Today's tip

"A simple tip for improving your swing path is to hit balls from sidehill lies. If you tend to slice the ball, then hit shots with the ball above your feet. This will encourage a swing path that is more inside to out, which will promote a draw. If you tend to hook the ball, then hit shots with the ball below your feet to encourage more of an outside-to-in path. After practicing from sidehill lies for a while, go back to practicing from a flat lie and you will have a better sense of the club head approaching the ball from the proper path. This will help you hit straighter shots."
