Danny is an S tier golf instructor on TH-cam! I was away from golf for 15 years, so I essentially started as if I never played before. Just watching his videos I’ve already gotten to a point I was never close to when I was playing over a ten year period.
Played 9 holes with someone yesterday for the first time. I've been playing only for 4 weeks. He couldn't believe after 4 weeks, the way I was hitting my Irons and Driver. Thank you
When you learn from Danny, you learn the right way. I didn’t play golf for 10 years, restarted last year when I found Danny on TH-cam. It’s amazing how much he helps your game.
Another gem Danny - your “feels” and the polite manner with which you teach never gets old! Keep up the great support for all of us grinding it out despite age, infirmities or bad habits! Would love to meet up, am in Richmond, able to travel!
Thanks! Thought that was McIlroy there for a second. Your swing is so easy to watch. This one was especially helpful. goat-turquoise-white-horns You are the goat of youtube.
man i wish i could get my golf buddies to pay attention to videos like this one. i found this out accidently myself messing with my swing but this articulates how to feel it perfectly. game changer for real, probably went from hitting 3-5 GIR to more like 10 or 11 in a round. score def lowered. appreciate your content sir. ty im a bogey golfer, 85-91s
Been looking for the reason why. I thank you for answering my email in this lesson. Danny 42 years of fighting the golf club and now Eureka instant change. Be blessed JC
In a class of your own Danny. You have such a great way of explaining, with demonstration, how to improve ones ability to play this wonderful game. Thank you.
This absolutely works! I have been watching Danny's videos and am now hitting my irons 20-30 yards longer (and straighter) and I just recently hit my driver 50 yards longer than I have been. I'm almost 65 years old and I have 2 fused discs with rods and screws in my lower back. I never thought I would get my golf swing back, but after watching Danny's videos, I can hit the ball longer with less effort. Thank you Danny Maude!
Can really tell the passion you have for teaching this game. You’ve completely found a way to simplify teaching the golf swing more than any video or lesson I’ve ever had. Absolutely brilliant mate, well done and thank you!👏🏽🙌🏽
Thank you for another excellent ,very helpful & easy to follow video. Your practice plan ensured that I fully grasped the main points. I am now 80 years old & only wished I could have benefitted from Danny's advice when I started playing golf. I really appreciate his advice & his enthusiastic, friendly approach which helps golfers of different abilities.
I went to the range after watching this video and I tried it and was amazed at how natural everything thing came together, I still have lots of work to do I see light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Danny your explanations are the best. Cheers
Excellent job Danny in explaining the "magic move" for a effortless golf swing! After viewing this video, I went back to my golf library and I found a book and a video written and produced many years ago by "the Little Pro" Eddie Merrins, which also describes a "swinging the handle" theory! Thank you Danny for reintroducing this to me! Well Done Danny! Always look forward to learning or validating from you!
We all know how elusive this game is. One day you got it and another day … 🤷🏽♂️. And many times we don’t understand why. I love your teaching style Danny because you highlight and expand upon things we kinda know but you put them into words and EXPLAIN things in a way that can easily be understood. I mean, it’s so easy to take something like “momentum” for granted, right? But it’s so important and you have such a gift (identifying and) reminding us. We under appreciate so many things about golf and you bring us back into more focus … if that makes any sense. You are sooo valued and appreciated. Thank you.
I learn something from each of your videos. This particular video made me feel as though you saw my swing and fixed it! Went to the range today and was hitting solid iron strikes 7/8 out of 10 times. (I am a 28 handicap so that’s pretty awesome). I noticed the moves placed my butt and hips in the positions I’ve struggled with automatically. As you might say, I got those for free simply by loading correctly. Keep the content coming. Thanks for sharing your amazing teaching techniques every week!
