Wide arc technique for golf backswings and ball distance
The author outlines a golf swing drill emphasizing a wide arc achieved by stretching the left side during the backswing. Key tips include keeping a straight left arm, avoiding head movement to the right, preventing clubface closure, and checking the clubface at the halfway point with the toe skyward.
