1. LEAD WITH YOUR LOWER BODY

Once you reach the top, push off your right foot to shift your left hip closer to the target. This should happen before you think about moving your arms. The goal is to get your belt buckle ahead of the ball before impact. It’s a subtle move, but an important one.

2. MAKE A PALM-DOWN STRIKE

This one’s very important: As you reach the delivery zone, make sure that your right palm is facing the ground. This will ensure the proper downward strike. It will also square the face. If your palm faces the target or—gulp—points skyward, you’ll scoop the ball off the turf instead of compressing it.
