How does this correspond with your tip about drawing a line down the ball and putting that line between your feet, the turning your left foot and moving your right foot apart? Do you still center up with the ball, or do you center up with your line 3 inches behind?
Alex, As always great tips, but I have a question on driver head hitting. Have you ever had a number of students put hitting tape or foot spray on the driver face. Then have them hit and record impact points. Be interesting to see results. Cheers, Joel Halprin
Alex, I’m an avid listener to your program. Every day I listen to your latest tip. I’ve been slicing the ball more than I would like to admit. Your latest tip on teeing the golf ball lower and starting the club 3 inches behind the ball and slightly off center of club face is my new set up. I was bombing the ball today. Longest drive 271, and consistently out around 240-250. I also incorporated your bunker set up and I’m getting out of bunkers beautifully. Love all your lessons and I’m down to a 7 handicap. I’m also 67 yrs old and a throat cancer survivor. 100% cancer free and playing golf 3-4 days a week. CHEERS!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Thank you for this, really appreciate the message. Well done you for working on your game like you have and so good to hear you beat cancer. Keep at it alan!🙌🏼
I just took this video to the net in my garage, took some videos and my swing doesnt even look the same!!! i was soo over the top before and now its just shallow and hitting the middle of the face!?! HOW!? I cant wait to get this on the course!! Thanks brother!
Alex I have struggled with slice forever and tried this today. Basically fixed the problem immediately and I was suddenly hitting baby draws. Can’t thank you enough for this simple fix!
1:51 Excellent! Skeptical at 1st. Took this advice to the course yesterday and , “wow!” What a difference! Clean strike, reduced slice improved consistency, increased confidence! Thank you for sharing!
Wow that is a great hack. I just went to the garage and gave it a go with some contact paper on the driver. Terrific! I had the tee height down but the other two were really helpful, especially lining up closer to the toe. The centrifugal aspect of the driver is real.
Alex,I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all your great advice. .At 71 I'll never be a tour player but you've helped my game and for that I'm very grateful. Sincerely, George Davey U.S.A.
Alex, I affixed one of those white stickers to the face of my driver. It showed the impact point on the face of my driver and I noticed how often I was striking the ball near the heal of the club. I changed my address like you suggested and it makes a tremendous difference. I am now striking the ball near or on the sweet spot and my direction and control of the driver has been greatly enhanced. Great tip! Really appreciated your straight-foward approach. You get right to the point and you simplify the instructions. Really appreciate you.
Nice,... I just did it during the last hole of league yesterday. Hit the best drive, distance and feel wise that I can remember in the longest time. Birdied the hole but only to cancel out a skin from the better player on the league. Which still feels like a win for me lol.
Just wow!! Me and a friend that also struggle with the driver tried the 2nd tip today and it worked right away, we thought there’s was a glitch in the matrix, but I think we hit the rest of the basket dead strait with a few exceptions. Thank you, we can actually enjoy golf now!
Toe-alignment, and well-behind the ball at address, tips were the reminders I’ve been needing so badly!! Everything was crowding in my downswing but *snap* just like that, I can really feel the freedom to accelerate through impact and make clean contact with the ball again! Drawlellujah!!
Hi Alex I started using your tip by setting the driver 3 inches behind the ball and out of the toe. I was hitting some of my drives from 180 metres total to 235 metres and it gave me more height. Thanks Alex
wow! took your tips with me to the ranch and hit 15 straight long drives in a row with good ball striking. my usual miss is heel, but now i hit the middle. Thanks for this simple and effective tip. 🙂
Hi Alex! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou..... I played today and followed all what you say in this video ...... I drived the ball off the tee better than ever in my life . Plus made putts....WoW! A very good day at the office🎉.
Alex. Used you tee peg trick with driver today (FYI just bought my first driver). After hitting the ground on my first three tries, I put the a marker to the back right of the driver as a focus point. In nutted 3 in a row! This totally works.
