Items Needed:

2- Range Balls
3- Tees (https://amzn.to/3Yz5Cph)
4- Driver
Setup:
1- Pick a target on the range.
2- Set up an alignment stick so you can make sure you’re lined up to your target.
Drill:
1-Hit 5 balls, paying attention to both starting line and curvature. Starting line tells us where the face was pointing, and curvature tells us our club path RELATIVE TO THE FACE
2- For a RH golfer, a right to left flight tells us the club path was in-to-out RELATIVE TO THE FACE. A left to right flight tells us we were out-to-in RELATIVE TO THE FACE.
3- If the ball starts right and moves more right, the first thing to do is square the clubface. Concentrate on rotating your lead wrist so that the clubface is more square at impact.
4- Likewise, if the ball starts left and moves left, we need to fix our face first. Rotate the lead hand so the thumb is more on top of the shaft than behind it before addressing the ball.
5- Once the ball is starting relatively straight, if it’s curving right, place a tee a few inchees behind the ball just outside the toe of your driver at address. Make sure not to hit that tee on your downswing.
6- If the ball curves left, place a tee a few inches behind the ball, just inside the heel of your driver at address. You’ll have to angle the tee towards you so the driver shaft doesn’t hit it.
7- If you’re missing both ways, place tees both inside the heel of the driver, and outside the toe, and concentrate on swinging through that gate.
8- Hit 5 more balls with the appropriate tees in place, noting your start direction and curvature, and make the necessary adjustments accordingly.
6- Continue the drill for 20 minutes
