Rory Mcllroys NEW Driver Swing with Tiger Woods & Nelly Korda
What I've learned from talking to all the predecessors before me, that I've played against, and younger players like you guys, feel and real are different. Yeah. You know that's one of the things but always pick someone's brain and find out what they're feeling and then listen!
Have you done anything different with your driving this year as an evolution or yeah um or just continuation of what you were doing yeah just a continuation I think um the one thing that I would say over the the last couple of years that I've done is probably add just a couple more shots to my repertoire I mean you know we've played a ton of golf together for the last decade plus and like I was always dropping it on the inside hitting up on it and sort of just hitting that draw the whole time which is good and it's consistent but sometimes it could get me into trouble as well so just tried to play around a little bit with lower ball flights and maybe hitting it a little bit left or right at times and just trying to be a little bit more consistent I think for me if I can get my like I hit the ball far enough so if I can just get my driving accuracy just to touch up that did you find that it feels like you've opened up more golf courses to your advantage which is your driver yeah be able to move the ball either way now absolutely I think for me you know I used to have the mindset of oh I'm not going to go there because it doesn't suit me or I don't like it correct or I feel like I'm not able to play golf courses even if they don't suit my eye as much I'm still able to figure out a way to to get the ball around and to compete on TR s that I maybe didn't compete on correct so you're saying like even with the amount of different shots that let's say you've um learned this year would are you still very confident in each and one of them yeah I think I yes I am I think the more you do it the more confident you'll you'll become but I think for me especially off the tea when I drive it my worst is when I like try to guide it yeah that's when you the that's when it sort of goes impressive but um I haven't been on tour in a while so I correct me if I'm wrong but you didn't you go to a shorter driver yeah so I went to Shorter shaft at the start of last year okay yeah so um just a little more control I probably headit it out of the middle of the face a little bit more as well and smash Factor went up but you still hit B same distance with a shorter driver more control yeah more control yeah yeah I don't you actually don't swing it that much slower either I mean it's I find you don't yeah but what was your mess with let's say a longer Drive or so I think when the longer driver when I got up to the top and it was long I would it would just want to fall behind me yeah and then I'd miss it both ways I'd either push it right or I'd hit this like Slinger Slinger left yeah so I this just I feel like with this little bit of a shorter shaft I can keep the club just a little more in front of me on the way down like your wrist locked in more from the top to the bottom yeah yeah it just is a little more easier just to get done in front of me and then more consistent I can hit that feed that that I haven't hit a ton so you guys are both interlock too right yeah see I'm overlap oh yeah that was a lunch ball that was a to to lunch ball it's interesting you've you've always been a person that loved a square looking driver with a stronger face at a dress yes that face never got open on you had a dress you like it I do I like almost tow it in a little tow it in a little bit right yeah I just I've always liked that look yep um and to me as well I when I tow it in I can't swing right you know so like it gets it gets me to swing on the right path get it is that pretty or what that is very nice he's just chipped at 180 so you do you close your face already when you grip it or um it's I I think right when he takes it right when he takes it back he'll kind of monkey around a little bit and right before it takes it back you get strong yeah to me it's always just a I think as well like we've talked about this sometimes I get have a tendency to get the club face going a little too open on the way back too so it sort of gets me feeling like the club face looks at the ball a little more on the way back mhm can you hit that little um little little kiss her kiss her kiss her cut out there yeah you know little controlly calls it yeah little controlly just a little little M there so I get a little closer to it stand a little taller you do that's interesting you stand taller to it yeah because I feel when I'm taller I can't I can't do that as much so I feel like I keep my right side High that's interesting so that's the way for you to feel like your covering it.
