Hitting “Up” on the ball is a well know phrase heard at every golf course or practice range. But What is it and Why is it so important? The easiest explaination is, hitting “up” on the ball creates an efficient way to increase ball speed. By hitting “up”, or swing the club head on an ascending path at impact, you create less spin on the ball. Less spin will, generally, create faster ball speeds. The faster the ball is traveling, the farther the ball can go.

This drill will help anyone create the optimal angle of attach to achieve faster ball speeds, or Longer Drives!
