hey everybody Danny right here thanks
for joining us this week I asked you the
question does having the correct key
height really make a difference to the
distance you hit your driver the answer
is yes and maybe no but we're gonna
sketch that in this week's training
before we do if you're new to a channel
and this is one of your first videos
consider subscribing I release content
like this every week to help you improve
your game so does having the correct e
height make a difference to your driver
before we discuss this let's talk about
what factors are needed first of all to
launch that ball further there's a big
buzzword right now in the world of golf
which is if you want to hit it a long
way you want high launch and low spin
question is what couple of factors do
you need to try to achieve that well low
spin what we need to with the to get low
spin is about where the ball connects
with the face if you want to get the
sweet button and have that absolutely
perfect play spot to stroke the golf
ball we need it just above Center here
we don't want the ball anywhere near the
bottom it's a boy in the ball hits the
bottom of the club you get produces lots
and lots of backspin and reduces the
distance you hit the hit the shot so
that's a spin of fact that's how you get
low spin high launch well we want to
make sure that when we strike the golf
ball we strike it on the way up so we're
gonna discuss how you go about striking
the ball on the way up and how maybe you
can start to strike the sweet spot just
above Center now the question is if I
use the three T's here if I use a low T
the likelihood is it's probably gonna
get me striking the ball too close to
the bottom of the face and if I use a
higher tee I'm more likely to start to
get closer to the top part of the face
so that so the question is which tee
height would you benefit from so we
recommend ideally for the guys who are
able to get both things working if
you're able to get a upward strike using
a high tea
the chances of you getting high launched
and low-spin massively increase so let's
have a look at this in action what I've
done here I've gone to my maximum
teahype the balls forward in my stance
and my only goal here now is to simply
drive that ball up in the air to max out
this distance back here
it's max out that distance now the
problem is and you may have found this
if you use a high T some of you out
there Mir found that actually when you
use a high T you may be sky it the ball
goes up in the air and the reason being
is your angle of attack coming into the
golf ball is just too steep so here's a
problem if you have a swing that is
coming down into the golf ball here it
is too steep and you found that when you
go to a higher tee the ball just skies
up in the air then yes it makes sense
then that a loti is 40 that you need to
max out your distance with your current
swing so you'd basically go towards
let's say I've got the white one here
which is about an inch in height and
what we do is this one here you can see
is very very low I'm gonna come down on
the golf ball here I'm still going to
hit it quite high in the face which is
okay but the problem is is I just won't
get the launch I get low spin but I
don't get any launch having said all
that for you it's probably the best one
because if you go for a higher tee the
ball can cut off the top and it pops up
in the air so you will max out your
distance with your current swing with a
lower T as opposed to a higher tee now
question is do you want to max out your
potential you may be maxing out your
swing by going to a lower tee but you
want to max out your potential if you
want to max a potential what we need to
do is start to tweak a swings and move
to a higher tee and what we're gonna do
in a second I'm going to grab a nice
simple training it to help you use a
higher T so that you two
you can get high launched and low-spin
to max out your distance so for those of
you who are struggling to get in to use
a high T because you're merely coming
down a bit steep on it and therefore not
maxing out really the distance you could
be getting and the benefit of a higher T
then this drill will really really help
what I've done I put a head cover about
two and a half feet or two feet in front
of the ball what I want you to do is not
work just start to practice swinging and
allowing the head to come through but
miss the head cover on the way through
if you're coming down on the golf ball
too much you're going to start to strike
that head cover and that's going to get
the wrong launch conditions to max out
your distance also give it a helping
hand with setup make sure the bulb
stitches forward make sure your handle
is behind the ball and make sure your
head is behind the handle and then we're
going to make some swings where we swing
down and we're going to go through and
miss that head cover on the way through
let's have a look at this
backwards and forwards so does the
correct key technique I make a real
difference to your game yes it does
if you have the correct launch
conditions as well so using a higher tee
will help you hit it up in the high part
of the face as long as you've got the
upward angle you will match that to max
out your distance if you don't want to
change your swing and you are coming
down sleep on it then actually a lower T
will be the better option otherwise
you'd be skiing it all right but I hope
