Stop Topping the Ball with the 3 Tees Drill

Anne Rollo shows how the 3 tees drill eliminates topping the ball and helps your shot connection and consistency.

If you tend to top the ball, hit the ground before the ball, or just lack good connection and a consistent strike I’ve got a fantastic 3-tee drill for you.

This drill gets you extending through the shot to get good contact.

The 3 Tees Anti Topping Drill

Your topping may be caused by chicken winging which just means collapsing the leading elbow through impact. It is a really common fault and the cause of the most inconsistencies in golf. Most people do it in an attempt to try and help the ball up into the air.

  1. Anne Rollo demonstrates the chicken wing swing faultPlace 3 tees in a row about 6 inches apart, with the first tee representing where the ball would be.
  2. Swing your iron and try and clip all three tees with one swing. This encourages the extension through the ball that you need to eliminate tops and duffs.

If you tend to chicken wing it will cause you to hit the ground before the ball and that can cause you to come up at the ball so you wouldn’t be able to hit all three tees.

Also if you tend to cut across the line and pull the ball left or slice it to the right you’ll only hit the first tee.

Give the 3-tee drill a try. It will really help your contact and your consistency.

Good Luck
