Driving · Start Direction
Alternate ten shots between two range targets while ignoring curve—each switch is a fresh face assignment with your full routine in play. Part of Driving — Start Direction training — score against par, track every attempt in the app, and see real improvement.
Why this drill
Where the ball starts is almost entirely controlled by the club face at impact. Push it right, pull it left — the face is responsible. Start direction drills like this one train you to aim and deliver the face accurately, so you can hit the ball where you're aiming, fix a slice, or reduce a pull. This is the foundation of consistent ball-striking. Part of TeeBetter's Start Direction training.

FAQ
Start direction and face-to-path drills. Gate drills (like Thread the Needle, Shrinking Goal Posts) train where the ball starts by focusing on face angle; curve drills (Curve From the Line, Curve to the Line, The Big Miss) train face and path together so you can reduce curvature or learn to hit a draw. Use a par and score every shot so you have a number to improve.
Face control and start-line awareness. Drills that focus on where the ball starts and gate work with half swings help you feel and see face direction at impact. Practice with a clear target and score so you get objective feedback instead of relying on feel alone.
