I needed a new term for a client I had today.
He was so locked up with all the restrict hip turn, hold lag, swing to right field stuff.
He didn’t just shank. He hit the ball so far in the heel, he hit the ball dead off the shaft and the ball went along the ground.
Even with a high lofted wedge.
Shaft bowling.
PS-I combined the no turn cast drill with the miss the ball drill and by the time the lesson was over, he was hitting the ball quite nicely with only an occasional shaft bowl.
He thought the term was appropriate.
I’m surprised he hasn’t done club head bowling, as in the ball snapping the shaft and the club head trundles down the fairway.
