Jimmy your channel is by far the best golf channel on youtube. I've taken lessons from different instructors, wasted a shit ton of money on training aids and other shit, and saw minimal improvement with my swing. This video hands down changed my swing and my game and instilled a lot more confidence. I literally went through every club in my bag and incorporated this swing concept and hit every single club further than I ever have without trying to crush the ball. Turn it, leave it and go! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
As I've aged, now 68, my swing has shortened but I still hit it long. But my friends were always commenting on how short my swing has gotten. An insructor at GT kept trying to get me to make a bigger hip and shoulder turn to unleash even more power he beleived I was not taking advantage of with my short swing. Well, my back and body just don't won't allow me to take a longer swing without really straining and I'm way less consistent hitting the sweet spot. When I do, yea, I can hit it a little further. But Its just not worth it. This video and your other one on "Half Swing" made me realize I'm ok just staying with my short swing and I still hit it past all of my buddies. So thanks for reinforcing this valuable concept!! it Absolutely works. Love it.
I used this mindset the last two times I played. I only played 9 the first time and shot 42, today I played 18 at a championship course and shot 87. I normally start getting frustrated. Not today, I was totally unbothered by bad shots. In fact, I followed up my doubles with pars today.This is such great info for people!
Love to hear this!!! Thanks for watching. -Jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
I played golf for 16 years but I have never had any body show me this way. I started playing your style, man it was amazing how much Confidence 8:37 I gained and easily won it. Thank you so much Jimmy for showing us your technique.❤👍👏😆
I have listened to so much “instruction“ on the Internet that I’m in knots. I played baseball my whole life, including at the college level and I could immediately relate to this. I have an open acre in the back yard and started hitting 52° in my yard and started smoking’ the ball. This is the best instruction I’ve ever received and I’m 72 years old. The ball is firing off the club.
love to hear it. thanks for watching
First time viewer from the home of golf, Scotland. Love your stuff. I’m a disciple now man. Keep it simple. I am screwing up my 11 hcap swing looking for the single figure bullet. Going to work on this repeating swing. ⛳️💙🇺🇸🏴
Shot an 81 today. I took all of your advice and it worked! On a Par 5 I decided to go out of your advice and blew it! Lessons learned and am improving thanks to you!!
Amazing!!! Thanks for watching
Excellent videos & instruction. Please keep on uploading them. I play lots of shots like the one you played at 24'24". I take my hat off to you for not editing it out.
golf happens! thanks for watching. - jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
I've played golf for years. I've watched everything on TH-cam possible. My biggest frustration is consistency. That's my number one goal this year. I watched your videos last night. I played this morning. I kept it so simple just like you say. I shot 81 with no penalties and it was a very stress free fun round of golf. Thanks so much for the videos.
I love to hear that! Thanks for watching. -Jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
@@TropicanaEntertainment I will definitely share your channel with some of my friends!! My irons were pure all day!!
Your vids are really great for handicap golfers & showing without cuts adds credibility 100%. Great approach to teaching the swing, with the 'wave at the camera' and the shift to the left at the start of the downswing ( 'jacuzzi' got me thinking about a whole different approach to long putts) and the downward move of the right palm. It all works. In case some folk are confused re turning the shoulders, the reality, if you halt the downswing at impact, your chest still faces the ball, or just slightly ahead of it, the full turn to face the target completes the follow through....
sounds like you have it figured out. Thanks for watching. - Jimmy Tropicana tropicanagolfshop.com/collections/tropicana-merch
It works!!!! Listen to him guys 🎉 Crushing the ball❤
Thanks!!
@TropicanaEntertainment 😎 cheers and thank you!
Hi Jimmy .. recently had lessons but didn’t help & changed my swing back after watching these videos .. gotta say I’m enjoying my golf again & striking it better 💪🏻 keep up the good work fella . Straight advice
I LOVE to hear that. Thanks for watching. -Jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
I love a simple swing thought. I’ll be all over this next round. 🤙
Since watching you and your style and mental attitude toward the game. Mine has improved. Thanks Jimmy!
