Zach Johnson = Consistent

Swing more like Zach Johnson to draw the ball and hit more consistent shots.
Zach Johnson is known as being a very accurate player that can control his golf ball.
He is also one of the best drawers of the golf ball on the PGA Tour.
There are a few keys in his swing that make this possible:
#1 –  He keeps his arms straight on his through swing. Which helps keep the path of the swing going down and out more.
#2 –  He has no rolling in his hands or forearms. This allows for the club to stay square to the arc of the swing so the start line of the balls is very consistent.
#3 – The sliding and extending of the hips and spine allow the body to keep turning which helps slow down the clubface rotation through the ball.
Use the punch shot drill for practice to learn to swing more like Zach.
Set up to the ball, favor your weight forward to help with hitting the ground in the same place, make half swings and keep your arms straight with a short follow through.

    Excuse me, but in my opinion he has rolling, less though.

    human can’t swing more than half without arm rolling
    Machine can do though
