Your hand path has a big influence on the path your club takes during the golf swing, even though the paths of the two are different. Of course your body movement is linked to all this, however this video is just to show you how your hands should move and some checkpoints along the way to ensure your hand path is correct.
The faster you are able to have your hands move on a smooth path to the top of the swing, the easier it will be for you to control your swing path. Take a video of yourself from the ‘down the line’ position I am in with this video and check your hand path.
Having your hands on the correct path is going to improve every shot from pitching to driving.
