00:00:00 - We're here with Alexi to discuss a simple drill to fix the pesky toe hit that many struggle with in golf.

00:00:22 - If you hit the tee off the toe, the club is moving more towards your body when striking the golf ball, so practice by placing the tee on the inside of the ball by the heel to avoid hitting it.

00:01:01 - Try to hit the ball around 50 to 60 yards while avoiding hitting the tea.

00:01:10 - To improve your impact location and overall consistency with your strike, adjust the tee placement closer to the heel over time based on your skill level and confidence.

🏌️‍♂️ Using a golf tee as a drill can help fix toe hits by improving impact location and consistency.

⛳ Placing the tee inside the golf ball and avoiding it during practice can indicate better swing alignment.

00:00:00 - all, right, we're, here, with, Alexi, today, uh so, what, we're, going, to, talk, about, is that, pesky, toe, hit, that, everybody struggles, with, I, hear, this, happen, all the, time, I, have, a, bunch, of, students, that struggle, with, the, same, problem, so, we're going, to, talk, about, a, really, really, easy drill, to, fix, this, and, all, you, need, is this, little, golf, tea, okay, let's, get, into it [Music]

00:00:22 - perfect, so, if, you, hit, it, off, the, toe, um what, typically, happens, is, the, club, is moving, more, in, towards, your, body, uh, when you, get, to, the, point, of, striking, the golf, ball, so, what, you're, going, to, use this, t, for, is, basically, if, you, were going, to, address, this, ball, for, me, Lexi okay, you're, going, to, put, this, tea, on, the inside, of, the, golf, ball, kind, of, right, by the, heel, so, if, you're, practicing, outside

00:00:43 - or, inside, you, basically, just, stick, a, te there, and, then, the, goal, or, the, objective when, you're, practicing, is, to, avoid hitting, the, tea, you, may, hit, some, of these, shots, where, you, hit, it, off, the heel, you, may, hit, some, of, these, shots where, you, even, potentially, hit, it, off the, hosle, um, again, don't, worry, about that, I, would, start, super, slow, I, wouldn't go, fast, so, make, a, swing, where, you're, may be, going, from, like, hip, high, to, chest

00:01:01 - High, uh, maybe, hit, this, ball, like, 50, 60 yards, and, just, avoid, trying, to, hit, that tea, there, this, tea, is

00:01:10 - intimidating, so, if, you, catch, the, tea, you know, that, impact, was, probably, a, little bit, more, on, the, toe, than, you, would, have liked, okay, um, you, can, obviously, move that, te, a, little, bit, further, a, little bit, closer, depending, on, your, skill, level or, how, confident, you, are, with, this, um the, more, you, do, this, over, time, I, would just, continue, to, move, it, closer, and closer, to, the, heel, okay, but, let's, try one, more, go, ahead, and, set, up, for, me

00:01:30 - give, you, a, little, bit, more, room, here, you can, angle, that, t, slightly, away, from, the golf, ball, so, that, you, don't, run, into, the shaft, or, the, hosle, when, you're, putting it, in, the ground, there, you, go, that, was, better still, clipped, it, just, barely, clipped, it but, that'll, ultimately, help, you, solve that, problem, of, hitting, a, lot, of, shots off, the, toe, improve, your, impact, location and, just, your, overall, consistency, with your, strike