Danny this is incredible, I’ve been working on my swing path a lot recently and my body has stopped moving and I’ve been trying to guide it with my hands. After trying this I’ve never hit it so good! Everything is long and straight and my strikes are so pure, thank you so much ❤
This is the 3rd of three of Danny's videos that have been transformational to my swing. I've been playing for some time. I have a 17 handicap - sometimes playing like a +13 but more often playing like a +30. The radius and trail arm feel videos along with this one have done the trick. And this may be the most fundamental: you get to feel the clubhead. The mysterious "ball on a string" feel that has been often discussed but never felt by me is present. I finally have something to sync my swing to - rhythym! Thanks, Danny,.
I really liked the initial thought in the start of the video with focus on moving the handle 👍 - that 'clicks' with me. I've heard and seen most of the elements of the tips in this video before, but as is often the case, you seem to put it into a language, context and build-up that just makes sense in my head. 😃 Now off to get som training reps in 😅
Another masterpiece in instruction. If I was able to take it all in, I'd be a professional (albeit on the senior tour). Thanks Danny. I'm working on it.
Not to beat a dead horse but this lesson was an absolute epiphany to my swing. The speeds are slow but the ball continues to ROCKET of the club face and my divots are beyond the ball… every time. Cannot thank Danny enough for his excellent transfer of information. Almost instantly I’m more consistent than I was 20 years ago. I’m thinking about writing you into my will😂
Wonderful job teaching from an "out of the box" perspective! Much different approach to getting the body leading the swing than I've ever seen. Every athletic movement, when done correctly, starts from the ground up for power and your coaching here has greatly added to my understanding of this key concept. Thank you
Thank you for this - watched it, tried to feel the swing at home, went out and shot 41 points, won the day. Cant believe the difference - more work to be done but a great start Sue
Tried this out today and all I can say is Wow! You can feel the whipping action of the club and the strike is pure..hope to take this to the course tomorrow and repeat the feeling. Thanks Danny..this is the type of swing I really want…nothing technical but effective. Cheers from a subscriber in Nova Scotia..MikeR.
Every beginner golfer I meet, I tell them there is only one place to start! and that place is here! Thanks Danny as always and this isn't only for beginners it's nice to be reminded rhythm works for us salty dogs too.
Hi Danny, I''ve been following your teaching for a while now and have gone from hitting fat to now hitting 4 inches after the ball (on trackman). Ive gone to far can you post a video of how to get back on track? Many thanks, I always follow with interest.
Nailed it again Danny. This truly is a new (outside of the box) help with understanding the club head versus the shaft/grip. Momentum being the key word! Cheers. Marc
Ive been using your drills and i can say confidently, its been doing me good, hitting my drivers now is more consistent, and my irons are effortless, could use some consistency but ill get there one day
Your ‘waggle the hands not club head’ is one I haven’t seen before in my 50 years of reading instruction books and for the last 25 or so watching videos but it addresses something I came to realize about using mass and momentum in a golf swing. The critical path determining success or failure in a golf swing is the path of the hands relative to the body. If the club / arm unit isn’t hanging in balance at the start of the swing, which tends to pull the hands in closer to the body than they hang naturally without the club, the momentum of the swing club will pull the hands off the ideal ‘balanced’ path. I struggled with this for many years because I’d try to copy the set up posture of the various pros whose books I worked through until I realized that because I have an extremely long torso and arms I need to tilt forward much more and someone with average leg/torso proportions or long legs / short torso to get the club to hang in balance at address and not feel the force acting on the club head trying to pull my hands out further from the body. Once I started with the club hanging in balance it seemed to steer itself and I felt that previously elusive “swinging in a groove” feeling with every swing and when I didn’t knew the cause was not starting with the club hanging in balance do to incorrect posture / spine angle FOR MY BODY PROPORTIONS. This relates to your drill @ 3:20 because both illustrate that it is actually the moving mass on the end of the stick that should be steering the hands not the hands trying to- usually in vain-to steer the club head mass back down to the ball on a well balanced path. It harkens back to something Arnold Palmer wrote in one of the first golf books I read about knowing the swing was going to work or not in the first 18” of the takeaway, and another quote from Jimmy Demaret who said the golf swing wasn’t difficult to master once the golfer learned to keep the club head outside the hands and stay in balance. The riddle in the last quote is that keeping the club head outside the hands starts it and keeps it on a well balance path.😊
Another banger from Danny. Golf is a real 'less is more ' game - so counter-intuitive. More like swinging a weight on a string than bashing a woodblock with an axe. Thanks for all the help in taking that destructive tension out of the swing ( And the video getting Adam to 'hammer the tee peg after the ball' has been part of my pre shot routine, so thanks for that too )
😮 Danny, yesterday my inconsistency of striking was frustrating. After watching this video this morning, I went back to the golf course and put this to the test. I only played 9 holes and my first few holes on approaching the green I was hitting 20 metres past the flag cause I was flushing the each shot. Therefore for the last 5 holes I adjusted the selection of iron and just wow. I hit every drive on fairway and my approach shots were close to the green. I certainly will be watching the video every day this week and can’t wait for next Saturday’s comp! Love your video’s.
