Club face
The club face is a very important part of the swing and gaining control over the club face is a very important element in the golf swing. The most important face to realize is that the position of your left hand on the golf club should mirror the club face at impact. The back of your left hand must point at your intended target and be rotating towards the ground. The left wrist at impact should be bowed, not bent. If you can get your left had to behave properly, you have given yourself a great chance at squaring the face of the club at impact. Here is a drill to help you feel that sensation.
1. Take your normal address position with your left hand only.
2. Grab your left forearm with your right arm.
3. Bring the club back, without moving your left arm. Wrist set only.
4. The club shaft should be parallel to the ground.
5. Slowly rotate your left thumb toward the ball. Make sure your left wrist is bowed.
6.
Slowly repeat this procedure as many time as you can. This will educate your hands on how to behave at impact. If you are able to learn this skill, your ball flight will dramatically improve and the quality of the contact will be much more solid. Good luck and good golfing!
