ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On TH-cam and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If it's a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

Another brilliant video Danny. I’m sure that I’m not alone when I say that I used to watch a range of different coaches. I only watch one now. As an ex headteacher I had the privilege of observing lots of really talented teachers. I therefore feel qualified to state that your ability to explain and demonstrate the key point in your lesson is exceptional. In such a short space of time, there’s no place in the golf swing for too many thoughts. Knowing where and when to strike the ball, together with the direction of the club face is everything. This video, in conjunction with the one that you posted last week make it so clear. I’ll be making these the focus of my time on the range and on the course. Thanks Danny.
Superbly said Jeff. The algorithim can, and will, send us many golf tips but these are lessons from a great teacher.
I fully agree with your statement, Jeff.
Thank you Jeff! Appreciate the compliment and feedback 😁
The real intended effort is so very clear in Danny’s videos. Very articulate from a beginners perspective
The visuals on your videos just keep improving! It really helps us focus on what is being referred to! Great job to the post prod team.
thanks so much John
Where were you when I needed you 20 years ago😉??? You make it so simple. Can't wait for warmer weather to try these concepts. Much appreciated, and really enjoy listening to someone who is also a student. Thank you!
Glad you’ve come across me now Michael! Thank you for your support 😊
I love the way you break things down so simply you've become my favorite youtube couch.
glad it’s helpful! Thank you for your support 😊
Danny,you have explained the demons I have had for 40 years brilliantly,I could never get an explanation to the arc and ended up like most people trying to hit it straight resulting in my handicap going from 4 to 15.
Shots ended up going to the left and eventually scared of hook creeping in
Straight to the practice range with the thought of putting the shaft on the bag
What a fantastic explanation of the club path and face orientation concept! You are a phenomenal instructor, Danny!
Been hitting golf balls my whole adult life and never gave this concept much thought. It needs to be a teaching point for anyone trying to explain the need to strike the ball first and then bottom out the head of the club and where the shaft should be in relation. Knowing this should be a fundamental element of the swing and then it needs a good instructor to show this concept in action.
Nice work Danny explaining a tough concept in the exact way it should be taught.
Thank you Devon 😁
Transformed my ball striking on the range instantly. Can’t wait to get out on the muddy coarse now. The woods we’re flying and the irons were going the distance an iron should go. Thanks Danny for the great video.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!
This really helps.
I’ve been a member since May 2022. Your weekly videos are so helpful.
I have always thought about this natural arc in the swing and I will admit I also often thought I should start my swing going in a straighter backswing because of the problems I've always had such as the problems you mentioned. Honestly, no one ever talks about this natural arc of the golf swing.
Thanks Danny for speaking to this natural part of the golf swing that no one talks about.
Really happy to help
Excellent explanation Danny. A similar tip I use is the feeling of hitting the ball towards 1 o’clock.
Thank you Peter 😁
I think this is your best video so far. Well done, Danny!! This one explains the arc of the swing the best I have ever heard!
Thanks 😁
Once again Danny you articulate the body mechanics and what goes on in the mind. You described me exactly and in your exaggerated practice shot with early cast and weight on back heel are my biggest problems. The results are exactly what you described, thin, very fat, a bullet straight left or the boomer slice. Brilliant coaching Danny
You're it for me! I'm always excited to play golf after moments with your wonderful videos! I can't believe I'm 87 and still challenge myself with fitness and GOLF! I'M SO LUCKY Danny...thanks so much. Barb
I create videos for people just like you Barbara. Thank you so much for feeding back
Excellent job Danny in describing how an "inverted circle" path and ball position determines ball flight! My swing is on an in to out path and as such I position my ball as you describe in this video. I also strive for a forearm rotation just prior to impact which usually gives me the draw that you refer to in this video! Well Done Danny!
A very interesting video. Your advice on ball position at address contadicts the advice that all golf pros, including yourself, have previously given.
In what way Chris? My perspective of ball position has remained the same since I’ve been an amateur. Anything behind the lead heel is where you position an iron as it’s before the low point. How much depends on club and how low you want the ball to go
Best teacher of the game on the internet. Thanks Danny!
Great visuals! I have not been playing and I starting to get back into it. The bag drill makes a lot of sense to me.
When I used to watch golf on TV I always thought the ball looked like it started off to the right. I thought that was just the camera angle or something with the TV screen. This makes so much sense now. It actually was starting right and coming back to the left.
