Improving Your Golf Swing: Eliminating the ‘Chicken Wing’ Movement

Delivering the club head through impact straight and efficiently during the golf swing can be challenging when your arms are not working in harmony with the rest of your body. This can result in what is commonly known as a ‘chicken wing’ in the golf swing, where the arms bend awkwardly and disrupt the natural flow of the swing.

This week, Golfweek’s fitness expert and long drive competitor Averee Dovsek shares a tip to help golfers eliminate the dreaded chicken wing from their swings. By addressing this issue, golfers can avoid flipping the club through impact and achieve more consistent results.

The presence of a chicken wing in the golf swing can lead to a variety of issues, such as topping the ball or releasing the club too early or too late. By working on proper arm alignment and coordination, golfers can achieve a more solid impact position and improve their overall ball-striking ability.
