🚨DO NOT BE SCARED OF BUNKERS🚨

In the end there’s a lot of similarities between bunker shots and any other type of shot; if you can control where the club bottoms out then you’re most of the way there!

Try this drill next time you practice

Some low point work when chipping. Thin shots to crisp strikes. Plenty of check on landing 🙌🏻

🚨How to SAVE shots from the trees🚨

A tour pro makes bogey around 50% of the time after driving the ball into the woods.

You are not a tour pro………

There’s not enough reward in trying to hit through a gap the width of your new slim 50 inch tv.

Also the emotional damage done when you inevitably hit the tree full on is just as bad as the double bogey (or worse) that you make afterwards.

Take your medicine, chip it back into play and try to make a par from the fairway

🚨How to increase your speed🚨

I’ve never been a power hitter (nor have I ever tried to be). However, this drill really helped me to increase my swing speed from low 100’s to 112 at course speed.

When the body stops rotating the arms/wrists/clubhead fire. Much like when you slam your car brakes on and anything on the back seat flies forward.

Give this drill a go next time you head to the range

Send to your buddy who can’t hit it past you.

Love this move from note the divot on the target side of the line 🙌🏻

🚨How to hole more short putts🚨

We all know the ones. The short putts you know you should hole every time. But sometimes nerves get the better of you and you don’t hit it with any conviction….. it breaks/bobbles….. missed!

The bell drill gives a great visual for you to ensure the ball goes in with a little speed and doesn’t deviate offline due to a lack of pace.

⛳️ The drill is simple. Put a tee behind the hole and hang your keys or something similar over edge, meaning the ball hits it and makes a “bell” sound. The point is to get used to hitting the ball with enough pace to hit the back of the hole and not just about drop in on its last legs.
