Hi I’m Matt Lockey, welcome to my Coach Lockey YouTube Channel. This YouTube channel is designed to help you play better golf, and to help you enjoy your golf more!

I specialise in golf course vlogs, golf challenges, golf tips, golf lessons, golf club reviews and the odd golf club unboxing. So pretty much everything golf!

I want to help you play better golf by providing coaching videos on all topics about golf. How to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
As well as helping you produce the best long game you can have, I will help you lower your scores by chipping better, stopping duff and thin chips, pitching the ball closer and creating backspin like the tour pros. Finally, I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts too!

00:00 The Best Ball Striking Drill in Golf
00:59 How To Set Up The Drill
01:45 The Golf Swing Drill

How to strike your iron shots consistently how can you strike your irons consistently to help you hit more greens in regulation because if you want to lower your scores then you’re going to have to strike those irons to get that green in regulation St up and in this golf swing

Tip video I have got a simple golf drill here that’s going to put you in an environment that probably will make you feel a little uncomfortable and I use this golf drill for so many reasons in a lot of my lessons but it tends to resonate a lot with slices of the golf

Ball people that hit their irons high and wafty to the right golfers that swing over the top this will really transform your iron plate I promise you so what is the golf drill and it is going to make you feel uncomfortable it makes me feel uncomfortable even when I

Do it so this golf drill involves a tour stick and it’s loads easier if you are doing this out on a grass driving range but if you’re not you can manufacture it so I’ve got a little box here that I’m going to place my to stick above and I

Want my to stick to be at the start of my golf B the end of my Tor stick to be above the golf ball and I want the Tor stick roughly two balls above the golf ball this is how I’ve set mine up I’ve

Put my teab bag on the T stick so it doesn’t fall down and I’ve got a little box here that’s going to prop that stick up a little bit so again if you’re not on a grass range this is still doable I want the back of your golf ball to be at

The end of your tour stick this honestly it makes me feel uncomfortable when I do this drill but putting yourself in an environment that you’re uncomfortable with is going to make you shift your patterns if you come over the top in your goal swing cut across it have big

Out to to in paths you’re going to absolutely destroy that t stick so people that I See Come Over the Top This Way start with their upper body too much then to get the Sha really steep cut across it you’re going to come down and smash this tors stick out of the ground

If you’re on a grass driving range or destroy your torsi set up which after a while will get a bit annoying because you have to keep putting it back so putting that t stick there putting yourself in an environment and pushing yourself in a way that you’re not

Comfortable I tend to see really helps loads of my lessons and it certainly help me growing up as a junior as well putting yourself in scenarios to make yourself do something completely different so what I want you to do is set the set yourself up to the golf ball

Like so like you normally would and just do a little few rehearsals you don’t even need the golf ball there to start with so set yourself up like that golf Ball’s at the end of that Tor stick and even just do a few little chips forward especially if you’re nervous

About it if you do come over the top start with sort of your right shoulders get this club steep hit that tall stick you know that you’re doing it wrong once you build up the confidence that you are going to miss this stick you’ve done a few chip shots chipping that golf ball

Forward maybe or a few demo swings even without a golf ball a few full swings without a golf ball set yourself up that ball is at the end of that tors stick it’s right down the middle of my golf ball it’s down the line of my target set

Yourself up and again if you feel don’t do that I haven’t even it shot and I’ve destroyed my station see that is how annoying and frustrating it’s going to be if you keep whacking This Tall stick out of the ground set yourself up and when you feel confident with those demo swings that

You’re not going to hit that t stick put a ball down down and hit a few little chip shots forwards and if you’ve got a luxury of a launch monitor or if you’re in a lesson have a look and see what’s happening to that Golf Club through impact your paths

Might change your angle of attacks might change and if your path changes then you’ve got the option to now move your face to path because if you’re over the top cutting across it I guarantee you that your face is going to be open to your path more often than not hitting

