ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On TH-cam and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

I watch a lot of golf instruction videos and Danny Maude is definitely top of the list for training. What sets him apart is that his explanations are clear and easy to understand. Thanks again Danny, wish you lived in western Canada and I could take in a few lessons.
This is exactly what I needed at this stage in my game. I implemeted your drills and recorded my swing which has never looked and felt stronger and smoother. These drills are allowing me to get the correct lag in my downswing, allowing my hands and upper body to be more relaxed through the swing, and promoting a more consistent tempo. This is a keeper.
Great explanation and drills. This is a way of understanding what Hogan called the "chain action" in the downswing. He said the order of the body parts must be: Hips, shoulders, arms, hands, and then the clubhead. This creates tremendous speed with minimum effort.
I think timing of the start of the downswing is important in getting good "lag" in the swing. Start the legs before the backswing is finished and you won't get full distance in the shot. Start too late and the club has already rebounded off the top and it's hard to get everything going in the proper sequence. There is a short segment of time when the lower body should start moving, for best results. I think that is why you hear a lot of pros say when they practice, they work on timing and tempo.
Danny that is the best discription of lag. You explain it so well.
It all makes since to me . Lower body first , upper second. Wrist snap at impact.
Great drills . Have doing them at home. Idea train the body for the movements.
After doing many repetitions , it will become automatic.
Again you explain things so so well . Golf instruction is lucky to have you.
I love that Danny always focuses on a "natural", "easy" swing. I have been trying to "force" lag with hand position and forward shaft lean. This video will help me get a smoother swing. Great help.
Happy it helps Fred
I have heard a lot of talk about needing lag but have never heard anyone break it down and actually explain how to create it. I have seen players bring the club down just like you demonstrate and think that helps create something good (lag) but you give clear, concise direction for how to make it happen in a real swing....Thank you Danny!
Randy Melendez, thanks Randy, glad it helped
You make things SO easy to understand, Danny! Thank you! I’ve used a number of your videos to break 90 on a consistent basis and even break 80 a couple of times. Now, I want to find more power and am hopeful that these drills will help me get there. Your others have a great track record, so I’m optimistic!
I've struggled with an early release and, despite taking quite a few lessons over the years, I never really understood lag and how to create it before watching this video. The towel drill is brilliant and so easy to create the sensation of unwinding and whipping the club through impact. I tried this today at the range and saw an immediate difference in the quality of my impact and ball strikes. I did the towel drill, then, hit 4 or 5 balls, did the drill again, hit some more balls, and finally began to feel like my hands were releasing through impact instead of on the way down. Thank you Danny for this video (and the others I've watched). You've made a TH-cam fan for life!!
Thats wonderful Robert, I love the way you have implemented the lag drill into your practice
I have watched hundreds of golf videos, but this is one of the most detailed and I am sure it will help me a lot!
Joao Coelho, that’s brilliant, really pleased it could have helped
This was great. I have watched numerous golf videos and have heard the work lag many times but didn't actually know what it meant until you explained it in this video. Thanks
Hi Danny I watched this video 3 times this morning before going to play golf , you made me realise I was not relaxed enough and not using my lower body more arms and gripping the club to tight as well, so I totally relaxed today and ( wow ) what a difference it made effortless power and more accurate shots and the more I relaxed the easier it was to strike the ball and it eliminated my lower back pain.
Many thanks again for all the time and effort you put into your videos it's very much appreciated.
Thats awesome news Johnny, thank you for taking the time to write about your experiences
Whenever I need golf tips for some golf issues I'm working on, I always search first from Danny, who can bring the points home to me.
This lag is so key and has been a problem from me. I'm glad to be able to learn these drills from the best of online coach, in my opinion.
Thank you so much Danny. You have a great year 2021!
Wish you were here in SF Bay Area. Whenever you're here, I'll search out for you!
Thanks for the support An Hong, really happy to help
One of the best videos I've seen explaining how to get lag. You just showed me all of my mistakes. Very clear and easy to follow. Gotta visit your site more often.
Hello Danny, just to let you know how brilliant your videos are, last week I spent about ten hours practicing stance and swings, how to keep my body in the correct position when swinging and how to follow through.
