All other golf channels (apart from Robin's of course) might as well just shut down. This is gold , and the thing I love is you dont withhold information so people need to pay for website subscription etc to get additional information.
Posting from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Thanks to you and the vids posted of you by Robin my swing has improved immensely. Built my own foot board and I'm on it every day. I also swing a broom stick to add the auditory feedback of a swoosh. It's engrained in my brain. Bang-Bang-Swoosh! Bang-Bang-Swoosh! Bang-Bang-Swoosh! Thank you so much.
I know I’m late to this video, but it’s pure genius. Marcus has a way of explaining and showing you what needs to be done that really helps your game. Never had someone explain so clearly to me the correct way to aim and hit various draws and fades. This is gold.
Your videos are awesome thank you I’ve learned more about my golf swing in the last week watching your channel so thankful you take the time to make theses videos I’m still a work in progress but anything that comes up I can find the answers on your channel I can see the shot and tell what I’m doing wrong I thought I was shanking everything but turned out to be I wasn’t getting lag and was hitting with my club upright which gave me an open club face more tilt straighter shots just found these two part 1 and part 2 and my 4 5 and. 6 fades makes more sense and I can see what I need to change Again thank you and you definitely make a personal golf swing easier
I agree with everyone here. This is a very important video. On so many levels!! The variation on the swing path with the direction stick at the bottom of the hula hoop is genius!
Never heard this until today. .and I LOVE IT...Marcus calls the swing/shot a Journey...just so good...as soon as I am able to travel...this will be my first lesson in nearly 15 years...out with the technical golf swings in with focusing on the journey...cheers again Marcus great material per usual
I never take the time to comment, but I've been watching your videos for quite some times now (I appreciate the recent effort with the sound, much better :-) ). I'm not a good golfer but in one of your previous videos you mentioned how in football you never try and hit a ball straight and that made perfect sense for me ! I'm actually pretty good at curving the ball at football so why am I trying to hit straight golf shot ???? I's been 2 weeks now that I only hit curved balls at practice, and I don't try to aim at a point but a zone.... what a difference ! When practicing, my only goal is to make sure I curve the ball the way I want, so if I'm trying for a draw, I must hit a draw... doesn't matter how bug the curve, I'm thinking it's way less dangerous to hook it than to hit a fade there. I tried to take the practice to the course and to be honest, even if my score wasn't that great, I've never felt that much in control. Now I'm visualizing the danger, aim towards it (close to it but not at it) and curve it away from it.... I'm basically doubling the size of the farway compared to before (before I aimed in the middle and was expecting a little miss to the right or to the left). Thank you so much for your tips, I'm now having fun ALL the time on the golf course, even when I play bad, because when I aim I look up and imagine the path and the target.... I stopped focusing on the ball trying to think of how to start the swing, how to not reach to far, how to not start to early with my arms, etc... etc... the focus now is the beautiful course in front of me, not the little white ball on the ground beneath me ! Living in Alsace (France), but promised myself to book a lesson to your place on day and come and visit ! Also, and I'm serious, I have a bed and breakfast, so if you want to spend some vacation in our beautiful region with Robin, you'll stay for free in exchange for one lesson and an 18 hole, we have some amazing places here for Golf ! Thanks again for your insight and for "simplifying" golf for us addicts.... Nicolas
Stumbled onto your channel a week or two ago. Went to the range this morning and added 15-20m to my irons. Ridiculous. Fade and draw. That drill of feeling the swing plane and how the weight transfers (minus the board), has completely opened up my golf swing. Great videos, easy to understand, and are actually useful!! Thank you for posting these.
Another crucial lesson that somehow I had overlooked/not paid attention to/understood after all the other videos. The fact that I somehow hit a slice when trying to hit draws I knew was something simple I had overlooked but hadn't quite figured it out. OF COURSE, it's the concept of the wheel around the ball. Looking forward to employing this adjustment and having more control of the intended shots.
Marcus is amazing. i was trying this technique this afternoon before the video was released and was doing it alllllll wrong just as he was saying. dear god. makes perfect sense.
I keep coming back to this it has really helped me to shape shots with my 4 and 5 irons. No more thin slices or over the top duck hooks. A gentle draw and more to my surprise a baby fade, a shot I've never been able to control, are becoming part of my game. It's still a work in progress with my mid to lower irons though.
