The takeaway is one of the most important parts of the golf swing. In many cases the first 3 feet of the back swing dictate the path the club head will travel through the impact zone. The most common error in the take away can stem from a closed stance in your setup, the club head gets “stuck” behind the player and there is no place to go but to cast over the top and slash across the ball creating the most common ball flight…A pull fade.
