Rough - Type of grass, bordering fairways, that is higher and generally more coarse than the grass in the fairway.

The follow through is important, but not as important as the other parts of the swing. It should just be an extension of your swing.
The Follow Through
The first picture to the left shows a considerable amount of wrist cock early into the follow through. This is a classic sign of a golf swing in which the arms and body are at odds with one another.
The Follow Through
Some years ago when I was an oarsman I learned that the arms have not a great amount of strength. The real strength of the body is in the heavy muscles of the shoulders, back, and thighs.

Your next move is what will put my kids through college. You abandon the idea of feeling something new, because you need the instant gratification of seeing that the new approach is working. So you go back to thinking about the ball.

Shaft Through Forearms
The fourth line to look at is very important. I like to draw a line along the shaft of the putter. If the line runs directly through the forearms, that tells me that this person's putting set-up is using a one lever motion.

Go through each of the diagnostic questions and fill-in the answer. This will provide an initial record and it will identify the areas of grip, stance, alignment, swing path and clubface position that will need improvement.
Go through the list below and check off the things that you do rather well (you or your pro may wish to add to this list based on your swing).
30 through 39: 9
40 or higher: 10
For example, if a golfer has a course handicap of 8, shoots a score of 83, but that score includes a six on a par 3 (a triple bogey) then the posted score should be only 82.
Deep Rough :
The shot you play from a lie in the rough depends on your objective. If you need distance from the rough, move the ball back in your stance, close the clubface a bit and hit a punch shot.
Go through this short range of motion to start. Click on the picture to enlarge it. Use your "Back" button to return.
