 Pat Perez has seen positive swing results when he's focused on maintaining his spine angle. Glenn Monday: What part of your swing have you been focused on lately? Pat Perez: I’ve been working on my swing plane and I am seeing better ball flight. GM: What changes did you make? PP: I’ve gone from being too steep to trying to flatten it just a bit. By doing that, I'm better able to hit a draw. GM: What details do you work on that help get you on that plane? PP: Two things — I’ve worked a lot on maintaining my spine angle throughout the swing. Secondly, the position of my glove at the top of the backswing is important to me. GM: So you are putting your mind on the back of the glove hand, and you want to feel the same exact set position at the top of the backswing? PP: That’s it, exactly. GM: What tips do you like to give the amateurs that you play with? PP: Most amateurs would benefit from learning how to swing properly. This will result in hitting more shots on the sweet spot and therefore having better distance control. Also, practice a lot of lag putts. You’ll find in most cases you have to factor in more break than you think. Glenn Monday is an L.A.-based teaching professional and author of “Know Your Swing.” He can be reached at (310) 322-8924. |