On Sunday with the temperature at 102 deg I had the best game ever, two pars, and five holes with one over par, no swearing and no club throwing. Excellent game and all down to your videos. Thank you for all you do.
Thats amazing John, well done...its great when our games come together. Thanks for sharing
our golf coach in college used the paint brush drill and explaining the brush being full of paint and where u wanted to flick the paint..release too early the paint was way behind the ball release later as you body turns and the paint is at the ball area where it should be..we actually used a real brush but dipped in water and had cardboard on the ground but it helped to understand what your looking to achieve..he also always reminded us the swing starts with the club, hands,arms,shoulders torso,hips and legs and the downswing is a complete opposite where the swing starts from legs,hips,torso,shoulders,arms,hands then the club...alot of collegiate coaches want you to keep that angle and hold it long for basically more power especially wedge play but when our new coach got us into making a big release with the club and letting go we all hit the ball better and noticed much higher..when i practiced hitting around 3000 balls and dialed in my club release our div 1 tournament i shot 66,68 and we went on to win..i hadnt shot in the sixties for about 6 months..even when my putting was bad hitting wedges and short irons stiff makes putting alot easier..
That’s awesome to hear
The best explanation of lag I've ever seen. Thanks, Danny!! All your videos are outstanding.
Robert Trout very kind of you Robert, appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment
Well explained. I watch a lot of golf instruction on TH-cam, and you definitely have a gift in explaining the true power generating sources in the golf swing.
1drummingdriller, I really appreciate the the feedback and it’s great to hear you’ve benefitted from the training
I have always struggled with this "lag" thing - I thought I could never do that since my arms were not strong enough to hold the angle:) Now I finally understood what it's all about! It's created naturally by lower and upper body separation? Wow, I play tennis, so this is similar mechanism as when I swing tennis racket? I can't wait to try it out tomorrow! Thanks, Danny! You're the best!
Hi. Watched video again and heard you say that you start to lag just before the backswing is completed......so every lag motion is different depending on distance.....all I know is that when I lagged correctly my swing felt effortless and my shots were longer.....a great feeling and result....this is everything for me...thanks so much for your clear instruction
peter mies, you can create lag from just 50 yards if you really wanted to
Danny, I can’t tell you how much this video helped my swing. “Feeling” the weight of the club was the key! Thank you!
My pleasure, thanks for taking the time to comment
Thanks so much Danny! I've watched so many videos and now I watch mostly yours. you are such a good communicator. everything is clear and simple and logical. and it's working!
You are so welcome!
Best explanation I have yet to come across to describe what lag is. I am looking forward to trying the drills. Excellent work Danny and thank you!
Chris Davies, my pleasure Chris...if I can help you going forward in any way just let me know
Watching this multiple time , and it makes more and more sense every time . The whipping action is the key!
I know I've said this before, likely on this same video, but I cant say enough how much this video helped clarify lag and help increase my swing speed. People, this is one of only a handful of videos where lag is explained correctly.. watch and learn!
swish1onu I really appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback
Excellent explanation and exercises to create lag. Thank you Danny👏👏👏
This is hands down the best explanation of lag and how these irons work for dummies lol. Cause I can't figure this out, but this is starting to make sense now. Thank you!!!
A great teacher - words & vision building up a step by step process. Many thanks danny.
Thanks for taking the time to feedback Eric. It’s great to hear so many golfers are benefiting from the training
As I start to understand the golf swing more and more your videos make more and more sense to me. I was trying this at the range yesterday with good success with my irons. I tried it with the driver but realized I had to make minor changes in the way my weight transfers cause your driving up on the ball rather than down. Maybe you could do a club head lag video specific for a driver?
Good idea, thanks for the suggestion
Thank You, Thank You! Using your lower body movement towards target first to create lag reinforced my last lesson. Thank You.
Pleasure William
Another great video Danny. I now understand fully what lag in the swing means. Now I need to practice your drills and incorporate this in my swing as I'm one of those golfers who is afraid of losing control and tense up in the down swing.
