Struggling with your takeaway? In this golf lesson, I’ll show you how to take the club away perfectly by focusing on four key elements: keeping the hands low to allow the wrists to hinge up naturally, creating leverage at the set position, maintaining proper width for a bigger backswing, and staying connected to your body for consistency.

The takeaway sets the tone for your entire golf swing—get it wrong, and you’ll fight with timing, consistency, and ball striking. By mastering these simple fundamentals, you’ll be able to:
✅ Create effortless power with better leverage
✅ Stay connected for a more consistent swing plane
✅ Improve ball striking and accuracy
✅ Build a repeatable golf swing

If you’ve ever wondered how the pros make their swings look so smooth, it all starts with the perfect takeaway. Watch this video to learn the key checkpoints and drills you can use to nail your takeaway every single time.

    Once you leverage, do you de-leverage to hit the ball? Or is the leverage maintained at the impact?

    I’m kind of doing the opposite where in the takeaway the clubhead is too far outside my hands, how would I fix that?

    Thanks for bringing this tip back to the surface. I recall it being one that lead me to maintaining width in the past which in turn lead to me feeling a more effortless and powerful swing. Recently my thoughts had been focused on pushing the left shoulder down the toe line while moving some part of my right side (hip, abs, obliques, lats) directly behind me over my heel (after the one inch hip bump toward the target). Some days its lead to great (contact &) results, but other days something else has been off. Pushing the beach ball under the water may be a good alternative thought for when the left shoulder + right side back takeaway takes a dive.

    So… Can you say that you could hinge your wrists and swing your arms during the backswing such that the handle is always pointed at the ball?

    Definitely one of the best coaches who provides Youtube coaching tips. So easy to follow and replicate.

    Love your "keep back to the target and drop the hands" idea. This has transformed my game. Hitting longer and straighterwith driver, straighter and crispier irons. My handicap is coming down and down and it's only going to keep going that way.

    Hi Adam, is the push down feeling just with the lead arm or with both arms? Is the takeaway still led with the lead shoulder to initiate the swing? Thanks for all you teach!

    How much pushing is too much? I always feel like I create too much tension when pushing.