After my lesson and watching this video it really makes sense to me now. Been able to curve the ball like this is so beneficial in a game of golf. Superb.
Lol! I am the poster child for this robotic like search for the perfect swing of zero degrees of tilt. Tried every swing system imaginable. The closest I came to just hitting it straight all the time was a long time ago using a very weak grip combined with a vertical swing and a lot of physical strength and athleticism. Anyway could write a book on all the changes and swings I have copied. Even P1,P2,P3. Moe Norman.Mike Austin. David Lee. Rotary swing. Sergio lag swing. Manuel del Torre. Ignition golf. Etc... Totally uncreative! Reset and declutter. Have fun and explore. Use both sides of the brain. Thanks again Marcus! Great video!
.....semi resumed!! Brilliant video gents. This channel should be in the hundreds of thousands of subs. Robin/Marcus, I can still hit the ball better when I dont look at it - why? Its doing my nut in! I need to get myself up north for a lesson (will check my passport). If I could translate my no look results to my normal swing, I'd be in business. Keep pumping out the message fellas, this stuff is golden.
Driving range just now results after watching this last night, i cut a hoola hoop in half ( got some funny looks carrying it into the range 😂 ) took 5 and 7 irons and driver, got two bucket's, total of 120 ball's, used this video as a recap, took my time before each swing to get the feel, started standing open with clubface aimed at target, bingo, fades on command, with decent distance with both irons and driver which really surprised me with the distance i achieved. I then switched to closed set up for draw, not quite as easy or consistent as fade, did shank a couple of 5 irons, driver a bit erratic, some beautiful draws, a few blocks and a couple of snap hooks, however the one's i flushed went way further than anything I've hit before, definitely need more practice with draw swing, but absolutely no doubt about it, either setup is much easier to hit than trying to hit the ball straight.
Wow... I have to unlearn what I think I have learn't! I will be trying this today on the range because I would love to consistently be able to shape the ball flight to make the hole easier to play. The face and angles I knew but I would have been moving my feet, open / close to shape the ball. Know wonder I have been failing and beleiving that this is a PRO skill. Thanks.
This is differential practice rather than grooving one swing and the best way to learn in my opinion. I came back to this after listening to Adam Young and Jon Sherman’s The Sweet Spot podcast.
Fantastic...it feels like an episode of Magic Tricks Exposed. The context your provide along with your focus on expanding tolerances is absolute gold. Thanks!
Went to driving range today and practiced this lesson, amazing results, actually hit draws and fades with long irons and driver. Maybe a coincidence but my swing speed increased also. Loved it.
this explains why i could not hit a deliberate fade - I worked for so long to get rid of the slice - I mastered a draw shape - with the only fade a push slice and when I attempted a fade I get a pull hook. This is so useful - thanks. Wish I could get an individual lesson but NZ is too far and trips to uk of the menu atm.
This is so insightful I’ve been trying to develop a draw but not moved in relation to the ball and being hitting a fade / slice. You’re comment about rerouting is spot on as well. Lots of good stuff to work on at the range.
Really enjoy all of your content and follow each of your videos very closely. I'm a big fan of the way you approach the golf swing. Having said that, is there a ordered progression you would suggest for developing the ability to CONTROL shot shape for beginner/intermediate golfers? Many of your most helpful insights have to do with developing a feeling for controlling ball flight, but some beginners might be overwhelmed by trying to control draws and cuts and high and low flights. The ones that aren't overwhelmed might attempt to do too many different shots prior to developing a real comfort and ability to swing their swing and consistently hit a nice draw. Do you have a suggestion for taking a beginner and progressing them through the development of the ability to control their trajectory? I don't mean to muck up the whole feel-development aspect of what you are saying, but I also think that very few beginner/intermediate golfers start hitting a nice baby draw into a tucked because they actually decided to. So what would you say? First, teach them to accept that there is no such thing as a straight shot and that Unicorns don't exist? Second, get them comfortable hitting draws of consistently at targets of specific distances? Third, have them do they same thing with fades? Fourth, unleash them to start trying to curve the ball in every manner possible as long as they are meaning to do it? Thanks as always. You have some of them best golf content on the internet.
