How to hit a Driver Right on the nose!

by Brian Manzella

1. Set-up with the ball off your left heel and the ball off the TOE of the club

2. Set-up with your head behind the ball

3. Set-up with your right foot pulled back slightly from the target line

4. Set-up with your right shoulder AWAY form the ball (without closing your shoulders)

5. Set-up with your belt buckle pointed to the right of the clubhead

6. Swing the club back slight to the inside

7. BURY your right shoulder on the backswing

8. From the top make sure you keep your tailbone ahead of your neckbone

9. Swing "under the stick"

10. Hit PAST your head

11. At impact get your left shoulder and left hip as far away the ball as you can

Do you hit an iron the same way?

Is the purpose of #11 to "wallop with the pivot" and, if so, is that to avoid the clubhead overtaking the club handle before impact? Could this move cause a spinout?

I need to know one thing

Where is your wieght as you pivot left on this?
I do argee with the above post, right on the spot to hit the ball far.
I had a guy one time who, once he got his foot points it was not a problem.

Of course we are not looking at pics? Do you have any at impact, because the path is already known?





May the course be with you,
Dana
