Build Better Footwork for Your Golf Swing

Better footwork starts with a slower swing. Mr. Short Game shares a simple short-shot drill to help you rotate through the ball and finish in balance.

Watch Mr. Short Game demonstrate the drill—then start small before building up to longer shots.

Three Keys to Practicing Better Footwork

1. Start Short and Narrow

Begin with short shots and a comfortably narrow stance. Keep the motion small while you get used to how your feet and body work together.

2. Slow Down and Rotate

Make a slow, controlled swing. Let your trail knee move toward your lead knee as your body turns through. Focus on rotation rather than swaying sideways.

3. Finish on Your Trail Toe

Let your trail heel rise as your chest turns toward the target. Finish with your weight supported on your lead side and your trail foot up on its toe.

If you can't do it slowly, don't rush to do it faster. Build the movement with short shots, then gradually add distance while keeping the same controlled turn.
