2 ways to compress golf balls and hit more crispy iron lenses

Welcome to play Smart, a regular Golf.com game improvement column that will help you become a smarter and better golfer.

When you see a great ball shooter hitting their irons, you will notice that they almost always play boating. This is because they are hitting down On the ball, this is the key to solid contact.

Hitting is the product of proper low point control, which is crucial if you want to be a solid ball hitter. If you can’t hit the ball and be a divorcee, you have little chance of becoming a great Ironman.

When your collision comes, you are compression The ball helps to generate more ball speed and rotation. In turn, you can get higher, go further and hit the ball further – all of which is essential to attacking a tough golf course.

So, how does this compression happen? Golf’s top 100 teacher Kevin Sprecher has more in the video below.

2 ways to compress balls

If you want to compress the ball, two things have to happen during the swing. First, you have to tilt the forward axis.

“You stand out when the axial tilts forward,” Sprecher said. “And, when you apply less lofts to the ball, you compress it even more.”

Another way you can compress the ball by having one is down The angle of attack at the impact. This negative attack angle (i.e. hitting the ball) will help you get your first contact.

“So the combination of axial tilt and attack angle can really make you compress the ball more,” he said. “In fact, if you compress it better, you can actually swing slowly.”

A great way to rehearse this feeling is to sit in front of the mirror and do some exercises. But when you do, stop your own impact immediately and note the position of your hand related to the club’s head. You want to see the hand in front of the club head, which will tilt the front axle and negative attack angle.

Also, try grabbing a hit bag (or something like that) and do some swing. So you want to tilt the axially forward and make an impact with a bag in front of the club head. The good feeling of achieving this is working hard to spin your body and extend your arms completely at the bottom of the swing arc.

“If I let those two things happen, then I can get the attack angle and the forward axis tilt to compress the ball,” Sprecher said.

Once you have mastered these two things, you can compress the ball and hit the crispy shot with your iron.
