This guy seriously needs a weekly 1/2 hr TV show with guests like this .... really great instruction with a really positive & great way......keep em coming Mr. Saguto ....!!
I sincerely appreciate that, Andy! Feel free to reach out to the folks at The Golf Channel, but I don't think they'd know what to do with me.....😎 Thanks for your message and support!! Tom
@@SagutoGolf Well the reason they won't call is The Golf Channel would only need one episode, and everyone will be stripping the ball in crispy delicious fashion.
For those of you not that familiar with the intricacies of Teaching the golf swing, having Played the game for 57+ years, with a +2.8 cap along with a wife that is a Class A Teaching Pro, what Tom did here in approximately 15 minutes with this Newb is something that very very very few of the other YTube golf "gurus," cough..cough, lol, could do!! They would have 💯+ excuses on why they could not do it with their swing philosophy, methodology, etc., As my Teacher of 32+ years would tell his apprentices(my wife), students and anyone within earshot, "The proof is in the divot." To take her from topping and rolling the ball to contact with a correct divot is something that most mid/high caps NEVER achieve consistently!! EVER!! Superbly Played Brother👊 Continued Success🍻 RP
RP.... you are far too kind. I sincerely appreciate your very generous words and professional validation. Teagan did a fabulous job in her first ever lesson, and since she came to me as a true beginner with a clean and unbiased slate, there were no bad habits or "ghosts of swings past" to deal with. Instead, we were able to simply and efficiently build the first stage of the "machine". Kudos to her for her ability to grasp and implement on the fly! Thank you again for your support, and please send my regards to your wife! Tom
Tom just taught this girl more in 10 min than the teachers at my local range have taught their students in HOURS of class ... I see the same people struggling every week ... and the same lame advice given to them
I can’t thank you enough for these videos. I commented a few months ago after having an embarrassing game with friends and became determined to learn. I watched a handful of your videos and went to the range a few times to prep for a golf outting I agreed to go. It was for special needs children. With your advice I can hit a dead straight shot and get great contact on the ball. I actually managed to golf under 100, I was so proud. The people in my squad were super impressed with me by the end of the day. All i was thinking during the day was your advice. Shoulder to shoulder, make sure club face is facing out and not up. Also don’t worry about the bring back and keep the forward swing below the line. Thanks again Tom, you made a golf fan for life

Amazing lesson. That was brilliant instruction and nice to see everything from start to finish. Please do more of these and if possible a senior who might suffer from joint pain. I’d love to see how you transform them. 🎉🎉🎉

It's not that Teagan isn't "good" at golf, Daniel - she is a true beginner and this was her first ever lesson! And based on these initial results, I think she has tremendous potential to be a solid player! Now, since you would like to see more....

This was seriously impressive Tom! Taking someone who couldn't even hit the ball to compressing it in 15 minutes is miracle work my man. I've been a believer for a year now... and your instruction videos applied into 25 rounds this summer has got me down from a 17.5 handicap (where I've been around for 30 years)... down to a 11.2... the way you teach the simplification of the swing and weight mechanics to more easily and consistently create that 'crispy' contact was the game-changer for me... (and right elbow in lol)... thank you for the good work you do.

Tom, you are absolutely the BEST golf instructor I've encountered in person or on TH-cam. You're so good at explaining the whys and hows of the golf swing without making it complicated or boring. To top it all off, you point out that it really boils down to a relatively few basic moves to hit the ball KFC style. I'm still smashing high, straight shots thanks to the same advice that you are giving in this video. I've seen plenty golf instructors on the driving range - compared to you, they are a big waste of time and money.

I bookmark more Saguto videos than any other. Always condenses the swing to the essential elements (that work every time), and does it with humor and positivity.

First swing took a divot, and in the right spot! Amazing! I’ve been watching Tom for over a year and I still learned something from this video that I need to correct. Great video. Also like going back to the drawing board. We all make a bad shot and need to reset.
Yes! Teagan did an awesome job, right?? I'm very glad to know that this video documenting her lesson resonated with you, and I hope the instructional details contained therein serve your swing well when you put them into practice! Tom
I’m a believer! Ever since I have used Tom’s direction, my game has improved immensely! Shot a 85 today with 2 7’s on the back 9 and it was my bad decisions that cased me from not breaking 80. This works! Thanks Tom. Now to fine tune my short game and 70’s here I come!
This is what makes Tom the best golf instructor on TH-cam, if not the world. He can take a beginner golfer and in 15 short minutes have her hitting crispy, consistent, jaw-dropping shots.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words and support! Teagan did an awesome job! Hard to believe she is a true beginner and that this was her first lesson - with the added pressure of the local news station camera rolling to boot!! (By the way, here is the piece that was aired on the NBC affiliate: www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/ ) Thanks again! Tom
I appreciate that, Ivan! I'm very glad to know that this video documenting Teagan's lesson resonated with you, and I hope the instructional details contained therein serve your swing well when you put them into practice! Tom
Been playing for 30+ years. I implemented this entire setup today at the range. I was also told to always hold the club just tight enough to not lose it. I gripped it and ripped it. I’ve never hit the ball so flush in my life. Nuked 80% of my shots. It seems my main issue with the lead arm was bending a lot more than I thought during the backswing. Love the channel.

