Cushion drill to feel the elbow-in downswing
The coach demonstrates a drill using a cushion held against a wall to feel the start of the downswing. Grab a cushion on the side, swing back to the top counting one-two, then swing down and hit the wall while feeling the right hand move down and the elbow move in close together. The aim is to feel the elbow, a move he says is seen in many of the world's best ball strikers.
