I’ve got to tell you, sir: I’ve never heard someone so completely and clearly explain the fundamentals of a great driver swing. I’ve watched a million videos and gotten a lot of in person advice, only ever hitting 280-300 accidentally really. Watching this one video has cleared up so much that I wasn’t quite getting right. Thank you so much.
Randomly found this video. It has seriously helped me more than any other video. I am 47, started golf 3 years ago, following this video changed everything for me.
I have watched hundreds of videos on the golf swing and these tricks not only simplify, but provide the most consistent swing I have ever experienced in one video. Excellent teaching Steve!
This was the most impactful explanation of what to do with the left arm I've ever seen. I took this to the range the day I watched it, after doing a little mirror work to reinforce it. Ball was dead center of the face, flight was dead center. Amazing! Great explanation! Distance, control, all automatic.
Same result for me as well...huge difference in contact ..center face and long.
Wow Steve! I’m 70 years old and have always pulled with my left arm. Can’t wait to try this on the driving range!
this is the first youtuber that has explained how to swing properly. kudos to you sir.
I have watched a lot of these Steve Pratt videos and I was doing better, but I was still pushing drives to the right. I started doing the pec grab that he was describing here and it straightened out my drives. I could not believe it. I just tried it for the first time today when I was warming up to play. I then started using the method on the course and what a difference. I hit multiple drives over 260 yards and one of them was a roll out to 300 yards. The best thing about it, was that I was able to do it consistently and I did not feel like I was trying any harder than I was before. The golf season in Ohio is almost over, but this is now my new normal. I am going to be practicing this all winter in my garage. Great lesson, and that was a fun day of golf. Wish it worked for putting.
Major props, Steve, and I can't say enough about this particular vid, folks. (My comment is made from the perspective of a right handed golfer).
The inner bicep 'glued' to the left pec '7' position throughout the swing is (in my humble opinion) THEE most important aspect of the golf swing in that then (and ONLY then) will aspiring golfers begin to understand how the body is the hub of the motion we call, "the golf swing." Except for the last split second release of the wrists, they can now see AND understand how the body hits the ball, thanks to this very well thought-out video.
The only thing I've added to my swing (which I don't recommend to anyone new to the game until they've diligently practiced your lesson here) is that my recoiling starts when I push off with the instep of my right foot which forces my mass onto my left side WHILST my body (and the 'lucky 7' connection) rotate through the impact area. For me, this is a simultaneous move, adding a bit more speed to my rotating mass which then transfers into the ball, hence compressing the golf ball much more than by starting the transition to the left side with the hips, or shifting our weight to the left side via 'the bump,' as it is sometimes called. Pushing off with the right foot onto the left side is in fact executing a golf swing 'from the ground - up.'
Other 'absolutes' for those who are not yet aware:
1. Your tilted spine angle at address MUST BE MAINTAINED THROUGHOUT THE SWING.
2. You should see yourself looking down at where the golf ball was at address AFTER you've first struck the ball, and your head should be rolling sideways (right cheek parallel to the ground) as you watch your golf ball take off, much like you are forced to do when skipping stones across water. Why? Well for one, this will keep you from 'standing up on the shot'...a habit that results in a wayward left flight and/or a hook.
3. Film yourself often to see a sobering review of what you're doing...not what you THINK you're doing. Watching your swing frame by frame is of tremendous benefit.
I've enjoyed Mike Austin's method for years, even to the point of keeping my club face square throughout the swing.
Again, great video lesson here, Steve. This lesson alone will fix an array of bad habits for countless golfers. Keep up the great work, bud.
- a fellow 'Steve.'
I just tried this drill on the driving range and it worked great. My drives were longer and straighter. Great work, Steve
One of the most simple but best golf swing training video! I will definitely try it tomorrow!
I’ve been searching and struggling with the driver for quite some time now. I’ve taken lessons and tried many different swing thoughts but, nothing would stick. Then, I tried this swing, I couldn’t believe my own eyes by how far and straighter my shots were. Thank you so much. My game is now complete.
