Take the ‘slack’ out of your swing for more power
Almost every recreational golfer has a power leak in their swing. Unlike novices and novices, recreational players rarely increase their efficiency in swinging the golf club. But with some important tweaks, you can get a much-needed yard.
Another power leak is the lack of range in the backswing. Range is the distance between your torso and arms as you make your swing, and, generally, the stronger you are, the more power you can build.
However, when it comes to recreational athletes, they tend to have their arm structure collapse and become much smaller than they need to go back. This creates less force and leads to less power in the turn.
Luckily for you, there’s a good instinct you can use to remove this “laziness” from your swing. In a photo with GOLF Magazine a few years ago, Top 100 Instructor John Tillery used a piece of string attached to the bottom of the bowl to demonstrate proper range feel during the backswing.
“I will need to tighten this thing if I am going to turn it and load it,” he said. “There will be a little feeling that I’m pulling this thing out of the ground until it’s solid.”
In the pictures above, you can see the right (right) and wrong (left) way to do this. You should feel like you’re keeping the rope taut as you begin to pull back to start with proper strength and create range.
“I use the analogy of a boat pulling an inner tube,” Tillery said. “If the string gets loose, you’re going to have trouble putting a lot of torque on it. It’s hard for me to have any load on the backswing and tighten my muscles when I pull back and play catch behind it.”
If you want to get more range (and power) in your swing, give this shot a shot. It will teach you the proper feel for taking up the slack in your swing and help produce a more efficient swing.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Power Shift Board How Often Should I Use the Power Change Board in My Training? For best results, we recommend incorporating the Power Shift Board into your regular training routine. Using it for a few minutes each day or as part of your pre-cycle warm-up can greatly improve your swing mechanics and overall performance. When Should I Change My Weight in My Golf Swing? Shift your weight slightly onto the back foot as you swing back, then shift it to the front foot with the swing and impact. Most of the weight should be on the front foot in the follow through, and the back foot on the toe. Timing and fluency are essential. Where Should My Weight Be When I Hit My Driver? When you hit the driver, your weight should start to be evenly distributed or slightly favor your back foot. During the backswing, shift a moderate amount of weight to your back foot. On the descent, shift your weight forward, making sure that when you touch down, most of your weight is on your front foot. This promotes a strong, high angle of attack, which is ideal for driving.
