Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 0:23Use shirt buttons as a low-point reference and position the ball forward to encourage an upward driver strike.
- 1:47Set the handle slightly higher at address, pointing above the beltline.
- 2:44Tilt the chest slightly away from the target to move the swing's low point backward.
- 3:52Move the hands back and up rather than low and around to lengthen the swing.
- 4:36Kolb recommends releasing lag rather than holding it excessively, allowing the clubhead to gather speed.
Todd Kolb gives golfers a swing reference they already have on: the buttons on their shirt. In US GOLF TV's most-watched new upload, he uses them to explain where the swing bottoms out, then demonstrates tilting them slightly away from the target to encourage an upward driver strike.
"Turn Your Driver From Your Most Frustrating Club Into Your Best One" has reached roughly 9,500 views. The studio lesson works through ball position, handle height, upper-body tilt, takeaway and release. Its final point challenges a familiar pursuit: Kolb says holding on to too much lag can cost driver speed rather than create it. Viewers' questions focus on coming down too steeply and how the backward tilt fits with weight distribution.
Distance runs through the week's nine uploads. "Senior Golfers: Do These 3 Things to Hit Longer Drives" recommends a higher lead arm, a finish on the lead foot and swinging through the ball. A separate hybrid lesson makes Kolb's case for replacing long irons when swing speed is slower.
The strongest daily momentum belongs to "Finish With a High Handle to Hit More Draws and Distance #golf #golfswing #golftips", followed by the short-swing drill. Both extend that same back-and-up swing theme.
Subscribers held steady, while daily viewing is below the channel's usual level. H.I.T GOLF and Golf Channel are having busier-than-usual days nearby; US GOLF TV's week is more about practical checkpoints, right down to a little forward bump of the putter before the stroke.

What viewers say
I was hoping you had a video that would take the HIgh Club and get it back on plane. I come in too steep all the time and all the things I have tried won't get me hitting up on the ball.

@richardames9756See it on YouTubeAfter 30 years of coaching, those five mistakes are clearly the ones that keep showing up for a reason. Coming in too steep and never hitting up on the ball is such a common one — helpful to see them all laid out together.
