How to hit down on the ball & get check, with golf dad ⛳️ #golf #golftips

In this tip from Golf With Anna, her golf dad demonstrates a practical obstacle drill to help strike down on the ball and generate spin control. By placing two balls one grip length behind the target ball, setting an upright shaft, and shifting weight to the lead side, golfers learn to hit the ball first and take a divot after impact.

• Place two golf balls about one grip length behind your target ball to act as an obstacle against fat shots.
• Set up with the club shaft upright and position more weight onto your lead side.
• Make a strike focusing on missing the two rear obstacle balls to ensure a downward attack angle.
• Hitting the ball cleanly before taking a divot after impact increases compression and generates check spin.
