Bryson DeChambeau Drill: Right-Arm Drive for Clean Contact & Consistency

Key Points

• Drill Setup:

  • Place a yardstick on the ground.
  • Set a ball about 6–7 inches in front of the stick.
  • Goal: Hit the ball cleanly without touching the stick

• Focus of the Drill:

  • Emphasizes the right arm driving through impact.
  • Builds the habit of pushing through the ball instead of decelerating.
  • Can be used for chips or full shots — referred to as a “chip shot procedure”

• Common Mistake:

  • Many players hit the yardstick (early contact or scooping).
  • If nervous, move the stick back slightly until you can complete the motion confidently

• Right Arm Action:

  • Folding and driving: The right arm should fold naturally on the backswing and drive aggressively through the ball.
  • Creates cleaner contact, better trajectory, and more consistency

• Pro Insight:

  • Bryson DeChambeau uses a similar concept with masking tape on the ground.
  • This version is more portable — ideal when practicing without extra gear
