The Breakback Drill

The Breakback Drill

Ever wonder how the best players create effortless lag and power? In this week’s Lesson of the Week, high-performance coach Max Kettler from Altus Performance breaks down the Breakback Drill—a simple move that helps you sequence your body correctly and generate real lag in your downswing. He explains how proper footwork and timing let you transfer energy from the ground up, and how Sir Nick Faldo’s signature shoe, the NF1990MO, helps you stay grounded, stable, and explosive through every swing.
