If you want more pars and more distance, let's make sure that you are REALLY making a backswing. Many players struggle with fully turning their back to the target. A popular reason with my students, is that they lose their sense of space...it get's weird back there. So, instead, they end up not turning. Here's the fix and the whys so you can get back there without getting weird.

I never comment on RUclips videos but feel I must. As a veteran golfer with 22 years experience and playing off a 4 handicap, I must say, this video sums up my swing perfectly. I have seen 100s of coaches and spent 1000s of dollars on coaching and no one ever explained this as well as you did. I cant wait to test this out tomorrow on the range. Seriously well done on a simple, logical, and non-technical way of explaining this issue!
Simple, but powerful, lesson. Once I got over the fear of losing sight of the ball and that "out of control" feeling, I starting striking my irons so much more purely. I used to simply try to hit the ball, but now I'm swinging the club with the ball simply getting in its path. What a game-changer. Thank you!
I’ve been playing the game for over 35 years.
Seen all the the RUclips videos from other golf instructors. I myself know the golf swing very well and know what to do in a golf swing but am not always able to execute this correctly.
I strongly believe that you highlighted one of the most common problems that most all amateurs experience - and that is we don’t turn our chest enough on our take away. To turn one’s chest slightly and lift one’s arms for a take away WITHOUT A FULL chest turn is the lazy mans’ (or woman’s’) golf swing
I think you highlighted a problem here that is overlooked by most golf instructors.
Shows exactly what I need to work on more because I know, after I do a full chest turn on my take away, I can crush the ball.
Just find it difficult to do it repeatedly
Great tip! Thanks!
This video described exactly what I haven’t done right in the last 40 years of golf. It also describes what I need to do right in the next 40 years of golf
Christina, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
5years ago ..wow, your teaching is lots more chilled and
relaxed christina, same good golf principles though 😇
I have learned more from watching two videos by this lady than i have in hours of other videos. Wrists, and chest = powerful swing. Thank you.
Amazing, helpful tips, Christina! I'm trying to improve in my 70th year!😊
WOw...you just described my issue of swinging the golf club for the last 30 years!!! Amazing. Keeping the arms tight to the chest and using the chest to move the club when starting the back swing...best tip ever!!!!. I am just heading out the door to go the driving range and will be working on this. I know my body and chest move exactly as you show when you don't turn enough. Coming over the top..etc. I could never figure it out. Thank you soooo soo much!!!!! Nick from Canada!!!
Just got back from the range before the rain. Yes indeed ..this is a great tip. I am a pretty big guy ...6'1' 250 lbs. so I can generate power with my arms. But with your tip ...I realize that is not the engine of the golf swing for full shots. Without a full shoulder turn there is no power ...no centrifugal force. A full shoulder turn includes a full chest turn. You have succinctly and eloquently explained this vital detail which has been missing in my swing and which I only occasionally have stumbled upon with feel ..but then fall out of it because I never understood what I was doing when it "felt" right. Coming over the top and all the other mistakes you have described in this video was driving me bonkers...you did a good imitation of my swing!! It was driving me bonkers..so thanks again!!! Nick from Canada
Thank you for all your help from quite a few videos! Thanks!!!
Clear, detailed, easy to follow description of a "connected" backswing. Thanks!
One of your best vids for sure. Very easy to get lazy on this and not turn fully in the backswing and downswing. One of my key thoughts for sure. THANKS! I appreciate the reinforcement and good explanation. Cheers
Nice to see a good womam golfer explaining shots for a lot of swings.
Im 30 years old with a 40+ lb beer belly... and men just dont swing like this..
Where is the toe lift? Or at least left side foot tilt? Ive had hundreds of hours of lessons..
I used to be able to drive 280+ yards when i was 16 before i made bad life decisions because i had a john Daley swing.
I can see the club in my left eye before i hit the ball.... super nice to add 10+ yards to all my my shots... also makes half of them go off the fairway..
Thats the biggest problem ive seen from most golfers if they arent total beginners.
They aren't to agraid to pull back, they do it WAY too much.
You are becoming my favorite RUclips instructor. Thanks!
Hi Christina, 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😃.
I love your tuition / videos. So clear, concise and helpful. I’m already working on improving my swing standing in the living room ☺️.
Looking forward to getting my handicap down thanks to you. Love your accent too! 😎
Well said! It also gets the club head further away from the ball giving it more time to square up and stopping a tendency to slice.
Thank you so much for that profound information Christina!
Like James Bond below and like other comments i feel like i start to understand what this is all about.
Even I’ve already got to very good HCP its much easier to repeat and get consistency after your advices and explanation. I also like your friendly and easy style. Greetings from Germany 🥨🍺
I hadn't played for two years because of back problems. Three weeks ago I began playing again but my drives have been pretty bad. This was the exact video I needed! Thank you so much!!!!