I love to hear that!! thanks for watching
Thank you so much, my golf game has been in a weird space of recent and I've taken all fun out of the game, today I enjoyed 18 holes of ball crunching ! Zero swing thoughts aside from "swing to your shoulder, leave them there and turn back". Fair play to you sir 👍🏽
Butter bing butter boom from Thorpe Bay England. Just played your method this morning was a pleasure to play knowing you can repeat your shots time and again. Tried years to hit ball then turf with this method didn’t even think about it just happened naturally. Thanks Jimmy
alright mike! glad it worked. thanks for watching. www.tropicanagolfshop.com - jimmy
Thanks Jimmy ! Let me tell you I've been studying the golf swing for many years explained by most of the great players of the game , I took the game up when I was 28 and now I'm 65 and play and practice every chance I get since then , I remember one golf swing footage explanation that was in black and white and this man said just turn and take the club back and up as you are showing then he said now you are ready hit the ball , Just turn your body toward the target and hit the ball , And he demonstrated and it looked just like what your doing , So perfect and and powerful with balance , You are so correct in what you are now doing , Thank You for this Video , And I Think Mister Hogan would strongly Agree !
I love to hear this. I hope it helps you
This is the best one yet. I took this thought to the range and I'll be darned. It works great and keeps my mind uncluttered. Thanks Jimmy!
Love to hear it. Thanks for watching
This is Gold!! Would love to see more on this swing thought
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching. More coming soon.
Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy! You stole my stuff! Well at least now I don’t have to start my own golf TH-cam Channel. I call what you’re saying many different things to help people get it.
“Get to the top and hold your angles “
“Rotate your hitting unit down to the ball”
“Also I tell them there is no down I the golf swing “
And for back up as I see you have a doubter or two this is what the guru Greg McHatton teaches! He calls it “hitting the ball as late in the swing as possible “!!
Great Video Jimmy!!!
its working great for me! thanks for watching
Jimmy watched your video and the light went on next day playing in my monthly match I was killing it . Great swing thought. Thank you
Incredible observation! The sound trigger is gold! My swing is a series of moments; the more I add, the more complex the swing becomes. This simplifies everything.
That swing thought is money! Shot 81 today after watching and 93 two days ago. Driver felt awesome with this swing, just got to keep head down into impact as Jimmy says 👌🏼
I love it. Thanks for watching! Good luck
Awesome nice and simple ❤love to see more holes. I cant wait to try this! Thanks 😄
Great video, can't wait to give it a try, sweet and simple.
thanks for watching Bill
You are such a student of the swing! Thanks for applying, translating and teaching!
thanks for watching!!
Well done my man. I watch all the big golf channels on TH-cam and you do a great job of simplifying the process.
Wow...great explanation of how to swing the club with power...swing to the shoulders then turn the body...I'm adopting this practice!!!
Let me know how it works for you
Just went out and cracked some whiffle balls doing this. Amazing how the arms just drop in place without thinking about it. All the bs swing tweaks in my head and this is so simple. Thanks Jimmy!
Love to hear it! Thanks for watching
Excellent insight, you have a good swing, and besides not being dialed into the speed of the greens, you probably break 80, so you are a helluva golfer. This is my first glimpse at your incredulous nature at coming upon a holy grail of a sort. I mean, my problem is over swinging, so this style of execution can; perhaps, pull my head out of my backside, so I thank you for that in advance; because I know you are sincere...well done.
Thanks, Jimmy! I played a really bad round on Saturday and felt my backswing was a mess. Back to the drawing board this week to simplify the process. A 50 degree shot like that speaks for itself. You are generating great power.
Its true. Pounding the ball lately. Thanks for watching
wow Jimmy, this is by far the best tip & swing thought I’ve ever saw on youtube. I play golf for a little more then 10 years now and am just in single figures but always struggled with my driver (slices). The idea of only letting your arms to help you to the top of your backswing and then their work is done, is so liberating. It becomes almost impossible to come over the top then. Thanks for these videos and greetings from Belgium 🤘
Thanks for pointing out the cause-effect relationships between excessive movement and the golf swing. Your teaching method is organized, straightforward, AND SIMPLE. By the way, the mechanics of the hips turning to swing the club (arms) are identical to throwing a right or left hook in boxing. The hips are involved. They move the arms to generate power (without the haymaker "backswing"). Thanks to your swing demonstration I am able to see a correlation between the two.