Thanks for your comment and appreciate your support. I always relate it to ball flight so there's always a shot shape in mind but we also focus on developing that kinaesthetic awareness for recognising your movement patterns 👍
I dig this. Started making notable improvements when I thought more about "intentions" [of the swing]. Not trusting it yet but now that I've found your videos it might help in this regard.
I have been doing the same thing before your video without realising my actions. I had better scores. . Thanks for confirming that i am doing the right thing.
Have only recently discovered your videos and I’m loving the content. I was getting bogged down in too many technical thoughts and forgot my natural swing. Getting me excited about golf again! 👍🏻
I hit my first functional draw yesterday. Took 3 tries, but wrapped it around some trees onto the green from around 140 yards out. These videos definitely helped get me there.
Loving these videos, you explain it in such an easy way. Been practicing weight shift in the garden just swinging a club without hitting any balls and surprise surprise I got back out on the course today and balls straighter, playing a few draws and not a single slice today!!!! Keep the videos coming guys, helping loads and a massive thanks!!
Tried this tonight, and I hit 3 draws on command and a big draw from wrong side of fairway around tree line to middle of fairway 210 yds with my hybrid , hit fades on to par 3, then got cocky and it all fell to bits and I started to focus on hitting the ball instead of intent. Cheers for this zen master p.s I've never been able to hit draws or hooks ever.
Great great explanation of it all. Like many others here, I've never heard it described that way. Can't wait to get to the range and work on drawing and fading the ball!
Wow, this is what the caveman must have felt when he discovered how to make fire!! Outstanding lesson. An understanding I’ve never been given in 45 years of golf 👌
Excellent insight Marcus thanks so much can’t wait to try this out ! I’m in Kent but hope to be able to get a lesson in person one day. Keep up the good work.
Love the spoke picture. I am going to take this imagery to the range with me. Could you please talk about the grip in a future video. The actual grip and how tight we need to hold the club. I have been working on gripping the club really lightly and it seems to work with all the clubs in the bag. I am getting a snap at the ball because I am barely holding on the club and my wrists are also loose. Thoughts?
I was just moving my foot to try and get draw or fade and was wondering why I was slicing of hooking the ball I’ll start moving my body around next time to keep that ball central nice one
My biggest problem is my relationship to the ball i get all twitch trying to setup. Thought about moving around in circle, its nice to have you second that. I shoot between 3 and 9 over and its a struggle just setting up to every ball.
I do try walking round the circle to play draws and fades (cant remember where i got it from) but doesnt allways work.Maybe now youve shown why it should work I will believe in it more! cant wait for next game on tues.
Any guidance/tips on distance from the ball? Would love to see your thoughts on setting up. I really struggle with it. Love your videos! Thanks so much for for all you do
I love the intent of this video, but I always lose it when I try this because of ball position. Trying to hit draw with driver and I end up with push cuts every time. Can't manage to close club enough. Scared of smother hooks. Any suggestions?
As a science teacher, I love that this develops greater depth knowledge for students rather than just pussy footing around. Top lad Marcus...might be coming to see you new year...
The Outward look for the swing is Spot On, and it works, but I find myself after looking at the big pitcher, the ball position does match my draw view. The setup getting ready to hit the ball is disoriented where the ball is in perspective to the Draw View or path...
I have been struggling getting decent connection for my draw shots and leaving them miles right, didn't even take into consideration ball position in relation to my body position, always looked at is as staying central 🤦♂️ great information again mate will take this into account for the range later
Marcus, this was similar to what I mean to what I meant on the comment I posted today on students of zen. I feel like when I move round / walk up the ball at times it's too close and the ball isn't aligned to where the club is travelling along, hence the shanks.
Unless I missed something, isn't this lesson a reiteration of how all of the fine shotmakers throughout the ages have played their shots - meaning that they setup to "WORK" the ball to the target, as opposed to we rank amateurs that point and shoot, i.e., setup parallel to the target line and swing, hoping on hope that we catch the golf ball in that 1 degree (out of the 360 degree circle) that will produce a dead straight shot at the target ? Did I get that right ?
All other golf channels (apart from Robin's of course) might as well just shut down. This is gold , and the thing I love is you dont withhold information so people need to pay for website subscription etc to get additional information.
