- After a good warm up, perform practice swings on front leg without a ball, ticking the top of the golf tee
- Back foot should be dropped back behind and can be used for balance like in the photo
- Check ball position, it should be directly in line with front foot
- Swing 50% in order to keep your stability and balance
- Hold your finish in balance until the ball lands
Although this drill may be difficult at the start, with a little practice you will see dramatic results. Don’t be afraid to try this drill with your 3 wood at first since the loft of a 3 wood will be easier to control. The one legged drill will improve your core stability throughout the swing and will also increase your hand speed at impact. When my students perform this drill they are amazed that their easy swing on one foot goes farther than their normal swing on both feet.
Add this drill into your practice routine and you will soon see more fairways and be 20 yards past your playing partners!
