Why this drill works
The stick acts as a physical ceiling or barrier. An over-the-top slice swing is steep and will hit the stick. To miss it, you are forced to shallow the club and attack from the inside.
How to do it
- 1
Tee up a ball.
- 2
Place an alignment stick in the ground on the far side of the ball (target line), angled so it hovers directly above the ball pointing at the target.
- 3
Start with 40% speed swings.
- 4
Swing beneath the stick (from the inside) without hitting it, while focusing on turning the toe over.
- 5
Gradually increase speed to 60% and then 90% (playing speed).
