- Understand where speed comes from. It’s not fast wrists, we want fast hands.
Let me help you get a effortless golfswing with speed and accuracy. A good release will help you to a better impact and longer drives and irons without slice and hook.
Long and straight is every ones goal but it takes time. Try to focus on one thing not everything when you practise. Impact, face control and swingpath will always be the most important part to drill.
If you use callaway, ping, titleist or taylor made clubs doesn’t matter you can learn to hit good golf shots. Your loft or your shaft on the club will not change but you can get better.
Find what inspires you. The pga tour, longdrivers or other good golfers can all help you find better golf shots. Watch what they do instead of listed to what they say. Listen mostly to your body and figure out what you need to do to produce the same results as the pros on TV.
Mike Malaska, Mike Austin, Mike Dunaway and Steve Pratt are some of my favorite golf instructors online. Find the tips that make your golf better. Decide what you want to hit. I teach a draw but many like a fade and nobody likes a hook or slice.
Your hips or your lag is not the key to golf. Your hands will decide the shot and you can do like Tiger Woods and trust your hands. Teach your hands to hit different shots. Hit big hooks and slices to understand what happens. Only straight is not gonna teach you anything.
Bryson Dechambeu and Kyle Birkshire can inspire you to hit it longer. Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson can give you inspiration and motivation to test new things and new golf shots.
The Masters, Players Championship, The Players, The Open and US Open can make you love golf even more. See the best in the world solve all the problems we all need to master any golf course. Golf is a craft and you need fantasy, feel and skills to master it.
This settles it, you’ve become my go to guy on golf. For years I’ve watched instructors who promote body turn, the hips, the slide, ect ect….but you make it very clear what drives the club, thank you much!
Thanks David. I'm glad you find my instructions valuable. 👍
Thank you Marcus for sharing your skills in videos. I started golf at 60,struggled with all these hips,straight arms and so on and couldnt progress. These days I hit my first 200 m drives, babies for your but pure joy for me. And straight without the less slice.💚
Your instructions are outstanding, golf is fun!
I love it! Best teacher on youtube right here!!
Thank you! 😃
The body core / weight shift SUPPORTS the "arm speed" path, (the arms "win the race"), to and through the ball (Down the target line). That makes better sense of the sequence (to me). I hope that makes sense and helps to others. It has been very difficult learning the sequence of the swing (and "Speed Stacking") from right-hand instructors while being a left-hand golfer. Thank you Mr. Edblad you express it as clear as I have heard it. Your instruction has helped free up my swing. And freeing up the swing mechanics my body is trying to do naturally.
I know it works but all changes are tough to implement. Give it some patience and work and you will get what you want. 👍
"Speed Lives In Your Arms" .. great quote ;)
Thanks. 👍
Another great video, I was taught to use my hips, shoulders and rotation. At 62 that has given me lots of pain over the years, swinging the way you teach has given me much more speed and no pain! Thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful! 👍
Just reached another speed peak copying/practicing what you coach. Will concentrate more on extending that arm to see if I can jump ahead a bit more. This is getting scary-good. Again, my irons are great, now, so leaves time to concentrate on your driver speed lessons. You were right, it doesn't happen over night! It doesn't take long to see results though. Fewer thoughts buzzing between the ears. Thanks!
Sounds great! Keep going. Progress. 💪😁
Brilliant explanation.
Perfect golf swing statement will hated by the golf manufacturers.
Thanks. 👍
Spot on Marcus, managed to hit my 5 iron 180yds the other day, I’m 73 and can’t believe how much your thinking helps.
It takes heaps of practice but seeing the results motivates me.
I am adopting your thought processes. I’m loving my golf so much more.thank you
It's always hard to change but I'm glad that many are ready to do the work. Keep going my friend. 👍
Hey man , you deserve way more subs , keep up the great content 👍
Thanks, will do!👍
The only other coach that teaches throwing your arm at the ball ive seen is Mike Bender. Throwing a ball at the ball. Really helps with swing power. Just contrary to sweeping the irons. Love that your idea of developing your own swing with thought.
The mind always needs to understand before the body can do. The clearer the thought the better the motion gets.
Brillant! 😀. You keep on explaining stuff in ways I've never heard before.
Thanks. I'm glad you say that. 👍
another great one arm arm and more arm elbow release. Pushing the club all the same more or less. I really appreciate you talking about the wrist movement that is not really creating the speed. Thanks again.
I'm glad you like it. I will keep going. 👍
God bless you Marcus! Thanks!
Thank you. 🙏
Simply the best!!
Thanks Joe. 🙏
I’d love to hear your comment on adding downward body motion to the fast arms/hands. Like splitting logs, that seems to be where the incredible speed “assist” comes from. It’s hard in your swing to understand how much downward body you put into your fast hands.
