If you struggle with an over-the-top golf swing that causes you to slice the golf ball, I have the perfect swing tip for you. This simple golf tip is going to get you hitting from the inside every time, helping you hit longer and straighter golf drives. I mean, who doesn’t want that? This basic golf swing drill is helping so many golfers, and especially beginner golfers, learning how to hit their driver. Before I give you this simple golf tip, though, if you’re new to the channel, hello and welcome. If you’re a returning viewer, hello again. Little reminder for you all.

There’s also a new hype button. If you can find it, press it as it helps this video go viral. So, if you want to hit from the inside every time to help you hit longer and straighter golf drives, I need you to grab a tour stick. If you don’t have a tool stick, they’re super cheap and you might as well get some because if you want to look like a good golfer, you need to have these sticking out the end of your bag. So, it’s worth getting some just for that reason. Anyway, now if you’re on a grass range or practice area, great, cuz you can just literally stick your to stick in the ground at the angle that we want, which is going to be around the lie of our driver. So, pop your driver on the floor and stick your tost stick in the ground on a similar angle. Now, lots of you are going to be practicing on the range with mats, so it might be worth getting something like this. You literally just pop your tost stick in here. This is adjustable, so it changes the angle of which your tool stick is sat or you can pop your tost stick in range buckets cuz they’ve generally got holes in them at certain angle as well. So, that’s also another quick cheap way of doing it. Like I said, pop your tost stick in the ground. So, in the ground in line with the ball and you kind of want the stick around where your driver head is going to be. Now, if you’re not confident to do this cuz you think you’re going to smash your club into the stick, then move it a little further away so you’re not going to hit it. Now, if you swing over the top and struggle with massive slices, it’s likely that your club is going to be coming from this direction, over the top of this alignment stick, which is going to cause steeper angle attacks, out to in swing paths, pull shots, big slices, and a loss of distance. If you want to hit from the inside, we need to to learn and figure out how to get your club coming more from underneath this stick, which is going to help your club bottom out a little bit earlier, getting your angle of attack up, hitting more from the inside, helping you with straighter shots or even a slight little draw. So, what I want you to do is start with small swings, half swing, 3/4 swings, getting an understanding of where your body needs to be to allow the club to come from underneath this stick. So, I’m feeling instead of coming over, my shoulders aren’t turning that quick. So, if I was to go to here, my shoulders are still close to the target. Sort of my back pointed towards the target. Whereas when I come over the top of the stick, I spin my upper body really quick, which gets my hands pushing out too far and then my club steepening too much. So, it’s those sorts of feelings that I want you to try and connect with in your body to help you understand where this club needs to be and how you’re going to get it there. So, I’m feeling more upper body here. My hips haven’t turned. My upper body hasn’t really turned. My arms are lowering more, getting this club closer to the ground. So that arc is going to bottom out sooner, helping me hit up on the golf ball and move that path from the inside over the top. Spinning my hips too quick, spins my upper bodies too quick, kicks my hands out too quick, gets that club pointing way over the top of this stick. So that’s drill number one. And literally just chip a few drivers forward. So I’m setting myself up. I’m here, here, underneath. Not really much happening. I’m kind of moving towards that target with not much turn. That’s getting the club to lower. And then I’m just going to chip it forwards. Lovely straight ball flight. It’s just going to miss that leg. Oh yeah. Carried it by a mile. Lovely. And that’s a chip. You’ll be surprised how far the ball goes just doing that because you’re aligning all the forces. You haven’t got your club path force going across the golf ball. You haven’t got your club face aligned somewhere completely different. You’ll be lining everything up to produce more power to hit those longer and straighter drives. Then I want you to simply build it up. So now I’m going to take myself all the way up to the top of my back swing. And now I’m going to try and educate myself on where I need to get to again in getting my hands to lower, not allow my body to spin. So I’m going up to the top here, pushing a little bit towards the target, allowing those hands to drop, and then I’m going to start building it up. And again, if you’re scared that you’re going to hit this stick, just make sure it’s a little further back so you can’t connect with it. Up to the top. Lower those hands. Shift towards that target a little bit rather than your shoulders going this way and opening too fast. Up to the top. Lower. Lower. Up to the top. Lower. Lower. And again, that’s not full pelt, but nearly identical ball flight that could even hit the other golf ball. That’s consistency for you. So, this drill is more about helping you understand what your body needs to feel and where things need to be. And as soon as you get the part of your body which you think, “Oh, that’s different to what I normally feel.” Whether it’s your hips, whether it’s your upper body, whether it’s your hands and arms, it’s going to be down to you to try and feel that. This isn’t a drill like pop this across your chest and do this. This is going to be more education and learning, feel-based stuff to help you hit more from the inside. And finally, you can then build it up to a full swing when you’ve got that confidence, too. Again, be careful of where you place the alignment stick. I don’t want someone in the comments going, “I did this and I smashed my driver head up.” Don’t do that, please. I would hit a full shot, but the green keeper has just decided to come and cut my fairway, so I can’t do it. Maybe I’ll just overlap some lovely drives that I’ve hit in previous videos for you. I hope this helps. And again, as always, if you’re not subscribed to the channel, please do consider hitting that subscribe button.
