Brian Hughes, Program Director and PGA Master Professional at Keiser University’s College of Golf, addresses the common golf myth of “keeping your head down” and why it can harm your game. Brian explains that locking your head in place restricts movement, limits shoulder rotation during the backswing, and hampers body rotation through the swing. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of keeping your chin up to allow for better posture and greater freedom of motion, resulting in more energy and a smoother swing.
For golfers seeking to maintain focus on the ball, Brian suggests keeping your eyes down rather than your head, looking over the tip of your nose. This approach maintains focus without restricting your body’s natural movement, ultimately leading to better swings and improved performance on the course.
