This REALLY IS A GENIUS DRILL and works for every single level of level of golfer. I honestly couldn’t hit driver straight until i did this. This is a different type of drill than you are used to hearing but this honestly works so well. This is a simple driver tip that works! Hit your driver straighter,longer/ further, and more importantly hit your driver consistently better with this genius drill.
This genius drill focuses on the path of the golf ball and making sure that we square of the club face. A lot of golfers do go wrong, including myself but when i started to use this drill it changed everything for me. This is why i call it the genius golf drill!

I really couldn’t hit driver straight. We have to get the driver swinging on a ark! Plus what a hole this is haha!
Great video keep the coming
Another thing you could do (if you carry alignment sticks) is figure out where those tees would go as you showed us in the video and then put the stick down and put yellow tape around the alignment stick in those spots and then another were your ball is (in the center presumably). Then, when you're out on the course on a practice round and throw down the alignment sticks (I do this on the regular), it already had those marks set up. Just set the alignment stick 2 or 3 inches behind the ball, closer to your feet and it'll help with 3 major things; alignment for setup/swing, making sure you swing far enough out (and not inside) and also gives you a visual to try and path the driver over the yellow bits at the ends.

Moe Norman never had an issue
Love your videos. Very informative and straight to the point. A lot of them Iv put too good use. Iv just developed a problem with turning my hands over too soon. Any chance of a video to show where people go wrong👍🏻👍🏻
Watch the YouTube video called F1 Carlos Sainz Jr.and Ian Poulter play around of golf..I could not his my driver until I did what he shown Carlos.apparently Sir Nick Faldo taught it to Ian.great tip…..link is what I wrote above
Great video, thanks
Excellent Lesson
Yea i was an all-conference collegiate baseball player and an all-garbage golfer. Sure you swing in an arc in baseball but theres A LOT more margin for error from the left field foul line to the right field line…..haha
Alex, great video, however I keep struggling to close the face with driver, I can't get the club to turn over after / during impact … what else can I do ?
My issue is going too left. If I think centerfield I do hit straight through my swing, and it kind of goes straight.
You can credit Colin Montgomerie for me trying to swing straight at impact 25yr ago 😅
I've watch may different you tube videos on hitting the driver but your videos are the ones that helped. Hitting move fairways with my driver and vary rarely sliciing now. I now have to learn irons and wedges and distance with them
Alex, your driver tips are single handily responsible for me hitting more fairways and lowering my score at least 5 strokes a round. Hitting from the trees is a good skill to have, one in which I’ve almost mastered, but golf is a lot more fun from the fairways!! Keep up the great content.
Is this drill for irons and woods the Same ?
Really great tip to visualise as someone who is just starting to dare to hit the big stick. Cheers
Awesome that you did some baseball swings to show your point! I often do baseball swings when getting ready to hit because it prevents my mind from trying to hit the ball – because it's not there. When I think too much about hitting the ball, my mind subconsciously makes my hands manipulate the club and I leave the face open just as you showed instead of letting the club swing through its natural arc. What shocked me to learn was that the club face will close on its own if I leave my wrists loose and let the club swing… it's counterintuitive, but the more I thought about keeping the face square at impact, the more open I left it!
Your example is kinda bad because we don’t tee the ball up middle of our stance. Since we tee the ball forward 4in. Your example the club would always swing outside in. That’s why so many golfer slice because where the ball position is. Best way to explain this you should use a hoola hoop at an angle as our plane. But you still need to point 10-15degrees to the right in order to have this “circle” swing in an arc while on another arc swing up. In 3D a driver swing is technically 2 arcs.
Love your style, mate! Always short and to the point. Keep ‘em coming!
Found this out myself whilst messing at the range one day…..just a case of finding the right ball position and……….boom
Hi Alex, love your videos and larning a lot! My golf game is improving a lot. Especially on the driving range, everything starts to fall into place and things get more consistent.
However, 2 things I’m really struggling with:
1. I can apply the swing as long as I’m relaxed and try to hit without any real power. As soon as I try a bit more, things get inaccurate. How do I gradually add some power to the shots?
2. All good on the driving range, but very often on the course, things are so much harder and still hitting shanks. Mainly because of the terrain slope or the way the ball lies, i.e. embedded into grass or rough. I notice that especially on those occasions, the backswing is interrupted by the ground and that makes it inconsistent by itself. How do you deal with that?
You just described my understanding of driver and trying to hit in a straight line which was giving me a massive slice so I'll definitely be using this video. Thanks great video as always 👍🏻
