TODD ANDERSON INSTRUCTIONAL BREAKING DOWN CHARLIE WOODS' GOLF SWING

INTRODUCTION- Charlie Woods has one of the most fundamentally sound golf swings you will see. And it is due to the foundation he has built in his pre-swing fundamentals. There are four key aspects to the pre-swing that I would encourage every parent to implement with their junior golfer, which is to develop a good grip, good posture, correct ball position and alignment. If you focus on these elements, you have the foundation to build a sound golf swing.

THE GRIP

The first thing a junior golfer should understand is that their hands should go on the club/grip the way they naturally hang. They should 'swing' in their left hand (right-handed golfer) from the side, putting the heel pad of the left hand on the top of the grip with the left thumb on the right center of the grip. The V formed between the left thumb and index finger should point slightly inside the right shoulder.
