Reno, The French Golf Coach, explains why many golfers struggle with the driver by trying to use force instead of flow. He demonstrates how to master driver consistency through the 'Chip Drive' and one-handed swing drills, emphasizing that rhythm and a square clubface are the foundations of control. The lesson focuses on accepting your natural ball flight and gradually increasing energy once contact and timing are established.
Consistency must always come before power when hitting the driver.
A square clubface is relative to your body rotation, not just the target line.
The 'Chip Drive' (half-swings at 50% energy) is the best way to educate your coordination and contact.
Don't fight your natural shot shape; use your grip to nudge the ball into a 'fade family' or 'draw family' rather than changing your swing mechanics.
Only increase energy (from 60% to 90%) once you feel comfortable with your rhythm and contact.
