Using only one arm to swing the club can help you isolate certain movements and sensations that lead to a more fundamentally sound golf swing.
The trail arm drill is one of Will’s favorite training methods to help golfers feel how the club and body should move together in sync. By focusing on the trail arm only, you can learn to sense the correct forces at play during the swing, improve your sequencing, and develop a more natural swing path and plane.
This simple drill helps golfers understand how to create speed with less effort, deliver the club more consistently, and build solid impact fundamentals without overthinking mechanics.
