One of the least understood elements of the swing is the position of the bottom hand in the backswing.
If you’re right-handed, the right hand’s proper positioning is a major key to hitting longer, straighter shots. Swing a club halfway back, and open your right hand on the grip. Your palm should be at a 45-degree angle to the ground, somewhat facing the sky.
This forces your right elbow down, putting it in a powerful, hinged position. Assuming you have a neutral right-hand grip at address (the V formed by your forefinger and thumb pointing to your right shoulder), the 45-degree palm angle also means the clubface has stayed square to the swing path.
From there, your chances of producing power and accuracy are goo
