SM Golf Coaching demonstrates the Step Drill to help golfers increase their driver distance. By timing a forward step with the lead foot during the transition, players can significantly improve weight transfer and clubhead speed.
Start your setup with feet closer together than normal or touching.
Initiate a forward step with your lead foot just before the backswing is completed.
Ensure the lead foot is planted firmly before the club enters the impact zone.
Focus on the synchronization of the step to create dynamic ground force and speed.
