2025 PGA Teacher of the Year Jason Baile breaks down a simple way to turn slices and pulls into a powerful bomb draw. A common mistake Baile sees is the upper body leading the downswing and opening too quickly, which forces the club path left and steepens the attack angle.
Working with Davis Lamb, Baile demonstrates how patience at the top of the swing allows the arms to fall from the inside, shifting the path out to the right and the attack angle up. A key setup adjustment is dropping the trail foot back slightly to shift the baseline right while raising the lead hip to move the center further behind the ball.
With those adjustments and a patient transition, Davis produces a high, powerful draw with more clubhead speed and a shallower angle of attack. Baile’s takeaway: if you struggle with slices and pulls, small setup tweaks and staying patient with the upper body in transition can help you turn misses into bomb draws.
