Let’s revisit the coin drill shall we..

James Ridyard demonstrates the 'Coin Drill,' a simple yet effective method to improve low point control and ball-striking consistency. By focusing on brushing a coin with the sole of a wedge, golfers can refine their impact position without overthinking complex technical mechanics.

• Place a coin on the ground and practice brushing its top with a wedge.
• Focus on the feeling of 'brushing' the surface rather than 'chipping' or digging.
• Practice this 10 times in a row to significantly improve low point control.
• Most poor contact is a result of poor low point control rather than just swing technique.
