Chris Steel turns Bryson's driver stall into a lawn-mower pull feel

In a 53-second clip, Chris Steel Golf overlays Bryson DeChambeau telling Wesley that the lead hand has to stall and pull up so the face can square when you push hard into the ground. Steel's fix for handle-draggers is feeling like you yank a lawn-mower cord.

    Chris Steel Golf: A great tip from one of the best drivers in the world, Bryson Dechambeau

  • In the clip, Bryson says that when you put force into the ground, the lead hand has to stop chasing. If that hand keeps moving, he says, you never square the face. What he feels instead is a stall and a pull up that lets the club square. That, he says, is how he can swing hard and still line the face up.

    Steel's coaching layer is aimed at amateurs who bring their iron move to the tee. He calls out handle-dragging and staying down too long as the pattern that produces big blocks and slices. His visual is pulling the string on a lawn mower: up and back, throw the club out, and get the shaft and lead arm lined up at impact. He says that feel both helps the face square and frees up speed.

    A launch monitor makes this easy to test. Hit five drivers with your normal iron-style hold-down move and note face angle and start line. Then hit five with the lawn-mower pull-up feel Bryson describes in the clip. Keep the ones that start on line. Steel's video is the source for the cue; the numbers on your screen tell you whether it helps your miss.
