🛑 STOP YOUR OVER THE TOP 🛑
This is one of the most common drills I’ll give a player who comes “over the top” where they might hit pulls & slices
🔹Place a golf club down behind the golf ball
🔹Measure half a foot and place and alignment stick in the ground at the same angle as your club sits at address
🔹Work on swinging under the stick not over it
✅ Over the top, pulls, slices… GONE!
Let me know how it goes 👊🏼
Do you have a “SWAY” pattern in your backswing?
A sway pattern is where the lower body moves away from the target and the upper body typically tilts towards the target
This causes fat shots, thin shots, basically it can cause any shot known to man!
Here’s how to fix it…
PS: (Free “Fix Your Sway” PDF available below!)
🔹Improve your setup. Make sure your head is behind the ball vs in front of the ball. This will help with rotation
🔹Feel like the chest moves over your trail shoe. This will help feel the correct rotation vs tilting over towards the target

DRIVER RELEASE
My good friend @kerrodgraygolf put up a great video of this drill as well recently (check it out on his IG). This is an excellent way to feel the driver releasing and hitting up on the ball. Too often, the players struggling to square up the face of the driver are opening up their chest too early in the downswing which has a steepening effect and delays the release.
This drill encourages the chest to stay closed longer, allowing the arms to lower, the club to shallow, creating a more in-to-out path.
This clip was taken from an online lesson to one of my @skillestapp subscribers.
Try this out and let me know how it goes!

A large section of the Ryder Cup hospitality at Marco Simone is on fire. I cannot believe this is possible with all the fire rating standards now, this would have been a catastrophe last week. Hopefully everyone is ok🤞
Prepare to be mesmerized by this swing! How does Rory create clubhead speed? @mark_immelman takes us frame by frame to see how the combination of pelvis lift, lead knee flexion and chest bend create a slingshot of force.

If you've ever considered playing a longer driver, check out this video on the influence of shaft length on driver clubhead speed.
Lots of pictures and a tolerable amount of math.
Okay, another Major is over, which means it's time for another roundup of the best golf improvement tweets I've seen over the last couple months. You may want to bookmark, there's some good stuff in here.
