Hit Out of a Divot

Your ball landed in a divot and you end up skulling it. When you scoop the ball, you make contact with the leading edge of the club, causing it to skull the ball.

Fix Your Push or Pull

The ball pushes to the right or pulls to the left when using your irons.

Angle Your Feet for More Control

Decreased flexibility can prevent proper hip rotation and therefore power, causing you to sway during your backswing. This is a very common problem for senior golfers because their muscles tighten as they age, inhibiting a proper turn for a full swing.

Hitting the 3 Wood Stinger

You are on a narrow fairway or it is very windy so you need to keep the ball lower.

High Draw

You need a draw but at the same time you require increased loft.

High Fade

You need a high flying left to right shot that lands softly.

Low Fade

You need a fade but at the same time have to keep the ball low. Reducing the underspin on the ball will help keep it low and come in from the left side of the target.

How to Punch

There is a crosswind, a headwind, or your ball is stuck in the rough and under a tree or another obstacle, forcing you to take a short and low shot.

Tension Kills the Game

When your arms are too tense, it prevents a natural flowing swing, then the ball will fly erratically and you will lose distance.

Drills To Help You Gain a Wide Swing Arc

You need to improve your swinging technique to gain extra yardage. You fail to complete your shoulder turn through finish, causing you will to lose accuracy and yardage.
