Golf Tip One-Plane Swing Kata 3
Your Elbow Leads
These Kata will deal primarily with your right elbow, right forearm and left arm. In later Kata we will add more body movement, but for now master this Kata, as it will form the basis of your One Plane swing. (Note: this can also be done almost anywhere – at your desk, while watching TV, while waiting to hit your shot. Use your imagination.)
Stand in your basic set-up position. We will go into detail on proper setup in a later blog. Do each movement at least nine times, but you are free to do more. Remember, you want this to become a rote activity, so do them often.
Elbow Up and BackWith your right arm bent at about 90 degrees, raise your right elbow up and slightly back. Do it slowly. The movement is almost as if you were striking someone behind you with your elbow. Keep repeating. You might want to coordinate your breathing with your movements – inhale as you move your elbow up and back.
