Katie Dahl breaks down the three-quarter swing. Learn how to take one extra club and use a one-piece takeaway and full body rotation to improve your ball striking and get closer to the pin.
Your Action Plan
What: Your goal is to learn and master the three-quarter swing to gain more accuracy and control in your iron play.
Why: The three-quarter swing provides more consistent contact and control than a full swing, leading to better results and improved accuracy on the course.
How:
Select the Right Club: Take one extra club than you would normally use for a specific distance.
One-Piece Takeaway: Start your swing by having your chest, arms, and club all turn back together.
Rotate with Your Body: Use a full rotation of your body back and through to power the swing.
Finish with a Pose: Finish your swing with a balanced pose, with your belt buckle pointing toward the target.
We're not part of a big media company. My husband Richard and I started Women's Golf in 2014 because I couldn't find online golf lessons that were truly designed for women golfers. I wanted to create the kind of place I wished had existed, a welcoming, ad-free home where women could learn from the world's best instructors.
I look after our members, our instructors and the lessons we share, while Richard takes care of the technology behind the scenes that keeps Women's Golf running.
