This Exercise Can Add Serious Driver Distance

Marcus Bell from GRF Golf demonstrates a unique downslope exercise designed to rapidly increase driver distance. By utilizing gravity on a downhill lie, golfers learn to load the lead foot and push off the ground to create side bend and a late release, leading to higher ball speed and an improved upward attack angle.

• Practice on a severe downslope to amplify the feeling of ground reaction forces.
• Allow gravity to pull your body mass down the slope during the transition to load the lead toe.
• The 'magic move' is pushing back up the slope against the downhill force to trigger a late, powerful release.
• This drill naturally creates the trail-side bend and torso extension needed for an upward driver attack angle.
• Finish with a 'freewheeling' follow-through to ensure full momentum transfer to the ball.
