Most bogey golfers think a wide takeaway is a good takeaway. It isn’t.

The scratch golfer moves the club back, up, and in all at once. The bogey golfer lets it drift outside straight away, and the rest of the swing is damage control from there.

The difference comes down to three things at the halfway point:

✅ Club moves back, up, and in simultaneously - this keeps the face controlled and sets the correct swing plane early
✅ Club stays in line with the hands at parallel - this prevents the face from fanning open before you’ve even reached the top
✅ No independent arm swing - the body and club move as one unit, which removes the need to reroute on the way down

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always starts the club outside and wonders why they can’t stop coming over the top.

Comment STRIPE below and I’ll send you my favorite ball striking drills👇

If you can control the bottom of your swing (low point), you can stripe your irons. This drill makes it so easy!

The setup is simple:

✅ Towel goes one hand width behind the ball - this gives you an immediate feedback zone so you know exactly where your club is bottoming out.
✅ Focus on missing the towel, not hitting the ball - this shifts your attention forward and naturally improves your strike without forcing it
✅ Repeat until clean contact feels like the default - the drill retrains your low point without any conscious swing change
✅ As you improve, move the towel closer to the ball

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always seems to catch it heavy with their irons.

Comment SHANK below and I’ll send you my favorite Chipping Drills for FREE 👇

Most chipping faults don’t start at impact - they start the moment the club moves inside on the backswing.

Place a wedge under your trail foot, angled outward. That one change does two things at once.

✅ It blocks the club from swinging inside on the takeaway - keeping your path on track from the start.
✅ It stops the trail knee from drifting out on the downswing - so your body can actually rotate through the ball.
✅ Better turn through impact means the face stays square longer, and your contact becomes far more predictable.

You don’t need a range session to feel this. Ten chips with the wedge under your foot and you’ll understand exactly what your body should be doing.

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always blades or chunks their chips around the green.

Comment Stripe and I’ll send you my favorite 3 ball striking drills to help you lower your scores Watch a scratch golfer and the arms stay connected and straight through the hitting zone. Watch a bogey golfer and they split apart the moment they reach the ball.

Here’s why it matters:

✅ Connected arms keep the clubface square longer - separation causes it to twist and open at the worst possible moment
✅ Staying straight through impact maintains width in the swing - this is where your power actually comes from
✅ Arms that hold their structure force a proper body rotation - separation lets the body stall and the arms take over

The difference between these two golfers often isn’t talent. It’s one habit through the impact zone.

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always wonders why their ball striking feels inconsistent despite good practice sessions.

Comment PURE below and I’ll send you the full video 👇

Most golfers are told to fire the hips - but that one cue is responsible for two of the most common ball-striking faults in the game.

When the hips spin out too early, the club either goes over the top and you slice it, or it gets stuck behind you and you push or hook it.

The fix isn’t a different hip cue. It’s a different movement entirely.

✅ Move your weight forward first - this creates the side bend and tilt your body needs automatically, without forcing it.
✅ Focus on extending or standing up through the ball - this is the movement that actually drives the rotation, so you never have to think about spinning your hips again.

When the body moves correctly, the rotation takes care of itself.

📩 Send this to your playing partner who keeps blaming their slice on their backswing.

Comment ‘Stripe’ and I’ll send you my 3 favorite ball striking drills to help you shoot lower scores 👇 The bogey golfer keeps the trail knee flexed through the follow through. The hips spin around with no upward movement, and the club gets thrown across the line - pulls and slices follow.

The scratch golfer does something different:

✅ Trail knee straightens - this drives the hips up and under the spine rather than just around it
✅ Hips tuck under the body - this creates the vertical lift that lets the spine extend naturally
✅ Spine extends through the ball - this is what keeps the club on the correct path and delivers a pure strike

One knee. Completely different outcome.

Comment ‘Practice’ below and I’ll send you my Breakthrough Practice Plan tailored to all ability levels to help you lower your scores 👇

Most bogey golfers don’t lose the shot at impact - they lose it the moment they stand up on the downswing.

A big differentiator between a bogey golfer and a scratch golfer is maintaining the inclination to the ground on the downswing.

✅ Stay in your posture - this keeps the club on the correct path and stops you flipping at the ball to compensate
✅ Avoid early extension - standing up through the shot forces your arms to reroute and kills consistent contact
✅ Think “chest down, not chest through” - this cue helps you hold your angle without freezing your rotation

If you can keep your spine angle from the top of the swing to impact, your ball striking will become noticeably more consistent.

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always seems to thin it or catch it heavy for no obvious reason.

If your bunker shots are thin or inconsistent, you’re probably entering the sand too late - this two-ball drill fixes that instantly.

Push a second ball into the sand just behind your actual ball. Now swing with the goal of hitting both.

✅ It gives you a physical target in the sand - your brain stops focusing on the ball and starts focusing on the entry point, which is where bunker shots are actually won or lost.
✅ Hitting the back ball first forces the right angle of attack - shallow or late entries simply won’t work, so the drill self-corrects your swing without overthinking it.
✅ Do this in practice and the correct feeling becomes automatic on the course - no swing thought required.

📩 Send this to your playing partner who always blades it across the green from the bunker.
