If you’re already familiar with the RotaryConnect, you’ve likely been using it for both your legs and arms in the full swing. Today we’re going to show you how to apply it to your chipping stroke as well. If you don’t own a RotaryConnect yet, we highly recommend picking one up. Unlike most training…

One of the most effective drills we’ve ever encountered for short game distance control is the Ladder Drill. This simple exercise can produce remarkable improvement in a surprisingly short time. We’ve worked with beginning golfers who started out hitting chips over the green, short of the green,…

The foundation of great chipping technique starts with a perfect setup. If you haven’t mastered the chipping setup yet, go back and work through that lesson thoroughly before continuing here. Your setup must be correct before working on technique — because even perfect mechanics can’t compensate…

To hit a chip shot, you need to put the ball way back in your stance, shift your weight left, really lean the club shaft forward, and then try to pull the club through the ball. If this describes your current technique, you’re always going to struggle with your chip shots. You’re going to hit them…

As you develop a deeper understanding of the need to strengthen the core area for a powerful rotary swing, something that absolutely cannot be overlooked is keeping this region flexible and supple. We’re engaging and strengthening some extremely powerful core muscles. It’s critical that they…

It’s extremely common for golfers working on a rotary swing to lose their spine angle through impact. No matter how diligently they practice, they keep coming out of the shot and struggle to make solid, consistent contact. For at least half the golfers I work with, the problem isn’t technique at…

If short, weak, and inconsistent shots plague your game, there’s a strong chance you’re coming over the top and producing a slice. The good news? Fixing an over-the-top swing path has very little to do with your age or athleticism. You simply need to identify the root cause and follow a clear game…

Modern driver head design is an exact science, with every major manufacturer leveraging powerful CAD software to engineer performance down to the millimeter. Using these sophisticated tools, the center of gravity (COG) can be repositioned — up, down, forward, or back — to dramatically alter how a…

Is Your Golf Grip Costing You Distance? As you’ve likely seen, golf students have been picking up serious distance through unique driver fittings that combine a golf lesson and fitting with technology to help golfers gain 30+ yards in a single session. One of the critical discoveries during these…

It’s time to discuss backspin and how it relates to bombing your driver. Spin is one of the most critical variables in getting a properly fit driver and extracting maximum distance from your swing. We’ll also examine the nuts and bolts of the factors that directly influence spin rate — and how…

Launch Angle — What Is It and Why Does It Matter? When it comes to the science of longer drives, few variables have as dramatic an impact on overall distance as launch angle. Simply put, the launch angle (LA) is the angle at which the ball takes flight relative to the ground. It is NOT simply the…
