An Attempt to Hit the White Ball Straight

Scottie Scheffler Footwork on Driver Swing

After his win at the Dell Match Play Championships in Austin, Texas, Scottie Scheffler moved to #1 in the Official World Golf Rankings. After getting picked to the Whistling Straits Ryder Cup without a single victory, he has been on a tear. He has won 3 of his last 5 tournaments and is the talk of the golf world heading into the 2022 Masters. Some would argue that his pairing with Bryson DeChambeau was what turned his game around. Honestly, how difficult can a final round be after having to deal with Bryson in Match Play. Scottie’s footwork with his driver is still quite unique. Read below to understand why he does this and how he generates power with the driver.

If you’ve watched PGA Tour golf in August 2020 you have seen Scottie Scheffler jumping all over the place with his driver swing. He dropped a 59 on the scorecard at the second round of the Northern Trust and was in the final pairing in the last round of the PGA Championship. The thing most people notice are his very active feet with his driver swing. Here is what his footwork looks like on his driver or 3 wood swing:

Why Do I Hit It Off the Toe with My Irons?

Time and again amateur golfers walk off the 18th hole or driving range looking at the ball striking of their irons and see it is out on the toe. While they may think, “this is much better than off the heel” because they don’t want to shank it, they often wonder just how much further they would hit it if they struck the sweet spot instead of out near the toe. So, why do you always hit it off the toe?

Jordan Spieth Soft Bent Left Elbow Practice Swing

Jordan Spieth has been woking with a swing coach expert in 2021. I won’t name the coach but let’s just say he created Tiger Woods’ greatest golf swing while he was holding the Tiger Slam. One thing that this particular golf swing coach teaches is a rotational and core golf swing; not an armsy golf swing. What amateurs do not realize is the only way to not have an armsy swing is to have soft arms. The left elbow actually falls inside towards the belly button throughout the backswing. When really perfecting this swing most people are going to need a soft left elbow at the top of the swing.

Does the Austin, Texas Drought Affect Golf Course Conditions?

It is had to argue that Austin, Texas is one of the “hottest” places to move in the United States in 2021. Literally and figuratively. With Apple, Tesla and a number of other tech companies having headquarters in Austin, there are plenty of high paying jobs. Those that are moving to Austin will likely look for private country club and golf club information. What they will likely find out is the weather isn’t exactly ideal for golf 12 months out of the year.
