Great lesson and drill. I've been crushing the drive with this one! I know there is a lot to think about, but this lesson alone really helped me isolate my energy into one powerful and fast swing. THANK YOU!

Outstanding !!! BEST TIP plus DRILL, and I've seen them all, that made a marked difference in my driving performance. I'm not a feeble 76 years old and I am pounding the ball. Thanks Clay (and all the Golf Pass instructors.
