In this instruction, golf coach Michael Kanev shares a simple tee drill designed to help golfers compress iron shots effectively. By positioning a tee 2 to 3 inches ahead of the ball, players learn to strike the ball first and hit through impact. This drill provides clear, instant visual feedback to stop hitting at the ball and start making crisp contact.

• Place a tee in the ground 2 to 3 inches directly in front of the golf ball.
• Focus on striking the ball cleanly first before making turf contact.
• Clip the forward tee out of the ground after impact to confirm proper downward attack angle.
• Use this low-maintenance drill during range sessions for instant feedback without complex swing thoughts.