There are hundreds of videos on TH-cam teaching perhaps as many different and sometimes contradicting fundamentals of golf. Besides the late Dan Shauger and Mike Dunaway, Steve is also a major proponent of the true and powerful techniques that are the epitome of the legendary Mike Austin's golf swing method. Took some of Steve's tips to the driving range the other day and they "worked like a charm for me".
Steve, thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling off the tee this past season. This drill, particularly pinning my left arm as instructed has me hitting it straight and consistently much longer. Its such a simple fix and truly caused a head slapping moment.
Fascinating stuff ... Looking forward to trying it out .. Thanks Steve
Thanks for posting. Looking forward to trying it out. Keep it up!
Thank you Mr. Pratt. This video/explanation of the left arm action is truly profound. I've been struggling with this. Not anymore. Thank you sir!
Arm against pec muscle...figure 7...left arm turns over. Really good stuff Steve. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Best explanation I have ever seen of what the left arm does. I will give it a try tomorrow. Thanks.
hi sir, thanks a lot for the lesson it will definitely help correct my lead arm in the down swing . . stay safe and healthy
This is amazing. Possibly the most clear advise I have heard. Thank you
Ive seen this video b4 and skipped by it . Tonite im sooo glad i took time to watch it . Perfect info Steve . i used to do this , fell away from golf , got back and was so frustrated that i couldnt hit the way i used to .This my missing link .Thankyou sir thankyou.
Very comprehensive video ever seen, can't wait to try it in range! Thanks 👍
Awesome demonstration Steve , you make it look so Easy lol .
Appreciate your tips , putting it into practice
One of the most simple but best golf swing training video! Tomorrow on way home i stop by the driving range. Just got a M1 driver...! Thank very much. I subscribed
Cheers Nick!
Awesome video, gonna work on that 'pole drill' and the '7' image.. thank you Steve
This is such an important video. This action of the left arm is conceptually the opposite of what most of us have been taught to do. I have even studied the Golf Machine for several years and have tried to actively get the left arm to ""blast off the chest" ( release of Power Accumulator #4) - and it has just resulted in a feeling of a lot of effort with very little result. Played 9 holes tonight trying to feel this and when I did it well the results were great - lots of distance and it felt so easy just having the left arm be passive, and the power coming from the pivot and the wrists/hands.
Yes!
Update, worked on the techniques in your video at the range. This swing added 10-20 yards to my clubs and is much easier to hit consistently. The next 2 times I played golf with my buddies, I shot in the mid 80’s with 0 penalty strokes. Prior to that I wasn’t even pulling out my driver at times because of the fear of going OB. Thanks for making golf much more fun again!
Steve,
You have unlocked something that has prevented me from taking my game to the next level; the inability to drive the ball with power. Although I am 70 years old (9 handicap) and can hit a 7 iron 150 yards I have averaged about 200 yards off the tee. It is not a matter of strength but technique and I have tried almost anything and everything. Your very basic move of pinning the lead arm to the pec model (something that I have never heard from any other pro!), along with the lead hip bump got me excited about getting back to the golf course, pronto. Result from today (9 holes only): tee shots 20-30 yards longer,still a slight fade with 2 bogies, 5 pars, and 2 birdies. Even par. You have a fan and student for life, and I will certainly be recommending you to my friends and family members.
Wow wow wow Steve! Even Par! You had a shot at shooting your age! Big congrats and thanks for watching. Cheers!
Ok I think I’m a bit thick, but I had to watch this three times to get it, for many years I’ve been using the left arm to make my hit and obviously no good results. Now I know why my short irons were good shots because I locked that left arm in. I realized I need to do that with all my clubs. 💡 can’t wait to put this to the test. Thank you.
Steve- used your arm pin technique in today's round and hit it better and more consistently than I have in 2 years. Repeatable and easy. It was fun chasing fairways and pins all day. Thanks and all the best!
I am 58 years old. Why did it take me 30 years of golf to first hear about the "Maintain The Figure 7" concept. My gosh! Thank you!
So many are teaching the opposite!
This is definitely an issue for me. Too much arm pulling instead of rotation. Very helpful thanks.
Still watching this vid right before I play or during a range session. Great stuff man!
Steve, makes a lot sense! i'll start implementing the techniques and report back.