Yes! Marcus mike drop!
The most valuable swing information on TH-cam by a country mile
You can learn more in a fourteen minute video with Marcus than you can in a year of lessons elsewhere. Top man Marcus, many thanks👌

Wow. This was eye opening. I’m going to keep this in mind when I play tomorrow. Focus more on the intention and not the details of the swing
Phenomenal camera work I must say
Outstanding.... Marcus always works with the best... 😜
Yes Robin it was. Who did it?
Haha indeed, phenomenal camera work!

Excellent insight Marcus thanks so much can’t wait to try this out ! I’m in Kent but hope to be able to get a lesson in person one day. Keep up the good work.
Marcus giving all the secrets away again. Terrific
Show me a better golf video on you-tube..I'll wait!
Thank you Marcus/Robin for providing this incredible free content 👌🏌️💥
what a brilliant vlog. really enjoyed this video and so easy to understand
I'm amazed at golf and golfers in general. There's so much to this game, and I can't even hit a 7 iron correctly!
Love the spoke picture. I am going to take this imagery to the range with me. Could you please talk about the grip in a future video. The actual grip and how tight we need to hold the club. I have been working on gripping the club really lightly and it seems to work with all the clubs in the bag.

First rate lesson on a topic I've not seen anyone else discuss.
Also late to this video. But it´s really great, I simply couldn´t understand why my swing with the long irons didn´t work. Thnx.
What a great explanation ⛳👍
Pure gold for golfers!
I really love your concept, and i've tried a lot. But i think this is the one for me, thank you so much for sharing
As you go around the wheel do you always have the clubface aimed at your intended target ??
Thank you for this insightful lesson. I am enjoying your channel very much.
I was just moving my foot to try and get draw or fade and was wondering why I was slicing of hooking the ball I’ll start moving my body around next time to keep that ball central nice one
Love all videos, this video talked about how to sense awareness of swing path, stance etc. Not hit long irons as good as short irons?
Marcus dropping wisdom here once again.
Thanks for posting, stay safe and well.
My biggest problem is my relationship to the ball i get all twitch trying to setup. Thought about moving around in circle, its nice to have you second that. I shoot between 3 and 9 over and its a struggle just setting up to every ball.

Brilliant video. 👍🏻
I guess im going to the range today now. 😅
Where can find the alignment prop he is using?
It's just a lie tool. You can get them on ebay 👍
:)
They have a remote camera that does the same, that's Phenomenal too!!!
I understand the feet and club path but at the start of the swing is the club face still square to path or to the target?
Whatever you want tbh
fantastic thank you
💪 Solid vid!!
Great info. Will try it out on range
Very interesting! Like the excercise!
Great video Marcus
I have been struggling getting decent connection for my draw shots and leaving them miles right, didn't even take into consideration ball position in relation to my body position, always looked at is as staying central 🤦♂️ great information again mate will take this into account for the range later
When hitting a fade shot, do you keep the club face open after the strike of the ball or do you roll it over as in the draw shot?
It should release freely but there's different ways of playing it
Marcus, this was similar to what I mean to what I meant on the comment I posted today on students of zen.
I feel like when I move round / walk up the ball at times it's too close and the ball isn't aligned to where the club is travelling along, hence the shanks.
Im looking forward to trying this out i would love to hit a draw or a fade when i want.
Great perspective👍🏼
2:35 look how he changes from in to out then out to in
Unless I missed something, isn't this lesson a reiteration of how all of the fine shotmakers throughout the ages have played their shots - meaning that they setup to "WORK" the ball to the target, as opposed to we rank amateurs that point and shoot, i.e., setup parallel to the target line and swing, hoping on hope that we catch the golf ball in that 1 degree (out of the 360 degree circle) that will produce a dead straight shot at the target ? Did I get that right ?
Finally drawing the longer irons as well as I do the shorter one. Really having problems with hybrids and fairways woods. Any suggestions
Try the footboard with right handed swings (if right handed) and notice the difference in timing between a wood and an iron.
Marcus, you do an amazing job!! What is the circular disc called that you use? if you dont mind sharing. Thanks
Balance rotating discs from Amazon or 8 board
Top work as always
Like when you make videos solo with your thought process.
Excellent. Thank you.