I know that many try to do that but I don't. I want my arms to move fast in relationship to your body. The most important muscles I want to use is the muscles in the shoulder who is responsible of moving the arm. The main body will always move up/down when you move your arms but I don't want to much of that because that is power, not speed.
Oh. 💡🎯. Yes. Now I get it. No wonder one day practicing I carried 2 consecutive 8 irons 172 yds. My norm is literally 135 maybe 140 max. So my friend asked what did you do? I said I swung the club faster back and down because the club I used was much heavier feeling so I knew where it was in space. Moral of the story? Swing your arms faster which creates more hand speed. And get heavy enough clubs so you feel the weight at the end of the stick.
Love to hear it. 👍
Let me try that. I was concentrating on shoulder rotation.
Then this could also be helpful:

The kinetic chain is real and fast arms and hands are at the end of the kenetic chain. If we were lowered into a barrel of concrete up to our chest how much distance would be lost ? It starts with the recentering of the lowerbody then lower body rotation, upper torso rotation then arms and hands. This sequential order multiplies clubhead speed. We see it in every sport from baseball pitchers , tennis players and pro golfers.
Thanks Marcus
There are many things that tribute but my firm belief is that arms are the biggest speed generators we have. I don't know how much I would loose chest high in concrete but sitting on a stol I loose about 10%.
I have two YT-Instructor, You and Mike Malaska 😂
Good choice. 😁
Hello Marcus your teaching is unbelievable because you just think swing in to out with yours arms and the body follows, but the most impressive is that you know what you did wrong when you see the ball flight. Amazing. Thank you. Would love to take lessons from you. Do you make clinics ?
I absolutely do clinics to have a chance to show what is possible. Reading the ball flight is something all golfers should learn to do.👍
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad Hello Marcus do you have a schedule or dates and where do you do your clinics. thank you
@@GianlucaCracco I don't have a schedule for that. That is something that companies book with me during season.
When are you coming to Reno, NV???? I want a lesson!!!!
Hopefully one day I can travel again. 😊
Marcus great advice. Can we have some slow motion shots showing the arm motion please?
I need to package slow motion so it's not misleading but some slow motion will come in the future.
Marcus, been following you for a while now. In this video you explain how HANDS get FAST; you demonstrate Malaska's example, which demonstrates something Manuel de la Torre spoke about as well: Swinging the ARMS (anatomical arm, meaning from shoulder to elbow). His father was his mentor, and his fathers mentor was Earnest Jones. Jones believed in the hands, but Manuel de la Torre "discovered" that if you stop the arms, well the hands are not going anywhere. So if I may Summarize your analysis: Hand speed is created by the arms.
You are spot on. Sadly not many listen to me or any of the other you mention but I will still keep reminding golfers all over the world as much as I can. 👍
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad Marcus, I picked up the game in 2018 and been going mad trying to figure SOMETHING out about this game. Thank you for your feedback and all your videos.
Good explanation 👏
Glad you liked it
Hi Marcus are you a Viking. Because you hit the driver like Thor.. Lol
Absolutely. 💪
My swing thought for speed is to get the club head away from me as my arms come down. Creates lots of speed. Can you do a what’s in the bag. Curious to see your equipment set up. Thanks.
I can do club video. 👍
Hey Marcus! Been really enjoying your awesome content. Have you ever done a full simulator round on the channel? Would love to see you play 9/18 holes while talking through your club selections and thought process for each shot.
I am sure Marcus will eventually take this to the course weather permitting, I am very interested in seeing how he copes with uneven lies and fairway woods which I find difficult using my version of the ME technique.
I'm going to do a few outdoor playing videos when the spring is here. I promise. 👍
Hi Marcus, I am implementing your push and swing out technique with great success, but sometimes when I swing out with the irons I hit the heel or hoasel, what could be causing that? And What at you see when you hit the ball, the ball or the ground? I would really appreciate your response.
Hi Aldo. Hitting from the ground/grass I look at a point just past the ball to focus more on landing correctly. If you hit the hosel too often we need to get your impact to move more out towards the toe. Your "mental" impact should be on the toe.
I will do a video about the shank next week.
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad Thanks Marcus !!! I will focus to adress the club head with the ball in the toe next time. Love your content!! I smoke the Driver yesterday 305 yards.
@@aldohernandezcocina Don't adress the ball on the toe, you need to try to HIT it on the toe. 😊
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad Ohhhh sorry jajja spanish Guy here, sometimes didicult to understand things jajaj, thanks Marcus I already understood!!
@@aldohernandezcocina Nice. 👍
Marcus, is focusing on trail forearm rotation a good power source? If so, that might be a good topic for a video. I'm in the early stages of awaking my trail side which has been asleep in my golf swing. Thank you for your videos.