Your lessons are truly great!!! Your technical details.... Simple, effective and not much talks. One suggestion, when hitting the ball should the focus is to hit the ball behind, middle or front? Also, please show slow motions when hitting the ball. Thank you so much!!!! Love your TH-cam Lesson.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Ramon, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction content and teaching style are resonating with you!! I personally just look at the top of the ball as I find that helps me to keep my head in place throughout the motion - a very important swing key for consistency. That's me. Some have success focusing on a particular quadrant of the ball or even a specific dimple. Still others do well with concentrating on a spot in front of the ball or even the back of the ball. You have to figure out what works best for you and your tendencies. I slow down my swing in numerous videos, but even when I don't you can still manually adjust the playback of any YT video to as slow as 1/4-speed by clicking on the settings button at the lower right side of the video player. Or you can pause a video and press the period ( . ) button to advance frame by frame and the comma ( , ) to reverse frame by frame. Thank you again for your message and support!

Thank you for making this inspiring video! I am on my way down from a 34 index to a 28 and am hopeful now! I know less is more because of your simple guidance. I had rotator cuff surgery in late Feb from my "all arm" complicated swing and am following your teaching and am rebuilding with foundational Saguto wisdom. I love your quote, " Life is too short to play bad golf". Thanks a million. 🙌🏌️♀️

Thanks so much for your ongoing support, Tom!! By the way, I saw Steven on Monday at the MB World Am 19th Hole. Your presence was very much missed. I hope all is well with you! Tom
@@SagutoGolf All is well Tom. Moved from golf central in The Villages of Florida and came back to Georgia. Came out of retirement, again😀. I still watch your videos and still a member of your online school where I watch the development of several guys. I still can’t believe that at 67 years old, I hit the golf ball better than I ever have, and I thank you.
Your videos have helped me in the past and this one did too. Maybe I’m just a slow learner but it seems like I understand a concept but it takes a while for it to click. I knew to keep the weight on my lead leg but today I saw how her trail leg was slightly angled. I imitated it at the range today and wow, a small change and huge results.

Tom a totally awesome golf lesson. I can vouch for your knowledge as I have been using your swing. I am 77 and still play off the blue tees. I tied my best game ever with a score of 75 over the 6600 yard on a champion golf course here in Brazil. Your swing is a very simple one and easy to learn and generates a lot of power. I agree with other comments here in that you should have a regular half hour show on TV or here on TH-cam. It would certainly help young and old golfers to play better and with a lot of fun .Many thanks Tom. Regards Jerry in Brazil.

I’ve only been playing a few months and was so inconsistent where the club bottomed out at I searched TH-cam and found you watched tons of old videos and new and took the mini course in the last two weeks I’ve only played once and saw a small improvement but I’m feeling more confident with the swing now can’t want to play again next week and see the progress I believe in the swing now it’s up to me to execute it

@@SagutoGolf Teagan did a great job sharing your passion and knowledge. I just love all your analogies. I have been implementing your techniques. And my ball striking has really improved. Especially my utility's and woods. My driver goes higher, almost too high. I'd prefer more distance. I learned so much from watching how you instructed Teagan. I need to watch more of your videos. Do you have any on putting? On a more personal note, I think you and Teagan should get to know each other better. You never know, you seemed to have some chemistry. 😍🤩😍 Best to you both!

Hi Tom so glad I returned to your channel! My game kept going up and down with no consistency! Came across your channel again a day or two ago I seem to understand it better this time. Went this morning first time out and shot 79. Should have been better but messed up a couple chips. I’m back to stay! Thx 😊
OUTSTANDING!! I saw your previous message. Glad to have you back onboard - for good 😎 - and thanks for sharing today's success. Keep up the great work and keep it crispy out there!! 💪💪 Tom
Wow. Tom's teaching ability and simple approach are true talents. He did in 15 minutes what most pros couldn't do in a year's worth of lessons. I wish I could go back and unlearn all of my bad habits and be taught correctly as a true newbie by Mr. Krispy KFC! Thankful I found Tom's channel and joined the KFC club. I am already on my way to better golf. My home is in Greenville, SC. I will definitely have to visit you, Tom, in person. Maybe a 2-day golf camp?

Wow, after this video and a range session today, I understood, what I was doing wrong. I followed your videos for some months now and my shots got really better and straighter and I can hit a draw now as a slicer which is amazing. BUT I couldn’t get that zip, you are describing in your videos. Today finally I watched my swing in the mirror and it made click. I unconsciously move my wrist in the backswing and I swing to high, which leads to a crossing the line swing. I finally understood, what you are meaning with no wrist movement and the arms connecting to the body. After that I tried to do a low swing with a good body turn and there was it. The Ziiiipppp!!! Haha. I did a video of my swing and for the first time in my life I saw swing that finally did not look like an over the top swing and the backswing looked automatically more like what some pros are doing. And this even without thinking to drop the arms and such, what I was used to do as a slicer. My only thought was to have weight on my front leg! Thank you very much man. I started golf at the age of 9 and am 30 now with some break of 12 Years. But for my whole golfing life I thought that people who manage to play draws are some magicians and I got frustrated more and more, that I just couldn’t come from the inside. Thank you very much for your different approach, which worked for me! :-)