So that figure 7 thing is huge !!! I watched this video at lunch yesterday and went to the range after work now my average is 240 to 250, - with that figure 7 as my only thought I hit 7 consecutive balls straight past 280 crazy 😜 I’m not one too even comment but this flat out works !!!!!
really, that is incredible
Your right and left arm videos are great! Thank you.
A very important video. The Mike Austin video was a mind blower for me . Thank you Steve
Finally a video that shows me how I can take advantage of being lefthanded with a right hand golf swing, too bad I'm 72 not 22, but I'll take it, that drill is so easy for me. IT WORKS!!!!! 😁👍👍👍👍
I'm the same....I throw left, and the left is dominant hand. However, I golf and bat right handed. I have the tenancy to pull the club too
I’m the same as you guys. Left dominant but the world has forced me in to righty so often I’m basically ambidextrous now. This video is awesome.
Really exciting to watch. Even a moron like me got your message. Your lesson was captivating. Gave me the confidence and eagerness to practice this in the nets like… right away!
Probably one of the best explanations of the correct connection required between the left arm and torso to produce power & consistency. Bravo Steve.
Very nice explanation on how to use the left arm's centrifugal force for a longer driven golf ball. Thanks a lot!
I did the swing but was to early and the results were awesome . So can't wait to try it with the better swing next time , as it had great power development and I was still not doing it right , lol.
Great explanations and love your teaching skills. It's just your working with guys that don't have the full picture all the time. Love it.
I’m late to the party here but this was amazing Steve (Steve also here). I always loved the shirt tuck into armpit drill feel and I think your explanation here is exactly why I like it. I never found anyone who did it with driver until now…well done
Terrific video. This move makes a dramatic difference.
Thank you so much!
Wowwww. A lesson worth millions!!! Explained a lot how the lag is created actually. Thanks a lot for sharing the content
Cheers Jimmy! When can I expect the check to come in the mail? ;)
This makes totally sense.. thanks for a great explanation!
Really like your swing and left arm drills.
Good explanation . Work well for me . He points out the detail . Thank you Steve.
I have found your videos very insightful and unique. Really good stuff
Great, simple explanation - can't wait to work on these!!!
UPDATE: I took this technique out to the driving range and saw immediate results. I started to hit more consistently with greater distance and with less effort! I then took it to my golf lesson where my instructor tweaked my legs a little (slightly narrower stance and dropped my right leg about 2" for more hip rotation). All of a sudden, my ball flight was a couple of yards left of center with massive distance gains - without swinging any faster or harder!!! Great technique! Steve, THANK YOU for translating the complicated into something us mortals can understand.
This was one of the moves that took my striking to a new level. A pitfall to be aware of when trying to execute this move is hanging back too much with the upper body and spinning the 7 out. Remember to feel a nice lateral shift back to your lead side before you start down and then arrive with the 7 through the ball.
This Steve's Pec Grab saved my day! It gets me back to hitting long again! I am 60 now and have lost the lower body leading the down swing and pulling the arms through. Especially the recent years due to varies miner injuries I've changed my swing so much just to get by so that I can get on the course. The result is I've lost my swing and hard to back to hitting solid and long. Tried all kinds of suggestions from online and friends with no prevail. Even tried once Steve's leading arm pec'ed first but did not stick to it long enough. This time I see obvious result - drives passing my playing partners 40-50 yards! Solid and much longer on my irons, too!
Another reason I see this methods works particularly well is that I pay golf, and anything with two hands hockey (used to play in college), baseball, etc...left-handed, while anything with one hand right-handed. Actually my right arm is stronger than the left. I've been thinking to develop a swing leveraging my stronger leading/right arm, looks that I've found it! Im going to stick to it and make my swing more efficient. I believed it'll be more consistent, and even longer! Thank you so much, Steve Pratt, for this technique. Im writing this comment is for anyone out there maybe in a similar situation to be able to benefit from Steve's swing tip and to enjoy this game more! All says golf is a frustrating game, but you'd feel so exited and rewarding when hitting them solid and long! And Im sure falling of score will soon follow!
Harry
Totally Awesome training... never seen anything like this before...but it works ...wow!!!
