Drills From Golf Lesson

Some drills from my golf lessons:

  • Focus on left and right arms

    • Right hand halfway down shaft
    • Left hand in standard position
    • Do golf swing and try to think about arms, right angled right arm, extended left arm
    • Slowly move right hand up club after ever shot, should only do around 4
  • Controlling face

    • Swing and stop early the back swing
    • Shaft should basically be horizontal to the ground
    • Confirm that face is more open, more pointing towards sky
    • Swing from there
    • For reference watch this, I was generally hooking irons so opening the face was the advice for me
  • Getting good feel with club handle

    • Swing like normal, with an iron
    • Focus on getting the handle pointing towards ball at the top of the swing
  • Faldo drill

    • Bring back foot behind
    • With right hand only on club take a few swings
    • Have the feeling that you're creating and getting inside to out path, hit on arc
    • Also try to have the feeling of left shoulder pointing upwards
