1. 🟢 Start Line + Connection Drill – Roll through a tight gate while keeping an alignment stick connected across your chest. Train face control, body connection, and centered strike together.

2. 🧠 Distance Control Challenge – 3 balls from multiple distances with a scoring zone behind the hole. Learn to control pace under pressure while eliminating short misses.

3. 🎯 Wedge Landing Zone Drill – Hit shots with multiple wedges into a designated landing towel. Focus on trajectory, strike, and controlling carry numbers.

4. 📏 50/70/90 Wedge Matrix – Build reliable scoring distances with connection and tempo. Same motion, different yardages, predictable results.

5. 🪄 Iron Start Line Challenge – Train one stock shot shape using an alignment stick as your start-line reference. Eliminate the double cross and tighten dispersion.

6. 🚀 Driver Fairway Simulation – Create a fairway window and score each drive based on execution. Train commitment, routine, and playable misses under pressure.

STOP Letting Your Hips Slide Through Impact ⛳️⬇️

If your hips move toward the target, your chest backs away, and your lead side pops up…

Your club has nowhere to go but behind you.

Here’s the pivot fix ⬇️

✅ Alignment stick through your belt loops
✅ Second stick just outside your lead hip
✅ Keep your chest feeling “over” the ball
✅ Rotate your lead hip into the stick
✅ Turn through instead of sliding through

The goal isn’t to stop your hips.

It’s to teach them how to rotate instead of run laterally.

When the lead hip slides, your body stands up and the club gets trapped behind you.

When you rotate correctly, you create space for the arms and keep the club in front of your body.

This drill helps you:

⛳️ Maintain your tilt
⛳️ Improve pivot sequencing
⛳️ Stop the lateral hip slide
⛳️ Create room for the arms
⛳️ Shallow the club naturally
⛳️ Strike the ball with more compression

Think: “CHEST ON TOP OF THE BALL.”

Rotate around your lead side instead of sliding past it.

Better pivot → better delivery → better contact. 🔥 taken in Ballamor Golf Club by @get.golfing

The Baseball Secret to Ball Control ⬇️

Most golfers have no idea WHY their ball curves. Let’s fix that using something you already understand — baseball.

🔴 To hit a FADE:
Think about swinging down the 3rd base line toward the foul pole. That’s your swing PATH. Now open your clubface slightly to that path — the ball starts left and cuts back right. Simple.

🟢 To hit a DRAW:
Swing down the 1st base line. Close your clubface relative to that path — the ball starts right and turns back left. That’s a real, controlled draw.

Now take it to the range with this drill. 🎯

Grab two alignment discs and set them up like a gate at your ball:

**For a DRAW:**
— Place the first gate to the outside of the ball
— Place the second to the inside

This trains your path and face to work together through impact.

**For a FADE:**
— Place one disc to the outside
— Place the second to the inside (opposite orientation)

Same concept, different shape.

Save this. Practice it. Play better golf. ⛳

WANT TO PLAY BETTER TOMORROW? START HERE. ⛳️⬇️

Stop mindlessly beating balls at the range. Your practice needs a purpose.

Try this 6-part practice session to train the skills that actually lower your scores:

1. 🎯 Start Line Gate Drill
Train your clubface control by hitting through a narrow gate. Your only job: start the ball exactly where you intend.

2. 🧠 4-Foot Pressure Putting
Four putts from 4 feet. Make all four or start over. This turns basic putting into a pressure test—and teaches you to perform when it matters.

3. 🪄 Chipping Ladder
Pick 3 landing zones and work your way through them. Then reverse the ladder. You’ll quickly find out whether your distance control is actually consistent.

4. 📏 50/70/90 Wedge Matrix
Hit 5 shots at each distance. Focus on the same setup, tempo, and strike every time. The goal is predictable carry—not perfect shots.

5. 🔥 Iron Start Line + Strike
Use an alignment aid to create a clear target line. Hit 30 shots with a full reset between every ball. Quality reps > quantity.

6. 🚀 Driver Fairway Challenge
Imagine a 40-yard-wide fairway. Hit 10 drives through your full pre-shot routine. Your goal: 7/10 playable.

Do this consistently and you’re not just practicing your swing—you’re practicing how to score.

Fix Your Downswing Sequence With Yhe Chopsticks Drill 🥢⛳️⬇️

If your swing is over the top, your hips are firing too early, or your sequencing feels off, this drill makes it obvious.

Put one alignment stick through your belt loops and another across your chest. Your goal is to rotate around your spine while maintaining the proper tilts in the backswing and downswing.

🥢 At impact, the sticks should meet.

Here’s what you’ll see:
• Over the top: the upper stick misses the lower stick
• Hips spin too fast: the lower stick gets ahead of the upper stick
• Proper sequence: the sticks work together and meet at impact

This is all about learning how the hips, torso, and arms work together in the downswing instead of throwing everything at the ball at once.

Try it slowly first. Feel the rotation. Then add speed.

Better sequencing = better contact. 🔥

Save this drill and give it a try next time you practice. by @get.golfing