Stack and tilt for beginners really is a match made in heaven in my opinion. Your first goal when starting out is just getting some good contact. Mission accomplished.
Indeed. Teagan did an excellent job, right?! And with regard to Stack and Tilt, here's the thing: S&T is a robust _SYSTEM_ for swinging the golf club and not a specific swing unto itself. The system is rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology, and it is modeled on empirical observations of the game's greatest ball strikers. As such it does not discriminate by age or ability - from kids to seniors and everyone in between, and from true beginners like Teagan to the best players in the world. Watch any Tour event on TV and you'll see a significant number of players executing the trademark motions of the S&T system, a fact corroborated by just how many of them have a very centered swing with the lead knee flexing and the trail leg straightening during the backswing, their lead arms on or very close to their tilted shoulder planes, and their hands deep behind their trail shoulders at the top. Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your support! Tom Saguto, PGA
S and T is NOT just for beginners. Yes it is the easiest for beginners to understand and master, but it's not like you just abandon it for a "better" swing later on. The principles are there for life
@@manbearpig7359 easy pal. This was a video about a brand new beginner golfer, I said it worked well. Didn't say anything about any other level of golfer. Try to be less defensive
@ycombine1053 Easy pal. This was a comment about how the principles of S and T are not just for beginners but can carry us through a lifetime of enjoyable golf. Didn't say anything negative about you. Just slightly disagreed and politely made my point. Try being less defensive.....

Amazing video Tom. I’m a member of your website and your videos have helped me out a ton! This one helps break everything down even more for me. Is there a chance we can get a similar video like this but with the driver?
I appreciate that, James, and I'm very glad to learn of your improvement!! It is essentially the same swing with every club; just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. To demonstrate, you'll find towards the end of this episode some practice range footage of me hitting a 7 iron, 3 wood, and driver: th-cam.com/video/o0xscMyN3v8/w-d-xo.html Here are some recent episodes in which the driver was featured: - th-cam.com/video/PjOCxLWAKW4/w-d-xo.html - th-cam.com/video/kuQ8HysGjP4/w-d-xo.html - th-cam.com/video/OaaafCoY22w/w-d-xo.html Oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the driver it can be attributed to one of the following: 1) They are not setting their weight forward correctly and as a result are tilting their spine towards the target. We should address the ball stacked shoulders over hips over knees with our weight balanced 50/50. We then simply bump our hips one inch towards the target while keeping everything else in place. This presets a little more weight forward while retaining the stacked relationship. 2) Their hips are not continuing their lateral targetward action through impact. This is common with the longer clubs as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel, thereby posing an increased risk of premature spinout. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing - and they should move targetward naturally if we allow them to - then their rotation takes over, thereby stalling the necessary forward weight loading (we should be 80/20 forward halfway down, 90/10 at impact, and 95/5 in the finish), changing the low point and rerouting the club into a steeper angle of attack (AoA). This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices. Of great importance is keeping your upper torso/head in place (in other words, not moving towards the target from a face-on view) during the downswing and through impact. This preserves the swing center and the desired shallow AoA. 3) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The shaft of the driver is considerably longer than the other clubs and thus requires more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as they take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as they maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around them, it should put them in the proper position at the top so they can attack the ball from the inside. (A good feel for that lead shoulder is "down and in, under the chin".) 4) Many believe - and some even teach - that we must try to "hit up on the ball" with the driver. However, consider that in our stock setup with the driver the hands are even with the inside of the lead thigh (as they are with all clubs when playing a standard shot) and our ball position is even with the inside of the heel of the lead foot. This presets a very slight degree of forward shaft lean with the driver. Beyond that, the ball is behind the zero-point of the swing (which is even with the lead shoulder), meaning that without any contrived manipulations the club will still be on its descent - albeit very close to flat - at impact. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants teeing it extra high and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - in general the path is still ever so slightly down. In fact, the PGA Tour average with the driver is actually minus (e.g.: downward) 1.5 degrees - nearly level - and it should feel level - but slightly down nonetheless. (Here is an article on Ping’s website addressing this topic - ping.com/en-us/blogs/proving-grounds/optimal-launch-and-spin#:~:text=According%20to%20Trackman%2C%20PGA%20Tour,85%25%20ball%2Dflight%20laws ) If after this your driver continues to have issues, then keep in mind that I do offer a swing video analysis service which enables me to put my eyes on your swing, diagnose any issues, and provide a corrective action plan if applicable.

Okay...That was awesome Tom. Girl has serious issues but you got her hitting the ball, and golf is so much more fun when you actually hit the ball. She still has a ways to go, but she is hitting the ball! Very impressive Mr. Saguto.
I appreciate that, Mike! Although I am not certain as to what "serious issues" you are referring to. Teagan is a true beginner having only been to the range a few times, and this was her first ever lesson. I think she did an awesome job with the first true fundamental of golf: hitting the ground in the same spot each time. This is stage one of building a ball striking machine, and she's off to a great start! Tom
@@SagutoGolf Yes, okay...Bad choice of words on my part. We all were beginners at some point, and all beginners have a road ahead of them, as we work through are various "issues." I've been playing for more than 30 years, but recently converted to your swing style. Even though I have shot even par a few times, I had turned into a chunking machine and your videos have me working back towards the 70's again - I had serious issues - LOL. Thanks for your videos Tom - I'm heading for my 67th birthday and I really can't practice much because it will aggravate my tennis elbow and my lower back, you know, old age. Your swing is easier on my body and has greatly reduced my chunking, despite getting almost no practice.
LOL!! I'm glad to know that my instruction is performing well for you and helping you through those "serious issues", Mike...😆😆 Seriously - excellent job incorporating it into your swing, and thanks for sharing your improvement! 💪💪 By the way, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that a significant percentage of my online school members are in their 60's, 70's, and 80's - i.e.: a smorgasbord of chronic ailments, physical limitations, back/shoulder/knee/hip pain, arthritis, and joint replacements - and they are overwhelmingly elated to experience the dramatic pain-free game improvement, seemingly effortless power, and resulting enjoyment that this swing affords them. If you've not already joined, have you considered the online school as a 67th birthday gift so you can take your learning - and your game - to the next level? That's where - in addition to detailed lessons and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish - you'll find diagnostic tools for identifying/resolving swing and ball flight issues when they arise, plus advanced level instruction, and much more.

