Last month I gave you a tip to increase your distance. This month’s tip will help you keep the ball in the fairway as well as maintaining the distance you gained last month. The most important factor in creating accuracy is finding the shallowest path to the ball. Most of you approach the ball from an angle that is very steep. This steep angle is the biggest cause of your inconsistency. Practice the drill on the range or the golf course and you will create the angle you need to play better golf.

1. Take your normal stance with the ball positioned off your left big toe.
2. Slowly draw the club back and rest it on the ground opposite your right big toe and stop.
3. Look at the ball and make your normal swing from that point.
4. Continue this procedure for about 20 to 30 swings and then try a couple of normal swings.
If you notice your ball flight flattening you know you are on the right track. If you take a little time to practice this technique on the range you will increase your potential for greater accuracy and therefore an easier way to score better.
