Why This Drill Works (Kinetic Mechanics)

Moves the low point of the swing forward, ensuring ball-first contact.

How to Perform the Drill

The coach gives no set rep count. Our general guideline: 3 sets of 10 slow rehearsal reps, then half swings with a ball, adding speed only once the steps feel natural.

  1. Lay a towel flat on the ground 3 golfballs legthss, behind where your ball would go.

  2. Take your normal setup.

  3. Hit the ball without touching the towel.

  4. If you hit the towel, your angle of attack was too shallow or you cast the club.
