What the Top Golf Coaches Recommend Players Do To Break 90βs or under! (No Matter The Course)
You know what grinds my gears? A bad golf drive. And I bet it does the same to you. We've all been there, shanking and hooking, watching our scores soar higher than an eagle. But here's a kicker - fixing your drive can slash 8-10 strokes off your game. Yeah, you read that right.
Why Most Fixes Don't Stick
Now, every Tom, Dick, and Harry has a tip for a straighter drive. But they're like Band-Aids on a broken leg. Hank Haney, the legend who fine-tuned Tiger Woods, hit the nail on the head - it's all about the brain. Our noggin is hardwired for survival, not for leisure sports like golf. So, when we overcompensate one swing with another, we end up back at square one.
Haney's Simple Fix
But here's the good news. Coach Haney has a dead-simple fix. No rocket science, no fancy gadgets. Just three steps:
Practice Swing Off the Ground - Swing like you're at bat in baseball. It resets your muscle memory and gets you comfy with a square club face.
Check Your Club Face Mid-Swing - Take a normal swing, but pause it near your back leg. Is your club face square? If not, your backswing's the culprit.
Put It All Together - Now take a full swing. You'll be amazed how much closer that ball lands to your target.
Sounds too simple? Sometimes, the best solutions are. And it works β just ask Coach Haney's 70,000 clients.
Another Pro Tip: The Half Swing
Let's switch gears. Ask yourself: Do you lack distance or accuracy? If it's the latter, here's a golden nugget - the half swing.
I've got this buddy, outdrives me every time. But his shots? As wild as a rollercoaster. He's strong, sure. But his form? Needs work.
Why Half Swings Matter
Form Over Strength - Half swings show you what needs fixing, without muscle power clouding the picture.
Know Your Range - Ever overshoot the green from 70 yards out? Half swings help you gauge your true range.
Trimming down your swing can be a game-changer. You might not drive like Hercules, but your shots will be as precise as a surgeon's scalpel. And that's what shaves off those extra strokes.
So, give these tips a whirl. And who knows? Next time we hit the links, maybe you'll be the one showing off your killer drive.
