The golf swing is a circle. The idea is to hit the ball at the apex of the circle or arch. The club then continues around in the circle. Only for a very short distance. A few inches is the club moving down the target line. But that is so small. If you try to swing down the line you get in the way of the natural forces that create acceleration.There are no straight lines in a circle.

Swing Down the Target Line

Get in a set up position holding on to bands or a pulley system. The goal is to pull the pulleys or bands and create more space with your hips. On the backswing side you push away from the pulley. Your force goes into he heel of your trail foot and on the inside. Then you go back to set up or impact then around on the follow through side. Always pushing away from the force on the bands or the cables. This is how you offset the inward force that the club puts on your when you swing. 

PULLEY DRILL

The M3 Coaching Series by Mike Malaska delves into the role of the pelvis and hip sockets in creating a stable, efficient golf swing. This segment emphasizes how understanding and controlling the movement of these critical areas allows golfers to maintain balance, generate power, and improve overall swing consistency.
A key takeaway is the importance of tilting and rotating the pelvis correctly during the swing. Mike explains how the alignment of the hips and pelvis affects the body's connection to the ground and its ability to produce controlled, powerful movements. By visualizing proper hip and pelvis motion and practicing targeted drills, golfers can reinforce correct patterns that translate into better performance.
The series introduces simple, effective exercises that golfers can practice anywhere. For example, using a chair as a guide helps players ensure their hips and knees maintain proper spacing during the swing. Additionally, golfers are encouraged to use mental imagery to internalize these movements, enabling efficient and focused practice without needing a driving range.
The M3 Coaching Series makes these complex mechanics accessible and repeatable, helping golfers build a more powerful and consistent swing while emphasizing the importance of body awareness and visualization.
