I didn't know this was a golf tutorial till the third time watching this
🤣🤣
You old smoothie.
Thumbnail sucked me in.
Where was this 35 years ago...before I became disabled I, too, never learned the draw. Great vid.
Wow, he’s standing right in the shank/toe zone. Brave man.
A toe shank wudda been perfect lol 😊
I followed your set up tip and had a successful draw the first time i tried it. That was the very first intentional drawI have ever hit. Thanks.
Jack Nicklaus said this years ago, Keep it Simple.
Draw: Same grip, close the clubface, aim right and take your normal swing.
Fade: Same grip, open the clubface, aim left and take your normal swing.
You need to get the feel of how much you open or close the clubface and how much you should aim Left or Right to find the consistency of your ball flight.
Exactly how I was taught and exactly how I do it.
Nuggets!
...and you'll pull it
@@sausagembape677 some just don't get it
@@jerseyrattler before technology caught up this is what they thought was happening, it's wrong, he actually proves he's wrong in the video, it's face to path, simple, but not to this guy
Blair is the only reason everyone’s here !!! 😀
Correct!

@6:54 perfect end pose to the golf swing! I know club head speed is key in getting distance, but ending in this position is also very important!
Martin smashing it on & off the course
She is so patient with this guy rambling on with his stories...Blair is such a babe!
She’s stunning.
@@vladimirlopez7840 stop simping
He lost me at 10 seconds. Not a good teacher but a nice student.
It baffles me how many people don't understand that the ball will generally start where the club face aims at impact. The club face has to be OPEN TO TARGET but CLOSED TO PATH for a draw to start right of target and draw back to it. Read it 3 times, let it sink in, that includes you Martin. He had Blaire's club face closed to target and to path causing a low hook at first. This will happen every time until your body starts making compensations.
yeah you're right. It's just what he is doing is teaching people how to hit a "fake" draw basically. Aiming right of the target and having the ball end up at the target is a hook. He is basically teaching people how to cheat a draw. Aim right and hit a little hook. Not a draw...
@@MsMatth33 Yeah you're right. This video is garbage. You know it was wrong when he said he closed the club face at address. This video is the best example of a bad teacher. What people dont get is this will get you to draw the ball but you will never be able to figure out how much of the draw will happen. The dispersion will be all over the place. What talentless Golfer says above is 100% right.
@YikesBikes every single time some one tries it this way including Greg norman, nick faldo and Phil Mickelson, they will adjust slightly either before they hit it or compensate during the swing. The club face will be closed to your set up, this feels closed but it will be open to target.
@YikesBikes yes that's great. But if the club face aimed at the tree you would have hit the tree. You said your self you aimed right of it closing some. Closed to path but still right of the tree. Otherwise YOU HIT THE TREE
@YikesBikes I guarantee you the face was right of the tree at IMPACT no matter how you set up. Club face angle affects the start line by 85%
She did a nice cameo for my Wednesday Night Golf TH-cam channel. She's awesome.
Thanks Martin. You've made drawing and fading so much easier to do. I'll give it a try at my next golf practice session.
If you haven't tried it, than how do you know?
Thank you for this! It WORKS!
Thanks for sharing. Basic lesson but hard to do.
I love me some Blair O'neal.
Predator Alert!
This is chest what I was looking for to straighten me out!
Thanks
You have tried to make life easy for high handicaper .
Would like to try the next time I happen to be at driving range 👍
Well Martin, you read Homer and even got your GSEM. He clearly and properly explains the draw in chapter ten. I know you need to dissemble for tv purposes but honestly it’s all in the book.
Cheers F
Pink and yellow are now my two favorite colors.
Have a great holiday!! Nice lesson!!
Would love a lesson with Martin 😀Great lesson thanks 👍
Who the hell cant draw a ball??? Its just a circle
I keep getting a square
Ufv7v to be
Badoom tsh!
Who the hell can draw a circle? I’ve never even heard of someone doing it?
😂😂
She is just GORGEOUS ❤❤❤
I’d like to properly hit something...
Thanks for sharing I will give it a go.
Thank you. Very helpful. Going to try that one today.
Blair O’Neal for the win
Love seeing Blair, great golfer and very pretty lady with nice attitude
Always enjoy Mr Halls commentary and clarity, but you didn't address ball position at set up? Is it the same?
