How to Shallow Your Driver Without Forcing It

Clay Ballard from Top Speed Golf demonstrates a 3-step process to eliminate missing to the right with the driver. By swinging inside-to-out, flattening the lead wrist early in the downswing, and fully releasing the clubface through impact, golfers can eliminate slices and create a reliable draw.

• Swing from inside to outside the target line to impart draw spin on the golf ball.
• Ensure the lead wrist is flat by the time hands reach shoulder height in the downswing to square the clubface.
• Allow the clubhead to fully release through impact, feeling like you are shaking someone's hand past impact.
• Avoid holding the face open or raising the handle through the hitting zone.
