"Ok. Last, but not least our driver. So, got our little home driving range with our plastic wiffle balls. I'm not going to see how I'm hitting the driver. So, usually if I'm not in a good groove I tend to fade or slice the ball more than I would like. So, this is a good way for me to see how I'm hitting it and to get a lot of reps so I can actually groove the type of stroke that I want. So, I'm just going to line up. Use my imagination a little bit, think I'm playing the number one tee at Augusta. And, I line up. I totally relax. And, I hit that ball a little bit more to the left than I want and a little higher than I'd like. So, that's what I noticed with that shot. So, I'm going to tee up another ball and I'm going to see how I can do with this one. So, this is very useful practice. Because, it really produces the same spin as when you hit a regular golf ball. So, that one was long and straight and that felt like a really comfortable swing. So, it's actually pretty realistic as far as the body's concerned. You're turning and you're exploding. Instead of just hitting a real golf ball, you're hitting a plastic golf ball. So, use these things at home. You'll find they're very valuable. And, the more reps that you get on a daily basis or a weekly basis overtime that's going to pay off in an improved swing and an improved game."