These are great tips. This is how I've been hitting the ball for years. I went in for a professional fitting that he told me to do nearly the opposite of everything you stated. They clearly didn't sell me any clubs...
I watched this video the night before i was going to play, the simple adjustments talked about straightened my drive and added about 25 yards. I couldnt believe how simple it was.
4:42 the top line of the face looks set for a slice, for years I’ve squared that up to the ball. What am I seeing and why? You can see it but does it square naturally in the swing? Thanks
I tried the toe set up and it did help. I hit the ball plenty high bet have struggled to be straight. Today my big miss was 5 yards. I was consistently to the right. I was thinking hit the inside left of the ball. My tee up tip. Place your tea into the ground and then play Chevelle just in front of it to where the tea height is at the top of your ball. This will put you very close to the epicenter of the ball being halfway above your club.. easy fix. Can’t wait to hit a Bucket an practice this drive tip more
This video fixed my driver yipps. I also now over exaggerate my lean, and stay back, and I’m blasting close to 300 yards dead straight. Shot my best round in a club tournament last week. Thanks Alex!
Tried this today for the first time on the range. Unbelievable! I thought it was a fluke. I hit two dozen with driver. Striped every one. Dead straight or slight draw… 👌. I’ve been struggling with push/cuts. I’m gonna use this from here on out. Start it off the toe!! 🔥🤯
Great tip for driver. My sand game has improved a ton by lining it up off the toe with an open face. No fear and I can pop it up nicely as long as I take a clump of sand under the ball.
What a great lesson.. went to the range after watching it.. and dialled in lining up the toe and resting the club on the floor a clubhead behind… bye bye slice.. central fairway most of the time
Yet another great tip! I followed the steps and my driver shot improved. Wonderful great feeling with good driver shot. I shared this video with my new golf mate and they are getting better and better with their drive shot.
TY Alex, I appreciate this so much. I have been trying to adjust to a new set of longer clubs. Was told I wasn't using right length. Altgough I was very successful with the old driver. Now I am trying to
Brilliant advice. It has taken me multiple years to come to the exact same three points- unfortunately through A LOT of trial and error. I honestly have learned and improved more from watching these videos than from ANY in person lesson. THANK YOU 🙏🏽
Saw the Average Golfer ‘testing this tip’ - tried it and found amazing results on the range so then watched your v-log and subscribed. Looking forward to catching up with your channel 😊 and working on this approach further
I have to say that I was a bit sceptical about placing the driver about 3" behind the ball....the rest of the stuff I already do...so thought I would try the 3" behind set up, well...OMG, I have been hitting strainer than ever and with distance too...lovely ball flight also, brilliant tip haven't hit driver so well....also,you did a bunker video...really crouched down almost squatting....bugger me, works a treat, all I can say is that these two tips have made my game alot better, thanks very much keep up the good work....👍🏻
Wow that is a very good tips for driver mate.. i've tried it and i never hit the ball on the heel area anymore, no more pain to the hand because of vibration from heel hit and also i can hit the ball much more consistent with no more of that nightmarish slice.. thanks mate imma locked on to this way of addressing the ball for the driver forever lol 👍👍👍👍👍
Alex! I just used your lesson for my driver and irons. I tee'd the ball just half for driver and marked the triangle on right and x on left side of ball. OMG - I hit so many more consistent shots, and having my right foot at an angle changed my game so much! I subscribed and thank you!!!
I figured this out a while back and wanted to see if you had some extra tips for it. I’m definitely going to try setting it up a few inches behind the ball at address. Thanks!
