This week, Golfweek’s fitness guru and long driver Averee Dovsek and Kent St. Charles from Lab 18 demonstrate how creating lag does not come from throwing the club over the top, but the angle of the club shaft and lead arm can create it.

Try this simple move to help deliver the club and create that sought after lag for longer and more consistent shots.
