Losing distance off the tee? Discover 3 common swing faults and how GOLFTEC's tech-driven lessons can help you add power and consistency.
Mastering hip sway could be the fix you need. In this edition of Fix My Fault, GOLFTEC Coach Tim Sam breaks down how proper hip movement directly impacts distance control and low point consistency—key traits that separate amateurs from pros.
Lead elbow flex refers to the bend in your lead (front) elbow during the golf swing. More flex usually means more inconsistency—causing fat or thin shots. Better players maintain a straighter lead arm by pushing their arms outward throughout the swing, rather than pulling them in toward the body.
Why do some mishits still find the fairway? Thank bulge and roll—curved clubface tech that corrects off-center hits using gear effect. It’s one of the many ways your driver helps you hit it straighter. Want more consistency? Get custom fit at GOLFTEC.
Lie angle might sound technical, but it plays a huge role in shot accuracy. If it’s off, your clubface points left or right of the target—even on a good swing. In this video, GOLFTEC pros break down why proper club fitting, especially lie angle, is essential for hitting straighter shots. Don’t guess—get fit.
Struggling with awkward posture or slicing? Fix your address position by sliding your hips slightly toward the target. This small tweak helps balance your shoulders, promotes an inside-out swing path, and improves ball striking. Try it in practice swings to feel the difference.
