Summary
Zach introduces the “hit and hold drill” — demonstrated by Mac O’Grady — to improve swing mechanics and impact position.
Key takeaways include:
• Transfer weight aggressively to forward foot
• Extend arms through hitting area
• Hips continue to rotate (while you apply brakes and hold)
Hi Zach,
I’ve done a few video lessons with you in the past, and they have been great.
This particular drill has been my go-to when my striking isn’t feeling crisp.
In fact, I’ve found this thought – of extending the arms out to the target – so valuable, that it is now my #1 swing thought at all times, not just as a fix drill.
I’d love to hear a few more detailed thoughts from you about WHY this drill/ swing thought produces such incredible results.
Many thanks for all of your excellent instruction!
