Below are five keys in a drill that improves balance:
1. Address a ball as you normally would 2. Turn your knees in at address 3. Maintain the gap between your knees 4. Close your knees quickly 5. Fire the lower body toward the target
This drill encourages you to appreciate the role of the lower body in striking a golf ball—in terms of both incorporating balance in the swing and injecting a little “oomph” into the ball at impact.
Address the ball as you normally would, but turn both knees inward slightly. Sense the gap between them. As you make your swing, maintain that gap until just before impact, closing it as quickly as you can as you fire your front hip, knee, and foot through towards the swing. The resistance you feel in your lower body improves your sense of balance.
Another way of improving balance is hitting full shots from a fairway bunker—but without digging your feet into the sand. Digging your feet in stabilizes you. If you don’t dig your feet in the only way to stay in balance and hit good shots is to quiet your leg action. If you have to lift your front foot a little, do so.
Both drills improve balance and ballstriking. Both come from David Ledbetter, one of the game’s most respected golf teachers. Try both when you have a chance. The results may surprise you.
