Stop topping it

1 Poor posture at address is often a primary cause of the topped shot as you won’t be able to maintain your angles as you swing and are likely to lift away from the ball through impact (below). Golfers with poor posture tend to bend through the back so their pelvis is too far forward. Push your pelvis back to maintain a good spine angle and focus on keeping it back through the strike so you can stay over the ball more and get to the bottom of it through impact for solid contact (main photo).

Good posture
