WORK ON SIDE BEND FOR BETTER CONTACT “If you watch Lucas’ pre-shot routine, you’ll see his last move is to kick his left hip up,” Baile says. “This creates more side bend and makes it easier to complete his backswing turn. “This pelvic tilt will help you, too. Imagine you’re riding a surfboard. If you’re a righty, you want to tilt your pelvis to the left and shift your upper body to the right so that your pressure is on the front end of the board but your mass favours the trail end. If you put your mass where your pressure is, the board is going to flip. Stabilise your setup, and you’ll improve your ball-striking.”
