Why this drill works

This is a general grip evaluation drill for inferred face-control patterns. It is useful when ball flight suggests the face is influencing the miss more than the measured path.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Review the lead-hand placement before the club goes back.

  2. 2

    Set the trail hand so the grip supports a square face instead of holding the face open.

  3. 3

    Make slow rehearsals where the clubface can square naturally through the ball.

  4. 4

    Use short shots and ball flight feedback before moving back to full speed.
