I break down complex biomechanics into simple, actionable drills. These are the specific patterns I use with my students to fix contact issues and build a consistent swing.

If your contact is inconsistent, you might be losing posture during your backswing. I explain how moving up and down affects your axis and makes it difficult to return the club to the right spot.

A simple drill for slicers. Using a tee in the butt end of the club gives you instant feedback on your shaft plane, helping you correct a steep, over-the-top swing path.

There are many similarities between a baseball pitcher and an elite golfer. I break down the key movements like downswing sequence, external rotation, and supination that generate power.

The "Drag & Flick" drill is excellent for players who lose their posture and cast the club. It gives physical feedback, forcing you to use your lower body correctly and maintain wrist angles.

A closed clubface in the takeaway can cause a chain reaction of compensations. Here, I demonstrate how to achieve a neutral clubface position for a more consistent swing.

Using an alignment stick through your belt loops is a great drill for improving your swing sequence. It helps you feel the arms and club moving at the right speed relative to your body's rotation.

Are you hitting thin shots or topping your irons? This "finish line" drill helps you feel the hands leading the clubhead through impact, creating compression and eliminating the flip.

Many amateurs try to swing "in-to-out" but do it by thrusting their hips, which leads to blocks and hooks. I show the difference between the amateur move and the pro move, which involves maintaining posture.

The takeaway is one of the most critical parts of the swing. I break down the three key things to look for: hand position, clubhead position, and clubface orientation.

An alignment stick under the armpit can fix two common issues. It helps control the depth of your lead arm and ensures your hand path stays in front of your body.

About Building a Repeatable Swing: Technical Drills

Most swing faults come down to a breakdown in sequence, not a lack of effort. If you are struggling with thin shots or a consistent slice, it is almost always a result of your takeaway or posture being off-plane. These drills give you physical feedback, so you can stop guessing and start feeling the correct position of the clubhead.