Love the passion you put in to your videos after watching your towel drill a while ago I thought of using a rope and this exercise with the rope does exactly what you showed today making it very easy to swing as you shown today( apart from the fact you can hit yourself with the rope ) You might like to consider a follow up to this video using the rope thanks again Danny😀👍
From one Danny to another I am grateful. I think when I finally relax I get this ease of swing. When I’m tense and just getting started at range I am way too tight and cramped up. It’s after half a bucket that my body loosens up that I think this type of motion begins to happen. I’m going to have to do this next time. Love it.
Good one Danny. I played today before watching the your coaching and something I can add is that I find many golfers including myself are too static before setting up to hit the ball. All Pro golfers always have a couple practice swings to get the “ feel”
Another great lesson Danny, I have been told I'm too static over the ball but this might just unlock a bit of potential to hitting longer better shots.
I have been golfing for like 4-5 years and this video made me hit better and gave me more progress than anything that i learned in that time. Excellent work man
This was/is a fantastic lesson. I’ve always fought the take away by fighting tension build up. I really didn’t understand how to stay in motion hence using my body to initiate the downswing. This changes everything. Thank you Danny.
Hey Danny! I have been following you for a while now and this video has really helped me loosen up and keep me from being too mechanical. It has done wonders for my irons. I can't say it has had the same effect on my driver however. Now I am just effortlessly slicing the ball off the tee Hopefully the feet together drill next time I'm on the range will help!
Danny, I love this lesson! I haven’t seen it anywhere else on YT by any other coaches. I’m going to try this because I am one who does swing the club head. Thank you!
I am a middle school golf coach who sarts with players new to golf. This is the best video I have seen for teaching kids the key moves required to strike the ball consistantly with power.
Hi Danny, at the five minute point in this video I stood up with my remote and cup of coffee in hand to practice the body movement. Excellent idea because it took the arms completely out of the swing and made me feel how my body was moving particularly legs and shoulders, thanks for another great video!
Reason why i just follow you Danny for the last 2 yrs. Simply the best. The only short game issue i have that started in the last few months is, my bunker play. Distance control and I hit fat. Spent an hour in the bunker practicing and im lost lol😢😅
Thank you alooot!! FINALLY my swing feels effortless! i always wanted it to be like throwing an object, but as soon i had 2 hands on the club and all these ideas, (lean on the frontfoot, battlemode stance, drag the club straight back in a line, lift the club over your shoulder, start the downswing before weightshift, hit 12 a clock blablabla etc etc😂😅)i never felt it naturally and it was inconsistent and straight A** ....i was a super slicer, than suddenly after some changes i was hooking my irons and wood/driver went snaphook and i was about 2 quit. NOW however, i found out i had the wrong grip, i fixed it and made it feel natural over a few days. And this video made all my clubs feel the same, and the swing feels so effortless..i just do flow tempo and it works fine, but imagin all the speed u can build up over time to! Also that bit about swinging the grip and not the clubhead...Man give this man an award😁🙌
@Floki6753 thank you so much for your lovely comments. They really mean a lot 🙏🏻 That’s amazing. Keep it up and keep me updated on how you are getting on 🤣
Thanks Danny, seeing your video my arms and body want to move at the time :) . This clip would help to unlock my body follow rotation, because I am now too static at backswing.
