I do have a drill! I practice it all the time. However, Rory does a better job of explaining it than I would… ▶ this video This helps me keep the club out in “front” of me more. Rory alludes to this feeling as well.

I've been there. I broke my hand in 2018, and AGAIN in 2019, and it took me up until about 6 months ago to really feel comfortable with the driver again. I could hit a 5w from the teebox between 240-250, and I just let that be my game as a 10hcp. I wasn't playing a whole lot in 20-21, but got back into it with a vengeance at end of COVID. My issue was a massive right block off the planet, just could not get the club …

Really nice swing! I'd recommend Rory's split hand drill. Not only will it groove your good position, it will help with getting your clubhead speed up. Best of luck. ▶ this video

u/Censoredplebian 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Someone please give me drills to stop being so narrow and cramped 😩”
It’s hard with the camera angle as I’m not sure if you’re dead on your 6: Even so it looks like your weight is shifting right on the take back which will give you the feeling that you’re on top of the ball. The address looks fine, you can bring your hands up at address and lock that feeling in and that will keep your spine angle more level which will give you more balance. Film yourself to look in the level you want …

u/Degolfer03 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Can’t hit driver ($500 reward)”
So, your swing isn’t that bad, but it’s hard to hit a ball you can’t see. Before you take the club away, you are turning your head away and looking at your club 3/4 of the way in your back swing. On the way down, you’re not holding the angle of the club and are casting on the way down. You do a good job of keeping your hands above your feet at the top of your swing, so that’s good. I’d try to not swing so deep in …

u/wookie_nuts 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Day 3 of using Reddit to fix 15 years of lesson-less golf.”
You need to understand the fundamental concept of a golf swing, it appears as though you are trying to stay as still as humanly possible and swing the club using only your arms and hands. I mean no offense, but you’ll never come close where you are now. Take a club, or a broomstick or similar, put your lead hand on it, palm down, trail hand palm up, like you’re going to show off your Bo staff skills. Your hands …
