Keep the clubhead from overtaking the handle

A fault-and-fix: poorer players swing the club too far inside too quickly, so the clubhead takes over the handle and the club loses balance. From there it gets thrown from the top for a slice, or it drops and gets stuck inside for blocks and flips. Better players instead keep pressure on the shaft.
