Wow, thanks for such a quick reply, Shawn just one more question regarding setup on 3-5 fairway woods. Are they also setup with my nose or sternal notch directly in the middle of the club head? If I understand your reply below correctly , as I will now do so for the driver. Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this, don’t mean to be anal about this but I want to be sure I’m not misunderstanding any guidance you’re providing.
See “hammer drill” video to understand how to be behind the ball regardless of the clubs; it’s a great visual with the fairway woods. Then find a nice doorframe and place a ball against it and set up with a 3 or 5 wood like you were going to drive it through the door frame. Very powerful set up.
Shawn I joined awhile ago after watching many of your videos, the question I have is you state in one of the free published videos if you don’t require distance or better said have a problem with distance of the tee you can gain more accuracy by setting up with the club in the middle of your stance ball just in front and swing along the ground allowing the ground to serve as and aide. However in that same video you correct or say differently to place the center of the driver or middle of the driver in the middle of your stance. So I’m unclear if u actually mean the actual center of the driver head or just. The driver centered in the middle of your stance. Can u elaborate here.
Hi Clarence! This was for the driver for accuracy video and we simply want to set up the same way as a fairway wood with the CENTRE OF THE CLUB HEAD in the centre of the stance which would of course place the ball between the centre and the lead heel. You want to play the “straight fade” and aim a tad left centre of the fairway and let it drift back towards the centre.
When hitting a fade or draw do you set the clubface square to the target line that the intermediate point is on?
Not necessarily; it is the flow of the swing (see “blur of club” video and the “arc-blur” videos) and use the “goldie locks series” to adjust club face to the desired ball flight curvature.
OK, thanks Shawn! I am going to the range and give the ball position to path a whirl. I will try what you say in many videos….does this “feel” like it will go where I want.
👍👍
Right hand golfer Been having issues pulling my driver left of target starts left and draws. Contact is good. Could I have ball to far forward?
Great guess, also, have you seen the ‘great driver nugget’ video as well as the “diagonal stance series”?
Thanks for the feedback.
Where should I be looking when I address the ball using a driver?
At the tee; and you want to know or imagine where the tip of that tee is and you are getting ready to whip the tip of the tee into the direction you want the ball to start on with ease and velocity.
Thank you sir.
