Kontrollera drivern som proffsen! - Fredrik Lindblom - MXPGolf.se

Hello and welcome to Henriksbygd Golf se I am here together with Fredrik Lindblom at Ingerö Golf Club Fredrik I thought I'd bring you in to discuss some different ball flights with our driver Many golfers have a special ball flight quite common I often get questions about how I control to hit for example a nail with my hammer I know you've got this under control Can you share your feelings and thoughts about controlling the ball flight with a driver Absolutely I make several adjustments to my setup and especially how high I aim the ball to hit either a fade or a draw So if I want to hit a fade I actually try to aim the ball a bit lower About where the ball is in the middle of the clubhead Maybe a bit higher than the middle What it does is help me feel that I need to hit the ball a bit harder So the attack angle will be a bit steeper It will help me get a track that is a bit more to the left Then he will put the ball into play It is still important that we keep the clubhead straight toward the target when we swing left If the clubhead is closed we hit the ball here on the left a so-called double cross as we call it So I'm still trying to aim the clubhead where I want to go Maybe I'll take a slightly open stance not too much Then I feel the ball is lower and I swing a bit more down and to the left on the ball so it fades Shall we test it I think we should try We have the data with us now so we are testing to see how the difference will be for you Okay so the ball is down the clubhead is straight where I want it Now I feel like I'm hitting the ball a bit low swinging a little to the left but keeping the clubhead straight A small wave on it A small wave comes back a bit even though the wind holds it there a bit Men it's a bit like what you said swings a little to the left pulls a little open creates that little fine thread Perfect and that's often when you see better players tour players hit a fade and a draw There's not a lot of spin on the ball it's more straight and drops to the right To still get relatively good fear in the ball and length So that one went about as far as I want to hit it If I cut too much from the ball and get too much thread the tender will become much shorter Okay shall we try pulling then We will try pulling Okay if we pull it's a bit the opposite I hit the ball higher so that half the ball is more or less above the clubhead I have a feeling I'm going to swing at the ball If I hit the ball more on the upper part the trajectory will be more from inside to outside It's hard to hit the ball when swinging to the left It's very hard then the ball has to be very far forward Instead I feel like I'm swinging outward but still the clubhead is square to the target I don't want the bat open if it swings out and to the right the ball will go way right So the ball is a bit higher I might have a little bit of a tight spot And now I feel like I should hit the ball high high And then the ball tends to have a little dip on it Exactly There I know you're not a big fan of this drilling but I think it's really nice Yes I don't like the left miss but it was really good What does it look like then Four degrees from inside The motor is at a certain angle from the previous one A little bent blade The spindle is about ten degrees to the left We get that great nice drilling break The length is still there Exactly as you describe we do get this change in both the sheet and the track that we are after Exactly I don't know if you see it there but you're looking at the attack angle in that Very much upward Can you see that there I can definitely make it there Seven degrees up on the ball almost So when I feel like I have to hit the ball I get that left hook When I hit the ball I get a slice So I focus a lot on the attack angle which makes the track go where I want Two things I think about when I hear you saying we're going to do this Fredrik and many of you can take with you right away is tha umber one the height I think it's correct to use the peg height to control the swing path lines The players I often see are actually hitting low and trying to swing high to hit this ball It just doesn't work No it's just hard Or it's a challenge Many times we see just as you describe someone trying to hit a fly He sits down and hits the ball very hard And we know from the data that it is an extremely difficult task Lift the ball swing a bit from inside the ball and we're home Perfect Fredrik thank you very much Thanks yourself
