Improve Your Club Path with the Trevino Drill
After this video, you'll be able to:
- Feel the difference between an exaggerated open stance and a square stance
- Identify how to deliver the club from the inside for a better shot
- Practice squaring the club face using body alignment rather than path
In this video, you'll learn how to use the Trevino drill to enhance your understanding of club path and squaring the club face. This unique setup will help you achieve a more consistent swing and better ball flight.

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200
This is my view of the Trevino drill.
2
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:08.400
Now the Trevino drill is a great drill for feeling the path of the club because
3
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:08.880
it basically
4
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:13.660
exaggerates and into out path and forces you to square the club face in a
5
00:00:13.660 --> 00:00:14.440
different way
6
00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:16.040
than using the path.
7
00:00:16.040 --> 00:00:19.820
So the Trevino drill, basically what you're going to do, here's my visual
8
00:00:19.820 --> 00:00:20.560
alignment.
9
00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:24.960
So we have target line midway between my feet 45-45.
10
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:29.580
I'm going to get into my setup position, but instead of having my body square
11
00:00:29.580 --> 00:00:30.920
to the target,
12
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:36.860
I'm going to position my body, kind of like the Trevino, so that it is wide
13
00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:38.500
open, 30-40
14
00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:39.500
degrees.
15
00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.180
So I'm going to do it just square to this 45 degree line.
16
00:00:42.180 --> 00:00:48.350
And then basically what I can try to do is from here, I'm going to try to get
17
00:00:48.350 --> 00:00:49.160
the club
18
00:00:49.160 --> 00:00:54.020
to hit the ball straight with a nice little, even slight draw.
19
00:00:54.020 --> 00:00:58.100
So the only way that that's going to happen is I'm going to have to come from
20
00:00:58.100 --> 00:00:59.040
the inside,
21
00:00:59.040 --> 00:01:02.420
which means that my arms are going to be relatively close to my body, so it
22
00:01:02.420 --> 00:01:03.580
kind of helps reinforce
23
00:01:03.580 --> 00:01:07.160
that delivery position and shallowing move from the arms.
24
00:01:07.160 --> 00:01:11.260
And I'm going to have to square the club face with just the motorcycle.
25
00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:14.780
What a lot of golfers do is they use the path to get the club face square, but
26
00:01:14.780 --> 00:01:15.340
if I were
27
00:01:15.340 --> 00:01:20.800
to do that on this shot with an open club face, I would hit kind of a high flop
28
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:22.740
shot-type model.
29
00:01:22.740 --> 00:01:24.540
So we'll demonstrate one or two.
30
00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:28.820
So basically here I am in this exaggerated setup position.
31
00:01:28.820 --> 00:01:33.670
I'm going to come back to almost nine to three, and then I'm going to basically
32
00:01:33.670 --> 00:01:34.060
come
33
00:01:34.060 --> 00:01:37.400
through just like so, and it gives me this good feeling of my arms kind of
34
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:37.980
close to my
35
00:01:37.980 --> 00:01:41.620
body and then extending on the way through.
36
00:01:41.620 --> 00:01:50.100
Once I have a good feeling of what it's like to basically come from the inside,
37
00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:50.180
once I
38
00:01:50.180 --> 00:01:56.570
have that good feeling, now I can set up square, and I can try to just use body
39
00:01:56.570 --> 00:01:57.580
rotation to
40
00:01:57.580 --> 00:02:01.340
basically recreate that feeling.
41
00:02:01.340 --> 00:02:07.280
So it's a good- it basically presets your lower body in an already rotated or
42
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.260
open position,
43
00:02:09.260 --> 00:02:14.060
and forces you to use the motorcycle, otherwise you would hit kind of this high
44
00:02:14.060 --> 00:02:14.660
fade.
45
00:02:14.660 --> 00:02:19.940
So I'll show you what most of you will probably want to do, which would be kind
46
00:02:19.940 --> 00:02:20.860
of like so,
47
00:02:20.860 --> 00:02:23.660
I think I almost hit made contact with the stick.
48
00:02:23.660 --> 00:02:30.400
So it forces that early motorcycle, there's that motorcycle move, and then
49
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:31.540
keeping those
50
00:02:31.540 --> 00:02:34.380
arms in close as I extend.
51
00:02:34.380 --> 00:02:39.000
So Trivino drill, a great path drill for helping you overcome using the path to
52
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:39.580
square the
53
00:02:39.580 --> 00:02:39.940
face.
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200

open, 30-40
14
00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:39.500
degrees.

