How to Hit the Ball Straight

  • Achieving a Straight Shot: A straight shot requires a neutral path and a square face, but this demands perfect timing and fundamentals​.
  • Key Tips:
    • Magnetic Alignment Stick: Using a device like this helps ensure the clubface is square at impact​.
    • 3:1 Tempo: Correct tempo is crucial. Many golfers either rush or slow their swing, affecting impact timing​.
    • Adjust Lie Angles: Ensuring your irons are fitted correctly for your swing can greatly aid in hitting straight shots​.