As you are now coming to understand, one does not need the flexibility of a Romanian gymnast - or even of this far less pliable golf instructor - to execute this swing, experience great ball striking, and reclaim - or even exceed - yardages from years past. I hope you'll give the school some thought. Thanks for the follow-up and keep up the great work!! Tom

Hey Y'all! Teagan created an interview featuring SagutoGolf in the news. This lesson was part of the interview! Watch her news feature below: www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/
Thanks John, and yes - I'll see you Wednesday! (And if you'd like to come down to Pawleys this evening, my band is playing at the Pawleys Island Tavern from 6:30 - 9:30. It's a great outdoor scene!) Tom
This is cool af; and I'm ready to leverage this with my spouse. I was surprised to see the grip portion though -- I could swear TS has shared feedback on videos about gripping the club as it comes natural and / or how your hands hang naturally from your side. I'd like to see the 30 or 60 day follow up. Let's see her striping crispy 8 irons and drives.

She did a fabulous job, right?!! By the way, if interested here is the piece Teagan filmed the same day that aired on the local NBC affiliate in advance of their Paris Olympics golf coverage: www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/ Tom
Hi Tom being a right handed golfer when is the right time in the swing to roll my back foot inward. One of your earlier videos you roll your back foot inwards is this at the top of your back swing or when your coming back down to the ball. Steve England 🏴
Hi Steven, The appropriate downswing trigger depends on the tendencies of the individual golfer. The move you are referring to would start at the top as you transition into the downswing and should continue towards impact. While there is certainly content on my channel that addresses this topic, a more structured option would be my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Keys You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ Featuring 17 videos and 45 minutes of detailed lesson and drill content, this is a great way to gain a fundamental understanding of this system as well as an introduction to the formal learning method that has countless thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - now enjoying the best golf of their lives: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews Tom Saguto, PGA
I'm teaching my grand daughter. Her last session she kept missing the ball. I just saw where we were going wrong. I can't wait 8ntil she gets back from Hawaii at the end of the month. 😊
Great! I'm very glad to know that this video documenting Teagan’s lesson resonated with you, and I hope the instructional details contained therein serve your granddaughter's swing well when she puts them into practice!

Tom Saguto, PGA
I loved this video. You probably should do more like these. Also, you were showing her a version of the stack and tilt, how much of a difference is this from the Moe Norman approach?? I've been trying to simplify my swing to that of Moe's...
I'm very glad you enjoyed this video documenting Teagan's first ever lesson, Steven! She did a phenomenal job, right? As for more of these.... Here is an impromptu lesson with 80-something Bill at our club's range: th-cam.com/video/Lb1D2BUrmNU/w-d-xo.html Here is a recent video documenting a lesson with Dave: th-cam.com/video/GC48wThdfeo/w-d-xo.html And here is one with Derek, a young man with PGA Tour aspirations: th-cam.com/video/MbQxyqrPcmM/w-d-xo.html While the Stack and Tilt system I teach shares a one plane feature, it is definitely different from the "single plane" version patterned after Mr. Norman's swing. For example, the straight-line relationship of the arms and club shaft from the DTL view is a trademark of Mr. Norman's setup that one will not typically find in S&T instruction. However, there are also some definite shared features - particularly with regard to the very centered, connected, weight-forward nature of both methods. Stack and Tilt is a complete golf swing system based on data from the best golf ball strikers - and Moe Norman would certainly be included among them. The S&T folks determined from this study of these ball striking legends that they all had 3 things in common (the 3 main golf fundamentals): 1. Hit the ground in the same spot every time (consistent crispy contact) 2. Have enough length to play the golf course well (power) 3. Be able to have a predictable curve (accuracy). A player MUST be able to do those 3 things to be good at golf, and Mr. Norman certainly did!

I sincerely appreciate that, Andy! Feel free to reach out to the folks at The Golf Channel, but I don't think they'd know what to do with me.....😎
Thanks for your message and support!!
Tom
Martin Hall can’t go on forever.
Buy his course you cheapskate.
@@SagutoGolf Well the reason they won't call is The Golf Channel would only need one episode, and everyone will be stripping the ball in crispy delicious fashion.
For those of you not that familiar with the intricacies of Teaching the golf swing, having Played the game for 57+ years, with a +2.8 cap along with a wife that is a Class A Teaching Pro, what Tom did here in approximately 15 minutes with this Newb is something that very very very few of the other YTube golf "gurus," cough..cough, lol, could do!!
They would have 💯+ excuses on why they could not do it with their swing philosophy, methodology, etc.,
As my Teacher of 32+ years would tell his apprentices(my wife), students and anyone within earshot, "The proof is in the divot."
To take her from topping and rolling the ball to contact with a correct divot is something that most mid/high caps NEVER achieve consistently!! EVER!!
Superbly Played Brother👊
Continued Success🍻
RP
RP.... you are far too kind. I sincerely appreciate your very generous words and professional validation. Teagan did a fabulous job in her first ever lesson, and since she came to me as a true beginner with a clean and unbiased slate, there were no bad habits or "ghosts of swings past" to deal with. Instead, we were able to simply and efficiently build the first stage of the "machine". Kudos to her for her ability to grasp and implement on the fly!
Thank you again for your support, and please send my regards to your wife!
Tom
Agreed this is phenomenal. I tried teaching my buddy how to play it and it didn't go nearly this well 😂
@@SagutoGolf What's even better than your golf instructions, you are humble while not being phony and that's a rarity these days.
Tom just taught this girl more in 10 min than the teachers at my local range have taught their students in HOURS of class ... I see the same people struggling every week ... and the same lame advice given to them
I can’t thank you enough for these videos. I commented a few months ago after having an embarrassing game with friends and became determined to learn.
I watched a handful of your videos and went to the range a few times to prep for a golf outting I agreed to go. It was for special needs children.
With your advice I can hit a dead straight shot and get great contact on the ball. I actually managed to golf under 100, I was so proud. The people in my squad were super impressed with me by the end of the day. All i was thinking during the day was your advice. Shoulder to shoulder, make sure club face is facing out and not up. Also don’t worry about the bring back and keep the forward swing below the line. Thanks again Tom, you made a golf fan for life
*OUTSTANDING!!!* I’m very glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play in a pressure situation.