arms in close as I extend.
51
00:02:34.380 --> 00:02:39.000
So Trivino drill, a great path drill for helping you overcome using the path to
52
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:39.580
square the
53
00:02:39.580 --> 00:02:39.940
face.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200
This is my view of the Trevino drill.
2
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:08.400
Now the Trevino drill is a great drill for feeling the path of the club because
3
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:08.880
it basically
4
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:13.660
exaggerates and into out path and forces you to square the club face in a
5
00:00:13.660 --> 00:00:14.440
different way
6
00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:16.040
than using the path.
7
00:00:16.040 --> 00:00:19.820
So the Trevino drill, basically what you're going to do, here's my visual
8
00:00:19.820 --> 00:00:20.560
alignment.
9
00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:24.960
So we have target line midway between my feet 45-45.

I'm going to get into my setup position, but instead of having my body square
11
00:00:29.580 --> 00:00:30.920
to the target,
12
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:36.860
I'm going to position my body, kind of like the Trevino, so that it is wide
13
00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:38.500
open, 30-40
14
00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:39.500
degrees.
15
00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.180
So I'm going to do it just square to this 45 degree line.
16
00:00:42.180 --> 00:00:48.350
And then basically what I can try to do is from here, I'm going to try to get
17
00:00:48.350 --> 00:00:49.160
the club
18
00:00:49.160 --> 00:00:54.020
to hit the ball straight with a nice little, even slight draw.
19
00:00:54.020 --> 00:00:58.100
So the only way that that's going to happen is I'm going to have to come from
20
00:00:58.100 --> 00:00:59.040
the inside,
21
00:00:59.040 --> 00:01:02.420
which means that my arms are going to be relatively close to my body, so it
22
00:01:02.420 --> 00:01:03.580
kind of helps reinforce
23
00:01:03.580 --> 00:01:07.160
that delivery position and shallowing move from the arms.
24
00:01:07.160 --> 00:01:11.260
And I'm going to have to square the club face with just the motorcycle.
25
00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:14.780
What a lot of golfers do is they use the path to get the club face square, but
26
00:01:14.780 --> 00:01:15.340
if I were
27
00:01:15.340 --> 00:01:20.800
to do that on this shot with an open club face, I would hit kind of a high flop
28
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:22.740
shot-type model.
29
00:01:22.740 --> 00:01:24.540
So we'll demonstrate one or two.
30
00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:28.820
So basically here I am in this exaggerated setup position.
31
00:01:28.820 --> 00:01:33.670
I'm going to come back to almost nine to three, and then I'm going to basically
32
00:01:33.670 --> 00:01:34.060
come
33
00:01:34.060 --> 00:01:37.400
through just like so, and it gives me this good feeling of my arms kind of
34
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:37.980
close to my
35
00:01:37.980 --> 00:01:41.620
body and then extending on the way through.
36
00:01:41.620 --> 00:01:50.100
Once I have a good feeling of what it's like to basically come from the inside,
37
00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:50.180
once I
38
00:01:50.180 --> 00:01:56.570
have that good feeling, now I can set up square, and I can try to just use body
39
00:01:56.570 --> 00:01:57.580
rotation to
40
00:01:57.580 --> 00:02:01.340
basically recreate that feeling.
41
00:02:01.340 --> 00:02:07.280
So it's a good- it basically presets your lower body in an already rotated or
42
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.260
open position,
43
00:02:09.260 --> 00:02:14.060
and forces you to use the motorcycle, otherwise you would hit kind of this high
44
00:02:14.060 --> 00:02:14.660
fade.
45
00:02:14.660 --> 00:02:19.940
So I'll show you what most of you will probably want to do, which would be kind
46
00:02:19.940 --> 00:02:20.860
of like so,
47
00:02:20.860 --> 00:02:23.660
I think I almost hit made contact with the stick.
48
00:02:23.660 --> 00:02:30.400
So it forces that early motorcycle, there's that motorcycle move, and then
49
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:31.540
keeping those
50
00:02:31.540 --> 00:02:34.380
arms in close as I extend.
51
00:02:34.380 --> 00:02:39.000
So Trivino drill, a great path drill for helping you overcome using the path to
52
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:39.580
square the
53
00:02:39.580 --> 00:02:39.940
face.
