Baseball slice fix

Steven Orr, 10 January 2012 16:04

When the clubhead works up and down on a neutral plane during the swing, that increases your chance of hitting the ball squarely with the clubhead working down the target line. The slice occurs when the player applies a glancing blow to the ball with the club working across the target line from out-to-in. As Steven Orr explains in this ...

Set up for launch

Steven Orr, 10 January 2012 16:00

Your typical driver comes with around 10 degrees of loft on the clubface but if you look at the stats from the top Tours, players actually launch the ball at around 15 degrees. So how do they acquire this extra height? The answer is that they set up much differently with their driver than they do with their irons, as ...

Which club should you chip with?

Steven Orr, 18 August 2010 16:55

Many golfers who have recently taken up the game naturally struggle to understand which club to use around the green and the factors to take into consideration. The goal when chipping should be to choose a club that gets you over whatever obstacle you face between you and the flag. It could be a bunker, some thick rough or even ...

Relieve tension in your chipping

Steven Orr, 18 August 2010 16:50

Golfers that try and keep the clubface square to the target when chipping will naturally suffer from excessive tension in the arms and wrists. As a result, their ball striking will be poor and extra pressure will be put on their putting to try and save par. In this golf video tip, TG Elite Teaching Pro Steven Orr shows you ...

Chip with a rescue

Steven Orr, 18 August 2010 16:35

Poor ball position is a common cause of mis-struck chip shots. Position the ball too far back means the club will be coming in too steep leading to fat shots. Positioning the ball too far forward means you’ll be hitting up on the ball, increasing the risk of catching the ball thin. With a rescue club, the ball position naturally ...

When you're ball is sitting down in the rough, it can be frustrating to consider that you might not be able to reach the green in regulation because of it.

Strike Your Irons Better

Steven Orr, 08 December 2009 11:33

The key to powerful and penetrating iron shots is a contact where the ball is compressed with a downward blow, ball then turf. By understanding how your irons are designed, you will be well on the way to hitting your irons longer and straighter. Remember, irons are designed to sit in a forward position, with the shaft pointing toward the ...

Steven Orr, 07 December 2009 11:03

Do you suffer from… • Slice with a driver• Lack of clubhead speed Why does this happen? It could well be your takeaway. It's the movement that triggers your swing so it needs to be spot on. Get it wrong and it could lead to a series of swing faults that will seriously ruin your swing. If you cock your wrists too early ...

Check your chips

Steven Orr, 07 December 2009 10:03

Do you suffer from… • Lack of backspin with chip shots Why does this happen? It’s a downward strike into the ball that generates backspin for short shots. If you attack the ball from a shallow angle or try and scoop the ball airborne with your hands, you won’t generate the backspin and your ball will run through the green. It ...
