The Ultimate Pitching Drill
3. Oktober 2023
The Ultimate Pitching Drill is a short golf blog post that looks at the best drill to help improve your Pitching.
The golfing world, in my opinion, is now becoming a little too technical for the average golfer.
There are many beginners out there who seem to be getting bogged down in science.
Some simple drills can prove to be more effective than many golfers care to believe.
The Ultimate Pitching Drill
What is this Ultimate Pitching Drill?
Is it difficult to do? Will I be able to do it myself?
Tell me what expensive training aid do I need to buy to be able to practice this drill?
STOP! You are asking too many questions.
This Drill is simple to do.
All you need is a small towel, a sock or a glove. Anything that is small, light and soft that you can fit under your arm.
Step 1
Take a Wedge
Place the towel under your left armpit.
Don’t squeeze it, just gently hold it enough so that the towel doesn’t fall to the ground.
Step 2
Make a Backswing without letting the towel fall to the ground.
Remember not to squeeze the towel, just hold it gently.
Step 3
Follow Through to the finish position making sure that the towel doesn’t fall to the ground.
Repeat until you are blue in the face.
This is a fantastic drill to practice.
What the drill does is teach you that turning your body is an essential part of Pitching.
It keeps your arms in sync with your body.
Too many golfers, when Pitching, dominate the movement with their hands and arms.
They may hit the ball fat or thin and that mainly happens in a pressured situation.
If you are looking for consistency when Pitching, then give this a go.
