STRIKE DRILL - No Lifting or Fatting, just perfect strikes with THE SHORT SHAFT DRILL

Warren Bennett from Warren Bennett Golf Academy introduces the Short Shaft Drill to eliminate thinned shots and early extension through impact. By gripping down and controlling the shaft length through the hit, golfers learn proper arm dynamics, lag, and solid contact. Practice blending this feel directly into a full swing for more consistent ball striking.

• Shorten down on the club handle through impact to stay in your posture and avoid lifting up.
• Engage the lead triceps and accommodate the trailing arm to create effective lag.
• Blend the shortened shaft drill feeling into your normal full swing for repeatable, solid strikes.