Some excellent tips,really struggled with my driver off the tee, had a massive slice,this video explains why,hav you got any vids in why am pulling my wedges left,great videos and tips
Hi Alex, I watched this video yesterday and put it into practice this morning. I moved the ball an inch or so from centre out to the toe of the driver and what a difference. I didnt fluff one shot and they all seemed to come from the middle of the club and travel further too. Thanks for the advice, you've made a huge difference - Nick
Going back to setting the ball back sorry to interrupt your Portugal break!! Lol did struggle with the 7 iron pushes to the right or didn’t close the face will work on it cheers any way 👍👍
Omg 😮. I started with watching your earlier video hitting from the front of the toe which helped me tremendously. After watching this video by adding the 3 inches out is a game changer! I must have added about 20 yards give or take more. Thank u so much Alex n enjoy Portugal 😁
Im a 6.1 index and have been struggling somewhat off the tee. I tried these suggestions today and absolutely killed it. Only missed one fairway. I think it encourages a bit more in to out swing path. ‘Very happy with these simple yet effective tips.
Great demonstration that makes total sense. I discovered that awhile ago in regards to ball position to the face of the club. I now have to try the 3 inches behind the club face. I am sure it will work. Thanks for your demonstrations. Keep them coming.
All excellent tips Alex on Driver alignment and tee height! Because of the inconsistencies of of our grassed tee boxes, I carry two length tees (3 1/4" & 2 3/4"). I do use your recommended tee height. I like your suggestion of addressing the ball towards the toe because on occasion I do get "off center" hits! I also like your other suggestion of setting the club three inches or so in back of the ball in order to get an upward strike on the drive!
YOUR SITE IS POSSIBLY BEING HACKED!! Unless you are issuing notifications of "short list of prize winners", than you are possibly being hacked! I highly recommend you have someone look into this! Thanks!
Alex you did it again. I bought a new driver a few weeks ago and the first rounds it was constantly missing right! Trying to correct it turned into duck hooks. I tried this on my round this morning and the one I missed right was just a slight fade and I hit high draws on all the rest. How refreshing to have some confidence again! Thanks again!
Just started doing the "address off the toe" and it worked ....pro at the club not happy tho ....going to keep trying it after this video tho and see how it goes
Alex, thanks for this valuable tip, went to the driving range today, and sure as heck this worked 100%, did have the odd one fade or slice a bit but not as bad as before, practice well help me perfect it.
Good stuff today thanks for the info. I'm struggling to not come from the outside in I tried to adjust and I still come from the outside-in no matter what can you have some kind of show on that thank you
I just realized yesterday, as I was playing, and now that you mentioned it, I was teeing the ball waaay to high. And kept on hitting the dreaded duck hook! 😬
Hi Alex May i ask what course you are at in Portugal as my wife and i are over there in September and i will be playing a round of golf which has been on my bucket list, your lessons are so user friendly and straight forward.
Tee height varies based on shot type. And I keep the club a foot or so behind. It's my focus that I adjust. I don't look at the ball, I look at the point I want the club to bottom out. I find I bottom out where I focus when taking practice swings so I learned to use that. I can focus close and he t it low or focus three inches behind and hit it high. I can also help achieve the right path with that focal point by moving it inside or outside the ball. As for finding the right portion of the face two tees make a gate that gives instant feedback. My Cobra drivers black face shows an imprint mark still after every swing. I use that during play. I just wipe it clean after every swing and I can count the dimples and see how well I compressed the ball it's so clear. I love that.
Good stuff Alex. Thanks. I have a question for you. I was recently asked not to flare my lead toe outward to help stop early extension. Tried it, works. Could you give me some reasoning why it works?
I'd naturally started lining up with the toe of the face to combat my slice and felt like a bit of a headcase but it worked! Love seeing a video that justifies what I'm doing! 😁
I have watched as many of your videos as I can find. Irons are beginning to work better for me. But, the big stick is still { to be polite, inconsistent } to be accurate { it sucks, I am right, then left and who knows where it will go next }? Have you got a Driver video that will show everything from setup thru swing?
I started to address at the toe to help combat chronic heel strikes. It definitely helps. I just recently started addressing a few inches behind, but i still hover. I'll give this a shot.
