HOW TO CREATE MORE LAG IN THE GOLF SWING
How would you like to know how to increase your lag without hurting your swing and pulling the club down?
When you pull the club down you open the door for club casting and burning up your lag.
It’s not always bad to pull the club, but it can be if you do it the wrong way.
Let’s take a look at what the club is doing and the proper motions from the top of the swing, building lag, and through contact.
Playing accurate pitch shots to the distance you want can be challenging for a lot of players. A player will do the correct preparation prior to playing the shot in that they laser an exact yardage, check their lie, wind and elevation change, but then guess at how long to swing the club to produce the required distance. Then they wonder why they are unable to pitch the ball close to hole on a regular basis. There is a better way.
I have been teaching my players a pitching distance drill that’s made a huge difference to their ability to regularly get the ball close to the hole with a pitch shot. It is a system that I copied from Dave Pelz, it is simple to understand and learn, as well as implement on the golf course.
The feedback from my players after learning the distance drill is that this transforms their ability to pitch the ball close to the hole. As they set up to a shot there is no guesswork as to how long the swing should be or which club they should use. All the guessing is taken away and you are free to execute quality pitch shots. It will do the same for you also.
Backswing vs Downswing – How to Shallow Your Club
Many golfers imagine the downswing is simply a mirror image of the backswing… but when we actually compare the 2 we will see that is not the case at all!
In reality, the arms, legs, and club should be in a very different position going back and coming down.
Understanding this dynamic will help your golf swing in a number of ways:
– encourage more rotation through the ball
– help deliver the club from the inside
– lead to more solid contact
– shallow the club in transition
In today’s video Zach will show you a great drill to help you feel the proper positions.
Simple Golf Drills to Stop Hitting Behind the Ball
First, I want to explain why you’re hitting behind the golf ball, what you need to do to correct it, and then how you can practice it with a couple simple feedback drills.
In terms of hitting behind the ball, let’s first define what we want to do, and then we’ll talk about the things you can do to stop that from happening, and I’ll give you some drills to do.
Now, I’m going to pull a simple alignment rod. Now, we’re on a mat here, on which an alignment rod here will work fine. If you’re on the grass, you can spray-paint a line or just have a line as a reference. A piece of tape or something like that would work fine.
I’m going to put this alignment rod straight in line with the golf ball on the ground. (Watch the video to see what I mean.) So, the point is, when we’re hitting too far behind the ball, that compromises our contact, compression, and distance that the golf ball goes.
We want to fix that. If I were to take a normal setup here, if we watch good golfers, their club will come down, will strike the ball first, and hit the ground second.
So, if I remove this golf ball, and that’s the line where it normally is on, what we want to be able to train to do is have the club head hit in front of the line where our golf ball would be.
That’s the first piece of this.
So, when someone would come in to train this in person, if we have solidness of contact issues, I will put a line on the ground, we’ll set up as if the golf ball’s right on it, and we’ll start with little short swings, just chip length, and get you getting that club head to hit the ground in front of it.

Great Putting Tip
Touring Pro Ryan Carter, talks about the best putting lesson he ever had. Ryan is the holder of 6 course records and has played golf on tours all over the world for the last 12 years.
Basically you set 3 balls up in a perfectly straight line and you get over one on the end and adjust your stance until the line looks straight to you. Ryan painted a 16 foot straight line in his garage and used to stand over it every night just getting the feel of where he had to be to feel like the line was straight.
Ryan also told me that Ben Crane used to stand over balls in this straight line arrangement for LONG periods every day and would not go play until the line looked straight. Ben is one of the best putters on tour.
Do this for 10 minutes a day every day.
Try it out.
