it too. Watch this tip then try what I am suggesting. This will help you stop rushing your downswing which will give you time to start your body first. Do that and you are now doing what pros are doing. This means you will hit the ball longer and straighter than ever.

  1. Brilliant concept and video. So difficult retraining muscles however combining this lesson with the 'get rid of your chicken wing' lesson will be key. Thanks for superb instruction!

  2. Such a simple yet fundamentally important tip that helps the basics. Appreciate that Paul

  3. Thanks Paul that's a great tip counting like that for a good rhythm. Just about every weekend golfer I see, needs to do this, including me. I appreciate you posting this

  4. My friends tell me I pause at the top. To me it feels like I hold my shoulders back while I fire my hips and then the upper body does it’s thing.

  5. It's hard to get synced up sometimes. If your body is too far ahead, you can't get around and I will push hard right. Timing is key

  6. Hi Paul… Been following you for a couple of years now… You always give great tips in a way an average golfers can understand… I feel sometimes I rush my shots. I can't seem to break the pattern of hitting amazing shots on the driving range and been able to do the same thing on the course… I seem to think it's a common thing for us average golfers.
    Is there a way to break this pattern? Maybe a possible video for you to do in the future.

  7. I need to keep reminding myself to slow down. 1–2–3. Thanks Paul

  8. Nice tip Paul. Timing is always an issue for me so I’m happy to get any tips that can help make it better

  9. I think it was Tom Watson said your arms are ONLY ALONG FOR THE RIDE they should never be the primary part of the swing!

  10. I seemed to execute this reasonably well the other day, & hit some great, almost effortless shots.
