I have the exact same problem.

Thanks, I will try these. I also heard of the Right Foot Drill which is similar to #4 above. You setup with your left foot behind your right foot (when looking down the line) and then hit the ball.

I do many things wrong but this has been my nemesis. My wife has instructions to remind me to keep my heel down prior to a shot when we play together! Unfortunately, that also means that after every bad shot (due to this reason) she tells me that my right heel was off the ground when my club was still 2 feet from impact!!

Truthfully I forget. Particularly when driving or hitting a long shot. My mental, gorilla thing of "you have to hit it hard" takes over.
The only thing I have tried to do consistently as a reminder is to take a practice swing before hitting the ball with my feet together. (.............and even that sometimes does not work.)

    • Heh. Seems to me like he is playing psychological games. I guess that's one way to condition yourself to go low.  IDK about this one but in general I think Paddy H is one cool fella. Would love to play a round for fun with him.

    • I think they’re just mulligans. Seems like you get two per shot basically. It doesn’t seem to be a scramble because at the end of the video he chips up from the penalty area, he does it twice and his first shot was closer, but he putter from the second one.