Are you going to post any content of you playing a few rounds of golf perhaps competitively with other UA-cam golfers? Be nice to see the competitive side coming out and leading the way by showing us how it’s done 👊🏾
Today I put the club three inches behind the ball on the ground for the first time and adressed it towards the toe. Hit my drives dead straight and not bad for a lady ; ) . Thank you Alex.
Thank you. I will try your 3 ideas. Your reasons make sense so I hope they will work for me. I have subscribed many times but DO NOT GET NOTIFIED ABOUT YOUR EXCELLENT VIDEOS. I have to find them on YOU TUBE. I regularly watch & give a positive, favourable comments.
I've started reaching out a little farther when I line up my driver. that's in addition to the improvements to stance and grip. it gives me a freer swing and reduces the over the top tendency.
Excellent tips Alex, thank you for posting. I cannot wait to get out & try this. As for ball height off the teeing ground, simple, use stepped tees. I use 38mm for my driver & 12mm for everything else. It takes the ball height variable out of the equation.
*This is a MUST DO! Iv done it for years! Make sure you do it to now!*
Makes a ton of sense Alex.
How does this correspond with your tip about drawing a line down the ball and putting that line between your feet, the turning your left foot and moving your right foot apart? Do you still center up with the ball, or do you center up with your line 3 inches behind?
If I go 3 inches behind the ball,hitting it on the heel,will get my slice back?
Holy smokes...my "centrifugal force" idea was right, I was just kind of nervous about trying it on the course. C'mon Saturday!
Alex, As always great tips, but I have a question on driver head hitting. Have you ever had a number of students put hitting tape or foot spray on the driver face. Then have them hit and record impact points. Be interesting to see results. Cheers, Joel Halprin
These are great lessons. Quick and straight forward. No 20 minutes of bs before the lesson. You say it then you show it. Love it. New subscriber here.

Did this this past Tuesday during league on last hole. It absolutely worked especially the toe line up. Best hit I ever hit

LOVE THAT
@AlexElliottGolf I'm finding the fairways more with this. Every now and then I have a brain fart and hit a slice but that's from me over thinking
This is probably the best and simplistic video explained from the 100s I’ve been watching. You put me at ease. Thank you 🙏
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching
Just wow!! Me and a friend that also struggle with the driver tried the 2nd tip today and it worked right away, we thought there’s was a glitch in the matrix, but I think we hit the rest of the basket dead strait with a few exceptions. Thank you, we can actually enjoy golf now!

Alex, I tried this yesterday and man did it make a difference in my drives. Thank you so much. Consistently good.
You are great at golf tips!!!
Great to hear!
Watched this last night and tried it out today. Great results!! My new driver swing, thanks Alex.
wow! took your tips with me to the ranch and hit 15 straight long drives in a row with good ball striking. my usual miss is heel, but now i hit the middle. Thanks for this simple and effective tip. 🙂
Hi Alex! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou..... I played today and followed all what you say in this video ...... I drived the ball off the tee better than ever in my life . Plus made putts....WoW! A very good day at the office🎉.

I watched this video the night before i was going to play, the simple adjustments talked about straightened my drive and added about 25 yards. I couldnt believe how simple it was.
4:42 the top line of the face looks set for a slice, for years I’ve squared that up to the ball. What am I seeing and why? You can see it but does it square naturally in the swing? Thanks
Alex, the "John Rahm" video was awesome and I really benefitted. The toe tip is my next stop, can't wait.
thank you! glad they help
Alex tried this today on the course WOW solid strikes on 80% of my shots Thanks so much😊
I tried this today at the driving range and as usual, you're absolutely right mate. Thanks Alex.
I tried the toe set up and it did help. I hit the ball plenty high bet have struggled to be straight.
Today my big miss was 5 yards. I was consistently to the right. I was thinking hit the inside left of the ball.

I’ve been struggling with push/cuts. I’m gonna use this from here on out. Start it off the toe!! 🔥🤯
Fantastic little tweak to help your driving. I was suddenly pulling left and this fixed me quickly.
