Amazing tip man, great job.......I have one question for you, How do you determine the right angle of approach at your set up position, in otherwords how do your ever really know if your too upright or too far down? thanks a million.
@MedicAlv1 hi, sorry for the late reply, it varies depending on body type and build, but for most players lower is better than higher, lower promotes a nice hinge in the wrists and higher stifles it. average for most good players would be shaft pointed at your belt buckle---main key is that your arms and shoulders are really soft and relaxed at address, do that and the shaft should be in a good position. cheers
@Kanito8888 Hi, sorry bout the late reply....I meant that a ball placed TOO far forward ensures an outside-in path----you should play on the course w/ a normal stance, square or slightly open (some great ball-strikers like Tom Lehman and Fred Couples use a very open stance w the feet) and a ball position near the left heel or instep should be fine.....you can experiment w the ball back more in your stance, tho, some tour players do this w great success. All the Best.
Finally a usefull drill that has actually cured my slice and has me hitting a straight ball or even a slight fade nearly 90% of the time. Thank you so much for this. Only complaint would be that I want more! Please oh please give me more instruction/drills for improving my golf game! Every little bit helps!
I have tried many methods for fixing my slice: read articles, books, watched countless videos and even took a lesson. This is the ONLY drill that has proven to work. After a few weeks with this drill I am now hitting the ball straight or with a slight draw almost 80% of the time. Thanks for this!! Only complaint would be I want more!!!! Please oh please give me more instruction/drills for improving my golf game!
@MegaSebas1212 Hi, great to hear....sorry I haven't posted any other videos yet, had a hard time uploading for some reason---new technology and an old pro I guess! I will try to get some more going, God Willing, in the near future. Cheers.
so once you are used to this swing path, you place your feet back to normal position?
i have the slice problem with my driver only... i thought you are supposed to place the ball forward near your left heel. so if you say a ball placed forward almost ensures outside-in path, then should i play the driver in the middle of my stance? thanks!
This works amazingly well, but what is it teaching me? Do I use this drill in a game? How will it help me eliminate a slice when using my normal swing with a driver?
@RTOHIO Hi, it's teaching your body to get in the proper 'delivery' position.....hips open, shoulders square, right elbow and wrist still hinged/loaded and close to the body.....as you get good with the drill w the irons you can start doing it w the woods too and it will become natural on the course as well. Have fun!
Yes, a common problem...almost always better to have the ball too far back than too far forward! Forward almost ensures outside-in path by the time the ball gets there. Good Luck!
Hi, glad u like it. It usually takes a while to be able to progress from short irons to mid to long to woods. Practice w/ the irons for a while and the driver will get easier to use with the drill. Have fun!
Great drill, Thanks! Ledbetter has a similar drill, but instead you align your feet 45 deg to the RIGHT; this one works much better for me. My slice is so bad that this just got me hitting it straight. are you doing anything special with the takeaway (far to the outside?)? How do I work this into my regular swing?
This is really a great drill. After hitting about five balls, my swing plane felt more natural and I began hitting a very soft draw with my irons. My ball striking improved after only one hour on the range.
Absolutely super tip. This guy is the real deal and can get your game going. I had the lesson today and went out on the course to use it. My game is work in progress but after this lesson today I am confident, through the results, that I am heading in the right direction!