Great video. Really helped me today. Repeated the mantra before every shot. Most difficult for me: Keep your head still 🤔. When I do it, good things happen. Thank you.
Love to hear this. Thanks for watching
Jimmy ,I got tickeled watching You get Excited .Great simple swing thought!! Gonna try it Today!!!
BOOM! Hope it works for you
Thank you so much for this video. You are the man!!!
Game changer
Hey Robert, Thanks for watching. -Jimmy Tropicana www.tropicanagolfshop.com
Your videos really help me. My game has been trash for years. Its coming along now hitting a few draws and getting the ball 🏀 going forward

You are awesome man. I love your mental game. You've changed my life brother.
Wow. Im so happy to hear that. Thanks for watching
Funny.. doing a version of this right now! I would ADD for "me"..perhaps only me, I lose "all tension" in my arms hands and wrists. I feel like I am holding an infant at the top of the swing...I mean "ridiculously" light arms. From there the club goes flying through the bottom with no effort. Its insane. Just bombing the ball. Soooo much fun! Love your videos...
Hahaha. An infant?!?! Wow. Hey if it works, do it
Thanks Jimmy! Your making the game fun again!
Im glad to help. Thanks for watching
61 and coming back to the game after about 12 years. Always struggling with over top swing. I get so jacked over the ball and swing for the fences. I know what to do but 100’s of swing thoughts in my head don’t help. Watched the video and went out back to hit some 9 irons. This was the easiest swing thought I’ve ever used. Now just have to learn to take it to the course. thanks for the advice.
This is what the golf instructors don't teach, it's brilliant! Ben Hogan and Top speed style
exactly. smooth it out!!
Jimmy, that is a beautiful, powerful, uncomplicated swing.
Thanks paul. Thanks for watching
Jimmy T! One of your best sesh’s! 24:20 was classic, & great lesson for all to just laugh it off “we’re not that good!” I bet you had too much club & swung a little harder than you intended
Taken me 40 years to swallow my pride & hit
PW back in play
its just golf man. gotta laugh about it.
Long time out of golf mate, and loving these lessons. One time 12 handicapper, playing to 23 on first 3 rounds back. Will be using your common sense approach!
Lee from Oz
Love your videos and you make the swing the easiest i have ever seen. I use your method and hit alot of fairways and greens...plus my chipping with my 56 degree is awesome. However, can you do some videos where you show ball position for all your irons. Thanks Jimmy ⛳
I can’t wait till tomorrow to give this a go, so you’re telling me I don’t have to think about caulking my wrist. Wondering if I’m rolling my wrist wondering if I’m inside out wondering if I’m outside in wondering if I’m going to hit another big‘s slice! If this works this is awesome I can’t wait to try to groove this with a simple thought
think less. be smooth. it'll work
Impressive. Looks easy and fun. I will incorporate.
Man - Jimmy you break it down so well - first time after years of hearing after arms at shoulder to turn belly button toward target..feels perfect..a-ha moment..everything is so spot on..do it slowly..key.
Jimmy, I love your videos and your instruction. I spent 2 hours today at an indoor facility with Trackman. Driver wouldn't go more than 170, 7 iron was less than 120, 9 iron almost 90 yards. For some reason, I just can't do what you do. Likely never will.
I know trackman is close but see what it does in real life.
Great job Jimmy!
...still listening...
That last putt hit the hole, but had too much juice on it. Enjoyed the video!! Thanks.
Thanks for watching. - jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
Love those pelicans on the course. All we have is Canadian Geese.
Thank you for your excellent videos, i dropped 10 handicaps from 105 to 95, after watching your video on hitting 90. Definitely will try this ‘new’ techniques this video, and I am hoping will break 90 soon.
keep working. it'll happen. good luck
@@TropicanaEntertainment I hit my first 90 yesterday. The first nine holes I shot 49, the last nine surprised myself at 41. Thank you so much for your tips. I know I could be just lucky, but I also know I am moving forward.
Nice one jimmy. .just goes to show you are Human like the rest of us with that shot out of the rough...but another brilliant video...look jimmy i am a newbie to your Channel and loving It....Not sure if you have covered the correct Grip which is Important as anything I am told...i have been trying to find this particular subject and your take on the grip but as of yet unable to find it..i'd appreciate it if you could point me in the Right direction.. Many thank jimmy great work and so easy to follow.
