Martin Hall went to Scotland, simply to hit this shot! I'm sure you've all heard a way to hit a stinger but it is Martin's drill I need you to see.
Ball within the center of your stance, maintain your weight for your lead foot, swing easy into the wind and take a mild divot -- you understand the ones basics. (And even though he did not mention it, Martin shortened his followthrough as properly.) But how do you take that shallow divot that keeps the trajectory down?
Enter what I'm calling the 'drag drill'.
Place the clubhead on the floor close to your trail foot. As you turn via the shot, drag it along the floor till the clubhead is despite the ball... Then sense as in case you're turning and lifting your lead shoulder concurrently on the way to get the clubhead off of the ground. That's the drill.
I know it sounds like a strange move but you already know this move by another name. This is what happens when you use the ground . Yes indeed! As you contact the ball you thrust slightly upward while your shoulders are finishing their turn through the ball. That's what allows you to avoid that deep divot while creating a low swing path. That's what keeps the ball's trajectory down.
And if you pay attention to the pronounces at all, you know that the coolest ballstrikers manipulate their trajectory and attempt to keep it pretty low most of the time, especially with their quick irons and wedges.
So Martin's drill have to help enhance how solidly you hit your regular shots as nicely. A drill that facilitates your everyday shots AND enables you play those complex hassle shots as properly? Priceless!
