Tom Stickney – A Top 100 Golf Teacher
Hi I'm Tom Stickney Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor and today I want to talk to you about making sure you hit down into the golf ball. You know we hear a lot of things about hitting down through the golf ball a lot of times people tend to try to help this golf ball in the air and when they do that they get that then clicky type of feeling. The ball can obviously roll on round if you top it like I just did there or it could just be a little thin.
A good way to make sure that you hit down into that golf ball is to put another golf ball you know 6 8 inches behind the original golf ball. All you're going to do is you're going to try to hit the leading golf ball 1st without hitting this so here we go I hover club just a little bit here we go down through. When we make that motion it will downward through type of motion missing this ball behind the original golf ball you're going to find that you're the drive the club into the ground it's going to be more solid it's going to be more compressed and it's going to go a lot further. So hit down through it and you'll have a heck of a lot more fun out there playing golf.
