Hit Down Dammit! by Clive Scarff
Most golfers have difficulty with the concept of hitting down at the ball to make it fly.Surprisingly, a great many players surveyed did not even know you need to hit down to get the ball up in the air. Hit Down Dammit concisely explains the concept - and the technique - of hitting down at the golf ball for proper trajectory, increased backspin, much improved distance, proper divot taking, and best of all: consistent shotmaking.If you are inadvertently - or intentionally - hitting up at the ball, Hit Down Dammit is for you. If you are a seasoned amateur who has inexplicably plateaud - just cannot seem to get to the next level despite lessons and/or acquiring a library of books and videos - Hit Down Dammit is for you.Symptoms of hitting up include (but are not limited to): - topping the ball - skulling the ball - pushing the ball - slicing the ball - poor distance - difficulty getting off back foot - poor backspin - no divot - fat divots - chunking the ball - thin/fat chip shots - roofing the ball with your driver - inability to hit long irons and/or fairway woods - good shots followed immediately by poor shots Hitting down at the golf ball is not a new concept, but it is a hitherto poorly explained (or completely avoided) concept. All pros agree on the need to hit down, so there is no debate there. Even Tiger Woods, in his 306 page How I Play Golf, states the need to hit down at the ball - but does not explain how. Hit Down Dammit does. Learn to hit down, watch the ball go up, and your scores go down.
Clive Scarff was born in Toronto and developed a love of writing at an early age. His first screenplay was produced and aired on the local cable channel when he was 13. At 14 he and his family moved to Melbourne, Australia, and in high school he was the first ever student to write a one-act play for the school's drama festival. From there Clive returned to Toronto to take Radio and TV Arts at Ryerson University, majoring in writing. This led to a first career, in television production, where he wrote for commercials, ethnic programming, a fishing show, Canada's Gemini Awards, and CTV's Winter and Summer Olympic coverage. In 1994 Clive took a chance to test his mettle in the world of golf, and successfully qualified to become a golf professional. His strength lay with teaching, and that teaching combined with his writing history led the creation of Hit Down Dammit! - a golf instructional book that explains the workings of the golf swing as it revolves around the physical need to hit down - not up - at a golf ball to make it go up, and straight. The success of Hit Down Dammit! opened a lot of doors; Clive now has a syndicated golf column, a series of instructional DVDs, and two more books on golf. Also completed is a screenplay on golf called Senior Tour and the pilot for a golf-themed fantasy/adventure show entitled Mystic Links. Clive resides in the golf mecca of Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia, Canada.
