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.

GOLF DRILLS ON HOW TO SQUARE THE CLUB AT IMPACT

In this video I teach you how Sergio Garcia uses the laws of physics to help him square the clubface at impact.

I give two drills for square clubface impact and explain the keys for square clubface at impact.

These methods will help you finally learn to square the clubface at impact CONSISTENTLY.

Obviously when you square your clubface for straighter golf shots your scores will get lower.

Your wrists move in three specific ways during the downswing. Your wrist can hinge up or it can hinge down. Hinging up is radial deviation and hinging down his ulnar deviation. The second way my wrists work is called a flexion and extension or bow and cupped. The last movement of it is really part of my arm as well, which is pronation when the back of the hand is up towards the sky and supination is palm up towards the sky.

In a stock golf swing, if we get ourselves down to the last parallel position, let’s assume that my left wrist in this portion is flat. To get my wrists from there in my downswing to the golf ball I am unhinging or ulnar deviating and I am supinating or rotating my forearm.
.
Then I unhinge my wrist to get the club from up in the air to down to the ground. As I’m doing that I’m turning and I’m also adding some supination. At impact, my left wrist is completely unhinged down. And with that, by the time I get to impact, if I have a neutral grip, it has rotated all the way back to, towards the target.

Now let’s talk about from the top of your backswing. Let’s assume at the top of the backswing your left wrist is flat. Some players will have a flat left wrist and they maintain their flat left wrist. Some players have a flat left wrist and they go into extension. We would prefer you to go from flat left wrist and keep your left wrist flat, or to go from a flat left wrist into some form of a flexion.

So it’s adding flexion, adding supination and unhinging to get the club down to the ball. Those are the three main movements.

Flexion or bow and supination go along together. When you add some flexion, you get some supination for free. If you add extension or you cup your left wrist, you’re in big time trouble because that goes with pronation or against supination.

The point of this video is to explain there are three wrist movements. They’re happening simultaneously as you go. It’s not as though you’re making a downswing and saying, okay, I’m going to do this first and then I’m going to unhinge and then I’m going to supinate. They’re not broken apart. You’re doing them simultaneously. Just like if I walk, I’m doing a bunch of things simultaneously, like any other activity you would do.

The point of this is just information. So one more time, assuming I have a flat wrist at last parallel, the two main motions from here to impact are I’m adding supination or left arm rotation and I’m also unhinging. I’m unhinging with some supination to get the club down to the ball. Ideally I have a flat left wrist and I’m maintaining it. If not flat, I’d rather it be bowed or arched back from here. You can do that from the top. You can do that towards the bottom, or you can do that into the golf ball.

How would you like to get more distance in golf? How do we generate power? For those looking to crush the ball, this video on Get Distance With backswing width is for you.

Keeping the width in your takeaway simply means that when you start the backswing, your right arm and elbow stop breaking away which will create a wider swing arc……..you want to maintain that same distance or width throughout the entire golf swing….backswing and finish.
