Let’s Fix your Chicken Wing!

Getting rid of your 'chicken wing' will give you more power and accuracy. Aimee Cho shows how to swing using your body more than your arms.

The ‘chicken wing’ is a common swing fault for golfers. Perhaps someone has told you that you have a ‘chicken wing’ and wondered what that meant, or maybe you know what it is but can’t seem to get rid of it.

The ‘chicken wing’ is the position of your front arm (left arm for a right-handed player) specifically in your follow-through. It’s called a chicken wing because your arm bends like a chicken wing. Typically, a chicken wing means that your elbow starts to bend and lift up while your wrist also bends. Neither of those things are helpful if you want to hit a golf ball well.
