Looking for golf lessons in Cuyahoga Falls? This week, Ron Shea shares one of the simplest and most important golf tips for better contact and more consistent shots.
The Problem
One of the most common mistakes golfers make is lifting their head too early during the swing.
Most players want to see where the ball is going before they actually finish the shot. When that happens, the body comes up too soon and the club loses solid contact with the ball.
That leads to:
- topped shots
- thin shots
- weak contact
- inconsistent ball striking
Ron Shea’s Tip
👉 Keep your eye on the ball all the way through your follow through.

Staying down through impact helps you stay balanced and strike the ball more cleanly.
You don’t need to swing harder.
You need better focus and better contact.
Simple Practice Drill
The next time you practice:
- Keep your head down through impact
- Listen for the ball to leave the clubface
- Hold your finish for 2–3 seconds
- Stay balanced after the shot
This simple adjustment can make a huge difference in consistency.
Why This Works
When golfers lift their head too early:
- the shoulders rise
- the swing path changes
- the clubface moves off the ball
Keeping your eye on the ball longer helps everything stay connected through impact.
The result:
- cleaner contact
- straighter shots
- more confidence
