Summer 2004

A number of my customers give me input throughout the day as they finish their round of golf. The number one complaint I here is that they are losing distance because of the wetter ground conditions. Here is a quick drill to help you gain a little distance by shallowing out your downswing.

1. Take your normal stance and position the golf ball opposite your left big toe.
2. Position the club opposite your right big toe and rest it on the ground.
3. Watch the ball and take your normal swing.

This tip is designed to take a swing that is too steep and make it more rounded at the bottom. Remember that your swing should feel like a big wide "U" not a narrow "V". Good luck and remember to visit www.bobschade.com for more in depth swing analysis.
