A Water Bottle Can Help Keep You From Swinging Over the Top

Published on

There are plenty of ways to correct your golf swing with items you have right at home.
A water bottle, not only will keep you hydrated on the course, but help correct that dreaded over-the-top move in your swing.
Follow along with this simple drill from Abby Parsons, PGA, and your swing will be improved in no time.
  1. Grab a half-filled water bottle
  2. Hold the bottle in your trail hand and set up like you are over the ball
  3. Move your arm with the bottle to the top of your body like its your backswing
  4. Mimic your backswing while holding the water bottle
  5. Avoid spilling the water bottle to ensure proper technique
