Daily Video Tips



















































Excellent drill
Wow, such a simple idea that anyone can incorporate into their practice routine. I will definitely try this next time on the range.
Hi Carolin,
I noticed when you (and other Pros) hit your driver, the tee pops up from the ground spinning. Mine never does that, and I was wondering if that was indicative of me not hitting the driver on the upswing (or any other possible issues)?
Thanks so much!
Eric, thanks so much for your question. I would say yes, this can be an indication of a negative angle of attack or in other words hitting DOWN on it too much instead of UP. Especially if it looks like the tee was pushed even further into the ground after you have hit. I would suggest keeping an eye on this particular scenario, but other wise, whether the tee launches higher or lower wound not really matter as launch as it does launch. I hope this helps!
Thanks Carolin, truly appreciated!
Why has my comment and question been deleted? You say at the end of the video that you will be happy to answer questions. Why do you not answer any questions? TY
Sorry about this. We are looking into it and will get your original question answered!
Or NOT
Do I use the K position setup for all clubs?
George, thanks so much for your question. The longer the club gets the more the "K" position will help you launch the ball correctly. With the short iron and wedges your ball position will be more middle to back of your stance so naturally you will look more "upright" from face on, however the trail shoulder and hip will still tend to be slightly lower than the lead joints. I hope this helps!
Thank You so much I cannot believe the height I've gotten with my hybrids with the reverse K
Good instructor and really simply tip. Simple is better. Thanks
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!
Thank you for 3 easy points to help with the driver. It is a challenging club for me, thank you for simplifying the basics. It will help
You are welcome! Stay patient and swing it easy, the distance and accuracy will come with good fundamentals like these! Keep up the good work!
Great fix to activate the neck. It works. Wichita
Thank you for the great instruction. I can't wait to try it tomorrow.
Very clear instructions - I will try this today at the driving range.
So glad to hear! Can't wait to hear how it goes.
