Face Angle Control Drill

Launch Monitor intermediate

To improve consistent control of the clubface angle at impact, reducing directional misses and improving shot accuracy.

Possible Root Cause

Inconsistent clubface angle at impact causing wide directional variation and misses to both left and right.

Equipment Needed

Golf clubs, impact tape or spray, alignment sticks, mirror or video to observe face angle.

Steps

  • Set up a practice station with alignment sticks to create a target line.
  • Use impact tape or spray on the clubface to get feedback on where you hit the ball on the face.
  • Focus on making slow, controlled swings, checking the face angle each time with a mirror or video.
  • Hit shots aiming to keep the face angle within ±3° of the target line consistently.
  • Use feedback from impact tape and monitor ball flight direction to correlate face angle control with shot dispersion.

Success Metrics

  • Face angle variability at impact is reduced to within ±3° on 80% or more of shots.
  • Directional misses decrease, with shots landing closer to the target line consistently.
  • Impact markings show centered strikes with consistent face orientation.

Expected Improvement

Improved accuracy and tighter dispersion due to better directional control of the ball.

Path Consistency Swing Drill

Launch Monitor intermediate

To develop a more consistent club path, reducing excessive leftward swings and variability that cause curved, inaccurate shots.

Possible Root Cause

Swing path swings excessively left and varies widely, causing inconsistent ball flight and side spin.

Equipment Needed

Alignment rods, launch monitor, video recording device.

Steps

  • Set up alignment rods on either side of the ball to guide your swing path.
  • Begin with slow, purposeful swings focusing on swinging down the target line rather than left or right.
  • Record swings with a camera from behind and face-on to analyze path.
  • Gradually increase swing speed while maintaining the desired path consistency.
  • Track club path data on launch monitor and adjust swing to reduce leftward path (negative angles).

Success Metrics

  • Club path averages closer to 0° with less than ±5° variability.
  • Reduced shots with extreme negative path angles (less than -10°).
  • Noticeable reduction of slice or hook curvature on shot patterns.

Expected Improvement

Straighter shots with reduced side spin and improved accuracy.

Launch and Spin Control Setup Drill

Launch Monitor beginner

To stabilize launch angle and spin rates by improving pre-shot setup and consistent strike quality.

Possible Root Cause

Inconsistent setup and angle of attack leading to variable launch conditions and erratic spin behavior.

Equipment Needed

Launch monitor, tees, markers for ball position.

Steps

  • Set up for each shot with specific attention to ball position and posture to maintain a consistent angle of attack.
  • Use a tee or marker to check consistent ball position relative to stance.
  • Practice half and three-quarter swings focusing on consistent contact and controlled tempo.
  • Monitor launch angle and spin rates on launch monitor after each shot.
  • Make small adjustments to setup until launch angles stay within 12°-18° and spin rates remain stable.

Success Metrics

  • Launch angle remains consistently within 12° to 18° for most shots.
  • Backspin and side spin rates show reduced variability compared to baseline.
  • Distance dispersion improves due to more stable launch conditions.

Expected Improvement

More predictable ball flight trajectories and improved distance control.
