Monthly Golf Tips by the Mel Sole Golf School.
The term "inside out" describes a golf swing with a clubhead path that approaches the golf ball from an inside path and moves through impact to the outside. This is an ideal clubhead path in most cases.
An inexpensive Teaching Aid.
I recently saw an infomercial on TV for a training device to help golfers work the club from the inside. The cost of this device was $80. Here is a teaching aid that will cost you absolutely nothing and do the same job! Take two golf club boxes and tape them together, overlapping the other by about 24 inches, as shown in picture #1 below.
Place the ball on the ground under the overhang at the very end of the top box.
Go to the top of your swing and hit the ball without hitting the box. By trying to get to the ball under the box, it will force you to keep the clubhead behind the hands on the downswing—an absolute must if you are to hit the ball from the "inside."
This "inside out" motion will allow the clubhead to move down the line much easier, guaranteeing a straighter shot.
Eliminate that No-No move!
Make sure you follow through completely with your hips all the way through to the target and your hands finishing high.
If you make an "over the top" swing with this teaching aid, you will knock the box over. Your hands will finish low around your body.
Work with this for an afternoon, and you will find the results quite amazing! Plus, you've saved $80! So say, "Thanks, Mel!"
