Finding ‘the slot’ with your driver will help you find more fairways. Use this tip from Clay Ballard to become a much more powerful driver of the golf ball.
Comments (9)
I think Clay has a great understanding of the golf swing and imparts it in unique and easy to follow ways; I particularly liked this video and can’t wait to see the results.
But, why no answers to some great questions in the comments?
Clay - great stuff - TY. 4 index but constantly too steep. Working on this - great results but two frequent issues. 1. A dead pull. Not a hook. 2. Applying this to irons and fairway woods, hitting so many shots fat? Thoughts on how to avoid these two actions?
How to increase clubhead speed especially with driver
Clay-you indicated that the driver should be pointing to the RIGHT of the target line at release (P8). Is this recommendation the same for the irons? I frequently hear instructors say that you should finish low and LEFT with iron shots. Kurt
Rock and Roll Simple Tip to work on Thanks!
Nice explanation of the motorcycle move, and the slot. Thanks
Hey Clay: This is an awesome tip; your videos rock on TopSpeed Golf; glad I'm a member... best... Jerry R
Clay, I love the drill. Question: Not because Im older just genetics, I have never been flexible. My wrist bends back only 10 to 20 degrees. Been that way since I was 16. Does the drill change if you cant give the "full gas" in part 1 of the drill?
Cool cool tip!! I will give that a try for sure!! Thx !!
