Trace your swing circle to keep arms same length

A no-club demo helps visualize the swing arc: drop the club, hold your arm straight out in front of you, and trace a circle - "jumping jacks without jumping." That circle represents the path the club takes from the ball. Keep your arms the same length throughout the swing and don't shift, and the club returns to the same spot every time; aim for a true circle, not an ellipse.
