      Appreciate Video! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (probably on Google)? It is a good one off guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique minus the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my best friend Jordan after many years got great success with it.

    Clay, you are one of the best golf instructors on TH-cam. I played golf on and off for many years without noticeable improvement until I found your channel. After watching your instructions, I can hit irons really solid using the techniques you taught. I am currently working on driver swing. Now I only watch your channel exclusively.

    @kenbarber7955 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Thank you Clay... I had stopped playing golf 6 years ago due to a shoulder injury. Shoulder is now back to normal and I am hitting solid straight drives and irons. You are by far the best golf instructor on TH-cam since you demonstrate and explain in a way that is so easy to understand. My average drive is now around 280yds which isn't bad for a 67 year old retired golf course superintendent! Thanks a million..... Ken U.K

I kinda went on the spur of the moment last trip, so next round I def would benefit from the driving range FIRST:)

    So I used to golf as much as I could a long time ago. But thanks to my injuries and TBI, from the military I kind of stopped. I got tired of the balls ending up on other's fairways, but ever since watching your videos, WOW. I started up again a few months back, and something about how you instruct, keep it simple, and your examples really has me motivated. So much so that I aim playing better than I have ever been, to the point where I want to try my luck with the VGA. I want to fly over and take some one-on-one lessons with you, before I attempt the VGA, but being medically retired doesn't pay much lol. Saving my money for the flight and the lessons. Thank you for posting what you post. It has helped so much.

    Thank you for the lessons Clay. My friends keep telling me I'm hitting my irons fat and thin because I'm dropping my right shoulder on my downswing. I like your explanation much better. I think I'm dropping my shoulder because I'm not transferring my weight properly. My swing has also caused great pain in my middle and lower back. Again, I'm guessing it's caused by me not transferring my weight to my left side. I'm going to the range tomorrow and trying everything you mention in your first three videos. You explained lag like I've never heard before. Thanks again!

      Wish I was in the next bay. I love helping people improve their swing. We all know the basics and mechanics. i say find your rhythm and the swing for your frame and build. If you've played any other sports keep drawing on basic principals from that or anything else you are more proficient at. i come Back to Clay and his content to.make sure I've got good basics and don't break any cardinal rules.
      The beauty of golf is you are challenging yourself and the more I learn about it the more I realize seemingly unrelated disciplines actually help golf. Many baseball players struggle in golf for such and such reasons. i was serious tennis player. Clay's golf.lessons made.so.much.more sense when I found out he has tennis instructions too. i actually was really mad I didnt have this 30 yrs ago for my tennis. I thought my background in other things such.as.boxing and tennis damaged my golf game. Im.no.coach or.expert but keep striving for a beautiful and natural.swing

    They say a "Picture paints a thousand words"! Your teaching method is fantastic, showing while explaining, some of these videos are all verbal instruction without any practical content. Thank you

    The release part has always been the hardest for me. I forget to roll my hands over, and next thing you know I'm in the fairway, on the next hole...Thanks so much for this video! Will try all of these tips today in my league.

    I've actually realized that I can reach 119-122 mph with a full/hard swing and on average ,113-116 with a " weightless half swing" and they are more controlled

      Hi Larry
      I hope you're not shanking it with the driver! It does take time but you'll get there. Best of luck! ~Robin. Top Speed Golf.

    Clay's advice is always good stuff. Interesting that a Titliest pro is hitting a TaylorMade M-type driver........smart.

    • @TopSpeedGolf
      @TopSpeedGolf  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Bruce, Clay actually isn't a Titliest pro. We don't currently have any deals with club manufacturers. Play well! Quentin | TSG Instructor

      @TopSpeedGolf  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Play well! As long as you put in the work, you will do great. If you don't do as well as you hoped. Just keep practicing. Good things will always come if you put in the reps. You can do it!!

    I feel like I’m swing the driver hard but the launch monitor tells me it’s only 95-100. That’s not fun because I’m a mid 20s guy but I’m only swinging as fast as the ladies.

    • @TopSpeedGolf
      @TopSpeedGolf  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, I would make sure that you're getting a full shoulder turn. That's the biggest key to it. Play well! Quentin | TSG Instructor
