Fix Your Golf Swing: Shallow Delivery Drill!

In this guide from The Art of Simple Golf, learn how to execute the Shallow Delivery Drill to eliminate overly steep downswings. By using an 8-iron and practicing half swings, golfers receive instant feedback on their attack angle to achieve cleaner contact and a penetrating ball flight.

• Use controlled half-swings with an 8-iron to develop a shallower delivery into impact.
• Avoid hitting down too steeply, which displaces the tee without clean ball contact.
• Focus on pushing the iron through the ball to create a solid, penetrating ball flight.
