As I've already mentioned, a sweeping action through impact is the key to success with your fairway woods. Another good drill designed to help you with this is to start the swing with the clubhead a couple of inches away from the ball as shown. From this position, make a normal swing. You should start to gain a feel for the perfect shallow angle of attack. I like my pupils to feel as if they are collecting the ball rather than hitting at it – this drill will help you find that sensation.
