takeaway fanning
The takeaway sets the tone for everything that follows in
the golf swing, and a mistake made here can set off a chain
of errors from which it is hard to recover. A common take-
away error called "fanning" occurs when your trail hand and
forearm roll, causing the club face to open at the top of
the backswing. In an attempt to square the club face at
impact, a recovery motion is the order of the day, but it's
hard to time it correctly. If you over-recover, you'll close
the club face, resulting in a pull hook. And if you under-
recover, the club face remains "open" at impact (looking to
the right of the target), resulting in a weak slice.
