One fo the best swing thoughts that have worked for me regardless of how I am swinging over the years is “lights hands” at the top of your backswing.
Having “light hands” at the top of your backswing can help you do one very important thing right. By having your hands light at the top of your backswing, you will easily be able to start the downswing with your lower body instead of jerking it with the hands or the arms. You will probably have more clubhead speed too because your arms are not inhibited by your hands being too “tight”.
Being too “tight” with your hands is one of the worst things you can do in golf although that might be the right way to swing a baseball bat.
So next time, try this simple tip, feel as if your hands are barely holding the golf club at the top of your backswing. All the things I’ve been mentioning about swinging with your body, the hip slide/turn and starting the swing with the lower body, this simple tip will help you accomplish that.
