Stacked Backswing
Stacked Backswing
A simple visual for a proper wedge backswing
Place two yardage sticks in the ground that are 1 inch apart. Practice making backswings where your upper body moves from the yardage stick furthest away from the target, to the one closer to the target. This feeling, combined with starting a little more ahead of the golf ball will make some of you feel like you are very much on top of the golf ball. This is a critical key for making consistent, solid contact with distance wedges.
