So if you’re someone who’s struggling with driver particularly distance perfect video for you today we’re going to cover a few things that are really going to help you hit up on the ball a couple of setup points a couple of really simple inswing thoughts that you
Can take to the range of the golf course start to hit up on the ball launch the ball higher and get more distance so we’ve teed up the ball we’ve roughly went for about half the golf ball above the club head how do we start setting up and swinging in order to hit
Up on the ball so in general what we want to try and Achieve is when we’re hitting our driver we want the club head to reach the bottom of the Swing Arc or the swing Circle and then we want that club head to start swinging up slightly and we’re only talking anywhere between
Sort of one 1° up maybe up to five if you’re a slightly slower speed golfer we want that upward angle into the ball so you might be asking the question why do we have to hit up on the ball couple of reasons in order to get maximum distance
From your current swing speed if you can hit up on the ball you’re going to launch the ball a lot higher so the launch angle is going to be really really high and generally we have lower spin so every shot that we hit has Back
Spin but if we can spin the ball less with a really high launch generally that’s a recipe for distance so if you want to gain distance without hitting the ball further improving contact and getting an more upward angle of attack are two simple ways to massively increase the
Distance So today we’re going to talk about angle of attack so there’s a few ways that we want to try and do it and there’s a few ways that we don’t okay so what we don’t want to do and this is a really common one lots of golfers do
This or try and hit up on the ball two things that I don’t want you to try and do number one is by placing the ball way too far forward in the stance yes that can get us hitting up on the ball but what it also does it affects the swing
Path if you place that ball too far forward in the stance that club head is much more likely to swing out to in the most common problem I see with golfers is slices and pills so they’re already swinging out in and this can quite often make it worse possibly slightly
Different if you’re someone who comes quite far from the inside difference being if you put that ball too far forward you’re just not going to strike it very good so by placing that ball too far forward it affects other things so don’t place it too far forward we’re
Just going to cover that in a minute and what we don’t want to do and this is a very common one as well people hit up on the ball by leaning back on the back foot so they set theirself up with the ball too far forward they lean way
Back again what tends to happen yes I’ve just hit up on that ball but that Ball’s also on the other Fairway as you lean back Lots you’re very likely to leave that club face wide open and yes you might hit up on the ball but good luck finding a lot of fair
Base big banana slice with that lean back so that’s we don’t want to happen what is the best way that you can start to hit up on the ball the most efficient way is by getting the ball inside the lead heel so if we draw a line it’s
Roughly around the lead heel so it’s not quite as far forward as what a lot of people are playing it that’s good for the swing path and what we’re going to do address to allow us or to encourage us to hit up on the ball is we are going
To tilt back the way not an excessive amount but we’re going to tilt back this this way a good guide is to place your hand on your right pocket and not slide it all the way to the knee because that would be too much but try and slide it
Somewhere between your pocket and your knee okay so we want a little bit of shoulder tilt with that our spine’s going to move with it and hopefully at the same time your head is going to slightly tilt this way so almost looks as if you’re looking at the back of the golf
Ball then from there what we want to try and think about is as we are swinging into the ball we are going to keep the head and the top half of the body more behind the ball we see the best drivers in the world who hit the ball quite far
They drive their lower body forward while keeping their upper body back yes it moves forward after impact but come impact generally having the chest the head the left ear is generally going to be behind the ball so that’s a great swing thought to have so get that ball
Inside your lead heel so right inside that left heel there with that we’re going to slide this halfway down our leg which creates that shoulder tilt and spine tilt that we’re looking for we’re looking at the back of the golf ball and then I want
You to try and feel like the left ear stays behind the ball as we turn our body so set ourselves up back ear behind the golf ball we’re going to hit up on the ball so much more often which is going to lead to higher drives longer drives less Spin and with
