“I’m 25 years old and currently playing mini tour events in Florida. I’m seeking your help because I’ve learned that my ball striking really needs to improve to compete at the next level.” – Here we have a classic case of what happens when the upper right arm gets left “up and back”: it’s not pretty.

This week’s Pro Tip video shows Ben Hogan demonstrating the correct motion of the right arm.
