The wonderful Ernie Els' swing can be seen below :



To succeed in doing his swing:

ON THE BACKSWING

1-Do a forwards small movement of the left wrist

2-Throw laterally the left arm while turning the left wrist around the arm axis (pronation of 1/8 of a turn) .The consequence of this action is the bust rotation. Pay attention to the left arm on the swing plane.

3-Arm "vertically" the left wrist.

IMPORTANT: move the 2 knees on the backswing because this action facilitates the low body movement on the downswing.

The cupped left wrist like Ben Hogan.

Here is a video of Ernie Els seen in profile.It shows the two backswing planes and the downswing plane pointed out by the P letter.Go down the club on the P plan is very important because it increases the regularity.