Great tip for driver. My sand game has improved a ton by lining it up off the toe with an open face. No fear and I can pop it up nicely as long as I take a clump of sand under the ball.

Figure it out all over again! I am connecting~ but not as consistent as be4
This by far the best advice and proven. I actually started doing the same thing by trail an error. Do one for your irons and woods please.
Brilliant advice. It has taken me multiple years to come to the exact same three points- unfortunately through A LOT of trial and error. I honestly have learned and improved more from watching these videos than from ANY in person lesson. THANK YOU 🙏🏽
You are very welcome!!
Saw the Average Golfer ‘testing this tip’ - tried it and found amazing results on the range so then watched your v-log and subscribed. Looking forward to catching up with your channel 😊 and working on this approach further

I didnt fluff one shot and they all seemed to come from the middle of the club and travel further too. Thanks for the advice, you've made a huge difference - Nick
I to did do as Alex suggested. It works. Did this tip work for the other clubs in the bag
Hi Alex, wow tried this today on the course and what a difference it made. Didn't slice a shot all day, just straight bombs. Thanks for the tip
Brill! really glad this has helped you
Yet again another gem tried another tip today setting the ball half a ball back with the scoring irons what a difference cheers 👍👍
Thank you Andy!! I really appreciate the support I hope you golf is improving
Going back to setting the ball back sorry to interrupt your Portugal break!! Lol did struggle with the 7 iron pushes to the right or didn’t close the face will work on it cheers any way 👍👍
Omg 😮. I started with watching your earlier video hitting from the front of the toe which helped me tremendously. After watching this video by adding the 3 inches out is a game changer! I must have added about 20 yards give or take more. Thank u so much Alex n enjoy Portugal 😁

Ignore the telegram message. You know it’s me when it has a verified tick!
Im a 6.1 index and have been struggling somewhat off the tee. I tried these suggestions today and absolutely killed it. Only missed one fairway. I think it encourages a bit more in to out swing path. ‘Very happy with these simple yet effective tips.

Steady on john
Hi Alex,
Thank you for the tips. I'll be visiting Porto, Portugal at the end of August for the first time. Cheers.
You’re right Alex you’re not crazy it works ! Cheers
I do this too. It works you'll hit the sweet spot more often.
Thanks Alex
YESSSS so happy to hear you do this
Alex you did it again.
I bought a new driver a few weeks ago and the first rounds it was constantly missing right! Trying to correct it turned into duck hooks. I tried this on my round this morning and the one I missed right was just a slight fade and I hit high draws on all the rest. How refreshing to have some confidence again! Thanks again!
Great work! so glad i can help
NO GOLF ⛳️ CHANNEL is doing the ‘Player Cam Perspective’!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE 🙏 Keep doing this in your videos!
Game changer
Made these changes last round.
Hit my lowest score to date. Cheers 🎉
Best video yet! Can’t wait to go to the beeches and practice that one!!! You’ve just described me! Thankyou! Also I want lessons so hit me up mate
Nice. Thanks for the proper set up. Always knew this, never used it, now to the range!
Just started doing the "address off the toe" and it worked ....pro at the club not happy tho ....going to keep trying it after this video tho and see how it goes
Great tip..always been back of the ball but lining up the toe to the ball has made a huge difference!
Can you address out of the toe with irons? Will give it a try and see what happens. Great video instruction Alex😊
Alex, thanks for this valuable tip, went to the driving range today, and sure as heck this worked 100%, did have the odd one fade or slice a bit but not as bad as before, practice well help me perfect it.
Good stuff today thanks for the info. I'm struggling to not come from the outside in I tried to adjust and I still come from the outside-in no matter what can you have some kind of show on that thank you
Alex, Tried this today. Amazing, 9/13 fairways,pretty good for me. Thanks
I just realized yesterday, as I was playing, and now that you mentioned it, I was teeing the ball waaay to high. And kept on hitting the dreaded duck hook! 😬
I did exactly this about 2 years ago and went from a slicer to the best driver in the group.. Straight almost all the time now.
