Golfers learning a one plane swing, or a more rotational rather than upright golf swing, can begin finding themselves hitting shots off the toe as a common miss.
If you find yourself doing this, take heart — it probably means you’re doing a key component of the swing correctly.
Hitting shots off the toe, if all other things in the swing are proper, is due to the rotation of the body through the shot and the fact that the shoulders are more open at impact than they were at address.

This effectively increases the distance between the lead shoulder and the ball, and thus, the butt of the club is further away from the ball than it was at address.
You will find that all golfers have a slightly different way of dealing with this issue depending on how they have figured out what works best for them.
