What is Hand Sway?
Hand Sway identifies excessive lateral movement of the head, leading to inconsistencies.
Definition: Lateral movement of your hands, specifically the mid point of your grip, is set to 0 at address. Compared to address, the number is negative when your hands move farther away from the target and positive when your hands slide closer to the target.
