Video Description

Most golfers make this HUGE mistake before they even swing the club… starting with the club head right behind the golf ball, use this drill and watch the impact.

Go alongside this video with a step-by-step practice plan designed to help you train muscle memory and keep hitting your driver longer, straighter, and with less effort.

In this video, I’ll show you why that setup is holding you back, how it leads to inconsistent strikes, slices, and lost distance and the simple adjustment that will instantly improve your ball striking, accuracy, and control.

I transformed Wayne’s game very, very quickly with this fix and if you’re struggling with the same issue (which is extremely common among amateur golfers), then I suggest you follow this simple tip too. It could be the key to finally stopping your slice once and for all.

Whether you’re a beginner or a low-handicap player, this one change in your setup can completely transform your golf swing.

Watch until the end to see the correct way to position the club for more consistency, straighter shots, and more confidence on the course. If you want to fix your setup, stop slicing, and start shooting lower scores, this video is for you.

    I gain more from watching people at my level(casual golfer) than watching pro's shaving a fraction off this or that.

    This man is an absolute legend and deserves all of the respect in the world! Alex is a great coach/golfer! I’m no pro (never will be) but I’m someone who has set himself a lifetime goal (well been playing golf for 3 1/2yrs now) I want to try and achieve a single figure HCP & thanks to the time Alex spent with me I’m down to 16.6 now. Thanks again Alex for your help 🫡

    Awesome. Can't wait to try this. Maybe my 300 yard drive won't go 150 straight and 150 right.

    What if your miss is left already, hooks and pulls? Can this same drill be utilized somehow to work on that issue?

    He would also do well to flare his feet. Work on his hips would you, Alex? Probably part of his fear of going miles left, but getting a proper finish has helped me massively to stop the slicing.

    This works. I had an evil slice of the tee but keeping the feel of a closed face, toe forward, has all but eliminated it…. yesterday I hit a draw!! The relief, seeing the ball landing on the fairway, is palpable.
