Dan Frost, 11 October 2009 05:00

Every golfer wants to get more spin with their wedges. Whether it’s from a tight lie in the fairway, fluffy rough or soft sand, spin is the one thing we love to brag about to our playing partners. But it’s one thing wanting spin and another creating it. So as a visual golf drill, try drawing some radial lines on ...

Tape a champagne glass to the face of your sand wedge. This will help you visualise what the face of the club is doing during your golf swing. If ...

Cane across shoulders drill

Dan Frost, 10 October 2009 05:00

The 30-yard bunker shot is one of the hardest shots in golf. The key to achieving the distance, which is the hardest aspect of the shot, is in the angle of attack. This angle is dictated by the shoulders, so use this cane drill to get the visual feedback you need to set the shoulders up correctly. When you have ...

Nail the first tee shot without warming up

Dan Frost, 09 October 2009 10:58

One arm golf swing to prevent fat iron shots

Priding yourself on prudent course management, you take the long iron for safety off the tee on that tight par four.

Cane Drill

Dan Frost, 29 September 2009 13:04

That sound of the whip of the shaft through impact is a sure sign you've hit the ball with masses of power. It's a simple idea but one that should never be ignored. As a drill, grab an old shaft or cane and try and realise the potential power you have in the hands and in the release. Place a ...

The 8-Iron lob Shot With Steve Webster

Steve Webster, 28 September 2009 09:00

This drill is quite fun and I use it a lot in my short game practice routine to consolidate a few of the fundamental techniques that you need. The only way you can play what is effectively a medium height pitch shot with an 8-iron is to keep the loft on the club by keeping the hands low and soft. ...

Rule No. 1: Position The Ball

Butch Harmon, 27 September 2009 09:35

With the driver, most golfers play the ball too far forward and stand too far away from it. This might feel powerful, but it sets some bad things in motion. The forward ball position shifts the shoulders open to the target, which leads to an out-to-in swing and usually a slice. Standing too far from the ball pulls the upper ...

How To Spin Your Wedges On Command

Tiger Woods, 15 September 2009 12:02

Keep your big muscles moving through impact... If you're having problems hitting those little spinners with your wedges, perhaps your ball position or technique is off. I like to play the ball toward the middle of my stance on most irons, especially short irons. That helps me get my hands ahead of the ball through impact (above, middle), which is ...

Learn What Straight Is With Rory McIlroy

Rory McIlroy, 08 September 2009 10:20

I spent some time with putting coach Paul Hurrion recently and that has been very useful. We broke my stroke down to the basics and then just tightened everything up, working on my core stability.
