THE BIGGEST MISTAKE WITH LAG IN THE GOLF SWING ( Do This Instead! )

- In this video I want to talk about a very common mistake that people make when trying to create lag. Although many people try and create lag in the golf swing to improve their distance, you have to be careful with how you are using your wrists otherwise you will definitely do more harm than good...

Where the heck has this guy been my entire golfing career. He understands the game not only for himself but, more importantly, for the typical golfer. His instruction is spot on. Can't wait to sign up for lessons. I have never posted a comment on youtube before and I have no association with or benefit from this review. I am truly impressed with his teaching and explanation of fundamental skills.
Yes, JK is one of the best youtube instructors I have seen so far.
@@johntatum8088 Milo Lines is good.
I don't usually interact with TH-cam instruction but you are my favorite instructor on the channel. if you weren't in a different country I would definately book a lesson with you. All of your content is fantastic and I hope you keep up the great informational content!

Yes, I really love the way JK makes things clear.
You just nailed the problem I have with my driver. Off to the range I go!
I'm a scratch player and have recently been feeling like I get "lag stuck", where my arms are pretty well in sync but I have so much lag near impact that I'm still forced to flip the club hard or try to almost come over the top and pull fade it with the driver to have any chance at hitting my target. This video gave me some great insight as to what I may be doing in transition to cause this. I don't necessarily feel like my wrist is cupped, but now I know there's no way for me to get that angle without cupping it. Great video and thanks for the tips!!
best golf lesson ever on youtube, it really changed my swing completely.
That was a a very simple and lucid explanation of a very subtle move in the back swing, which a lot of us do without realising. For those of us who learned to play golf before the joys of you tube and the likes of good coaches like you, it unfortunately became ingrained into our swings and now has to be unlearned! Thanks for a great video!
"which a lot of us do without realising"
which you imagine that a lot of people do, which they may actually do, but I doubt that many people call that "lag"
Even though it is kind of nitty gritty, I really like the way you explain the anatomical break down of the swing. As you say, many instructors very casually talks about the necessity of lag without bothering to understand the consequenses. Or they perhaps have extremely quick wrists so that they can square the club face in time. However, I don't have that so this vid was really good in that sense. Thanks and keep on Jonathan.
No one on the whole inet has explained this - this well. So simple but also so so important. Brilliant. 👌👌👌👌👌
Your instructional videos are exceptionally good! I've never really understood what the wrists should be doing until now. Great stuff!
Haven't tried it out yet, but I'm so excited. The misconception explained at the beginning was mind opening. Thanks.
Thank you. I have been struggling with my golf swing in my late 70's and chicken winging over the past two years. I have now corrected my swing thanks to you. I am most grateful. Bless you
I am in the process of taking the game back up after 15 yr. hiatus due to sports injuries, arthritis, joint replacements, back issues, etc. I am healthy and mobile enough (though weight loss, stretching, core strength, bicycling) to get out and try to swing my clubs. Could not swing correctly or consistantly - was a mess. I have been watching Jonathan's video's and practicing the drills and it has been - "wa-la!" there's that old crushing it feeling again! I am 65 and can't hit it as far, but am much more consistant and more apt to flush my irons. Loving that I can play again. Jonathan is great - extremely clear, concise, technical & helpful!!
Excellent !!! Jonathan is really good at isolating "nuances", that is key components of the swing, and 1) giving you awareness of what is going on, and 2) giving you explicit drills for working on these "components". In golf, there are thousands of "components" and coordinating them is a whole additional story to that. Like grammar, there are a thousand pieces you have to put together. Well, you have to start somewhere, and eventually you'll get there. Jonathan's explanations and videos are EXCELLENT for helping along the way. They are helping me in any case. Thanks Jonathan! You're wise beyond your years!
FInally the right explanation for wrists! For months of practice I have always slice to the right because open club, cant wait to try it tomorrow. Thank you !
I wish I would have understood the wrist flex and wrist extension years ago. Excellent explanation of the incorrect way to create lag.
You're a beast at teaching golf, your channel is going to blow up soon
Talk too much. Too basic. 3/4 on the mistake. The cure should be more explore novice
incredible how this simple explanation has corrected almost 90% of my problems with the Swing. Awesome, I can´t understand why his is not being said by all golf instructors,
Great information. For those that already understand the concept skip to 5:06. The prior discussion is also interesting though.
being playing 20 yrs of golf...why i didn't realize till now!!!, ty Jonathan
Easily best coach on TH-cam. Incredible break down for your average golfer.