Absolutely Tony
Hi Danny. Great video, this has helped my game no end. I tried putting a coin 2 inches in front of the ball and tried to launch it after hitting the ball. This made me focus on the point of contact on the ground. Excellent videos I have followed you for about 3 years, very professional. Thanks very much
Great video this week Daniel. The way you explain the correct swing motion from first principles and the ensuing ball trajectory are very comprehensive, i.e., simple yet captures only the important parts of the swing theory. Other online instructors tell this same story in different ways but not as comprehensively as you. Probably because you still teach students and are better aware of the pitfalls they may fall into when trying to incorporate your swing suggestions. It must be a challenge with the growing demands of online instruction business, continuing with instructing students in person but suggest you don't stop. Well done.
You might be the best out there Danny mate, so easy to understand and put into practice
Dear danny, your summary is something i worked on for a few weeks to figure out. Excellent information. Thanks! One piece that i thinknis important to mention is ball is closer to body in stance as ball is moved toward right foot. A good check for this for irons is to grip then right elbow at watch pocket for distance from ball.
Many thanks for the great tips in this video. I'm a longtime golfer, finally back down to a
10 hcp after a long layoff, but have been struggling with finding a consistent low point. Did just what you advised: moved the ball back an inch or so, closed the club face slightly, and presto, instant improvement in ball contact/compression and trajectory along with a nice baby draw. You're the best Danny Boy!
Fabulous explanation of what we should be trying to achieve with the golf swing. I'm sure i speak for many when i say a great thank you for providing such clear and concise information which should help us all improve our golf game.
Really happy to help Terry
I've been fighting hitting left hooks and now I see clearly my ball position relative to my swing arc has been off by almost two inches. This had me hitting the ground early and pulling shots.
Now setting up with low point target side of the ball and I'm hoping I can get some good consistency for a change. 🙏
Excellent explanation and I'm this will really help me lock in the final touches with my irons and woods. Just one thing I wish was included is a center line in the stance and showing the ball position from that line. But it totally makes now!
Took this feeling (used my sons plastic cricket bat in the house as you’ve suggested for the feeling) and man does it work. Brilliant. It works.
This may explain why my shots are always going straight right as I have been focusing more on trying to hit ball before divot. With defo be giving this a try thanks for sharing great video
Always enjoy your lessons Danny, keep them coming.
Thank you Warwick 😁
I am guilty of trying to hit it square so this really makes sense and most of my shots were going to the left. Thanks for this😊
I love this thank you! Do you have another video that explains these same concepts but for driver?
Another great explanation by Danny. Thanks!
Brilliant Danny! I was hitting the ball cleanly but always way to the left. THANK YOU!
Happy to help Steven!
Genius stuff Danny! I struggled with a slice for years (decades). The last few years of taking your video diary onto the range and course have made golf much more fun. Just understanding what goes wrong and why has helped massively. Keep up the great work. Thanks.
Thank you John!
That explains so much! That gives me new confidence in my natural draw swing, now I know I don't need to fight it.
Absolutely Bob
Down from Buenos Aires.. You are so clear, simple and warm! It’s a pleasure to learn from you this not so pleasurable sport!!!
Happy to help
Danny, Great video! As a mechanical engineer I understood everything you described, perfectly. However, you were brief in describing closing the club face slightly to counter balance hitting out to the right too much (or, out to the left for a lefty). A little more attention to that detail, for clarity, may have been ideal. Thank you again!
Danny I just want to say thank you thank you thank you. My current handicap is 12.1 and with this and last weeks lesson I believe I’ll get to signal digits. You addressed exactly what I’ve been struggling with.
Your the best
Thank you Dan 😁
Really great Danny. I’ve understood the club path bit for a while. But your imagery of the shaft contacting the bag has made a huge difference in the quality of the strike! A bit more prone to pulls/pull hooks. Perhaps a club face adjustment at setup? Thanks for all the help.
This makes so much sense, I've recently come back to the game. I've not been on a course yet, as I've been trying to radial in. What I used to be able to do, with this drill a swing method. Will this also help/improve contact with the ball, as my biggest problem right now. Is being able to hit the sweet spot, centering the ball on the club face
Worked great with my 7wood. Great I instruction
Thanks again Danny. The swing circle really improved my game this season.
Glad to hear it Alan 👍
your visualization of the swing real clarified a lot. I was doing all the mistakes you mentioned. To sum it up I was adjusting my swing to the ball position instead of keeping my swing then adjusting the ball position. Makes perfect sense now. Thank you so much. Brilliant!!! I believe you are the best at illustration that I can understand.
