Drill: Start Each Swing With A Smooth Take-Away

Jack Nicklaus has said many times that the first 2 feet of the swing are the most important. 

And it's totally true. You see, the swing is a chain reaction, and the first two feet of the swing is about the only part of the swing that you can consciously control.

You want to start each swing with a smooth, low take-away. So here's a great drill to teach you how to do this.

Setup to a shot as normal, but place a tee about 15 to 18 inches behind your ball just inside the target line.


Now simply practice swinging and taking the clubhead back. As you take your clubhead back it should knock over the tee. If you don't knock it over, then stop your swing and start again. Keep doing this until you consistently knock over the tee.

When you're first doing this exercise, start your swing smoothly in a one-piece motion using the entire upper body, and move the club away slowly. 

Once you get good at doing this exercise with a slow take-away, then speed up your take-away until you're swinging at full speed while hitting the tee in your backswing.

Do this exercise for 30 days and you'll notice a huge improvement in your and shot patterns.

Drill To Hit The Ball Straighter

then you know your swing path was either too far left or right

The shortest distance between two objects is via a direct line. So if you're starting the ball way too far to the left or way too far to the right of where you want your ball to end up, then that's going to cost you distance.

To hit the ball longer, more consistently you need to work on starting the ball straight where you want.

Years ago a golf magazine had an article with Ken Green, and it showed him hitting golf balls out of his living room through the ranch-slider doors that were open about a foot or so and the ball was flying out onto the golf course that was next to his house.

Crazy stuff!

Now although that may seem a bit crazy it's actually a great way to work on improving your swing path so you get the ball starting consistently on the line you want it to start.

To do this place some objects in front of where you're hitting balls so that your ball has to go through them to travel directly towards your target.

A couple of closed golf umbrellas, with the top points pushed into the ground works well for this.


Once they are standing up on their own they essentially form a gateway for your ball to travel through to ensure your ball is starting off on the correct path.

If you hit either umbrella then you know your swing path was either too far left or right, and you'll know how to correct this by seeing which umbrella you hit.

Now when you're working on your club path you should do so with small swings first. Start off with chip shots trying to hit them through the gate you've setup. Then move up to half swings, then three quarter swings and finally, once you've mastered all the shorter swings, then full swings with a driver.

Also, you can move the gate closer together so the gap your ball has to fly through is smaller, thus making it harder when you start to get really good at this.

Also, you'll have to experiment with the distance you position your ball from the 'gate'. If you really get into doing this you can record how close you've got the gap your ball has to fly through and then try to get it closer and closer together.

Make it a competition and try and beat your best.

When doing this you might want to use softer than normal golf balls rather than real golf balls, because if a ball ricochets off your gate and comes back to hit you it might hurt!

Let me know how you get on if you try this.
