Hitting ground before ball

Guys any tips or drills for me 95% the time in hit the ground just before ball and it's killing my scores any tips or drills to help.ive watched videos n read magazine just can't seem to get it..yea I know about weight shift n hips start downswing..for sum reason it ain't happening

Cheers guys Craig

couple things you can try, 1. put a coin (1p) 6 inches in front of the ball, then make a swing trying to hit the coin don't worry about where the ball goes 2. take your set up and move the ball to in front of your left foot, your going to have to shift your weight if you stand any chance of hitting it. 3. my favourite drill is the step drill, its quite hard to perform but very effective. set up as usual, same ball position etc, then tap your right foot with your left and step into your swing, so move the left foot back and plant it before hitting the ball then try taking a step after it. Youtube it is probably clearer, golf step drill should find it. this drill ingrains rhythm, tempo, relaxation, and most importantly weight shift. and remember not to get frustrated when the ball doesn't go high and straight, drill are there to aid practice and obtain feelings, not to be used to knock it to 4 ft on a Saturday morning

Thanks alun I will try them..if I can get my ball strikng clean I will knock loads shots of ny score..and I do get frustrated lol deep breaths haha

Cheers again Craig