I have no problems drawing a ball if my target is left of my setup. When the target is on the right side of me at address I can’t depend on executing the draw. If am on a tee box, when I attempt a draw, I am mostly aiming down the right side of the fairway….which obviously causes lots of problems for me. I can try putting the club more in my fingers, I understand the concept. But I really think it is an alignment issue or a commitment to the shot.
Does she give lessons?? Wow !!
En golf Channel en español, las clases de golf de shool of golf viene las instrucciones con subtítulos en español, porqué aquí no?
I am now a fan of neon green and pink!
Blair = beauty and skills ♥
I would let her put a golf club in me
Golf...yes,golf👍👍
I'm a very inexperienced self taught golfer and intuitively found a similar trick for draw and fade shots.... if I set up with ball further toward front foot than I normally would so I contact ball later in swing it draws (hooks). If I move it back so I strike it a tad earlier that I usually would it fades (slices). Essentially intentionally hooking or slicing the shot - but if you set up to do it intentionally you can compensate by setting up aiming the opposite direction you intend to move the ball. I think this is essentially the same principle - but moving the ball forward / back in conjunction with aiming away from the direction you want to move ball is what works for me
I can also set up with ball back / forward to hit up or down on a shot without slicing or hooking it if I want to. Its just easier and more natural to me to dynamically open or close face during contact if you set up with ball forward or back intending to hit a slicing or hooking shot and you ca just feel it better than trying to do same from a neutral setup
Damn, she is on fire!!!!!
No matter how many times I watch this I can't tell where the ball went.
Line up right, club face pointed at the target, and just swing.
Line up left, club face pointed at the target, and just swing.
It is really that easy! Draw and fade as much as you want using your normal swing.
And keep your right arm loose
Except, as I've come to find out after 50+ years playing, that this is wrong. It will produce a draw but the ball will start at the target (where the club face is pointing) and then turn and will miss the target left. This was happening to Blair on the screen. If you want the ball to start right of target and come back to it, the club face needs to be aiming right but inside the club path.
@@rm00k strictly speaking it isn't wrong. He never mentioned where to aim the face, all he said was to close it. For a draw to start right & end up on target, the method is exactly the same, with the exception of making sure when you close the face, it's still right of intended target.
@@kboy19831983 Right. But I was responding more to Charlie's comment than to the video. I've seen many instructions over the years on how to work the ball and they usually say aim the club face at the target and then line up either right or left.
Exactly
What happened to feet aiming to where the ball should start and club facing to where you want it to go ?
whoa!!!!
My problem with the technique shown here is if I regrip with the closed face at address, I can feel the club face is still closed at the top of the backswing. It really throws off my release, and I usually snap hook into the trees. I find if I focus on an inside to out swing, and fully release the club, I get a draw most of the time. 12 handicap so take it for what it's worth :)
It really feels like something is completely off when ever I swing back after re gripping with the closed club face. Solid advice.
I think this drill works best for those who don't properly release the clubhead
that boils down to simply turning the club in your hands slightly to close the face and aiming right - I can do that and will try it
Not a good idea to decrease the amount of club face by doing this. People will end up shanking and hooking
When you make a proper shoulder turn , draws tend to happen as a result of club dropping in the slot on the inside on down swing. Focus on shoulder turn to play good golf.
Sounds right
I find hitting a draw is pretty much the same as a straight shot as far as my setup goes. The difference occurs in the finish. The hands high in the finish for straight and the hands lower and more around the body for a draw. A neutral left hand is key in both and the club face square to the backswing path for both. It seems easier to hit the draw than the straight shot. For the fade I just open the club face slightly and hold on tighter with the left hand not letting it release.
If you actually read The Golfing Machine you would have understood ALL of this method you discuss in this video. Homer explains this very clearly in chapter ten. Cheers. F
The first and second shots show the face: where the ball started: to the left and pulled because path was to to the right of the left face..she actually demonstrated why he was wrong!!!
I don't fiddle with the grip just aim right of target and lead the toe of the club in on impact this promotes "feel" for the shot shape, the more feel you have the more control you have of the club head, fade is left of target toe lagging creating the shape you require.