So much appreciate your how you make the swing biomechanics simple and apparent. Your descriptions and demonstrations help me understand why my occasional "tour shot" often feels natural and effortless, while too many of my shots feel artificial and contorted. If I could just leave most of my brain at home when I went to the course. :) In appreciation.
Fantastic lesson Dany, I understood rhytm, timing, release. , control and distance , thanks to you. I appreciate your pedagogu and your enthusiasm. All thé séquence of the swing appears logic and naturel.
This looks good, I'll give it a go. I had 2 years of struggle, so worried about my backswing and mainly trying a 3/4 swing at most (thinking this would stop errors). Hard as I tried I couldn't get a crisp contact and was mainly stuck with no real follow thru. Then recently I thought hey why not try a bigger backswing, and wow I realised immediately that it helped slow down everything from the top. It seemed to automatically get my downswing much smoother and easier to get some lag. I think I sort of do what you're alluding to her so will keep going with it. Massive difference. Main struggle now is getting more weight forward for the actual ball strike... As it feels I'm just missing a final part of the swing to get ball then divot... Cheers
awesome danny, it ties in with the `transition` i`ve been working into the swing over winter ,so looking forward to incorporating your pearls of wisdom this season, when the flippin course dries out enough ...😂😁😇👍👍
I watch your tips all of the time. Today, first day we got to play our usual matches in MN. I used this and I could not believe how much better I struck the ball, however, you do need to make sure you get your turn down properly or you will spray it right, in my instance. With my 5 wood, I usually hit that around 210, today I let rip 260. 7 wood, usually around 190ish, flew it 200 plus. So simple, turn the arms off. I did this drill prior to every shot, was I perfect, no, but this is the first time. Cannot wait until tomorrow. Thank you Danny.
I never knew my backside could be so significant for my swing. Using my greatest asset, this video shows me what I do for those rare good shots. Now you've shown me this I'll try to apply it. Of course then comes the other problem. Once I'm "trying to apply" this I'll over think it and get all wooden again. Excellent common sense and insightful video once again. Glad I'm a subscriber.
@@DanielMaude Danny, where do you give your lessons? Are you in the UK or Scotland…… I realy think about coming for a few days and combine it with a nice trip…..ö hetti
Watched this video a couple of times and a pitching one. Practiced the movements in the living room for a couple of days. First time I actually hit a ball trying it was warming up this morning. Went out and shot a 2 over 73. Better watch a putting one now if there’s one available. Thanks for the advice 👍
I don’t think TH-cam golf coaching could ever get better than this. It’s peaked.
Super kind thank you

man i wish i could get my golf buddies to pay attention to videos like this one. i found this out accidently myself messing with my swing but this articulates how to feel it perfectly. game changer for real, probably went from hitting 3-5 GIR to more like 10 or 11 in a round. score def lowered. appreciate your content sir. ty

@caleblynch8078 I’m really pleased my video has helped you. Thank you so much for your feedback. I really Appreciate it 🙏🏻
One of your best lessons ever Danny!
Really kind thank you
I am a Certified Golf Instructor and this video is so good I show it too my students.
Thanks David! Appreciate the support 😁
This was/is a fantastic lesson. I’ve always fought the take away by fighting tension build up. I really didn’t understand how to stay in motion hence using my body to initiate the downswing. This changes everything. Thank you Danny.
