Celebrate the nail. Hit it again.
Too much of that feeling, then fix it. Too much of that feeling, then adjust again.
The end result of professionalism?
“You're going to start to get that tour-level pressure,” Cameron McCormick said.
GOLF'S BEST Teacher was speaking in a video recently posted to his Instagram page – which you can watch in full here – and the topic is popular with players. Press the golf ball, after all, and open up brilliant shots.
But how?
Over the course of the 25-second video, McCormick demonstrated the drill. He lined up three sheets about six inches apart, each one almost filling the floor at about 11 o'clock. That's the nail, he said.
The clubface acts like a hammer.
“And we're going to drive, very short swing, down the golf ball,” McCormick said in the video as he did so on the ball.
He moved on to the second ball.
“To meet the long swing,” McCormick said in the video as he hit, “coming down the golf ball.”
He moved on to the third ball.
“Coming into a full swing,” McCormick said as he hit again, “coming off the golf ball.
“You're going to start to get that compression of the tour rate.”
McCormick's key was the “bottom-up” movement. He wanted to drive a nail. Notably, the author of this story, who suffers from depression, tried the exercise machine – and it takes a while to get the hang of it, but the feeling is good.

And in McCormick's post there were a series of questions, and we'll share them here, if you have similar questions:
One commentator asked: “What if a player misses well when he 'drives a nail into the ground; but not when they choose it clean?”
McCormick replied: “Then pick it clean.”
Asked one commenter “Should this promote a draw shot shape? Or do you mean it?”
McCormick replied: “Or, as everything is possible even if it is a powerful loft.”
Asked one reviewer: “Does the shaft lean more at address when the club's back is toward the front waist?”
McCormick replied: “I would say yes”
Another commenter asked: “I know it's a funny question… but is it possible to have a shaft that leans too much? I think when I play the course, my hands go crazy forward. “
McCormick replied: “Yes, it's possible but not impossible.”
