How to Control Your Head - (Video) Lesson by Tom Stickney Top 100 Teacher Tom Stickney - A Top 100 Golf Teacher Tom Stickney – A Top 100 Golf Teacher

In this week's tip I want to talk to you about low point control and how your head influences where you hit the ground in the short game. All too often I see people go like this their head stays here and on the way down it starts to fall backwards. When it starts to fall backwards it moves your low point backwards, and we start to see shots where you had behind it or you get tired of hitting behind it and you kind of flinch and when you flinch you hit it across the green.

So in pitching when you set your head forward and you set your weight forward as such you need to stay there throughout the whole golf swing. The head can move a little bit more forward. It just can't fall backwards because as I said when it falls backward you move the low point and that's really really bad for pitching. So once we set ourselves up we're going to keep our head right where it is the whole time and when we do that we're going have a lot more success because we control where the club hits the ground and that means consistent shots around the green for you.