Perfect!!!!!
Ive been wondering about that So Much. You have definitely Cleared it up!
Keep it Comin
Thanks again for a great video. Explains why I shank when I try to create more lag all the time
Great tip....JK is actually trying to keep it simple, but lag is a fairly complicated concept. I think he did well to make it clear about how to not over do the wrist flex at the top of the swing.
Clear and short instructions. Thank you for not too rambling as many other youtube swing coaches.
The clearest explanation of this I have ever heard! A lightbulb moment. Thank you!
I've watched a crap ton of online golf content back when I was learning the game for the first couple years and your explanations and content are absolutely on another level.
Fix my lag problem immediately. Outstanding insight into fixing my 3 years problem.
These are excellent lessons. Thank you.
Clear and concise instructions, and extremely helpful for me. You are a very clear communicator... Thank you!!!
Great instruction, I like how you just get straight into it, I don't need to skip the first 10mins like other vids.
Really worked I'm so surprised with your lesson.I would have get your videos before. Thank J.K....Your video is my best lesson ever.
This is an almost impossible to find explanation. Usually, you are never told this. A honest Pro showed me exactly that subject and it worked kind of a wonder. I shall go deeper into this channel. Thank you. Jonathan!
JK. Many thanks for this. This has been a big issue for me personally and your excellent explanation has opened my eyes. I have always made this lead hand cupping move and you have helped me a lot here.
The light has just clicked on! Brilliant. Thank you!
Exceptionally good instructions based on perfect analysis of anatomical movements.
I do it correctly already but didn't know it. Thanks for the explanation, nice to know that at least I am doing something right!
Fantastic tip. What a difference this made. I can finally have some confidence hits my irons.
I wholly concur with the previous comments- your explanation of how to manage wrist position is far and away the best I’ve seen. I love the drill as well. Thank you, and keep up the great work!
Great explanation to the details. Thank you very much, Jonathan!
👍
Always to the point...
No unnecessary bs...
Well done...keep it up.
Very fluent and skilled in describing a powerful and accurate increase in club head speed. Well done.
I’ve been watching your videos, they are simple and easy to follow. You have a great thing going on, keep it up
How did this show up in my feed today? I went three holes yesterday where I kept hitting the ball to the right and I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. Although I was able to fix the problem with with a different thought process, this video explains it better than the method I came up with!
This is pure gold. Thanks Johnathan!
Been golfing for 16 years, I've never been a "short" player but felt I could be getting a little more. After first try with this small adjustment I added 10 mph club head speed to my 7 iron! Thanks for the quick easy to understand tip!
cut your clubshaft and head weight in half, see what that does to your swingspeed
I had no idea that I was cupping so badly in order to "increase" my backswing until watching this video. Absolutely brilliant as always!
By far you are best I’ve seen on TH-cam. Keep it up.
Wow, was working on the exact same thing at the range today, but was not sure if I was going in the right direction. The shots were much better today. I got the idea from watching some tour players on the back swing (Dustin Johnson and others). It has really helped and now this video explains and confirms perfectly. Thank you Jonathan. Best video I have seen yet, on wrist hinge. Cheers.
Your are one of the best trainers on u tube my score went from average 85 to 90 to 85 to 80 in a couple of weeks with your tips hitting ball much crisper now just got to work on that putting lol
Extremely convincing and useful explanation with sound anatomical underlying theory!
I have been researching golf lessons for a long time, but I recognize that Jonhatan Moss is undoubtedly one of the best, because he explains all the movements and consequences in detail. It would be great if you lived in Portugal to be able to take some classes.
Fantastic explanation of the wrist position. I have been using a cup wrist for years. Problem solved. Thanks
This is Gold! Explained so well.
What a great point on with the wrist angle , that's help me greatly . Great presentation
Thanks Jonathon. This is like the twist away. Great reinforcement. 👍
It's crazy - I've seen so many videos where instructors say to bow the wrist in transition and the downswing. For me this was always useless because of how much other stuff was happening in the transition. The clear advice about increasing ulnar deviation in the takeaway to promote more lead wrist flexion = gold.
Great lesson. I can't wait until I get to the range tomorrow. Thank you.
Thank you for that very good explanation it’s actually the first time it ever gives meaning thank you for the good contents
Such a helpful visual way for me to understand what's happening it what to avoid
Wow Jonathan, great video! This is what I need. My blade is way to open in the backswing. Keep up your great work🙏
This was incredibly helpful. I didn’t realize how much I was cupping my lead wrist. Thank you!!!