I appreciate your passion and support for all golfers to fully understand their own swing so we can fix our problem through practice.
thank you!
Thanks very helpful. Do you then look at the back of the ball before swinging?
I notice you also have the driver face open?
Hi Alex May i ask what course you are at in Portugal as my wife and i are over there in September and i will be playing a round of golf which has been on my bucket list, your lessons are so user friendly and straight forward.
Tee height varies based on shot type. And I keep the club a foot or so behind. It's my focus that I adjust. I don't look at the ball, I look at the point I want the club to bottom out.

I just wipe it clean after every swing and I can count the dimples and see how well I compressed the ball it's so clear. I love that.
I’ve been hovering for years; I’m trying out these tips next week!!
Brilliant, I’ll try that on range tomorrow, thanks.
So good. Will try it on my next game. Thank you.
Great video Alex, but what about both the 3 and 5 woods off the tee?? I am never sure how I should set up the golf ball.
Ball on string is a great analogy and makes perfect sense.
Good stuff Alex. Thanks. I have a question for you. I was recently asked not to flare my lead toe outward to help stop early extension. Tried it, works. Could you give me some reasoning why it works?
Great driving tips Alex.
Great concept which I am glad I watched. Is there a thought you recommend to stop hitting ground first vice ball then ground.
I'd naturally started lining up with the toe of the face to combat my slice and felt like a bit of a headcase but it worked! Love seeing a video that justifies what I'm doing! 😁
I have watched as many of your videos as I can find. Irons are beginning to work better for me.
But, the big stick is still { to be polite, inconsistent } to be accurate { it sucks, I am right, then left and who knows where it will go next }? Have you got a Driver video that will show everything from setup thru swing?
I started to address at the toe to help combat chronic heel strikes. It definitely helps. I just recently started addressing a few inches behind, but i still hover. I'll give this a shot.
Moe Norman addressed the ball a few inches behind. I’m going to give this a try. Does the same apply for fairway irons and woods?
Are you going to post any content of you playing a few rounds of golf perhaps competitively with other UA-cam golfers? Be nice to see the competitive side coming out and leading the way by showing us how it’s done 👊🏾
Today I put the club three inches behind the ball on the ground for the first time and adressed it towards the toe. Hit my drives dead straight and not bad for a lady ; ) . Thank you Alex.
LOVE that Eva!!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Another amazing tip. Your videos are a game changer for me and your instructions make replicating these tips just make it so easy!
Thank you. I will try your 3 ideas.
Your reasons make sense so I hope they will work for me.
I have subscribed many times but DO NOT GET NOTIFIED ABOUT YOUR EXCELLENT VIDEOS.
I have to find them on YOU TUBE.
I regularly watch & give a positive, favourable comments.
Excellent advice. Can’t wait to try this.
Addressing the ball a few inches behind encourages weight shift to get through the ball, otherwise there’s a risk of topping it. Good video, thanks
I started lining up with the toe some time ago and my slice evaporated instantly!
Great tips! It actually works very well. Thank you Alex.
Great tip alex so where do u look at the ball or 3 to 4 inches behind the ball
I've started reaching out a little farther when I line up my driver. that's in addition to the improvements to stance and grip. it gives me a freer swing and reduces the over the top tendency.
Excellent tips Alex, thank you for posting. I cannot wait to get out & try this.
As for ball height off the teeing ground, simple, use stepped tees.
I use 38mm for my driver & 12mm for everything else. It takes the ball height variable out of the equation.
Great video can't wait to try it on the range I was wondering is it the same for the fairway woods to line up on the toe?
Loving the videos Alex. Any chance you can give me a simple tip to help strike my fairway woods off the deck better each time? Thanks