Thank you Curt 😁
Another great video Danny, but doesn’t hitting down on the ball when the ground is soft take the power out of the shot? Or am I missing something.
Hey there Danny. I just love your golf tips. They are straight forward and easy to follow. Thanks.
Really kind thank you
your a great coach, thank you.
Very helpful video Danny I will practice it 😊
Love your videos make easy for me to understand …I’m new to Golf and am naturally hitting Irons well and straight with a set up more like the driver set up you demoed but am going to try this version now..
Thank you Dan 😁
Omg this is exactly what I’m experiencing ! Brilliant video. I struggled today with 45 minutes of fat weak slices. I moved ball back and hit great shots. I still did not believe it as ball felt way back. As usual Danny you hour it in the head. Your the best on the the planet! Tx!
Thank you John 😁
Great lesson Danny, lots to take in here. Struggling lately with extremely steep divots. Would love to see a lesson on that sometime in the future. I can’t tell if I’m hitting down too much, or getting way too ahead or just not releasing the club early enough. It’s even worse now on this really soggy ground 😂😂
You have a lot of great instruction video’s. This was is exceptionally good. Top.
Great visual!!!
Your previous video about visualizing hammering a nail worked wonders for contact. Except for the times I fatted it. I think this video helps explain why - I'm trying to get the club face going straight at the target at impact, not swinging to the right. I'm going to try that next but I anticipate having to overcome some mental resistance. Keep the tips coming - they're really helping!
Happy to help 😁
I'm a complete beginner... 2 weeks into swinging a club and 2 days from playing my first round.
This video was incredibly eye opening and mind blowing!
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Not going to read all the comment to see if anyone else mentions this, but I've been taught to keep the ball placement slightly forward of middle stance for iron except wedges for most full stock swings, especially fairway woods. Before I took lesson I was putting the ball either in the middle for most irons except 3 or 4 irons, and just before for shorter iron and in middle for fairway woods. Coaches told me wrong. I should move the ball forward and my low point of my swing arc should be just in front of the ball even with the ball slightly forward. I've heard some say it wasn't as important where the ball was as long as it was close to center and you hit ball 1st then divot, except driver, obviously, to hit up on a teed up ball. So many different teachings confuse the amateurs.
I have been placing the ball for 8 iron and longer slightly forward nowadays and either middle or slightly back for 9 and wedges because of lessons taught. But I find myself pulling and hooks. Hands/shaft forward is easier with ball centered or behind to me, but I keep listening to coaches from the past. Ready to abandon that idea and go back to ball mostly in center again except for driver and long irons if I use a tee for the 3, or 4 on par 3's. I'm older now, but I was doing just fine killing my 9 iron 150 with ball in back slight playing a high draw., not a stinger type low draw shot. May not have been the right way like a pro would, but it worked and that was back in early 90's before all these improved clubs came out.
Any thoughts??
I think that sounds perfect, as long as your ball is behind your low point you increase your chances of striking it properly
Pure gold Danny! Folks just need to be prepared to hit some wicked pull hooks and push fades initially. It is part of the learning process. Eventually, the ball will do just as yours, start to the right and curve back to the left.
So true
Hi Danny, thanks again for the latest great tutorial.
I am 82 years old and have been watching your lessons, in particular for older people, but have learnt so much from you with all the videos I have seen!
One question I have is, 'when setting up to hit the ball where are your eyes focusing? are they at the back of the ball or the front?'
I ask this as I have had conflicting answers to this question over the years!!! Gerald
Wow wow and wow! I play off 9 and last few rounds I’ve really struggled and got in my pwn head with negative thoughts. Just tired these tactics in the net and was back to flushing it again. Thanks so much Danny, love your tips and techniques!
Happy to help!
Brilliant video. Hadn't seen that explained before and i think it will really help.
Thanks Jack!
Brilliant video as always Danny, really been struggling with my woods off the ground 👏👏
Hope it helps you Connor 👍
Thank you Danny!
This is brilliant!!
My pleasure! Really happy to help
Thank you for your videos, so worth it!
Happy to help
Great video again Danny as well explained and something I can think about with striking the ball on course. Also maybe this is for another video but how important is rib cage rotation in the golf swing, especially for driver?
Another Maude master class simple message perfectly produced
Appreciate all the support Dave
Danny, thank you for this tip. I totally buy in to what you are saying and understand the principles.
