Golf Hitting woods? – Medicus?
I just bought the medicus dual-hinged 5-iron and it really helped my iron play big time. I’m still having some trouble with my woods though and don’t really want to shell out for the medicus driver because I would think the swing is virtual the same between irons and woods just ball address.
Here’s the weird part I can hit my woods pretty good if I keep my feet together but when I address the ball normal then I screw up. I think it has something to do with my balance and tempo because that has been an issue with my golf game.
Any tips or drills to help me out? I tend to hit the ball fat (hit ground first) but getting little better at it trying to keep my balance I think the feet together drill is good any other ideas to help me with my wood swing? I’m a beginner so I know it it’s a learning process.

I had an Old timer ( and he would be Reallllly old today) tell me if you are hitting fat your spine angle is off…… I’d be inclined to believe that you may be dipping your back towards the ball on your down swing….Its just a guess….but I’ve seen a lot of folks that have the same problem doing that a lot.
if you swing better with your feet together, then it’s definitely your tempo. I would suggest putting a tee behind your wood when you set up and hitting that tee on the way back just to get some rhythm. or even count 1,2 on the way back then 1,2 on the way down. good contact with the club is what helps the shot, not how hard you swing. swinging with your feet together is a great drill to help with tempo, and it sounds like you’re on a good path! good luck!
There is a difference between a driver swing and an iron swing. An iron swing is steeper than the shallow driver swing. Your troubles could be that you are not playing the ball far enough forward in your stance to get the shallow driver swing set up to work properly. You have been practising your tempo with the medicus and the tempo is pretty much the same with all of your clubs so I doubt if this is a problem for you. Set up with a little wider stance and position the ball up off your left foot to get the feeling that you’re going to sweep the ball off of the tee. You’ll soon be launching that driver of yours.
