Hitting the ball out of the heel

[Karl102]

Over the last few weeks I have started to hit the ball out of the heel of my driver, producing a left to right ball flight.
I confirmed this the other day by using one of those face stickers you can use. My irons seem perfectly fine. I have been on a trackman and my angle of attack is pretty much neutral, if not a little from the inside still.
A friend yesterday said this was a set up problem....
Any ideas?

Could be setup. Or quite a few other things!

In my case, it's normally caused by Early Extension (arse moving towards target line).

A quick trip to a (quick-fix style) Pro could be the best way to find out what is causing YOUR issue!

Good Luck with it though!

Weight on your toes at a address perhaps?

I know that's my issues when I start to hit the sherman's.

Must mean it's time for you to buy a new driver big man :rofl:

This happens to me when I "slide" forward with my hips rather than turning.

Can just try and borrow one of my bro's 12 drivers

Could be a hip slide or my right arm at address is fully extended.
Lesson booked this week!

Of course, you'll start hitting everything out of the middle for the next 10 days!

Stupid game!!

Simple thing to try is to address the ball slightly more towards the toe.


Many pros don't address the ball with driver right in the middle.

Zach Johnson immediately sprung to mind as an example of a toe address. Luke Donald addresses the heel.

I have had a mess around with this and it can help to move your strike location.

Same with me. More so with irons.
