Now a lot of times with these big tall drivers you can see the balls teed up a whole bunch. Well that's great to hit the ball long way but it doesn't do a lot to control your accuracy. So if you have a very tight hole as we have right here where there's trouble right left we'll show you a simple way to do that tee the ball down a bit lower.

When you tee the ball down a little bit as you can see right here the ball is lower on the face and the ball tends to come out in a more of a penetrating type of ball flight. When you do that it's obviously going to be a little bit more accurate it's not going to go as far but it's going to be more accurate. So what I tend to do on super tight holes is tee that ball down just a little bit so maybe just a 4th of the ball is over the top of the crown of the driver and that's going to help me to squeeze that ball in the fairway and I can feel a bit more confident on when I hit my 2nd shot from in the fairway as opposed in the rocks over there.
