In this video, I'm going to go over what I mean when I say steady, centered head, what that should look like, things you need to avoid and most importantly, checkpoints you need to look for when you're practicing.

When I'm watching a video of someone swinging, I’ll draw a circle around the head. I do that all the time when I'm doing my online lessons or a swing analysis. When you make a backswing, you want your head to basically stay in that circle. If you don't stay in the circle, either, you will have gone too far to the right or too far to the left - we'll call that the lateral component - or you could go up through the circle or you could go down.

When most good players make a backswing, we won't see a dramatic change in height either up or down. I alsoeally don't want a lot of movement in terms of the right or left component.

If my head moves too far to the right during my backswingt, in all likelihood I stayed bent over or forward flexed too much or too long. This is usually correlated with a really flat shoulder turn.

The opposite of that would be for my head to go too far towards the target during the backswing. In that case, I would have too much extension.

All of this head movement stuff is related to contact issues. We’ve talked in previous videos about the fact there are really three movements involved during the backswing - left side bend, extension, and turn. The degree of which you do each one, how much you do it and when you do it is going to affect that centeredness of contact.

Now, my goal is not to face perfectly forward, and not move at all. People make the mistake of not allowing their neck to turn or rotate. I can still keep my head in the circle and have my head turn. If you allow your neck to rotate some that can help open up your chest and get rotation. If you're trying so hard to keep a centered head where your head and eyes face forward, that leads to a lack of overall body turn during the backswing. You'd be better off having a little turn or a little bit of movement there, so allow your head to rotate but not move laterally back and forth.
