How to do it
Stand facing a full-length mirror with a driver.
Build an iron setup first and look at how level your shoulders are.
Switch to a driver setup and tilt your upper body away from the target.
Check in the mirror that your shoulder line now tips down toward your trail side.
Alternate between the two setups 15 times so the difference registers.
Goal
Let the golfer see the difference between a level iron setup and a tilted driver setup.
Feel cue
Feel the tilt in the mirror look far bigger than it feels in your body.
Mistake to avoid
Dropping your trail shoulder by slumping it forward rather than tilting your whole upper body — a slumped shoulder rounds the back and does nothing for your launch angle.
