What if the secret to hitting your driver straighter is actually LESS rotation? I’ve been exploring different ways to tame my driver, and one of the best results I’m seeing comes from keeping my trail foot planted through impact. Years ago, I made a video about Ben Hogan’s A-Frame... swing, and I’ve found myself coming back to some of those same principles. By keeping my trail foot down longer, I limit how much my lower body can rotate through impact—and for me, that makes the motion feel simpler, more controlled, and much more repeatable. Sometimes the search for a better swing takes you right back to ideas you explored years ago. Follow along for more of my swing evolution, and go to to learn more about my instruction.

If you tend to get stuck or get quick with your hips this helps a lot. It’s a feeling I focus on when I’m hitting the ball well. I tend to get stuck, but I find keeping my back foot down thru the shot helps me stay in posture and cover the ball well

There you go

Amateurs need to stop influencing other golfers. As an amateur, you are not qualified to do so And if you’re making any money off of these videos That makes you a pro. So stop making videos You’re wrong

Sorry, bud. I’m a teaching professional. Been teaching for over e decade. And, I’m better than 90% of them out there.

Little Mo Norman in that swing

For sure

I sometimes feel the whip in my driver, the ball flies. I honestly don't know how I do it

Finding that consistently is the secret.

But have you been studying Moe too?

Yes. My YouTube video this week is about Moe.

I really look forward to that. My buddies will want to see it. I have friends who played with Moe here in Canada and at Royal Oaks in Florida. Another friend caddied for him and had to chase him for the caddy fees lol.

He was amazing!

@GolfMulligan Christo, is it a scientific fact that the wider the arc is for the backswing, then obviously the nice clean lines downswing, is how the ball goes further? The width of arc really matters? (I understand all the other major factors, but I want to discuss the width of backswing arc)

@GolfMulligan I’d say all long drive pros have a wider arc

Look for older videos of Moe. His swing evolved. Big grip changes. Hated slow play. Would lie down on fairways waiting. That is why he had trouble on the greens. No patience.

Definitely trying that on the range next week.

Someday they’ll learn the rear leg is the driver not the pelvis.