It's not a forearm rotation that gives you power/speed. It's the extension of the trail arm the gives you speed, just like a throw. Rotation will give you problems with face control. Watch my series of how to use your hands and you will understand. Start here:th-cam.com/video/JYJrkN991ac/w-d-xo.htmlsi=AvXPAGrTR45PBY0l
I’m 74 I have trouble getting to a complete finish. End up with chicken wing by not completing follow through. Any ideas on how to get over this.
I'll do a video about it this week. 👍
It's true that fast arms make fast hands. But what makes the arms fast? My understanding from your video is that I should pull down with my entire left arm as fast as I can. Is that correct? The reason I ask is that from many other videos I've been taught that you can't make your arms go fast enough that way. The only way to get maximum arm speed is to let your arms do nothing (except hold on to the club) and use your body to generate the arm speed that results in fast hand speed. You and Mike Malaska have me totally confused.
No pulling with the lead side, please. The muscles in your shoulder moves the arm. Watch this for more info:

Marcus, 😅 is your takeaway with your shoulders turning, rocking the baby, pulling with left arm or elbow? How much inside do you think? I can not find it. 🙏🏻
I start by pulling my trail elbow back. Try it but nothing you have to do. Better to find your own feeling.
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad thanks buddy, till now i hurt my shoulder a bit with trying. That’s why i asked. Thanks for reply and i go at it tomorrow again 🤟
@@ChiTherapie Nice. 👍
I want to get it but I don't get it yet. I'll keep trying 🇨🇦🇪🇪
What is the hardest part?
Comparing Your position at the top with for example Rory, should make me guess that he is at least 50 yards longer from the tee. That athletic shoulder turn and posture. For me (a non gym person) it's a lot more to take from You. I have always tried to minimize arms and maximize shoulders, and hips, almost like my arms were ropes. Thanks.
Rory's ball speed is about 183, but you think he hits it 50 yards longer? Please explain how. 😁
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad from what I can tell Rory is really fast and twists a lot so it looks fast and thus long but you are what we call sneaky long. More like Ernie Els. . I like what you are teaching. Most people will gain distance and control doing what you are teaching.
Whatever you may think of the Marcus Edblad method it is undeniable that he competed in long drive competitions for many years. Rory, great golfers that he is I believe would struggle to qualify in a long distance drive event.
Lol. Marcus hits it further than Rory. He's competed in long drive in the past. Ball speeds are comparable now but I think Marcus used to be up in the high 190s for speed. That's what his recent series has been about, regaining some of that speed. Marcus's way of generating speed is much easier than Rory's who is an elite athlete.
@@jimwocha4949 Rory is a brilliant world class golfer and hits it far but I'm pretty sure he doesn't hit it 400 yards that often.
We use totally different "engines" to generate club speed. At 51 it's just fun to be compered with him. 😁
When I do the circle of speed, I feel like I am using the JuJu method.
I don't know anything about that but if it works, keep the feeling.
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad
Thank you for replying, and for your great videos. I will be using the circle of speed for the rest of my golf life.. God Bless you
I am naturally left handed but I’ve golfed right handed my whole life and I feel like a lot of my problems come from this. I use a lot of my lead arm and slice like crazy….I’m not sure what I can do to get the trail side more involved and still get power out of it.
I am the same, a right-handed lefty. Tiger, Hogan and many of the legends are like you, left-handed playing right. I think it's a positive thing to have the "smart" hand leading the swing and having the "stupid" hand just pushing the way the the lead hand wants to go. Watch this and teach the lead hand to move correctly:

Thank u

Your insruction is more than common sense. I believe it originates from "swedish timing talent". Timing sports enormous legacy. Waldner, Borg, hockey guys etc. You have it. Vikings would not survive the hunting out if they thought "arms or lower body being the engine of javeline throw"
That was a new angle. Maybe I have some Viking in me. 😁
I use my arms as fast as I can.... but I end up with golfers elbow...any idea what would cause that? righthanded golfer ...left arm golfers elbow
Sad to hear about your elbow. Every time I feel any pain in my elbows I start doing hard weight training for my forearms. Normally the pain disappears within a week. I believe in strengthening the small muscles in the forearm so it can take the pounding that it gets from every hit we do. I tried to do basic wrist and forearm strength exercises every week to prevent any pain in my arms or elbows. Try to find someone close to you that can help you with rehab, because if the muscle becomes stronger, I think the pain will disappear. Only rest is almost never a good recipe for success. Keep fighting.
@@GolfwithMarcusEdblad thank you...will do. I practice 4-5 x's a wk.
UPDATE : since doing this and straightening my elbow as fast as I can in the forward swing, my elbow doesn't hurt.
Golfers elbow comes from pinching or lifting using the thumbs and Index fingers too much independent . stop using them so muchg
P wedge 160 carry wow
It will carry longer. 💪
Why do 99% of all instrutors tell us to not use arms in the swing?
Hi John. I don't know. Maybe tradition. ☹️
Just wait until you get to seventy, young un.
Looking forward to it 👍
