Love this! I actually have a legit draw now. This drill helped my drive considerably! Thank you Natalie!

I tried this on the course yesterday and wow it was amazing. My only problem is that I am hitting it to the right. Not a slice a strong hit to the right. Any suggestions ??

Tee up your thoughts here...

Two Questions...
Do you reduce the "tilt" as you move down to a 3 or 5 wood off the fairway or light rough?
When you come in lower with the trail hand does that alter you grip or is it just to try and keep your shoulders properly aligned so as to not open them unconsciously?

Hi natalie, So with this set up also work with iron shots or not really?

I hit my driver very high and some times too high. I am 75 yrs old and my eye sight is not as good as it used to be. I do fade the ball quite often but I generally have itbunder control. My biggest problem is I only see about 50% of the drives I hit due to my sight. Many times I ask my playing partner where I hit the ball . They say oh it was a good drive right down the middle. I WOULD LIKE to hit the ball a little lower so I could follow it better. Generally when I hit a good drive it is between 190-210 yds but it is all carry no roll.

Hello, have you ever looked into the "kickpoint" on your shaft? Low kick points launch the highest while high kick points help you keep the flight low. Other obvious equipment adjustments you can make would be lowering the loft setting on your driver if you have one. Lastly, research does show certain golf ba11s launch higher than others! Do a little research on that, maybe you can find a better ba11 to help keep your flight lower, good luck!

@Scott Krisiak K.

I was wondering how kick points are measured are they just low medium and high or do they have a rating. What are the pros and cons of higher kick points. How do I check the kick point of my driver.

Bev, there are no regulations or rules on how shaft manufactures measure and rate kickpoint, so we are at the mercy of what they claim. I have definitely noticed though if I have a low kickpoint shaft and the I push the club head into the ground with the shaft vertical, it bends down by the head. Vice versa for high kickpoint, it bends up near the grip more. High kickpoints are usually for stiffer shaft, faster swingers- I can not hit high kickpoint shafts. Mids work for just about everyone and low kick points are for slower swingers or people that need a little help getting the ball into the air. Look at the markings on your shaft and google the type of shaft and specs, you will find the manufacturers claimed kick point. Good luck!