Hi Christina. Staying connected to your side and making a good chest turn with your back to the target is all well and fine. However; then you say that you simply complete your back turn. Well if you wish to have a greater backswing from that point on do as John Daly does and handle your golf club grip as if you are doing an over head dumbbell triceps extension of your arms at the gym. This will allow both your arms to bend at the top and you will actually feel your club go pass parallel as John Daly does with his club. This action creates a larger arc in the golf swing and thus it generating more potential power in the downswings. I do this at 71 and am amazed at the results every single time. I believe it helps create a natural vertical drop of both arm into the magic slot for the maximum lag of the club just before impact. Hope you at least give it a try and feel the even converging power you will generate with swinging collectively with both arms. Thanks for reading. As usual love your videos. ruclips.net/video/XlAFMyH32ng/видео.html
What's up with all these lessons that are exactly what I need to see. I want more paws. Keep them coming. Cheers from Canada eh.
Great video for those of use who use arms without turn due to limited flexibility. Any tips for seniors to help with the turn?
Your lead shoulder stays "with the shot" not failing around to the left! No one did this better then Moe Norman! Not only is great power developed but very consistent accuracy! Hard to have a two miss with that swing IMO! Good advise!
I focus on moving the right hip straight back. Avoids the sway & early extension.
Thanks for nice and simple explanation.
Merci pour cette vidéo très claire. 👏👏
[memo]
모든 사람들이 full turn을 하려고 애쓴다 (나 또한 그렇다). 백스윙을 깊게 하면 ball을 볼 수 없게 된다. 그래서 어떤 관계성(relationship)을 잃게 되어 뒤쪽 공간이 좀 이상하게 느껴진다. 그래서 제대로 된 turn을 하지 않는다. 그 풀레이어들은 그들의 가슴이 볼을 향하게 하고 있다. 그래서 lead shoulder인 왼쪽어깨에서 공을 연결하는 line을 그어보면 lead shoulder가 별로 많이 움직이지(이동하지) 않았다는 것을 알게 된다. 그들은 팔을 움직였기 때문에 마술을 부렸다고 생각하지만 실제로는 강력한 백스윙을 만들지 못했다.
* 특히 Driver의 경우, 우리는 가슴이 아교로 붙인듯이 타겟반대방향을 향하고 있어야 한다. Takeaway를 할 때, 내 가슴이 채를 태워다줘야(drive) 한다.
Takeaway라는 것은 내 가슴이 돌면서 실어다 줘야 하는 것이다. 그래야만 Powerful Backswing을 만들 수 있다. 파워풀 스윙이란 것은 자신의 등이 완전히 Target 방향을 향하는 스윙이어야 함은 물론이고, 클럽헤드가 가속(accelarate) 할 수 있는 시간을 갖도록 최선의 기회를 주는 스윙이어야 한다. 왜냐하면 우리가 가슴을 turn 하지 않으면 우리의 가슴이 볼 위에 있기 때문이다 - 이 경우에 downswing을 시작하면 우리몸은 이미 볼 앞쪽에 가 있으면서 볼 앞쪽에서 채를 던져낸다 - 이 경우에는 Driver를 가속할 시간이 없다 (드라이버는 가장 긴 클럽이기 때문에 우리는 이것을 가속할 시간이 필요함에도 불구하고)
* 우리가 큰(big) backswing을 필요로 하는 이유는 클럽을 가속할 시간이 필요하기 때문이다.
내가 말하는 것은 볼과 떨어지라는 것이 아니라, 클럽을 뒤로 보낼 때 가슴도 turn 하라는 것이다. 오른쪽 엉덩이에 싣는(loading) 것과 같은 느낌을 가져야 한다.
백스윙을 할 때, 이 오른쪽 엉덩이(hip)가 나 자신의 안정판(stabilizer)이다. 충분한 turn을 했을 때에는 왼쪽 어깨가 뒷발(back foot) 즉, 오른발 위에 오게 된다. 왼쪽어깨가 오른발 위로 움직였다면 그것은 충분한 turn 이 이루어졌다는 뜻이 된다.
왼쪽 어깨를 오른발 위에 오도록 움직일 때에는 자신의 가슴(chest)도 함께 따라가게 해야 한다.
* 백스윙 때 가슴과 팔이 서로 연결된 상태로 가슴이 팔을 lead 해야 하는 것이 정말로 중요하다. (가슴이 볼에 머물러 있지 않게 한다)
- 모든 것이 함께 움직여서, 자신의 등이 타겟을 가리키며, 다운스윙 과정에서 클럽을 가속할 시간을 갖게 해줘야 한다.
Full turn을 만들어서 가속할 시간을 가질 수 있게 해야 한다.
- 테이크 어웨이 할 때, 가슴도 함께 돌아서 가슴이 오른발 위에 있도록 할 것 - 이것이 풀 스윙을 했다는 indicator 임.
- 백스윙 top 으로 가면서 오른쪽 엉덩이 뒤쪽에 싣는다는 생각으로 앉는 느낌을 갖게 되는데.. 이렇게 앉는 자세에서 가슴은 타겟방향과 완전히 반대방향이다.