It happens to us all from time to time Graham
Brilliant as usual ! And it works ! Confidence is coming when in front of the ball. Lower part of the body first to create lag ! I've never been taught golf like this and wow I love it. Thank you so much Danny
Great video, as usual. Simple easy to understand instructions. I find your vids to be the most useful out of a lot of youtube instructors.
crashnbyrne, very kind of you to say, if you need any further help just leave a comment any time
This makes a really good add on to the exercises in the effortless golf swing + power. I’ve been doing these every day, but the weather has been so awful, I haven’t had a chance to hit a ball in the last two weeks. Probably for the best as I have a habit of changing my swing according to my ball flight when I’m trying to make a change to my swing.
Sansfaim, great to hear you’ve been practicing...keep me updated on your progress
Good tips on lag. I tried this for 1 week and learned how to shift my weight. Increased irons 15 to 20 yards.
Brilliant, i bet it feels effortless too!!
All you need to do is look at the ratio of Likes to Dislikes to know that this is a terrific tutorial, taught by a very good instructor. Thank you.
Paul Cascio, that’s really kind Paul, really appreciate your support
I watch a lot of golf tutorials, and yours are exceptional -- you explain Why and How, and you do it in a simple to follow, uncomplicated way.
brilliant vid Danny, these drills give you the immediate feeling of lag, which help you get the sequence right for the swing...also love the stuff you can practice inside as well as out...
Great practical way to learn through the sequence of drills. I’ve already started in the family room. Will take it outside tomorrow. Thanks!
Have fun Bob
Thanks Danny currently working on creating more lag and this video has helped greatly. Nice simple explanations and drills once again.
Thank you Steve 😁
another great instructional video danny. as a total beginner, your videos have been a massive help. my 1st time on the range had me hitting 6 iron shots further than guys using drivers thanks to your videos.
Rich R, that’s great Rich, thanks for sharing
just got back from my 2nd visit to the range. was hitting 8 irons beautifully and further than everyone using woods because i followed your instructions. my use of woods was awful though :-( will concentrate on your driving and wood use videos this week. i can't wait to actually try playing 18 holes rather than the pitch and putt games i started last month. #lovethisgamealready thanks again danny.
Rich R, great to hear Rich, #alwaysworktobedone
Danny, I thoroughly enjoy your videos and they have helped me tremendously. I shot 84 and also 38 on the front 9. I have less tension also, and more confidence. Thank You. Your videos are amazing!!!
kathy slockers, thanks for getting in touch Kathy, so pleased to hear the videos are helping 😁👌
You make it look so simple. But it really is a much more natural movement than trying to force lag. Great video and simple exercises. 👍🇨🇦
Superb explanation again from Danny. This has really helped me loosen up on the backswing and allowed me to move my lower body more. Still a little unsure as to how much you 'pull' the arms down as you rotate, but from my practice on the driving range, the simple motion of rotating the hips and lower body seems to pull the arms down automatically. Will keep working on this. Thanks again!
Richard Walker practice, eat, sleep...repeat
What people need to understand is lag is in the body, not in the club. The wrist lag part is simply a byproduct of your upper body lagging behind your lower body. Yet another great video Danny.
Oliver McKinley really like the way you explain this
Hey Danny, I have watched this video a few times...you have such a great way to describe the correct mechanics! Cheers from New Zealand
Great one Danny-I have been driving the butt of the club towards the ball or pulling down-Got more relaxed and let it drop via the forward move-I have found out that im somewhat of a tense person with a club-A more relaxed movement be it back swing or down swing has made an enormous difference
Great video. A very lose right hand helps. . I love the starting the lower before finishing the backswing. I tend to forget great tips.
Thank you!
great vid! i have way too long of a swing and sometimes at the top of my swing my club almost wobbles out of my hand, but it's always felt good and is usually a solid shot, i never understood why i did it and enjoy the feel of it UNTIL NOW... i just realized i'm lagging at the top of my swing!!!! can't wait to go work on lagging lower and later in my swing! might help me shorten my swing too!! thx so much!
j b, that’s great thanks for sharing
Brilliant! Had to go practice after watching. What an ah-hah moment! Plenty of practice to go yet, but at least now I understand what to do and how it should feel. Thanks so much, the swing even feels better not so mechanical
That’s great Deb, thanks for sharing
Hi Danny! This video along with your other videos have helped me tremendously. You're a really good teacher. Thank you!
