This should have been the first advise years ago. With new golfers 90% of their problems off the tee is that they raise their head too soon looking for the ball. This results in missed hits, turned club faces, topped dribbles, duck hooks, and nasty slices into the brush.

Can't understand why it took years for anyone to mention this basic fix.