God, I’ve been waiting for this topic for so long. Great job ! Thank you!
At this moment I have taken 3 golf lessons with some degree of success, but watching your videos has put it all into perspective. You have a unique way of explaining the golf swings errors and corrections that has really helped me.
I have subscribed and I am now pouring through your videos and working on your exercises with the recommended tools when it applies. Looking forward to your videos, keep up the excellent work.
Thanks for the very clear explanation. I couldn’t work out why I had started hitting to my right and then occasionally snap-hooking. Will try bowing the wrist when practicing.
good clean description of this, you keep talking and explain well, subscribed
Jonathon… another great vlog. I am resident in the UK and trying to set up a group of lessons but the process is very confusing
So accurate in everething I watched from you and so helpful.
Thank you.
And keep your excellent job.
Very clearly explained thank you 👍
Great stuff Jonathan - I think this might just be one of the best explanations of wrist angle I've come across. I'm subscribing.
Great explanation and the best drill to feel that, that I have seen out of all the teachers on here that I've been watching. And you get right to the point without making a 15 minute video full of fluff. Thank you for your time.
Wonderfully explained
Amazing! Perfect explained !
Great drill ....great teacher ....well done
Exact issue I've been having. Awesome explanation!!
I had trouble cupping, now I gave a flatter wrist position, thanks.
You are a great teacher. Excellent video!
I am new to your TH-cam. I hv found your videos very useful. They help in my analysis n that it helps to confirm things I am doing with my swings while trying to improve my game. Thank you, keep up the good effort 👍
I have watched thousands of TH-cam videos and something about Jonathon's teaching just clicks with my brain. So happy I found JCM. Hopefully these lessons will improve my inconstant game. About to check out his website for swing analysis. Thanks JCM
Great analysis Jonathan!
Dude absolutely brilliant video,,,,,,I’m most of the time hitting the with an open club face and now cannot wait to try that way out thanks a lot Kim 👍👍
GREAT VIDEO Glad your account has taken off and getting going. One of the best of YT
Outstanding instruction! Well explained. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I think this is exactly what I do which results in either the going right or flipping of the hands.
Will give it a go tomorrow.
Great video, it also agrees with other teachers on what to do, just described in a different way. So when I see something being taught by several different instructors it's going to be something to pay attention to. I'll be watching more of your lessons, thanks.
I’ve struggled to improve down further from a 6/7 handicap as I frankly do not understand the physics of the game despite playing for a long time (sad but true); your simple and clear explanations are greatly helping. I hit some very solid irons on the range yesterday >> right to target and >> not moving in the wind. I was only thinking of the elbow position and bottoming out with left hand and club both being in a straight line after impact. Working on a in to out path as mine is the reverse of that. I like your honest no nonsense approach. 🙌👍👏
Another great video!! Thanks a lot for all the videos you share
Extremely helpful, thank you!
First video I've watched - subscribed. Not only is this my issue (almost corrected the outside in, but as a result of my wrists, I have to make corrections, stand up, and continually drive the ball left), you've explained it with anatomical terms, which is helpful. I'm gonna try this drill at the range today (if it stops raining anytime soon!)
Really good explanation! Thank you so much
Thanks!
thanks alot
Hi John
Love your clear presentations
I'm having trouble getting a consistent impact position. I'm prone to flipping the clubbed at impact try and draw the all.
I tried something today, I pulled the clubbed back about 8" from the ball at address and started my swing from there, ska mo Norman, and wow, great contacts and full commitment through the hitting zone.
Can you maybe explain to me why this works cf conventional address position with clubbed at the ball.
Regards
Stuart McAllister
Best teacher on the web!!!!
Best explanation of cupping I’ve seen. Amazing. Wishing this guy another few zeros on his subs.
This almost made me give it all up.. very imp to undestand. Thx for the videos.. cheers mate
Very good explanation and drill; you have been my TH-cam golf instructor this past year
This is exactly my issue. I keep slicing and NOW I understand what may be my cause and the cure. Thank You Jonathan!! I'm heading off to the driving range.
I was wondering if you can explain the best way to increase my swing speed. Thank for your help
Very interesting. I will give this a try on the range tomorrow.
I tried to change my wrists as per your lesson. It is not easy after doing it the wrong way too long. I did see improvement but must work more at it. Creating more space between my club and body also appeared to help avoid fading. But I don't understand why.
That’s a GREAT drill! I love it. I started doing it in my warm up and it sets me on a great path for the day. THANK YOU!