My question is this. Deploying your recommendations I am prone to a couple of the ‘unmentionables’ sneaking in and afflicting my game.
Can you further advise please.
Many thanks.
This is brilliant as some have said. Keep the arch (geometry as you said) thought in the mind throughout the setup. This is going to help greatly in setting up for fades and draws as well as straight shots. I have been noticing lately that I have had to open my clubface more at setup to get the shot straighter. Obviously after this video I had the ball too far forward in the stance with a closed clubface. Thanks Danny. Definitely my favorite Coach...
Thank you so much 😁
Boy Danny, you are a very impressive guy. For many years I have trained a lot of people in a very technical physical trade that requires a lot of advanced technical knowledge. That is why I know you truly care about training, helping and mentoring people to your very best ability. Your enthusiasm tells the true story about your work.
Thank you Carl appreciate the support
The best around, thanks Danny 🤙🤙
super kind Ben, all the best
Exactly what I needed, thanks!
What is a drill like this off the t?
Danny, thanks again for this much valuable content! Now that I have put up my own golfsim in my garage, I will be able to work on those things. I usually hit very well my irons, but my woods are trivial.
One suggestion for a next video; Can you elaborate on some of the metrics an entry level (Garmin R10 or MEVO+) golf simulator can provide? I'm still trying to understand all the different metrics and being a Lefty is a struggle when the vast majority of golfers are Righthanded :) Thanks!
Your videos are amazing. Thank you Danny.
My pleasure! Really happy to help
Great video Danny, well explained as usual. Thanks as always and have a great weekend
Thanks Julian 👍
Danny, I tried this yesterday. What a sensation. Crisp strikes. It is a great tip. Easy to replicate and practice. I'm a natural fader. This tip has really changed my flight path!
Amazing to hear Bernard
Thanks Danny, this can only help me!
Thank you George 😁
Danny thanks again for this-- your videos are the best out there - I find myself running out to the yard to practice/try all your ideas and tips after my morning coffee spent watching your latest video -lol anytime your in Canada beers and golf are on me! lol
Thank you Disco!
Excellent video! Love the cause and effect approach.
Glad you liked it!
THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER VERY CLEAR & HELPFUL VIDEO.
YOUR EXPLANATION & VIDEO OF YOU STRIKING THE BALL & BAG ARE VALUABLE.
YOU MAKE GOLF A LOT EASIER TO UNDERSTAND.
THE UNDERSTANDING HELPS GOLFERS TO PLAY BETTER.
IF YOU KNOW WHY YOU ARE TOLD TO DO SOMETHING , YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO DO IT.
Thank you Alan 😁
Thanks Danny, great video and explanation on the geometry of the golf swing 👍
Happy to help
Brilliant Danny, thanks again for such a great instructional video…
Thank you Marnew 👍

Really happy to help Robert
O…M…G!
This makes perfect sense, and explains my troubles
Thank you 🙏🏻
Really happy to help Dave
Top Notch Explanation by a skilled communicator!! Ta, matey..
Great video, thanks for your instructions.
Thank you Phil!
Aaahhh! That's why I hit left...and I hit with a closed face...so it's a straight far left! Thank you DM!
Might start to get the love back for the game knowing that. Think I'm definitely gonna get lessons over the Winter
Great lesson I’ve got to try it
Have fun Nick
Thank You Danny much appreciated 🙏
Thanks Chris!
I watch a fair bit of golf on TV. I've wondered why the ball always looks like it's going way right when the camera is behind the players. I assumed it' was an optical illusion resulting from 2D view of a 3D event!! Thanks to you, I now know they ARE hitting it to the right. This will definitely help my own game. Thanks Danny from Vancouver Island in Canada
Thank you Mark, happy to help 😁
The best explanation ever encountered!
Very kind thank you Anis!
Barb Trueluck here! Anxious to make clean contact with hybrid. OK so far...amazing. oops! All of a sudden topping ball. I moved ball back in stance a little and not ? With slight forward lean) I'm doing it! The good are really amazing ( with proper set up). Now I must improve my swing speed! So mych to know. So great when my brain understands and I finally get that to my body (execution). Danny only you don't over-teach. I understand you. I only take lessons from you! Set-up, commit to shot and tempo! Now I must speed up and finish...love you! Thx. B
Fantastic drills Danny thanks again great explanations 😊
Pleasure Keith, all the best