@@SagutoGolf LOL. What’s your definition of middle-aged?
Absolutely love seeing you teach someone who isn’t already good at golf. I’d love to see more!!!
It's not that Teagan isn't "good" at golf, Daniel - she is a true beginner and this was her first ever lesson! And based on these initial results, I think she has tremendous potential to be a solid player!

This was seriously impressive Tom! Taking someone who couldn't even hit the ball to compressing it in 15 minutes is miracle work my man.
I've been a believer for a year now... and your instruction videos applied into 25 rounds this summer has got me down from a 17.5 handicap (where I've been around for 30 years)... down to a 11.2... the way you teach the simplification of the swing and weight mechanics to more easily and consistently create that 'crispy' contact was the game-changer for me... (and right elbow in lol)... thank you for the good work you do.
I'm pleased to know that you enjoyed it, and yes - Teagan did a fabulous job, right??

Tom, you are absolutely the BEST golf instructor I've encountered in person or on TH-cam. You're so good at explaining the whys and hows of the golf swing without making it complicated or boring. To top it all off, you point out that it really boils down to a relatively few basic moves to hit the ball KFC style. I'm still smashing high, straight shots thanks to the same advice that you are giving in this video. I've seen plenty golf instructors on the driving range - compared to you, they are a big waste of time and money.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction content and teaching style are resonating with you and providing clarity and simplicity in the muddied, overly complicated, oft-conflicting realm of golf instruction!!

First swing took a divot, and in the right spot! Amazing! I’ve been watching Tom for over a year and I still learned something from this video that I need to correct. Great video.
Also like going back to the drawing board. We all make a bad shot and need to reset.
Yes! Teagan did an awesome job, right??
I'm very glad to know that this video documenting her lesson resonated with you, and I hope the instructional details contained therein serve your swing well when you put them into practice!

I’m a believer! Ever since I have used Tom’s direction, my game has improved immensely! Shot a 85 today with 2 7’s on the back 9 and it was my bad decisions that cased me from not breaking 80. This works! Thanks Tom. Now to fine tune my short game and 70’s here I come!
Great stuff, Tom!!
Thanks for the progress update, keep up the awesome work, and I know we're going to see you very soon in the 70's!!

This is what makes Tom the best golf instructor on TH-cam, if not the world. He can take a beginner golfer and in 15 short minutes have her hitting crispy, consistent, jaw-dropping shots.

Teagan did an awesome job! Hard to believe she is a true beginner and that this was her first lesson - with the added pressure of the local news station camera rolling to boot!!

Been playing for 30+ years. I implemented this entire setup today at the range. I was also told to always hold the club just tight enough to not lose it. I gripped it and ripped it. I’ve never hit the ball so flush in my life. Nuked 80% of my shots. It seems my main issue with the lead arm was bending a lot more than I thought during the backswing. Love the channel.
Outstanding, Robby! I’m very glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play.

Loved it. Next the Driver then the wedge game.
Teagan is definitely showing tremendous promise, Alan, especially for a true beginner!!
Tom
Your lessons are truly great!!! Your technical details.... Simple, effective and not much talks. One suggestion, when hitting the ball should the focus is to hit the ball behind, middle or front? Also, please show slow motions when hitting the ball.
Thank you so much!!!! Love your TH-cam Lesson.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Ramon, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction content and teaching style are resonating with you!!
I personally just look at the top of the ball as I find that helps me to keep my head in place throughout the motion - a very important swing key for consistency. That's me. Some have success focusing on a particular quadrant of the ball or even a specific dimple. Still others do well with concentrating on a spot in front of the ball or even the back of the ball. You have to figure out what works best for you and your tendencies.
I slow down my swing in numerous videos, but even when I don't you can still manually adjust the playback of any YT video to as slow as 1/4-speed by clicking on the settings button at the lower right side of the video player. Or you can pause a video and press the period ( . ) button to advance frame by frame and the comma ( , ) to reverse frame by frame.

@@SagutoGolf All is well Tom. Moved from golf central in The Villages of Florida and came back to Georgia. Came out of retirement, again😀.
I still watch your videos and still a member of your online school where I watch the development of several guys.
I still can’t believe that at 67 years old, I hit the golf ball better than I ever have, and I thank you.
Your videos have helped me in the past and this one did too. Maybe I’m just a slow learner but it seems like I understand a concept but it takes a while for it to click. I knew to keep the weight on my lead leg but today I saw how her trail leg was slightly angled. I imitated it at the range today and wow, a small change and huge results.

