If you’re like me you probably considered foam golf balls something without much value for serious golfers.

I was WRONG 🛑

Ready to learn how to make DRAMATIC swing changes. Watch this👇

📄 Foam Golf Ball – Swing change practice list

Making big technique changes is HARD.

​Dr Luke Benoit has really put together an effective method that unlocks how to make big changes and gives a step by step approach on how anyone can do it!

🎯 Key Training Insights:

• Focus on Form: In the early stages, overload your brain with swing thoughts. The goal is to learn the new movement!
  ​
• Remove the ball: We want to change the movement and if you put a ball in the way you’ll focus on making contact and slow down movement changes.
  ​
• Don’t make the same mistake twice: When practicing with foam balls, avoid repeating mistakes, such as hitting the ball fat 2-3x in a row.
  ​
• Expect Dual Swings: This training might lead to having two golf swings: the one you practice and the one you play with.
  ​

THE PROCESS:

Step 1: Freezer Drill Without a Ball

Start by starting at the top of the back swing and make a downswing focusing on changing body movements.
​
This “freezer” method helps you get a feel for the new move and allows you to think about every detail of your swing to make it as perfect as possible.

​
Step 2: Slow Backswing Without a Ball

Next, practice with a 3 second backswing, still without a ball.
​
This helps you focus on each phase of the swing, ensuring that you’re moving correctly through every step.

​
Step 3: Freezer Drill With a Foam Ball

Now, introduce a foam ball and apply the freezer drill. This helps you translate the correct movements to an actual hitting scenario.

​
Step 4: Slow Backswing With a Foam Ball

Continue with the foam ball, but this time, perform a slow backswing before hitting it. You won’t make perfect contact! But don’t make the same mistake twice. Problem solve to figure out
​
This combines the mental aspect of focusing on your swing mechanics with the physical aspect of actually hitting the ball.

​
Step 5: Freezer Drill With a Real Ball

It’s time to try the freezer drill with a real golf ball. This step is crucial for applying the swing to making real contact.

​
Step 6: Slow Backswing With a Real Ball

Finally, execute a slow backswing with a real ball. Finally we can work on making solid contact and don’t be surprised if your “slow backswing” is actually what should become your real backswing.
