Many golfers struggle to shallow the club with precision, but a few simple adjustments to their swing will bring their shallowing technique to perfection.
When taking golf shots, often players struggle to hit with the center of their clubface. This struggle often results in wild shots that hook right or left of the intended target.
Developing your ability to shallow out the club will drastically improve your golf game and act as a vital utility in many different scenarios on the golf course.
Shallowing assists in squaring up the clubface on impact when implemented correctly during a player’s downswing.
Learning this technique has shown to improve the striking ability of golfers from novice to veteran.
This technique causes the golf club to flatten out horizontally, without taking the swing too steep. A steep swing will always result in a poorly struck golf shot.
Most players fail to realize that nearly all golf swings are dominant to the left side. Right handed golfers thus should be pulling to the left side of their bodies during their downswings in order to impact the golf ball correctly.
Neglecting to perform this swing correctly will result in a right side dominant downswing that will end up sending the club too far over the top, causing the swing to go outside of the plane, steeping out in the path to eventual impact.
One of the most important aspects of shallowing occurs when golfers shift their weight to their leading leg. Typically players should shift at least 80% of their weight to the leg they’re leading their swing with.
Using nature to drop the club into the slot occurs when gravity takes over the golf club during the shifting of weight. Working against gravity will produce pulled shots and slices.

Shallowing and posture drill
Most golfers suffer from a steep downswing, leading many to hit slices and pulls. This makes players move slightly away from the target line, thus missing their marks.
Shallowing out the downswing creates a straightened shot that lands as intended on target.
A simple solution comes by way of an improved posture, which levels out shoulder turns and creates an easier swing.
Players that shallow out their clubs often position their upper body on the backswing so that they’re behind the ball. Keeping the club in front of your body also improves the shallow downswing, by staying inside and looping the shot.
Full shoulder turns contribute to improving your downswing golf game, making it very simple to swing the club and send the ball on a more shallow path.
The lower body plays a huge part in effective golf drills to shallow out the club. If your swings are typically very steep, it may be fruitful to start with the lower body rather than other areas.
Once shallowing out the club has become a natural function for players, they’ll experience substantial improvements in overall play.
With improved ball striking accuracy comes an increased amount of power on the drive.
Golf drills of this nature are developed to help players find their own personal styles within the proven fundamentals of golf.
Shallowing out the club early in the downswing increases the overall likelihood that the ball will reach the intended target.
Maintaining control over the right elbow’s proximity to the body during hip rotation will also determine the successes or failures of this highly coveted downswing.
Most golfers, from novices to PGA Tour pros, insist that learning how to effectively shallow out the club has improved their game many times over.
