I'm Fatting And Thinning The Golf Ball. Why Is This Happening - And How Can I Fix It?

Clive Tucker demonstrates a few drills for golfers to try to help them stop fatting and thinning the golf ball.

There are times when no matter what we seem to do, we have a poor ball-striking round. For a lot of mid to high handicappers, bad ball-striking comes in the form of 'fats' and 'thins'. In other words, the ball doesn't come off the center of the clubface (in some cases nowhere near it)!

Knowing how to hit an iron shot means having to focus in on those key fundamentals. such as the correct ball position and finding the perfect set-up. Here, Golf Monthly Top 50 Coach Clive Tucker demonstrates the causes behind these poor card-wrecking strikes, and offers some helpful advice on how to cure them and improve your ball-striking.
