Wean off an exaggerated drill in small steps

How the host grooves a change once the exaggerated position works: hit five or ten balls from the extremely closed/short stance, then edge the stance round in small increments until it becomes muscle memory and your feet come back to square. You don't even have to get all the way to square - even dropping the right foot back a little still helps.

Try it

  1. do maybe five or ten with the extremely short stance
  2. edge round a bit just literally in small bits
  3. go backwards and backwards and then you'll start it starts to become muscle memory

Why this context matters

Follows the closed-stance anti-slice drill.
