How to Hit Golf Ball First Then the Ground (PERFECT contact every time!)

How to hit the golf ball and then the ground with your irons. My top tips and drills to improve your strike contact and stop fatting and stop chunking the golf ball!

👋 Thanks for watching! Make sure to check out…

🔥 My awesome partners (and our most recent vids)…

🤓 And more info on the equipment I’m using…

In this video, I give my number one golf tip to strike your irons pure and stop hitting behind the golf ball. Use this tip to stop blading and stop chunking your chip shots, and lower your scores.

Thanks for this 👍.
I figured out, tail end of last year, that if I focus on the front edge of the ball at address instead of the back of the ball, I was more consistently getting that ball/turf strike. Without knowing it, your video might just have explained why it was working. I've a high handicap and really appreciate these insights.

Keep these coming, Pete. This is when you are at your very best and why I first starting watching your channel many moons ago!

One of the best swing drills without the long winded explanations yet! Awesome stuff Peter keep them coming!!

My biggest struggle is rushing the down swing, a video on this would be a huge help 💪🏼

[fizzzle]

What a great drill. So simple and effective. It really helps you feel the shift over the ball.

[HillbillyJedi]

Never had anyone explain it like this so I will certainly give it a try. Thank you Pete! If you have any tips on the transition from back swing to down swing I'd love to hear them. Have fun!

[mikegladson]

that is one of the best drills I've ever seen! Thanks so much. I have a tendency to sway in my swing.

[garyhovey]

Well done! I’ve been off golf for two weeks and heading back to practice tomorrow. I’ll definitely use this drill to get back to flush

From a prolific chunker, who knew what was wrong and tried all sorts of
Thank you for this drill.

It has really given me the consistency I was looking for.

I added about 15 to 20 yards as well, but really all I wanted was to eliminate chunking.
The fact I can do this before the shot, on the course, is a gift.
Taking the 30 seconds to do this, clam down and get that feeling in my legs and hips, priceless.

Great video Pete! I struggle with alignment, mainly making sure face is set up to target line. Any drills super helpful. Putting this stands out alot I think I'm at the hole but open a bit.

[mraymer]

for sure struggling with my irons and my game around the green. hopefully this will help with my ball contact. thanks Pete!

[gregodonovan]

I've recently discovered how to do this myself and wow... when you compress that shot at impact, boy does it feel silky smooth.

[stuartstone]

Loving that advice Pete, as if been thinning my irons for the last week helped so much 👍

[jeffsimic]

Great video! Hadn't seen the hands together/pointing in front of the ball before. Will definitely be using this. I struggle with 3/5 woods off the deck/fairway so would love to see a deep dive into those mechanics.

[CorekBleedingHollow]

Interesting. Maybe this is finally the video that will help me actually hit the ball first.

[calvinh]

I don't think I've ever heard of the shift at the top of the swing. That makes more sense than shifting sliding on the down. Thanks!

[Sytagzi]

Thanks again for a great drill Peter! I personally struggled at first to keep my hands after the ball at impact. Now that I correct for it, my ball flight changed into a consistent draw, probably because I now close the clubface. Could you perhaps show some tips or drills to release the wrists during the through-swing?

[MellowsGolf]

Fair play for the birdie on the insta live 👏🏻

[jackblackbourn]

Great video you bloody ledge. Struggled getting back into golf after an operation that’s messed everything up but getting there slowly with the help of these

[dylanoakley]

I'm really struggling with distance control with pitches from under 50 yards and chips near the green :)
