I know this is a cracker to make those small gains in your driver set up! Which one were you closer to?!
Do you push with your right hand/arm or pull with the left? What side dominates the swing?
Makes good sense to me was wondering when you put the ball on the tee do you put logo up behind etc and when teeing off where are your eyes focused on the ball? Thanks ๐ป
Simple but efficient, now I understand my fault
I hover my driver alex giving me a free takeaway ๐
Quick question. Now would this not be the โeasiestโ way to be able to produce a slice/fade and hook/draw to address any doglegs off the tee? Just go more toe up or toe down as needed?
That "slice" is what I describe to everyone as my high cut ๐ great tip can't wait to try this at the range
Gotta try this. You have helped my game a ton. Still slicing my drive terribly but im working on it.
Excellent job in explaining how the sitting of the driver head affects the type of drive produced! I like the idea of moving the driver head up to a shaft and use that as the proper angle when setting up for a drive! Something I will try! Well Done Alex!
When the driver is sitting on the ground and is in the ideal situation, are your hands a fraction forward that is, directly opposite the ball position?

This is a great and easy tip I will try the next time I am at the range. Thanks for the excellent instructional content. I have a question. I am continually having a problem keeping my head behind the ball when using my driver! Do you have any lessons that could help me with this? Thank you, Alex
Another way to think about it is the handle is pointing at your package
Hi Alex. My coach has always preached โrespect the design and manufacturing of the clubโ. Simply allow the club to gently drop onto to the ground while holding it lightly in the fingertips and it will sole itself as intended. Once I did this with the driver especially, it was like magic. Golfers will also discover in doing this that the proper amount of forward shaft lean intended by the club manufacturer will reveal itself. That simple. Easy peasy.
Can you devote some videos to how to deal with other than flat lies .. side hill , downhill, up hill etc ?
