  • trouble with the tee

    i have one eye and have played golf for about ten years . love the game i am tall 6' 8" and weigh around 300. this year i started topping any teed ball , i hit from the ground no problem but put a ball on the tee and it gets topped 90 % of the time same club on the ground it gets hit . i have seen to pga professionals , read on internet , and at a loss to fix it . my vision was checked i am fine there . the main problem is coming overe the top and improper weight shift but it occurs only on the tee ball . any suggestions ?

    Re: trouble with the tee

    A simple fix would be to set up making sure your right shoulder is lower than the left and do not move off the ball on backswing, stay centered and pivot your upper half against a stable lower half with NO Swaying
    Also, check your ball position, should be off left armpit

        That is great advice, staying centered without sway is the cornerstone to a stable and repeatable swing.

        As a drill to ingrain the feeling hit some balls with a mid iron while your feet are together or your right foot is pulled back directly behind your left, this does not allow you to sway without falling over and will create some great ball contact. Transfer the feeling of being centered to your full swing.
