Thank you for your kind comment. Are you a golf coach yourself? Would you care to upload a video of your coaching?

It's likely that I'm the problem 😂 , but sure, feel free to share. Thanks!

All good buddy. Just gives even more opportunity to get even better, and improve longevity at the same time 👌 And thanks for allowing me to film our latest lesson. That was fun to do!

Hi Steve, thanks for watching, and I hope it helps on the path to improving your impact position, too 👍

@dannymalcolmgolf I have already been reaping the Benefits Danny, because I have been watching your channel for some time now and employing these feels and my shots are flying on a more penetrating trajectory (instead of high and weak) and I am not only hitting fairways (I play mainly irons off the tees because the course I live on promotes even great drives to roll into the trees) but my pattern dispersion between, say three or four practice shots sometimes could fit under a large tarp (5 iron).

Most (not all) everyday golfers that I see on a daily basis struggle with the release, trying to steer the ball, losing distance and typically big slices, and therefore need more of point no.3

Great! Your skills are sure to improve with these 👍

Good call 😂👌

I haven’t seen those, Peter. But they sound like fun 👊🔥

@ helps find the ground. Keeps your hips more level in the swing so you are less likely to slide & get your hips under. Lateral shifts

🏋🏻‍♂️

Thank you for the kind feedback, Peter. I hope it helps!

Hi @Plugger. Thank you for the kind feedback. I hope it helps! Thank you for subscribing 🙏

Haha! I've never seen that film. Is it worth watching?

Hi Mr Pernest. Thank you for the kind feedback. I hope it helps you with your wedge trajectory control.

You’re welcome, Roger! I hope the steps help 👍

Thanks, Eric I hope it helps 👍

Yes. However if you just go all lower body, it's easy for the upper body to have too much right side bend (resulting in ground contact too early). If you're working with irons in particular, be sure to have your lower and upper shifting toward the target in the downswing. Hard to say exactly what is needed without seeing your golf swing, but I hope that helps as a starting point. Danny

Hey Gary, thank you for your comment. That makes sense. Typically adding in hard rotation (body pivot) in the downswing, is a steepening move. I.e. hand path will work more out toward the ball and the shaft pitch may get steeper. Both of which will encourage a more out to in swing path. It sounds like reducing the rotation as you lower the hands and arms is something that may help. Next step will be matching up/closing the clubface. I hope that helps. Danny

Hi Bruce! Thank you for your kind feedback. To reduce spin, you need to reduce spin loft and speed. To increase spin, increase spin loft and increase speed. Gear effect will also play a part in spin rates as discussed in the video. I hope it helps 👍

Spin loft is the three-dimensional angle between the direction the club head is moving (both club path and attack angle) and the direction the club face is pointing (both face angle and dynamic loft)

Thanks for your comment, Derek. I was. They were my first woods, hand downs from my father, we didn’t have the money for the latest equipment. (I should have mentioned that in the video). You are right, my first proper driver my dad bought me once he saw how much I was enjoying golf was a £50 hippo titanium, followed by the callaway BIGGEST big Bertha driver a year or two later. I still love it on the rare occasion when a client comes in with one of these in their bags 🙌

And I’m not an influencer. I’m a golf coach ⛳️

Pretty solid example there, Kevin 👌👐

Hi mate, thank you so much for the kind feedback. Yeah it's a great tool, that I use often in my coaching. Without that, the Ping optimal spin chart has all the info you need (so long as you have AOA and ball speed numbers). Thanks again 👍

I just use some blu tac. Blu tac, and a tee, the most cost effective training aid for clubface angle awareness on the market today 🙌

@@dannymalcolmgolf thanks

Thank you for your kind feedback! I hope it helps 🙏

Thanks for watching, Lenard 👍

Love it. Loading into the trail side 👌

😂👍

Yes you can. Have to use your hands though and lots of wrist. 😂

@@jasonbourne488 aye mate! I can still switch hands and gain a stroke!

@@jessecooper9795 😆😆😆🤪🤪

Hi Jon, that would have been pretty awesome to see! Wrists/hands are a huge power source

@dannymalcolmgolf it's my cousin and yes its impressive

@@jonstoops5850 Wow! Some player then. Just curious, what handicap are they playing off?

Ya but he is connected to the ground. Could he do it on ice?

I would think through the ball AND afterwards, but I would be interested to see what Danny says.

Hi Harley. Firstly, it's so awesome to hear that you're getting back in to golf. Secondly, for full swings, the release will be roughly around P6 (final shaft parallel), as the butt of the club slows down, moving in and up, allowing for delivery of maximum club head speed at the impact interval. All the best in your journey back in the game! 👍

👍

Thanks for the feedback. Clubface control is always difficult. That’s why I encourage most players to have a trusted / favoured shot shape. Gives more Margin for face control. Thanks for watching 🙏

Thank you for the feedback. I hope it helped!

Ahhh, the snap hooks! Hopefully the idea/drill shared in this video will save you a few balls on your next round 🙏

Hey mate! Yep, simple but not easy. Keep at it mate. As the saying goes "everything is hard, before it's easy". Or one of my favourites "Every master, was once a disaster". 👊

Hey Matt! Thanks! I hope you and your family are well.

@@dannymalcolmgolf thanks Danny, going well, hope the same on your end 🙂

This is true! Thanks 👍

Hey Steven, I'm glad you got some good info from the video! Yep, golf in a nutshell. Reminds me of one of the great Arnold Palmers quotes "Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated"! So true

Great question, Robert. For a slicer who typically opens up the body too soon, a good idea is to "feel" the shoulders closed, or back to the target for longer. Of course, this can be overdone, like anything, and if you also add in too much side bend, with lowering of the arms there's a good chance you'll drop the low point too far back, and hit the ground before the ball. I hope that helps.

I hope it helps! Thanks for watching

Actually, using the left side of the range is a great idea if you're trying to stop a slice, as it enables you to "swing out" toward the open area of the range (for the right hander). You just have to make sure you close your clubface to the path! A tip I was given by a top England coach when I was an amateur. I hope it helps!

Hey Tim. The face will always be closing relative to the arc in which it swings coming in to impact. Some players are a little more "toe up at P6 - delivery club parallel to ground" and some are a little more toe down, depending on match ups/ball flight preferences. Somewhere close to matching spine angle would be a good check point.

Thank you for the kind feedback. I hope it helps!

Glad it was helpful! And thank you so much for the kind feedback, and for subscribing 🙏

You're welcome, Leslie. I hope it helped!

Thank you for your feedback. I hope it helps!

Hey Rick! Yep, it can sometimes be a case of fixing the path first. It's different for everyone. In my experience, the face has generally been the go to initially, for a greater majority. Thanks for watching 👍

Basically, yep! It's all about finding the right match up. If the backswing has the hands very high, then the golfer will typically need more "dropping" of the hands early in the downswing. Conversely, if the hands are deeper at the top of the backswing, the player may benefit from a more "outward" hand path. Both can work beautifully when matched up.

Hey Stu, thanks for your comment. I hope you're on your way to finding the right match up for you with regards to your hips. Some players certainly could do with more hip rotation, this video is not to say it's not important. Just that I see a lot of golfers over doing it. It's all about finding the right amount for each golfer. Thanks for watching!