Tom a totally awesome golf lesson. I can vouch for your knowledge as I have been using your swing.
I am 77 and still play off the blue tees. I tied my best game ever with a score of 75 over the 6600 yard on a champion golf course here in Brazil. Your swing is a very simple one and easy to learn and generates a lot of power.
I agree with other comments here in that you should have a regular half hour show on TV or here on TH-cam.
It would certainly help young and old golfers to play better and with a lot of fun
.Many thanks Tom.

I’ve only been playing a few months and was so inconsistent where the club bottomed out at I searched TH-cam and found you watched tons of old videos and new and took the mini course in the last two weeks I’ve only played once and saw a small improvement but I’m feeling more confident with the swing now can’t want to play again next week and see the progress I believe in the swing now it’s up to me to execute it
I’m very glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you, and I appreciate your commitment to improving!
Thanks so much for sharing your progress and keep up the great work!! 💪💪

@@SagutoGolf Teagan did a great job sharing your passion and knowledge. I just love all your analogies. I have been implementing your techniques. And my ball striking has really improved. Especially my utility's and woods. My driver goes higher, almost too high. I'd prefer more distance. I learned so much from watching how you instructed Teagan. I need to watch more of your videos. Do you have any on putting?
On a more personal note, I think you and Teagan should get to know each other better. You never know, you seemed to have some chemistry. 😍🤩😍
Best to you both! Thanks for sharing your passion with the rest of the world. 🤩
I am going to try this tomorrow. Have tried many methods but I want to do this. Thanks for taking a novice and helping them hit it right. Good way to learn.

Hi Tom so glad I returned to your channel! My game kept going up and down with no consistency! Came across your channel again a day or two ago I seem to understand it better this time. Went this morning first time out and shot 79. Should have been better but messed up a couple chips. I’m back to stay! Thx 😊
OUTSTANDING!! I saw your previous message. Glad to have you back onboard - for good 😎 - and thanks for sharing today's success.
Keep up the great work and keep it crispy out there!! 💪💪
Tom
Wow. Tom's teaching ability and simple approach are true talents. He did in 15 minutes what most pros couldn't do in a year's worth of lessons. I wish I could go back and unlearn all of my bad habits and be taught correctly as a true newbie by Mr. Krispy KFC!
Thankful I found Tom's channel and joined the KFC club. I am already on my way to better golf. My home is in Greenville, SC. I will definitely have to visit you, Tom, in person. Maybe a 2-day golf camp?
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Rob, and I'm very glad to know that my lesson content and teaching style are resonating with you and providing clarity and simplicity in the muddied, overly complicated, oft-conflicting realm of golf instruction!
You can find lesson information here: saguto.golf/lessons
Also, please sign up for my email list at go.saguto.golf/ as that is how I will be communicating updates on lesson options and availability as I move toward resuming one-on-one instruction. (I have been on a hiatus from in-person lessons in order to reappropriate my time to online school upgrades and enhancements.)

Wow, after this video and a range session today, I understood, what I was doing wrong.
I followed your videos for some months now and my shots got really better and straighter and I can hit a draw now as a slicer which is amazing.
BUT
I couldn’t get that zip, you are describing in your videos. Today finally I watched my swing in the mirror and it made click. I unconsciously move my wrist in the backswing and I swing to high, which leads to a crossing the line swing. I finally understood, what you are meaning with no wrist movement and the arms connecting to the body.
After that I tried to do a low swing with a good body turn and there was it. The Ziiiipppp!!! Haha.
I did a video of my swing and for the first time in my life I saw swing that finally did not look like an over the top swing and the backswing looked automatically more like what some pros are doing. And this even without thinking to drop the arms and such, what I was used to do as a slicer. My only thought was to have weight on my front leg!
Thank you very much man. I started golf at the age of 9 and am 30 now with some break of 12 Years. But for my whole golfing life I thought that people who manage to play draws are some magicians and I got frustrated more and more, that I just couldn’t come from the inside.
Thank you very much for your different approach, which worked for me! :-)
OUTSTANDING!! Welcome to the "magical" world of the draw!!
I’m very glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play. Thanks so much for sharing your dramatic ball striking improvement, keep up the great work, and keep on Ziiiipppping it!! 💪💪

Stack and tilt for beginners really is a match made in heaven in my opinion. Your first goal when starting out is just getting some good contact. Mission accomplished.
Indeed. Teagan did an excellent job, right?!
And with regard to Stack and Tilt, here's the thing: S&T is a robust _SYSTEM_ for swinging the golf club and not a specific swing unto itself. The system is rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology, and it is modeled on empirical observations of the game's greatest ball strikers. As such it does not discriminate by age or ability - from kids to seniors and everyone in between, and from true beginners like Teagan to the best players in the world. Watch any Tour event on TV and you'll see a significant number of players executing the trademark motions of the S&T system, a fact corroborated by just how many of them have a very centered swing with the lead knee flexing and the trail leg straightening during the backswing, their lead arms on or very close to their tilted shoulder planes, and their hands deep behind their trail shoulders at the top.
Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your support!
Tom Saguto, PGA
I agree fully!!
S and T is NOT just for beginners. Yes it is the easiest for beginners to understand and master, but it's not like you just abandon it for a "better" swing later on. The principles are there for life
@@manbearpig7359 easy pal. This was a video about a brand new beginner golfer, I said it worked well. Didn't say anything about any other level of golfer. Try to be less defensive
@ycombine1053 Easy pal. This was a comment about how the principles of S and T are not just for beginners but can carry us through a lifetime of enjoyable golf. Didn't say anything negative about you. Just slightly disagreed and politely made my point. Try being less defensive.....

