    I'm 69 years old and have been playing golf for 57 years. I've watched countless self-help golf videos. THIS drill has made a greater impact on my driving distance than any other single drill I've ever tried. I've only worked with it during two practice sessions, but my driving average for my last round was 17 yds longer (247 vs. 230). I can't wait to get more comfortable with this new swing feel which, I think, will result in even greater distances. There's no single silver bullet for golf, but this drill comes close! THANKS!

    This is absolute Gold!!! This is what I've been missing to create effortless club speed, power, and compression. New word for me...Float Load. My club speed is around mid 60's to low 70's no matter how hard I swing. I will work on this Float Load drill. Thank you so much for sharing!

    It’s a phenomenal video. I accidentally “found” this swing years ago and have been trying to rediscover it ever since because it only lasted a single round back then and I didn’t know I how to recreate it. This video had me reclaim it and I absolutely blasted my drives last time out, not to mention the perfectly pure contact with the also unusually long iron shots…

    I agree with the previous comment. I tried it and for the first time understood how the feeling of the weightlessness of the club helps your body manage the transition and acceleration in the downswing. No rushing down, no casting, just easy solid swing. Best drill ever.

    Float loading at the top with a slower tempo downswing eliminated my tendency to cast and lose all lag by the time I reached parallel. So good!

    • @joesunova8874

      Good or bad idea? As I go from parallel to impact I am also adding pushing the grip end down with my left (lead) hand and lifting the grip with my right hand. Seems to promote lag thru impact and ensure right wrist stays bent as I “think” about having right hand knuckles up as I lift. Don’t want to overthink every swing - just trying to train my hands. Thoughts? Thanks.

    Checking in again Clay has a few videos over 100k views and one at 319K but this one now should hit over 100K soon up to 91K now WOWZA. Should focus on the float load it works and can help all OG’s BTW Bobby Jones #1 thing he made sure to do was Float Load. He didn’t call it that but it was same thing.

    I can honestly say that once you get the hang of this it literally is game changing. I’m hitting everything 15-20 yards further with less effort. My low point is stillllll a little behind the ball but this tip cured my pull hooks! Any tips on doing this and getting a low point after the ball better?

    • @SteveMe21685
      @SteveMe21685 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Just a thought….at address, release all the tension you’re holding in your arms especially your inner shoulder crease. Then allow the swing to begin in your body and controlled by your feet. I have the same issue of sometimes hitting behind the ball and I find that it happens when I’m trying to do too much with my arms. Good luck!

    Loving the float load concept, looking forward to trying it. Doubt I will get 194 yd total with my 8 iron which seems silly long given the easy looking swing you did, but I know my numbers , so looking to see if gains are possible with seemingly less effort.
    I’ll report back and give you “ real world “ 64 yr old 6 HCap before and after... using range balls, top tracer tech ( pretty accurate for ball speeds) in cold Glasgow November weather, if I can float load with 4 layers of clothing on and my stiff old body and get gains.. you will hear about it !

  • @quezebojones9352
    @quezebojones9352 ปีที่แล้ว

    Watched in frame by frame and when you did the full swing at 8:22 there was absolutely no "float load" Is this just a thought?

  • @ronaldsirianni8602
    @ronaldsirianni8602 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Interesting concept with regards to the "floating swing" and makes sense. However, there appears to be some conflict with finishing the swing. Now in contrast to the last video I just watched with Clay, it was recommended using the left forearm to pull down on the club and the last 3 fingers of the left hand should be gripping the end of the grip tightly in the pull down move. Not to mention I cannot tell you the number of videos I've watched and the discrepancy with regards to the hand position at impact. Left wrist bowed, right wrist hinged, roll the wrist over shortly after impact, don't roll your wrist. Way too much inconsistency. That is withe exception of just about every video ending with click the link below to learn the "E Slot maneuver" to finish the swing. I've seen the video and it still doesn't answer the question of just what is the correct hand position at impact.

  • @TeddyCavachon

    Just a observation. The action which is occurring but not being mentioned is the side bending action of the spine. All good ball strikers do it so reflexively they often don’t realize it but it is not something that most beginners do when swinging a club.
    Biomechanically the action is similar to the under arm tossing of a rock across the surface of a pond. If done at the top of the backswing you will observe by just side bending and doing nothing else it causes the shoulders to tilt more than the hips which swings the hands down and forward in an arc and causes the trail arm to tuck into the rib cage. What makes that move “magic” in the Harry Penick sense is that it is possible to side bent backwards while the shoulders are still being pulled forward by the club momentum in the backswing. When you isolate the side bend action you will discover it also creates a reflexive shifting of the hips laterally in reaction to the upper body mass moving backwards; the sub-conscious brain reacting to keep the body in balance over the feet just as it does when winding up to throw a ball with the trail arm.
    Pulling the hand down with side bend action against the forward inertia of the club head is what causes the shaft to bend and store potential energy from the backswing - the advantage of metal and carbon shafts vs. hickory Byron Nelson discovered. But to maintain that shaft bend and lag in the wrists it creates the laws of physics dictate that the hands need to keep trying to acceleration faster than the club head mass. That is accomplished in the swing of good ball strikers because in their downswings then progressively increase the amount of side bend.
    I came to realize this by analyzing videos of pro swings frame by frame. The more a golfer’s anatomy allows them to side bend in the downswing the more they can keep the hands pulling down against the inertia of the club head mass. In the swings of most recreational golfers which lack progressive side bend action the hands don’t keep accelerating faster than the club head mass resulting in the bend coming out of the shaft early in the downswing - casting.
