Cardinal Q-School: The Straight Drive

Cardinal Q-School is a weekly, summer-long series on Ball State All-Access and BallStateSports.com. Check back every Monday morning during June, July and August for a golf practice tip or stroke saver that you can use. Each week a different golfer from both the BSU men's and women's teams will show you basic steps and techniques to do anything from hit a simple driver to getting out from behind the trees.

Cardinal Q-School's virtual instructors from the women's team include Jenna Hague, Sarah Westaway and Meghan Perry. Virtual instructors from the NCAA Championship qualifying men's team are Alex Stinson, Tony Lazzara and Tyler Merkel.
