Eric, last part of instruction should be to have your weight slightly forward. GREAT video on setting up!

This works, just need to keep it in mind when you’re on the tee box.

What was the length and flex of your long drive club?

Thanks Blair, I tried it at the driving range and it helped me get more distance. Hopefully it will help on the course.

Thanks Blair, Beautiful tip!! I tried it and it definitely improved my drive. Lifting my left heel seems to promote a straighter drive in my case. Definitely giving me extra yardage. When you are warming up with the irons should I also be lifting my left heel? Thanks Barry

Would it correct that for this more shallow, along the ground, swing you are slightly further away from the ball in your address.