Super video. Exactly whatI have not been doing! thanks Steve.
One of the best tips I have ever seen.. . Thank you, thank you, thank you
Awesome Steve. It is always amazing when the swing gets broken down into what is actually happening. Thanks again. Eric
Pulling my left arm is my number 1 problem that I will be working on. Great video! Thanks Steve.
Cheers Finger!
Love this video Steve!😎
Thanks steve I am on it as the concept looks correct through impact. Cheers
That's good stuff ! Very easy to see how it all works! Thanks!
subscribed ! After seeing one video, excited to see more from you. This was a great lesson. Deep but understandable principles. Can't wait to get to the range tomorrow!
Cheers James!
Super video. Well explained and makes perfect sense. Will definitely try to work on this. Many thanks
Cheers Richard!
Excellent presentation. Clear and informative.
Awesome video Steve!!!
Yes sir that is great info, I have not been able to get any extra yardage but this is making great sense , Thanks
Super lesson. Very practical explanation of how to get more power with less ‘hitting’ motion.
What a great demonstration of the swing. I’m off to the range tonight. Thanks Steve!
Kind words Francis! Cheers!
hi Steve great video really enjoyed it. I was hoping when you were up against the pole you would face the other direction as you did for just a second during your drill with the ball. cant wait to try that, thanks.
Wowwow!. Just what i needed to know. I wanna try this out right away! Thank you so much.
Finally some really good - and non confused instruction - thanks soooo much
Cheers Kevin!
I'm still amazed at the left foot movement in your swing. You get the benefit of two different front foot positions; one just slightly open for the backswing and then you pick up and reposition the foot (and downswing pivot axis) closer to your CG to get you stacked up sooner without any slide and open the foot out to free the hips for the hit. You once told me you had an injury that caused this, but I think you've invented a better way!
Great video Steve!!
so great tips!!! thx for sharing!
Can't wait to go to the range to practice this !!
Absolutely fantastic demonstration and explanation. Thank you.
Cheers!
Another great video ! Love it
Excellent! Couldn't be more clear. One step at a time. Thanks much!
This is the best demonstration of the role of the left arm that I have seen. Great video and something I shall definitely work on.
Cheers Adrian!
Absolutely life changing. Blistering the ball now.
This really works. Focus on keeping arms completely relaxed. I’ve added at least 15 more yards to my drives according to the track tracer at the range. Going to keep working on it over the winter.
Cheers Ken!
Excellent lesson as always. Thanks!
Thanks! Really helped me greatly today... much more fairway hits!
Excellent demo on the twist im definitely going to try
Thx for posting
Love this video, I keep coming back to this one!!
Yay! Thank you!
Outstanding thanks for the simplicity 👍🏿
Great lesson great detail explanation
Fantastic explanation, will try it out .tks
Excellent video, easy to visualize
Hi Steve. I'm a very beginner. This helped a lot to solve few issues I had. Good work. Keep it up. Cheers.
Cheers Ravin!
Great explanation of left arm.Will try this out tomorrow.
An excellent explanation in how to create club head speed by throwing the club head.
Wow; thank you, Steve. I'll give it a try!!
I'm 70 Years old and have been struggling with my drive for the past several years. I played yesterday with the Pec grab and Figure 7. I outdrove my buddies for the first time. Straight and long. I love it. They kept saying "you are really turning through the ball today". I wasn't thinking of that I guess it just happened. I'm going to study up on the other video of hip moving an inch to target to better square the shoulders next time. Thanks Steve.
Wow that's terrific! Thanks for watching.
Not seen this concept before, really looking forward to trying thse tips out on the range. 👍
Very nice explanation on how to use the left arm's centrifugal force for a longer driven golf ball. Thanks a lot!
I will try to apply this in my golf swings..Regards
Once again understandable instructions. Thank you
So well explain, it’s make so much sense forcing us so much to use our body in the turn and how the arms should behave to not initiate the downswing. 👍
Really good concept
Best explanation of figure 7 I've come across, thank you very much! I'll definitely add these drills with my homemade FLAMMER!
This also explains Mr. Austin's explanation of not getting his sleeve dirty and throwing the clubhead into the bank
