Ever notice how PGA Tour pros take razor-thin divots in front of the ball? That’s no accident — it’s a direct result of a precise, descending angle of attack at impact.
That’s exactly what you want for pure ball compression.
This video focuses on how your angle of attack affects compression. An AI swing analyzer can show you whether you’re striking down on the ball correctly or whether your low point is arriving too early.

Learn how to hit the ball with a slightly descending angle of attack to stop chunking the ball or hitting it thin — two of the most common faults that rob you of both distance and accuracy. Elite players consistently achieve a negative angle of attack with their irons, producing crisp, compressed iron shots with a ball-first strike.
After that, you’ll want to watch the rest of this series, which literally covers everything you need to know about creating ideal contact. Practice your impact position with the GOAT Drill system.