Wow, at least you told us how to hit it. Every other video just talks ribberish about it, but they don't tell you how to setup to hit it.
If I close the club face to where I want it to end up.. it starts where I want it to end up and goes left.. left going left . I finally found a swing for a push draw that works for me. Aim "slightly" right of Target and closed stance. Club face slightly open with a lag shaft lean at address. Inside out swing and it's a perfect mid launch flight that starts right with low draw spin. Max distance with control. I only close the club face at address if I wanna hit a low stinger fade or butter cut.
Exactly mate. This is why people struggle to hit draws and fades. Even nick faldo and Phil Mickelson explain it wrong but can play the shots besides this due to immense skill. This coach has the basic laws of ball flight confused which probably caused his struggles as a player
Exactly what I do too. Line up aimed slightly to the right of target, close the stance by dropping my back foot about 2-4" and swing away. Draw every time.
Damn this bird is georgous no wonder we all like golf would love her teaching me especially in the bunkers ⛳🏌️♂️🏌️♀️
I recall that Lee Trevino once said " You can talk to a fade but a draw won't listen."
Still think you are better off sacrificing a bit of distance with a fade, if it means playing the next shot from the fairway.I also think you should try and use a shape for your shots, rather than trying to hit it straight down the middle,as it increases the target.
" A hook wont listen "......
The golf channel has never been the same since Michael Breed left. BRING MICHAEL BACK!!!!
Already know how to hit a draw. I'm a simple man, I'm here to watch Blair O'Neal...
DarthCC CC she’s got some clobberknockers
Probably works but very complicated. Just set up your feet aligned with your target line, place ball a fraction back of the the centre point of your stance, align your knees, hips and shoulders to the just right of your target line (so you are facing the ball in effect) and just swing naturally. A fade you just placed the ball just ahead of the centre point.
I think most golfers underestimate the power of aiming the club face. The ball will generally end up where it is pointed if you swing the same way every time.
I aim right and swing right and it goes right.
Club face has to be closed.
That still seems difficult. Not saying I can do it better by any means, but I always aim everything at the target. It's just the swing path that puts the different spin on it. They're not HUGE draws or fades, but it works for wind and pin placement. Always love watching!!!
Hopefully you have learned this by now but, just in case, the goal in changing your alignment is to maintain the same swing path, since changing the swing path is far more difficult for the average golfer. Hell, even pros like Tiger adjust their setup for shapes instead of their swing path. Nicklaus keeps it simple as well by telling you to always aim your club face at the target but open your stance for a fade and close it for a draw. Once you get it down, the setup adjustment makes them quite easy to not just hit, but to go from one shape to the other. When trying to change just your swing path, you run into consistency issues and can do considerable damage to your swing, mentally and from a muscle memory perspective, than it is worth.
I too have more success hitting a draw by changing swing path. It’s a simple swing thought for me…once I turn, keep the left shoulder back and swing under. The result is a beautiful high draw.
The funny thing is though, I absolutely setup up for a cut shot. I have always been a natural fader of the ball. Feels right at home to setup a little open and cut it. Draws were a in impossibility for me until I started keeping that shoulder back which totally redirects the club out to in.
Exit right of target - Ermm yeah every great player and golf coach such as Pete Cowen says you must exit low and left - exit right means resisting shoulder is up meaning a block, shank or snap hook 😂
Pace of Play Alert!
Please play ready golf, keep up with the golfers in front of you, and if you can’t keep up let golfers waiting behind you play through. Thank you!
My natural shot is draw. Key for me is hip turn on take away to give arms freedom of movement to swing inside the ball.
show off!
that is a great tip right there thanks!
Blair is the total package. WOW !!
Too much of a package here, because was pregnant.
Clicked because the thumbnail. 😂
I was drooling, never mind drawing!
I don't know why I keep watching these videos.... I'm still struggling to get the ball in the air, and not hard right.
Been two years, are you still struggling? Sounds like you are likely swinging inside out (or aimed right) and making contact with an open face. If the ball never tries to go left, then everything you are doing is pointing to your right.
Show how to hit different types of fades.
