Try this transition drill on the range or at the gym to add 20 more yards to your driver. Adam explains how you can take a weighted ball and hold it close to your chest. Make a backswing motion holding the ball and turn through like you are hitting a golf shot. Throw the ball down on the ground to mimic your downswing, trying to land the ball between your feet.

We are all either improving or doing the other. What are you going to do today?! Adam and I are hunkering down only 1 hour from Scottsdale. We found a killer place – Canyon Lake! I had acupuncture and saw a doggy chiropractor today. Both Adam and I are healing this off season. We have been exploring area lakes, rivers and of course the mountains and beautiful Sedona.