Great video Jimmy.
Loved that you duffed that ball in the rough after a good drive because that always seems to happen to me 😂 going to try this out my round for sure though.
let me know how it works for you.
This is great Jimmy, thanks but I am confused about release. If I simply turn my body the club seems to be in the wrong place … cheers fella …
ill make more videos about it. watch a few more and you'll understand it. thanks for watching
You're hammering it!! I can't wait to try this out
Let me know how it goes
Yup. Absolutely effin’ correct. Truth.

This is something im currently transitioning to. Been hitting the ball cleaner and more consistently when I do it right. But sometimes still get armsy.

“i could chank it”
thought pollo was talking for a second🤣
Hahahahhaah
Good stuff Jimmy👍🏻
Thanks dave
More Jimmy Gold.
im glad you like it. thanks for watching

Almost trip over myself when a new vid drops. 8-)
Love to hear it Neil. Get out there and PLAY!

🎉😊 another great vid
Yay, thank you!Thanks for watching. -Jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
Weird but I have this same style with the chuck-it I use to throw a tennis ball to my dog. Without thinking, I keep my elbow tucked to my side, turn, and include a slight wrist action that adds a little more power right before I release it.
thanks for watching! -jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
@@TropicanaEntertainment you're welcome--possibly the most helpful tip/reminder I've ever gotten from TH-cam, and I watch a lot golf videos! Well done!
I lost it at the EH. EH. EH. 😂
It's funny, you are a good golfer, and you also do worm burn shots! Thanks
So do pros on occasion. Pros shank shots, too. Pros miss easy putts as well.
Everyone hits bad shots. Part of the game
Great video Jim, your a natural.
Any chance of putting shot traces on ?
The best tip of all is that when you are on the green relatively close to the hole, just tell yourself a 5' foot putt is only 2' or that an 8' putt is only a 5 footer. 😄
This guy is the best!
Wish you do a video on how far away should we be when we are swinging around are body . I feel like I’m too far away. Or on top of it
Love your videos! FYI pleats are out.
Oh Tom, if I followed trends I’d be wearing joggers and a hoodie with nike track shoes. I wear what I like and what I think is appropriate for a man of my age. Thanks for watching
great video.
Q: when you turn forward (downswing) do you "feel" like you are swinging with your right shoulder, or just turning your belt buckle to the target and not thinking at all about your shoulder/hands/club etc? also do you think about "bumping towards target" at the top of your backswing, or is the bumb forward just muscle memory at this point?
Im swinging with my lower body. Arms just go for a ride
Hammer, hammer, hammer! Good lord! Teach me.
Im trying!! Thanks for watching
@@TropicanaEntertainment can you confirm ball positions on all clubs because they are not closer to the right foot on all videos but I want to try.
Dang jimmy. I have watched every video u have made and the light bulb came on with this video. Great job. And thank u always for the great content. Where is Pollo by the way lol ?
Thanks for watching. Pollo is still around. He works a lot
Awesome stuff!! At the top of your back swing Is your right hand still in the “wave to camera” position? Thanks
Yes. Always wave. Then just stop, leave your hands there and turn.
Best idea ever!!!
Great video Jimmy! Often after striking the ball I find my arms begin to collapse and fold after hitting the ball and following through. Do your arms remain straight when following through and keep them going towards the target?
I make a V with my arms and point them at the target.
😂 those pelicans look just like our Canadian geese
FLYYYY PELICAN!
Pretty sure they're albatross.
Love your golf videos.
Instructive and entertaining.
No ornithologist though
Those are Canada Geese!!😂
Tiger needs to watch this he hits the ball out of bounds allot
Gotta try this before a thumbs up or down. Gonna try this on the weekend. I’m skeptical.150 yards with a gap wedge. Really? I’ll know over the weekend. Even 150 yards with a pitching wedge would put one on a pro level!
Good video Jimmy, does your lower back get sore swinging like that,man i got to do something else,i hit a 5 iron for 150 shot,i am 63 tho and play with blades but i sould be farther for sure.
I feel good!!! -james brown
@@TropicanaEntertainment You feel nice, like sugar and spice.