Amazing video Tom. I’m a member of your website and your videos have helped me out a ton! This one helps break everything down even more for me. Is there a chance we can get a similar video like this but with the driver?
I appreciate that, James, and I'm very glad to learn of your improvement!!
It is essentially the same swing with every club; just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. To demonstrate, you'll find towards the end of this episode some practice range footage of me hitting a 7 iron, 3 wood, and driver: th-cam.com/video/o0xscMyN3v8/w-d-xo.html
Here are some recent episodes in which the driver was featured:
- th-cam.com/video/PjOCxLWAKW4/w-d-xo.html
- th-cam.com/video/kuQ8HysGjP4/w-d-xo.html
- th-cam.com/video/OaaafCoY22w/w-d-xo.html
Oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the driver it can be attributed to one of the following:
1) They are not setting their weight forward correctly and as a result are tilting their spine towards the target. We should address the ball stacked shoulders over hips over knees with our weight balanced 50/50. We then simply bump our hips one inch towards the target while keeping everything else in place. This presets a little more weight forward while retaining the stacked relationship.
2) Their hips are not continuing their lateral targetward action through impact. This is common with the longer clubs as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel, thereby posing an increased risk of premature spinout. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing - and they should move targetward naturally if we allow them to - then their rotation takes over, thereby stalling the necessary forward weight loading (we should be 80/20 forward halfway down, 90/10 at impact, and 95/5 in the finish), changing the low point and rerouting the club into a steeper angle of attack (AoA). This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices.
Of great importance is keeping your upper torso/head in place (in other words, not moving towards the target from a face-on view) during the downswing and through impact. This preserves the swing center and the desired shallow AoA.
3) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The shaft of the driver is considerably longer than the other clubs and thus requires more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as they take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as they maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around them, it should put them in the proper position at the top so they can attack the ball from the inside. (A good feel for that lead shoulder is "down and in, under the chin".)
4) Many believe - and some even teach - that we must try to "hit up on the ball" with the driver. However, consider that in our stock setup with the driver the hands are even with the inside of the lead thigh (as they are with all clubs when playing a standard shot) and our ball position is even with the inside of the heel of the lead foot. This presets a very slight degree of forward shaft lean with the driver. Beyond that, the ball is behind the zero-point of the swing (which is even with the lead shoulder), meaning that without any contrived manipulations the club will still be on its descent - albeit very close to flat - at impact. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants teeing it extra high and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - in general the path is still ever so slightly down. In fact, the PGA Tour average with the driver is actually minus (e.g.: downward) 1.5 degrees - nearly level - and it should feel level - but slightly down nonetheless. (Here is an article on Ping’s website addressing this topic - ping.com/en-us/blogs/proving-grounds/optimal-launch-and-spin#:~:text=According%20to%20Trackman%2C%20PGA%20Tour,85%25%20ball%2Dflight%20laws )
If after this your driver continues to have issues, then keep in mind that I do offer a swing video analysis service which enables me to put my eyes on your swing, diagnose any issues, and provide a corrective action plan if applicable. Here is a link where you can learn more about this option: saguto.golf/lessons

Thanks Robert! Teagan did a fantastic job, right?

Okay...That was awesome Tom. Girl has serious issues but you got her hitting the ball, and golf is so much more fun when you actually hit the ball. She still has a ways to go, but she is hitting the ball!
Very impressive Mr. Saguto.
I appreciate that, Mike! Although I am not certain as to what "serious issues" you are referring to. Teagan is a true beginner having only been to the range a few times, and this was her first ever lesson. I think she did an awesome job with the first true fundamental of golf: hitting the ground in the same spot each time. This is stage one of building a ball striking machine, and she's off to a great start!
Tom
@@SagutoGolf Yes, okay...Bad choice of words on my part. We all were beginners at some point, and all beginners have a road ahead of them, as we work through are various "issues."
I've been playing for more than 30 years, but recently converted to your swing style. Even though I have shot even par a few times, I had turned into a chunking machine and your videos have me working back towards the 70's again - I had serious issues - LOL.
Thanks for your videos Tom - I'm heading for my 67th birthday and I really can't practice much because it will aggravate my tennis elbow and my lower back, you know, old age. Your swing is easier on my body and has greatly reduced my chunking, despite getting almost no practice.
LOL!! I'm glad to know that my instruction is performing well for you and helping you through those "serious issues", Mike...😆😆
Seriously - excellent job incorporating it into your swing, and thanks for sharing your improvement! 💪💪
By the way, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that a significant percentage of my online school members are in their 60's, 70's, and 80's - i.e.: a smorgasbord of chronic ailments, physical limitations, back/shoulder/knee/hip pain, arthritis, and joint replacements - and they are overwhelmingly elated to experience the dramatic pain-free game improvement, seemingly effortless power, and resulting enjoyment that this swing affords them.
If you've not already joined, have you considered the online school as a 67th birthday gift so you can take your learning - and your game - to the next level? That's where - in addition to detailed lessons and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish - you'll find diagnostic tools for identifying/resolving swing and ball flight issues when they arise, plus advanced level instruction, and much more. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result, and their unsolicited testimonials tell the story quite well: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. The value in terms of what you get for the low price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet.
And if you'd like to first "dip a toe in the water" prior to diving into the school, then here is a link to my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Keys You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ Featuring 17 videos and 45 minutes of detailed lesson and drill content, this is a great way to gain a fundamental understanding of this system as well as an introduction to the formal learning method that is delivering the referenced results.
As you are now coming to understand, one does not need the flexibility of a Romanian gymnast - or even of this far less pliable golf instructor - to execute this swing, experience great ball striking, and reclaim - or even exceed - yardages from years past. I hope you'll give the school some thought.
Thanks for the follow-up and keep up the great work!!