Those big slices if you’ve got the luxury now of hitting more from the inside with your path which this drill will hopefully allow you to do or even straighten up your path you can start to think about ways of squaring that face up to hit straighter golf shots you’ll

Be delivering much better Lofts on the golf club which is going to make you hit the golf ball further and you might even get to a point where you hit that nice baby little drawer all from a super simple drill that’s going to put you in an environment to stop you coming over

The top stop you slicing that golf ball and it will make you feel very uncomfortable until you get confident with it put that ball at the end of that tall stick set yourself up and when you are confident you’ve built yourself up with practice swings you’ve hit a few

Chip shots forward with a golf ball stop wiggling that club because I’m going to whack it again go ahead and hit a full shot 2.6 into out there that’s setting me up nicely if I’ve got good space control to hit that little draw I’m still hitting five down on it as well

Which surprises people because lots of people think that this drill shallows you out but I’m still hitting down on that golf ball taking Loft off compressing it to hit better well struck iron shots a great drill to help you improve that consistency get that Greening regulation stack going in the right

Direction hopefully hitting that golf ball a little bit closer and lowering your golf scores let me know in the comments down below if this drill helps and if it does make sure you hit that big red subscribe button we are getting so close to 50,000 subscribers and if

  1. As you would say "wafty" right, left shoulder opens too fast. Going to give this a try. Cheers Happy New Year!!

  2. Being a lefty, it's a case of 'wafty left' right shoulder opens up too quickly. Happy New Year Coach from Queensland Australia. Last round of the year for me is in just under 3 hours. 🍻 cheers from the antipodes.

  3. Done this drill every time I'm struggling with contact (so every week 😂). And yes, I have to add that we miss the Muppets Tour 😢😜

  4. Just annoying when you use certain tool to demonstrate what you meant to do to show what you can show your viewer to be good player. In my opinion, as l’ve seen so many instructional videos, but the most effective are from Giles Gile for hitting your ball very consistently, and because if you know that system i.e. your pitching in-line with your ear this is depends whether your left or right handed, lrons under your eyes or just about, Your just outside part of your arm. Now they are very true, l can see it to your instructional they are all true. Now coming to the speed of the balls. Mr Emery ( forgot his first name initial start A, please check it out) if you want speed, check this out , downswing slower( linear), swing ( angular) fastest as you can then even the very average, grip should’ve in count to ten, grip should be between 4 to 6. Then we can all achieve that farthest you can hit the ball,and consistently playing golf. Please check this out guys, l practiced this now l am hitting the balls farthest, consistently even in my very old age of 76. I even won many trophies in senior competions. Please check this golf instructional videos. I like this guy instructional video too, don’t get me wrong, but all fairness instructional videos are very, very good and care for all of us amateur players. Well done to all instructional golf videos. Without your true kindness we never can play the way we are playing golf as we give to each golf player who are golf fanatics or just enjoying. Very, very done guys,truly appreciate that from me.

  5. Another great practice routine to add to my armoury, thanks coach. Happy new year to you and your family.

  6. Years ago I bought a device called the Inside Path I doubt if it's still available but it absolutely works.

  7. Will be trying this later this afternoon at an indoor practice facility, thanks Coach! 👍

  8. How do I set this up to still hit a fade? I'm just more comfortable hitting fades but could use the work

  9. I used this drill to fix my driver fade, and slice tendency. I will practice using this drill on my irons too now! Thanks for a great video!

  10. another great drill, i have improved my golf this year thanks to your tip videos coach, I wish you and your family a very happy new year!!

  11. Ty coach, nothing worse than fatting iron shots. Btw thinking of going to Spain/portugal around march, any resorts u can recommend?

  12. Happy New Year to you Matt and your family, all the very best wishes for your golfing adventures on the channel through 2024.👍

  13. Wish you'd had a couple camera angle shots from behind…And isn't there an easier drill (set-up wise) you can do with a couple tees in the ground near the ball (sorry I can't be more specific) that has a similar end in mind?