@davidrust7003 really glad my video has helped you. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hey Danny! I have been following you for a while now and this video has really helped me loosen up and keep me from being too mechanical. It has done wonders for my irons. I can't say it has had the same effect on my driver however. Now I am just effortlessly slicing the ball off the tee Hopefully the feet together drill next time I'm on the range will help!
Danny, I love this lesson! I haven’t seen it anywhere else on YT by any other coaches. I’m going to try this because I am one who does swing the club head. Thank you!
Thanks Sean!
Brilliant lesson Danny, thank you 👍
@alanvessy3205 My pleasure. Really glad you enjoyed it 🙏🏻
Another fantastic well explained drill and method
Glad you enjoyed it Colin
I am a middle school golf coach who sarts with players new to golf. This is the best video I have seen for teaching kids the key moves required to strike the ball consistantly with power.
Happy to help John 😁 appreciate the support 👍
Hi Danny, at the five minute point in this video I stood up with my remote and cup of coffee in hand to practice the body movement. Excellent idea because it took the arms completely out of the swing and made me feel how my body was moving particularly legs and shoulders, thanks for another great video!
Happy to help John!
Thanks, Danny. Momentum is the key. Nice video.
Always! 😁
The move the grip move works----added distance and accurracy and Your tips are easy to understand and they work----keep sending them THanks
@davemarks9051 thank you. I really appreciate your comment’s 🙏🏻
Thanks Danny. I can really feel this "Magic Move" with this lesson. Great teacher!
@ChuckS7546 you are very welcome. Thank you 🙏🏻
Can you do this same movement with the driver? If so please do a video showing it. Thank you
I will do
Reason why i just follow you Danny for the last 2 yrs. Simply the best. The only short game issue i have that started in the last few months is, my bunker play. Distance control and I hit fat. Spent an hour in the bunker practicing and im lost lol😢😅
No problem, will film a bunker video for you
Oh wow! I’m not worthy, but that’ll be great! I find myself hitting way behind the ball at times. Anyway, Thank you for all that you do for us!
Excellent video Danny. I find my mechanics are off due to pain, but when it comes together I crush it. Thx for the video 🎉🎉
Thank you Rob!
More ASMR from Danny. Thank you sir, will be taking this routine down the driving range.
Have fun
Thank you alooot!! FINALLY my swing feels effortless! i always wanted it to be like throwing an object, but as soon i had 2 hands on the club and all these ideas, (lean on the frontfoot, battlemode stance, drag the club straight back in a line, lift the club over your shoulder, start the downswing before weightshift, hit 12 a clock blablabla etc etc😂😅)i never felt it naturally and it was inconsistent and straight A** ....i was a super slicer, than suddenly after some changes i was hooking my irons and wood/driver went snaphook and i was about 2 quit. NOW however, i found out i had the wrong grip, i fixed it and made it feel natural over a few days. And this video made all my clubs feel the same, and the swing feels so effortless..i just do flow tempo and it works fine, but imagin all the speed u can build up over time to! Also that bit about swinging the grip and not the clubhead...Man give this man an award😁🙌
@Floki6753 thank you so much for your lovely comments. They really mean a lot 🙏🏻 That’s amazing. Keep it up and keep me updated on how you are getting on 🤣
Thanks Danny, seeing your video my arms and body want to move at the time :) . This clip would help to unlock my body follow rotation, because I am now too static at backswing.
You got this!
Another great drill danny looking forward to trying it on the range
Have fun Jeff
Practical.... Inspirational ...... Thank You.
Thank you 😁
So much appreciate your how you make the swing biomechanics simple and apparent. Your descriptions and demonstrations help me understand why my occasional "tour shot" often feels natural and effortless, while too many of my shots feel artificial and contorted. If I could just leave most of my brain at home when I went to the course. :) In appreciation.
Thank you Todd!
Another quality video Dan, learnt quite a bit off you today. All free too, thanks Dan.
Fantastic lesson Dany, I understood rhytm, timing, release. , control and distance , thanks to you. I appreciate your pedagogu and your enthusiasm. All thé séquence of the swing appears logic and naturel.
