I have a bad problem of hanging back, especially on my drives. Anyone have any tips or drills they used successfully on hanging back? If done a step drill and the Gary player walk through drill to help hit through the ball with irons, but it doesn't seem to help with my driving. I tend to end on my back foot and it's killing my driving distance.

You got our tee time booked at PB or CP on 5/27 yet?

When I'm playing golf or just watching a ceremonial tee shot, I always use an OnCore golf ball. It keeps me from hanging back [/Wayne and Gary Player]

I have the same problem. My fix (not a drill) is to start with more weight on my front foot, turn hips back rather than shift back, and start my downsizing by pushing off with the inside of my back foot. Always a struggle though.

Make sure you have a weight/pressure shift on the backswing. It's very hard to move your weight forward correctly if you don't first move it back correctly.

Are you struggling to get carry on your driver?

Maybe in trying to increase your launch angle you are hanging back to hit "up" on the ball.

More shoulder turn, keep the weight on the instep of your back foot, and finish the swing.

Might consider what loft of driver you are hitting if that is an issue.

I would hit shots with your feet together. Keeps you tight and turning, but the follow through will force your weight to your left side. Near impossible to fall to your back foot this way - you would fall over. goal is to finish with complete swings and not lose your balance

I just swing harder...............right JJ!! Power through!!!