Well done Tom.

Great video Tom! This must have been tough on her, knowing it’ll be on TH-cam. What a trouper. Only problem I can see (not me of course, we have many low handicap women at our course) is that she will eventually be out hitting and performing other golfers. All the best Teagan!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Don! And Teagan gets it as she is a TV journalist/reporter and also a content creator. In fact, here is the piece she did for our local NBC affiliate that same day: www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/
Considering that she is a true beginner and that was her first ever lesson, Teagan sure does have a lot of promise if she ever decides to take up this game as a regular hobby. What a fantastic job she did!
Thanks,
Tom
@@SagutoGolfWhat a great clip, thank you sharing. Some people were born to present, teach, coach. You are one of them!
I certainly hope this catches the powers to be and elevate you into the top golf teaching pros in North America and beyond.
Excellent lesson!!!

I watched your videos on the way to the golf course today.
I played with my Son, and actually hit the ball better!
I told my Son that I would send you what I said
“Saguto Baby❤️❤️!
LOL! That's awesome!!

Hey Y'all! Teagan created an interview featuring SagutoGolf in the news. This lesson was part of the interview! Watch her news feature below:
www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/
You did it again, another home run!!! See you at the 19th hole Wednesday evening.
Thanks John, and yes - I'll see you Wednesday!
(And if you'd like to come down to Pawleys this evening, my band is playing at the Pawleys Island Tavern from 6:30 - 9:30. It's a great outdoor scene!)

@@SagutoGolf I’ll have to check with the wife and see if she is up for it. Thanks.
First swing hitting the ball was awesome!
I know, right?? Teagan did a fabulous job in her first ever lesson as a true beginner!!
Tom
This is cool af; and I'm ready to leverage this with my spouse. I was surprised to see the grip portion though -- I could swear TS has shared feedback on videos about gripping the club as it comes natural and / or how your hands hang naturally from your side. I'd like to see the 30 or 60 day follow up. Let's see her striping crispy 8 irons and drives.
I'm very glad to know that this video documenting Teagan’s lesson resonated with you, and I hope the instructional details contained therein serve your wife's swing well when she puts them into practice!
Teagan is quite busy with her journalism work - in fact, here is the piece she filmed the same day that aired on the local NBC affiliate in advance of their Paris Olympics golf coverage: www.wmbfnews.com/2024/08/01/pawleys-island-golfer-takes-youtube-teach-others-his-tips-tricks-game/ - so we did not assign a specific timeframe to do a follow-up to monitor her progress. That will be up to her. However, based on the results of this lesson I would expect great things from Teagan when she is ready to put some work into her game!
Thanks,
Tom Saguto, PGA

Hi Tom being a right handed golfer when is the right time in the swing to roll my back foot inward. One of your earlier videos you roll your back foot inwards is this at the top of your back swing or when your coming back down to the ball. Steve England 🏴
Hi Steven,
The appropriate downswing trigger depends on the tendencies of the individual golfer. The move you are referring to would start at the top as you transition into the downswing and should continue towards impact.
While there is certainly content on my channel that addresses this topic, a more structured option would be my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Keys You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ Featuring 17 videos and 45 minutes of detailed lesson and drill content, this is a great way to gain a fundamental understanding of this system as well as an introduction to the formal learning method that has countless thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - now enjoying the best golf of their lives: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews

I loved this video. You probably should do more like these. Also, you were showing her a version of the stack and tilt, how much of a difference is this from the Moe Norman approach?? I've been trying to simplify my swing to that of Moe's...
I'm very glad you enjoyed this video documenting Teagan's first ever lesson, Steven! She did a phenomenal job, right?
As for more of these....
Here is an impromptu lesson with 80-something Bill at our club's range: th-cam.com/video/Lb1D2BUrmNU/w-d-xo.html
Here is a recent video documenting a lesson with Dave: th-cam.com/video/GC48wThdfeo/w-d-xo.html
And here is one with Derek, a young man with PGA Tour aspirations: th-cam.com/video/MbQxyqrPcmM/w-d-xo.html
While the Stack and Tilt system I teach shares a one plane feature, it is definitely different from the "single plane" version patterned after Mr. Norman's swing. For example, the straight-line relationship of the arms and club shaft from the DTL view is a trademark of Mr. Norman's setup that one will not typically find in S&T instruction. However, there are also some definite shared features - particularly with regard to the very centered, connected, weight-forward nature of both methods.
Stack and Tilt is a complete golf swing system based on data from the best golf ball strikers - and Moe Norman would certainly be included among them. The S&T folks determined from this study of these ball striking legends that they all had 3 things in common (the 3 main golf fundamentals): 1. Hit the ground in the same spot every time (consistent crispy contact) 2. Have enough length to play the golf course well (power) 3. Be able to have a predictable curve (accuracy). A player MUST be able to do those 3 things to be good at golf, and Mr. Norman certainly did!