Gabriel Garcia, thank you , appreciate you taking the time to let me know
The best Golf lag swing
Instructor>>.thanks so much.
I like Danny Maude's approach to the swing. Thank you, Danny.
Thanks Rick, appreciate all the support
Cool jacket Danny. Great lesson. The transition is such a challenge for me. Going to practice this today. Thanks.
Thanks 😁
the best video to create an easy swing!!!! it helps me a lot thanks JP
Jean-Paul Forthomme great to hear Jean-Paul, appreciate you letting me know
The best explanation ive ever seen. Thanks Danny
My pleasure Steve, thanks for taking the time to comment
Brilliant. Perfect literature on lag. Now it is clearer to me. Tq sir
matkasim, your welcome, if you have any questions going forward don’t hesitate to leave a comment here or over on my other social media channels
I really like ur videos Danny. They have helped me a lot. U are an excellent teacher.
Tokyo Tamura very kind of you, thanks for the comment...any questions just ask
Hi Danny - THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS and for posting so many drills and tutorials!!!. This in conjunction with "Best ROTATION DRILL for your Backswing and Downswing - It's super SIMPLE!" have been the secret to improve my golf swing. Top tip is to video your swing at a high frame rate (60 frames per second is OK, but the higher the better) facing to the side and from the back of your stance... review... SEE where your problem is and do drills to resolve it!
I Subscribed (& notifications enabled) to your channel, THANK YOU again Danny Maude for sharing so much! 👍
Thanks for supporting the channel Steven
Great lesson nice and simple instruction! Thanks Danny.
Danny I know all you hear is compliments but you are an outstanding instructor!
I really do appreciate the support of this community. Thanks for taking the time to comment
Another great and helpful lesson, with simple drills! Thanks a lot, Danny!
"One lesson of Maude a day, keeps the (double) bogeys away!"
Grtz, Jan
Jan Mulder, funny, thanks Jan 😂
Great drills! Really developing the feel of this snap! Will see how it impacts my swing
gary cheng look forward to hearing how it goes
Good and clearly understood what. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful Raymond
6th lag vid Ive watched today...and the best.
Danny--I am a recent subscriber and have really enjoyed and benefited from your videos. One in particular stands out--which is the step on the big screw and turn for both the backswing and thru swing. It seems to me that if this is done properly, it solves many of the other swing mechanics that you have addressed such as creating lag, shaft lean at contact, effortless power, proper sequencing, etc. Do you agree? Thanks much!
Absolutely, its just simple body mechanics we would all generally use if we threw a ball, a discus etc
I'm really enjoying your content. In another video you have about hitting your irons pure, you mention actively bring the hands and arms down into the ball. So are both methods valid?
It is really useful drill and great instruction.
Glad you think so! Thank you for the feedback
thank you a great help to understanding lag,can wait to start practicing
Charlie Clark, thank you, keep me updated on how you get on
Brilliant explanation Danny!
Love this video along with your “up, down, and around”. My first move was to break the wrist angle, killing all lag. I’m convinced this casting caused my golfers elbow this summer.
Terrific lesson and explanation. Thank you, Dom
13DiBartolomeo, my pleasure
Awesome stuff mate! Gracias!!
My pleasure Jorge, happy to help
Wow great video this is so helpful I have subscribed. Now I can clearly see how lag works thank you
Superutubeking. Great news! Let me know how it works out for you
Loved watching your video, will try connecting to what you said today in the range . My problem is the connection between the club and the ball , I always tend to hit before or top of the ball . Have been really wanting to know why so . Your video was of great help , will try today for sure .
Wonderful, let me know how it goes at the range
Great advice, I fell into that trap of keeping the 45* angle on the downswing, and forgetting totally about moving my lower body, I was basically flat footed until after impact. Interested to know though what position you're head should be in at impact with irons, as with driver when you're head is well behind the ball. Thanks again Danny
Hi Danny l really liked this video. Very well explained lagging theory. I will try and put this in practice and let you know the result. Thank you very much.
