    Your videos are always just what I’m needing! I’m a beginner girl and I struggle a bit because I used to do ballet so I’m almost too flexible but I watch your videos everyday and I’ve seen a huge improvement. I hit 85 with my 7 iron the other day which I’m so proud of, I haven’t done it since but I’ll get there. Thank you Eric!

    Have no doubt this is good, correct advice. But it’s a lot easier said than done when you are a somewhat overweight 83 year old, even if you have played for over 60 years and practice a lot. For me, the things that produce good shots are posture at address (in particular leaning just a tiny bit forward over the ball and keeping that spine angle as I turn my shoulders in the backswing), getting my weight on to my left (lead) leg, and keeping my head back behind the ball. I also am trying to keep my left arm straighter in the backswing as the camera in the PGA Superstore practice bay shows it’s easy to unconsciously let the left arm bend or buckle. Also tell my self to reach back to widen the backswing, keeping the hands away from the shoulder, which goes along with that straighter left arm. Almost a sensation of throwing the club back and away. Make the backswing start a little faster in a more free flowing movement (following the instructions Dr Kwon gives players) that encourages a full turn back and a tiny pause at the top as the club changes direction and begins the downswing. Keeping the shoulders still turned back as the downswing begins so the clubs comes down in the slot from inside and not over the top. And keeping my left wrist bowed slightly. This is a lot to think about but it becomes more natural with repetition and practice. And if I get all this right or nearly right, I find my hips seem to rotate open without conscious effort. But what I find nearly impossible is to get fully into the position you show with chest up to the sky, shoulders tilted, hips forward and head bent back. Just trying this in my living room now makes it pretty clear my spine won’t flex that much. I can easily touch my toes even with fingers bent, so am fairly flexible for my age. It’s the backward bend that feels hard. Will have to take videos to get a better idea of how I actually move.

  • @joeidaho5938

    Ya....even if I'm making ok contact, the big difference between a fabulous hit...and a passable hit...is both being in balance...whipping through contact...and coming down and through with my trailing shoulder. The rest actually takes care of itself, in regard to neck, head and chest. They automatically fall into position when you make the shoulder coming down and through pronounced. For accuracy, the key part is timing of the body swivel...and the club contact. It's too easy to not have a clear target in mind when swinging through.

    @joeidaho5938 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In the end, it's not about paying attention to all these details. Swing thoughts have to be simple. These videos so often are simply over-doing the mind part. There are very simple principles to keep in mind for a great swing....but that doesn't make money for instructors....lol.

    • @MB-rh3ym
      @MB-rh3ym 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you want to play solid golf, it’s all about proper swing mechanics (the details). Get them right, and practice until you don’t have to think about. Some guys are fine to hack it around with their buddies for 95. Nothing wrong with that if it makes you happy.

    • @joeidaho5938
      @joeidaho5938 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@MB-rh3ym I agree that the details are important, but there is a point where you get things in place...and move on to the next thing. ...and move on to the practice...and getting proper swing aspects absolutely ingrained. The problem with TH-cam...and I see it in friends who keep saying they're confused about all the opinions...is often that people go from one video to another and it often becomes a jumble in their mind, where they feel they are not in control any longer. I think the learning curve has been shortened tremendously by TH-cam, but, at the same time, one has to absolutely have the discipline to shut off the outside world....and think things through for oneself. When an important aspect is in place...and it works, people have to learn to shut off the barrage of info....so they can move to the next part that THEY need to get in place. And then, at a certain point, it's best to just shut it off, if practice is what is needed, rather than obsessing about information. I know I rambled, but hope I made my point. Information overload is not good for golfer improvement.

      Hey Joe! Thanks for the thoughts! I hear ya
      Too much info is definitely not good......
      But if you want to improve your current swing/game...
      too little can be just as bad :)
      Over my last 15 years of coaching I see lots of golfers out there not thinking about anything who stink and never get any better as much as those who think too much :)
