    It's not clickbait,it's a description for a golf problem. It shows everyone who has that problem a video to fix it. There are A LOT amateur golfers who need this kind of help

    You’re instructional videos are the best. They’re not so basic, we’ve heard it all before. They’re detailed and practical and address all aspects of the game. Keep it up!

    I got a tip that completely transformed my golf game. I was told to "swing like Lee Trevino". I open my stance slightly, never let the clubhead get inside of my hands, and biproduct of opening my stance is that it shortens my swing (closed stance allows for a longer swing). This video of yours is relatable because I was told to set up much more forward with lower loft at address.

    love this drill set. can't wait for texas to thaw out to try these!
    absolutely appreciate the technical explanations as well

    This is great information. I'm a former college football athlete and new to golf . I'm BIG on "feel". The drills explained in this video really satisfied the feel of my swing. It reduced the uncomfortable tension of my swing from years of barbarian workouts.

      Same problem for me. Former college football guy and a bigger dude so I feel like i am always trying to swing too hard and have a lot of tension. Great video.

    That step back drill is amazing for reinforcing rotation in the swing and it only takes a few reps of doing it if you lose it in the middle of a round.

    @motokawidude6491 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you ... Watched this about a month ago and practiced as much as I could and now my swing in no longer over the top; fat; or pull hooks. I am going to keep working on these drills, my suggestion is to start slow with each drill until you can do it on auto pilot then practice with one club to get your tempo and work out the kinks and you should see some positive results

  • @richardpeyser8552
    @richardpeyser8552 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Best video yet was the wedge video from 100 yards in where you rock the baby or football and extend with the arms and then push off with the right leg. I never hit the ground any more before the ball and get amazing height.
    on the ball!

  • @buddhatbay9041
    @buddhatbay9041 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't know that I agree that by pressing the hands forward, that it will open the club face. When starting the backswing, the club should actually look like it is closed when the hands get waist high, unless you are consciously rolling your hands backwards (death move). Yet, at impact it is actually square to target line. There has to be some leaning of the club at impact in order to compress the ball before hitting turf. Having said that, you provide some good points and I like this video and the drills that you have provided. Thank you.

    Awesome tips. I used to come in way too steep with my irons. Once I started shallowing out, my consistency went way up.

  • @peterbutler39
    @peterbutler39 ปีที่แล้ว

    These are cool... i think i you cant do the step back drill... can you just put your left foot back to begin with and then hit trying to get your hands over to your left pocket from there?

  • @nycabilifeisgreat9768
    @nycabilifeisgreat9768 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is kinda interesting…. GREAT VIDEO and instruction. The second tip about ending up open with your hips…. Well that was the best explanation of that part of the Golf swing, I think I’d ever heard or seen ! Thanks so much man… If it ever stops raining here N the San Francisco Bay Area…. I’ll TAKE this out 2 our range! LOL! Thanks again!

    Hi, I'm pretty new to the channel and so far the loving your drills. I've been playing golf for 30 years now but always feel my impact with my irons is always hit or miss. and most of my bad shots I tend to pull left or they just don't feel pure. with that I was wondering if you analyze swings if I sent you some videos of my swing?

    Practice hitting older Top Flites they tell on you if you aren't making a perfect compression with your irons. Newer Top Flites are some of my favorites, not as rocky sounding..

    @jcx5663 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That's funny, I work on the opposite with my coach and it works out so much better for me. A more steep club path and coming down onto the ball, granted the down and left club/hand path is a part of the trick to making it work. Interesting how many different swings there are, wish I knew that earlier on lol.

  • @ErndogGolf

  • @Ri_Guy
    @Ri_Guy 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well I disagree with the hands forward thing. It’s important to have your hands ahead of the club head at impact, but not to the extreme you had it. Also, if it opens the club face too much, take a stronger grip.

    • @Bystronicman08
      @Bystronicman08 2 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      @@robsmith6093 The entire title. Saying a percentage of golfers do some vauge thing wrong. First, where did the 95% number come from? Also, he doesn't mention what they're doing wrong in the title because he wants you to wtach the video to find out what he says it is. I thought it was pretty obvious and didn't need any explanation but the tile is blatant clickbait. Unfortunately, it's everywhere now. He does it, Rick Shiels does it. Tons of people do it now. It's deceptive.

    • @robsmith6093
      @robsmith6093 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      He doesn't need to mention it in the title if he shows a picture of what the title is actually about, then in the video he goes on and talks more about what you see in the photo. Seems like a reach to call this clickbait though. I don't like deceptive titles either I just didn't think this was one of them

  • @danielx40
    @danielx40 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I fell like that you should ALWAYS HIT DOWN instead. The thing is that your arms are not going to stretch, when you hit down, it has to come up. For many beginners, they hit too thick and the club head bounce up and then top their ball. When you hit down right at the ball, your club head is going to slightly reach further than you intended, due to speed. And then you would hit the ball in the back perfectly, if you always try to hit down at the ball.

      Man these 3 drills have been a heaven sent for me. I spent the time to do these drills and the results were amazing. Today I felt like I was swinging easier but the ball was flying better and further. 4i thru wedges. Well worth spending the time because the result is centered shots
