Having a disciplined finish
helps you commit to the shot
In my coaching I always stress the importance of a good follow-through
position; releasing and swinging the clubhead all the way to the
finish is a good indication that you have made a positive and
committed move through the ball, which is essential for solid
striking. There is, however, one additional comment I would make:
incorporating a ‘recoil’ that sees the arms and the
club fall back to the position you see here can be an equally
effective sign that you have completed your swing in balance and
with good speed. Look around on the tour and you will see a number
of players who prefer to finish this way, particularly players
who swing with a brisk tempo – Nick Price being a very good
example. Work on this type of finish on the practice tee and you
will find it is habit forming, and that in itself can be a useful
defence under pressure.
