Hi Shawn,
so my question is regarding the woods and driver . My grip is strong with face slightly closed , All my Irons are consistently going in the direction of my intended target .(Great problem to have ! ) however this grip does not result in good contact & ball flight with the woods and driver ( mostly low over drawn shot shape ), so to correct this i do not close the face during grip and the ball flight and direction is on target consistently , so does this tell me to use 2 different grips ? or am i missing something in my swing when hitting the woods ?
Hi Tommy! Sorry for the delay; just got back from the Mexico Open; crazy week out there! 😝😀
the woods and driver ARE FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT CLUBS than the irons; some of my students need to close the face more and some need to open more compared to the irons; you simply deliver your action-task into the direction you want to start the ball and observe the flight, see a pattern, then adjust accordingly. Now if your backswing is more inside than it should be with woods and driver, this can also adversely affect the flight to a hook; so see “match backswing to ball direction” to confirm that the momentum is flowing in the proper direction as well!
ok , I will review the video, Thanks for the reply , Mexico open looks amazing !
Hi Shawn,
what I have learnt is for irons eyes between the ball and the leading edge,
for driver on tip of tee or at least and idea where the tip of the tee is.
For 3 wood or hybrid or irons off the tee , would the eyes be on the grass or tip of tee?
You could do either one! 😀👍See which works best! Send the tee into the direction of flight or the grass clippings; see what your mind prefers.
Playing a Golf league here these days.
To put it simply, you ARE the best teacher out there!!! Your methods can get a person on course within a week!
I have never been so consistent off the tee, Yes I do have issues, where I top my 3 wood occasionally. Irons I need to be more consistent. Somehow I am unable to levitate and my draws become pushes or low draws.
A very important shot 142y to flag I decided to hit a 9 Fade, and I shanked it, unluckily went OB and it was my stroke hole. I just cant figure out what went wrong. I hit my 9i 150Y.
Tomorrow hoping to make a video of iron shots and will try and do a video session with you next week. Really looking forward to that.
Good stuff; sounds like you are back on track from yesterday’s comments! 😀👍
