Comment TOP To Improve Your LAID OFF Top Of Swing Position To Stop SLICING!
In this short tutorial, Bob Menzies demonstrates a simple wall drill designed to correct a 'laid off' backswing. By using a wall to guide the club into a slightly 'across the line' position at the top, golfers can more easily shallow the club during the downswing to eliminate slices and start hitting draws.
A laid off position at the top often leads to the shaft pitching forward and causing an outside-in slice.
Practicing with your head against a wall provides a physical reference point for the correct backswing depth.
The goal of this drill is to feel 'across the line' at the top to allow for better shallowing in the downswing.
Attacking the ball from the inside of the target line is the key to transforming a slice into a draw.
