The EASIEST Way To Hit Your Fairway Woods Consistently
PGA Professional Georgia Ball shares three essential tips to master hitting fairway woods consistently off the turf. The lesson covers optimal ball position, maintaining sternum stability to avoid swaying, and using the 'Tee Drill' to ensure a clean sweeping strike for better height and accuracy.
Place the ball just left of center, similar to a mid-iron rather than a driver, to avoid hitting up too much.
Ensure your hands hang straight down underneath your chin at setup to allow for a free body rotation.
Keep your sternum over the ball during the swing to prevent lateral swaying and maintain power.
Focus on a 'sweeping' motion rather than a steep downward strike to utilize the fairway wood's low-profile design.
Practice hitting the ball first and then the ground using a tee placed just in front of the ball as a visual target.
