One of the biggest challenges in perfecting your golf swing is that improvement often requires you to move your body in ways that feel unnatural or awkward. That’s why many instructors rely on real-life comparisons—connecting swing positions and movements to actions you already know—so you’ll be able to learn them more easily.
A great example of this is a simple tip to fix it Cameron McCormickor GOLF Top 100 Teachersrecently shared on Instagram. In the clip below, he explains how a common task that many of us do every day can help turn your lot into a draw. Let’s break it down.

Squeeze the towel to cover your face
As McCormick demonstrates in the clip, the simple act of squeezing a wet towel is an effective drill for learning how to close your clubface during transition — which is essential for struggling players who struggle with a slice.
The feel works because it encourages your lead hand to rotate naturally. Your knuckles and palms move in a way that mirrors the hand action needed to square the face of the arm at impact.
“Squeezing the water out of this wet towel at the transition, turning the knots, and turning the palm will help you close that transition face and turn that slice into straight balls or drawings,” says McCormick.
Instead of leaving the face open – which sends the ball to the right – with a little practice, you can learn to adjust your clubface.
Once you’ve established the swing with the towel, McCormick says to try adding to your club. As you swing the club back, stop at the top of your swing. Before moving to the squat, do the same squeezing movement. You should feel the clubface rotate slightly and with a few repetitions, your shots should start to straighten.
