Golf: Feet Together

What a fantastic tool. I 've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...
Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

  • To encourage the pupil to develop a feel for controlled rhythm with good balance.

    Encourage the pupil to set up ready to hit the ball with the feet together rather than apart at shoulder width (1) apart. Narrowing the base encourages the pupil to swing with control to maintain their balance (2).

    Gate:

  • To encourage the pupil to develop central club face contact

    Place 1 or 2 tees either side of the object tee or ball to create a ?gate? for the club to swing through at impact (1). Start with a fairly wide gate, gradually narrowing as the pupil improves their skill. A similar drill is achieved with just one tee on the outside of the ball (2).

    Bow and Bounce | Start Golf - Long Game - Set-up

    Bow and Bounce:

  • To encourage the pupil to adopt a correct posture routine and good balance for the swing

    Pupils begin by holding the club at waist height and parallel to the ground, looking straight forward (1). Tip from the hips, keeping the back straight, allowing the club to fall until the club reaches the ground (2). Gently soften the knees until the knees are above the middle of the feet (3). The weight should be felt equally on the balls of the feet.
