On Par
Stay Home
By Marc Kawasoe, Program Director, The Golfing Lab
One of the greatest challenges we faced during the Circuit Breaker period, was how to stay active at
home. Without being able to get out on the golf course or go to a driving range, it could be tough
getting the motivation to practice and improve your game.
Here are a few drills that you can do in the comfort of your home. These indoor practice drills will come
in handy and it might just be the solution to make those lasting improvements! Have fun with it, stay safe,
and keep grinding!
Drill 1: Maintaining Connection aka Toilet Roll Drill
Swing Flaw:
Losing connection on the backswing resulting in
a weak impact position and minimal connection
through impact.
The Fix:

Top of the Backswing

Extension through
Impact
1. Place a full roll
of toilet paper
between your
forearms at
address.
2. Do a half swing and
keep the toilet roll
connected between
the forearms.
Simply work on half
swings for this drill.
3. To maintain
connection with
shaft-lean at
impact, your

squeeze against the
toilet roll.

maintain your width
