Increasing lag in the golf swing and getting rid of the dreaded casting motion is one of the most sought after pieces of golf instruction advice there is and I show you EXACTLY HOW TO GET MORE LAG like in the image below.

Many people are surprised to hear me say that lag is important for accuracy, but it is and here’s a quick explanation why. When you have lag coming into impact as you can see in the screen capture, I don’t have to do anything to square the clubface with my hands.

This is, of course, assuming I have the proper grip. If I release the club early at this point, the clubface is going to be shutting through impact and I will pull the ball. But, by not casting and not doing anything with my arms or hands (watch the passive arms video) the clubface will quietly come into impact square with no conscious interference on my part.
