Renowned golf instructor Martin Hall demonstrates how to use Five Star Golf’s super-dense Perfect Reaction Golf Mat and two tees to create the perfect “strike zone” and enhance your ability to hit the center of the clubface more consistently.

[Music]Martin Hall here for Five Star Golf Mats. I'm on the Perfect ReAction mat which I think is the best mat in the business. It's dense enough to hold wooden tees without using pre-punched rubber tee holders, and I love that fact because it allows me to do the Gate Drill. What is
the Gate Drill? The Gate Drill is where I put a tee into the mat, I put the toe of the club just
inside that. I put another tee at an angle of the shaft, like that. Now, that gives me a gateway to swing through, a sort of a Strike Zone, as I call it.
Too many players are in the, sort of, the No Fly Zone, one way or the other. So, practice swinging between the gates initially, and then hitting balls between the gates, is such a wonderful way to make solid contact. Now, you can vary how close or how far away you get those tees, but maybe an in an eighth of an inch either side, the toe and the heel to begin with. And then you can sharpen it up! But if I hit this very near the middle of the golf club, I won't disturb either of those tees. And I know for sure that one was hit, “hey diddle, diddle” right in the middle. We all love that! So, if you do the drill, here's a promise: that's going to help you.
