Another very common swing issue for many golfers is a flying right elbow. This occurs when the right elbow makes more of a pull back behind the body motion, resulting in your right shoulder not rotating in the best possible way. This causes a few issues with the position achieved at the top of the back swing, as the club face will become open and also you will tend to see a steep backswing and downswing, making it hard to produce consistency with the swing and making it difficult to strike powerful, straight golf shots. In this golf tip video, Natalie Adams of Smash Factor golf coaching talks you through two very simple drills to achieve a better right shoulder rotation during your backswing and an improved position at the top.

In this video, Natalie Adams from Smash Factor golf coaching shows you exactly how to successfully play a shot over a bunker, to a tight pin on the green, that stops quickly and close to the flag. This is a vital shot to know how to play for any golfer and playing it well can take shots off your score.