I draw and fade just by moving my ball position back a few inches or forward a few inches. My swing stays the same every time. No grip or swing adjustment. Just ball position
Yes I see, it must be the sticks on the ground. Not that I’m only 15 feet away so the viewer gets a full view of what?. I’ve used the simpler one, the grass was growing in the wrong direction 🤔
Blair would get it
This is basically how I developed my draw... just putting a little english on the ball.
It’s funny because my natural swing is a draw so I have to do almost the exact opposite cuz I have trouble hitting a cut
99% Of people clicking on this thumbnail already knew how to draw the ball
Shhhh... I need to learn how to hit a fade next!
Yeah but you can’t do it on the course
Lucky guess.
hardly anyone knows how to draw the ball and still can't after watching this
Every good plus handicap player knows that the real secret of hitting a draw (as opposed to an outright hook) is to be sure to keep your head behind/back (away from the target) the ball. This is the only way to keep the swing going inside to out and not across the ball left. Anything less will result in a duck hook. On tee shots to "ride" a right to left wind with a high draw, teeing the ball very high also helps but it is critical that the head stays back behind the ball. Remember, the ball ALWAYS starts out on a path as to where the club tracks through the ball (assuming a square face). Staying back with your head is how you get that inside-to-out swing which is required for a draw alone (not a hook).
She’s knocked up
I would definitely take her to St Andrew’s
Aim right the ball goes further right.
That woman is fire
Nobody should try to imitate Seve. He was a one-of-kind artist.
I can't find her on the LPGA list.
That’s one lucky golf club
If Blair was my instructor, I would have difficulty concentrating on golf....
I’d like to draw Blair😀
Tiger woods hits a draw and always starts with a slightly open face because he wants the ball to start to the right 👍👍👍 the opposite to what Martin says , but there isn’t one way to do it ⛳️⛳️👍👍
Shouldn't the face be facing the direction you want it started? YOu had it pointing left of center. Seems the clubface should be aligned on the line you want the ball to start, and the body (path) aligned right of that.
I would listen to her about anything
Just close the club face slightly and play around the ball. Simples
I personally hit a draw by trying to hit a fade.
I just hit my wife. Kidding. I'm not married.
If you get your hips out of the way early it feel like a fade , but creates a space for the arms to come from the inside , it works for me too
@@fradaja what do you mean by "getting the hips out of the way"? Does this mean in the Downswing you are first turning both your hips so they are facing the target before your chest & shoulders (ie. do the shoulders remain pretty square to target line at impact whilst hips are turning through to the target). Or does this phrase mean moving your hips laterally first to get them "out of the way"??.
@@mplunky1 I mean the hips create room by always being in front of the arms , it’s pretty difficult create an inside to out with the hips and arms synced , tiger talks about keeping the arms in front I believe that’s how he hits a fade .
Mark crossfield recently did a video showing why this does not make a draw, now I'm confused. (tried it at the range today no draws happened)
Go back to the mark crossfield video as this one is complete nonsense
That's because hes actually teaching how to hit a hook aimed right of the target, and calling it a "draw."
Holy shit
the old Jack Grout/Jack Nicklaus method.
I wonder how she got this gig.
KC 71 shes in the LPGA
No shit.
Martin , I went down that Rabbit hole for years trying to get that ball to draw 🤬
You can just turn the clubface in your hands then grip it closed. Then you can just turn your body to aim the face.
I open the face and close the stance , and concentrate on the hips going very early
nice bit of mutton there, puttin mutton waka waka
Blair is a way better "student" than Holly was. She actually does what Martin is teaching. Holly never looked like she understood what he was saying.
I want to play a round with Blair
Is that Blair from big break?
yes
THE COMMERCIAL CHANNEL
Interrupted by moments of golf.
Just like I've found, a famous golf instructor who gives 1000's of hours of lessons and countless drills to students still can't consistently draw the ball after 40+ years. Here's a tip: Many golf instructors are not that good themselves, but a few are. Don't believe me? Pay for a lesson auditioning THEM to demonstrate their skills on a set of shots, if they are even willing to (most won't), and you may be shocked at how poorly they perform. I've watched really terrible "instructors" rake in $80-100/hr not helping their students at all after literally months of lessons. Buyer beware!
they're teachers not players - has Leadbetter won a major? Butch Harmon had one year on tour. Hank Haney?
I've now got firm feeling balls and a stiff shaft.
