Towel Drill Ball Contact

Peter Crocitto III, the Director at Keiser University Golf Coaching Center, shares a useful drill for improving wedge shots around the green, focusing on making better contact with the golf ball, especially when practicing off of mats. He introduces a simple yet effective method involving a towel placed a few inches behind the ball.

This setup provides immediate feedback on the quality of the strike: if the towel is undisturbed, it indicates a good strike; if the club hits the towel, producing a thump, it signifies that the contact was too far behind the ball. This drill aims to help golfers become better wedge players and ball strikers by offering a clear way to assess and improve their contact with the ball.