- lead shoulder인 왼쪽어깨가 오른발 위에 오도록 해야 한다. 리드 쇼울더인 왼쪽어깨를 왼발 위로 옮기지 않는다.
- 다운스윙으로 전환하여 앞쪽으로 움직이기 시작하는 그 순간에 클럽이 아주 steep 해지는 것을 볼 수 있다.
- 볼 앞쪽으로 나아가는 순간 거리를 내는 것은 불가하게 된다. 머리가 볼과 너무 많이 떨어지면 안 된다.
* 백스윙 때 머리가 너무 많이 볼과 떨어지는 것(off)은 안 좋다. 조금만 떨어지는 것은 괜찮다. 많이 떨어지면 문제가 된다.
- 가슴은 제자리에서 회전하게 하고, 머리는 가운데에 있게 할 것
- 머리와 가슴이 볼 뒤에 위치해야만 클럽을 launch 할 수 있다. 하지만 가슴과 머리가 볼과 떨어져서 너무 뒤로 가면 안 된다.
- 단지 제자리에서 돌고, 뒤쪽으로 돌면서 실어야 한다. 그렇게 되면 가슴은 타겟을 등지고 왼쪽어깨는 오른발 위로 가게 된다.
* 더 많은 Power를 원하면, 백스윙 때 가슴을 돌려야 한다 !!
Thanks Christina. I will need to do this turn to get more distance!
Thank you, last week I struck the ball better than ever and it was simple as not a full body (chest) turn. Amazing how everything is about the fundamentals.
I really think you are a great teacher. Thank you!
Nice way of showing how it should be done. Easy for the average golfer to understand...
Thanks for keeping it simple, I'm just burned out on all the gimmicks.
Best instructor on the NET. Thanks
Wow how great was this! Where did she go? I havent seen her on any videos in a while?
Good tip Christina
Thanks you nailed it for me
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Well explained. You're very easy to follow. I wish you had a school or did site lessons. Videos are great but nothing beats hands on training and instant feedback. Thanks for your videos though. They're excellent.
Very helpful and simple! Thanks
On my way to the driving range to give this a try. I see myself in the static lead shoulder demonstration. Going to work on turning with the chest and giving it tiiiime. :-)
excellent uncomplicated instruction Christina. thanks. Robbie from Winchester England
Such great coaching! Thanks again!
Thanks from the Netherlands,
You are great and Nice to look
ad you. Xxx
You provide outstanding instruction. Thank you.
How about right elbow? Does it separate from right hip or tucked in?
Dear Christina, could you tell us after the backswing how to make a good downswing and explain th transition. It is the most difficult part of the swing and we did not get good videos for it. Thank you in advance
Love your tips
Thank you that was really helpful.
Great video great swing thoughts great explanation ❤️❤️❤️🏌️🏌️🏌️
Very good institutional video. Good stuff
voice is adorable
One of the best tips yet!
Right pocket back for proper upper torso turn. This is key to a proper backswing.
Where do you teach and how could one get a lesson or series of lessons?
Great video is that due to cancer my neck flexibility is poor:( I lose sight of the ball with my right eye. I do acupuncture, stretching and PT they helps but I still have a limited backswing. Any ideas? My bad tee shot is a pull hook🦆. When I start fading the ball I know I’ll have a good day of the tee
Thanks for the info😁
Great advice again
so lovely and powerful.
Thank You great Tip🇮🇪 🇮🇪👍.
Love The Videos.
So true I do tend to be so into getting the club into position that the chest stays behind
I'm pretty sure she works out. ✌️
Great stuff!
Hi Cristina, a huge Thank You from Paris!!
Your videos are so clear and helpfull..
Bye, Christine
By doing that, i end up taking club from inside so shoulder is turned or swaying in backswing. How to avoid this?
U r the best
I can only drive golf ball 200 yards what the heck is going on? I hope this tip helps me.....ty Christina
Darren - Thanks for watching and please subscribe!
Checkout these videos for LOTS more effortless distance. The focus should be your glutes during the downswing (not hips or arms or trying to make a mammoth backswing):

@@MorePars Thanks Christina for the reply awesome! I will try to strengthen my glutes. I know they are tight as a drum lol I will check out the other videos. Thanks again. Merry Christmas!
christina ricci
what game is this? it can't be golf you make it look to easy!
That’s part of what I do. I over cooked the staying over the ball idea.
Since I started watching your videos I've become a better golfer I haven't broke a hundred in 3 Rounds until today thank you so much you are so much more looser than the rest of the teachers on RUclips love your sense of humor thanks again!
More like a feeling of your lead shoulder over your back foot? You look very fit by the way.

Is it just me or is this still a short backswing ?
probably the most common reason people don't have powerful swings...lifting the club and not turning....I'm Guilty!
Beautiful athletic body.
I live in Los Angeles. Where are these fucking deserted courses/ranges where these YT teachers shoot their videos?? Every public course in LA is infested with humanity.
Fantastic videos, thank you for these.