Kishor Thakor, you are very welcome, thanks for getting in touch
✌️. Great lesson and rehearsals, Danny 🏌️♀️
Super. Gracias muy importante tip.I keep improving. 🙂
My pleasure Oscar 👍
Thanks Danny excellent drills
Hi Danny. Love these drills....although I play to a single digit I never lagged the club....today I decided after watching your videos to commit to learning the technique . Are you supposed to start down before backswing is completed? How can you tell at which point to begin moving down?
peter mies, it’s tricky to explain in just a comment but just before your upper part of your body is finishing completing its backswing the lower body begins to start down.
Great lesson, I tried it and it works a treat, many thanks.
Thanks Danny, I really like the way you simplify training to get the feeling of lag. Tim Merrifield
Tim Merrifield, thanks Tim, appreciate the feedback...if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask
Your passion is really infectious! Great video!
Scrubstomper4 USF4, funny, I’ve always been a little enthusiastic. 😁
It's really great! I can tell how much you love it. Been practicing this lag technique and it's cutting down on my fat shots big time. I had previously been using my arms for all of my power lol. If I could ask a quick question, my hips should start rotating right before the club reaches the top of the backswing? I'm having some trouble timing that.
Scrubstomper4 USF4 brilliant, great to hear
Thanks so much for responding! I think my message might have cut off there, but do I need to start my lower body rotation in the downswing while my club is still going back? I'm having some trouble timing that.
Scrubstomper4 USF4, yes bit this is not something you think about but instead something you practice the feel of.
Excellent video Really good exercises!!! Danny, it really helped me
Michael Murton that’s great Michael, well done
What and where should I feel on my left side, leg, hip, and foot as I transition my weight from my right side...as well should my right leg and foot be pushing off during this movement and I assume weight shift.....great video...very helpful...
Going to try this at the range tomorrow as I really struggle with lag!! Let you know how I get on
Kieran Ardaen-Webb, please do
Another great video, like the way you try and make everything simple, once again well done Danny.
mick19421, Thanks Mick, I’m a simple chap so I’ve got no choice 😁
This is the best explanation I've seen.
Thanks Jack, great to hear you enjoyed the training...of you have any questions don’t hesitate to drop me a message
Thanks Danny, Brilliant!
Pleasure 😁
Just tired the lag drill mate really feel the deference. I'll keep at it top man. ❤️
Right Danny the screw in the ground will be the next thing I'll be trying.
On thing I'd like to know me personally at impact my right hand is bent backwards
is this correct or should I flick the hands a bit to create more clubhead speed?
Thank you
The hands will naturally unhinge just as the do when you throw a ball. The key is to not try and do this artificially
And this one Danny and this one. Gonna work on it.
Hope it helps you David 👍
Well explained. Also some great drills. Thanks.
You explain thing really clearly and simply. Great videos.
ZombieDave2, thanks so much for taking the time to feedback. Keep me updated on your progress
Excellent explanation!
Thanks Robert!
Thanks Dan. Ace lesson. I'm off to the range now ...
Alan Young, great let me know how it goes
Sorry I missed your reply. The initial session at the range went well. As always the drills are simple and effective. Haven't got on the course much since, but the couple of time I have, I can feel that lag and am getting a better strike all round. Thanks again.
Perfect, thanks for letting me know. These things can be a little tricky to feel initially
I’ve just brought the Orange Wip , found this help me feel the club head speed
That’s great Martyn, nice training aid
Awesome drill!! Thank you.
No problem Bob 👍
Sorry for late review been on holiday. Another excellent video Danny I'm one of those players you describe at the start of the video trying to force the 90 ° angle. Will give your method a try at the weekend.
Julian Roberts, thanks again for taking time to feedback...hope you had a great break
Hey Danny, I can “feel” the lag so much easier in my woods and driver, so it’s easier to get the right “feel”. I find it so much harder for irons, any tips for getting the lag right on irons?
Great drill. Danny. Separate question? Do you have any drills for hitting fairway woods off the turf?
bob marshall, this may help: th-cam.com/video/0zV19jsN-8o/w-d-xo.html
Danny Maude thanks!