@patricedelarochefordiere73 I’m really glad you enjoyed my video. Happy I have helped you with your game. Thank you 🙏🏻
I'm finally curing over the top and power leaks with your help
Thank you. Just what i was looking for. Can't wait to try it out. 🙂
Thank you Andrew 😁
Yep! This is the one… coach’s have told me soft hands, lag wrist, but this wagging tip has finally gotten my brain to click. Thanks!
love to hear how you get on
Te agradezco tu magnífica lección y tu esfuerzo para traducir al español 😮
You are very welcome
Swing gold. Thank you Danny 😊
Happy to help
You keep the things so simple. It helped me lot.
@anmfoyezurraham8662 thank you. Appreciate your comment 🙏🏻
Great tip Danny ! I enjoy using the Lagshot to help create this feeling and control tempo. Will be trying this out after work today.
@BrentBetitMusic that’s great. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Love this drill! Thanks Danny!

This looks good, I'll give it a go. I had 2 years of struggle, so worried about my backswing and mainly trying a 3/4 swing at most (thinking this would stop errors). Hard as I tried I couldn't get a crisp contact and was mainly stuck with no real follow thru.
Then recently I thought hey why not try a bigger backswing, and wow I realised immediately that it helped slow down everything from the top. It seemed to automatically get my downswing much smoother and easier to get some lag. I think I sort of do what you're alluding to her so will keep going with it. Massive difference.
Main struggle now is getting more weight forward for the actual ball strike... As it feels I'm just missing a final part of the swing to get ball then divot... Cheers
Hi Danny, just love it! I suppose that my wrist use it only. Natural momentum!!!! Thanks.🥰
Absolutely!
Danny, really best tips video .. Tanks for share
Very kind thank you Nicolas!
One of thr best golf videos to play with feel 👍🏻👍🏻
Hope it helps Vikram
just gold., thank you.
Thanks for the support
Great lesson. Thanks!
Thank you Mark 😁
awesome danny, it ties in with the `transition` i`ve been
working into the swing over winter ,so looking forward to
incorporating your pearls of wisdom this season, when
the flippin course dries out enough ...😂😁😇👍👍
Thank you!
Brilliant information again Danny
You are very welcome Robert
I watch your tips all of the time. Today, first day we got to play our usual matches in MN. I used this and I could not believe how much better I struck the ball, however, you do need to make sure you get your turn down properly or you will spray it right, in my instance. With my 5 wood, I usually hit that around 210, today I let rip 260. 7 wood, usually around 190ish, flew it 200 plus. So simple, turn the arms off. I did this drill prior to every shot, was I perfect, no, but this is the first time. Cannot wait until tomorrow. Thank you Danny.
Brilliant well done 🙏
Great content as always.
Much appreciated!!
Thanks so much
I never knew my backside could be so significant for my swing. Using my greatest asset, this video shows me what I do for those rare good shots. Now you've shown me this I'll try to apply it. Of course then comes the other problem. Once I'm "trying to apply" this I'll over think it and get all wooden again. Excellent common sense and insightful video once again. Glad I'm a subscriber.
Thank you Ian!
Wonderful explanation
Glad you liked it John, hope it helps
Wohooooooo, looking forward to try this one! Thanks so much for your great work….. your videos realy have brought my game to the next level 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Happy to help!
@@DanielMaude Danny, where do you give your lessons? Are you in the UK or Scotland…… I realy think about coming for a few days and combine it with a nice trip…..ö hetti
Watched this video a couple of times and a pitching one. Practiced the movements in the living room for a couple of days. First time I actually hit a ball trying it was warming up this morning. Went out and shot a 2 over 73. Better watch a putting one now if there’s one available. Thanks for the advice 👍
That’s amazing Gary well done
Thanks again! Nice rythm You have. Copy that I will try. 😅
Have fun
Morning again Danny and the team. Big weekend of golf 🏌️⛳️
It really is
