Hi Tom, please make another webinar for us Europeans. At 1.30am it´s hard to follow :-) And if you are wondering how far your channel reaches: I am from Austria, and no, we don´t have Kangaroos.
Thank you for three of the best tips I ever got from a TH-cam instructor: move the ball to the middle of my stance, bump my hips toward the target during the backswing, and swing with the shoulders rather than swing with the arms. I got all of those ideas from you and when I make sure my right elbow goes toward my liver, I'm good. Your free, TH-cam instruction is better than what I got at Martin Chuck's $2000 camp and from local instructors who charged me $100/hour. You got the mojo, bro.
@@LostHisSoninIraq he does, you just record some of your swings and send them to him. He will analyze it and tell you you what you're doing wrong and how to fix it I believe. I'm thinking of doing lessons in a few weeks when the outdoor ranges open up in my city.
Today I hit 9/12 fairways, 9/18 greens, 4 more were within 5 yards of the green. Shot an 81! Started watching Tom Saguto less than 2 months ago! Been a high 80s low 90s guy all my life. Golf is really fun right now!!
I'm most grateful for your kind words pertaining to the online school, Jay, as well as your validating remarks regarding my instruction style. Thanks so much for your message and support!! Tom
Because people are frightened it might mess up their bad swing. After a year off because of hand surgery . I have changed completely to the Saguto swing and just after 4 rounds are smoking my drives sweeping fairway woods. Hitting greens in regulation chipping consistantly. Most of all enjoying my golf. It's been good for me to have a year off letting my bad habits be forgotten moving into the new swing the Saguto swing just gets better with Tom's diagnostics I am no longer agnostic.
My favorite TH-camr. Tom has perfected the instructional video. Personal, funny as hell, skilled, unconventional, and he's speaking to normal golfers. So many videos are for young athletic players and people of already high skill. This channel is what REAL golf needs.
if u inherently athletic then you can get more out of this swing. Even then more athletic people can add way more power with a simple swing. Most great batters and golfers have simple swings like this. what makes it special is their athleticism
Saguto, you are the best golf TH-camr that I have ever seen. You are funny, highly intelligent and you speak in plain English and you use examples that anyone can understand. Keep up the outstanding, funny and much needed work.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I am very glad to know that you are benefiting from my instruction content and enjoying my teaching style!! Thanks again for your support and have fun out there!! Tom
I use to teach and the best way was to put out the questions, all sit around the teacher and debate how to get to the answer. Once everyone agrees to the right solution and how to get to the right answer. Then we all have won.
This is the best driver video on the internet. No exaggeration. On top of it being super informative it's hilarious. Great job, Tom and thanks for the help.
Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm very glad to know that this driver lesson resonated with you, and I hope it performs well when you put it into play! Tom PS: Since you're liking my channel's content, I thought you might enjoy my FREE mini-course - “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” - where you can learn some key aspects of the swing system I teach in a more structured manner. Here's a link in case you’re interested in checking it out: go.saguto.golf/
I am 85 yrs old with a 25 handicap. My driving distance has improved by 20to 30 yards. I measured the distance yesterday at 204yds - unbelievable for me. My 3 wood was 174yds, again unbelievable. You have a wacky presentation method but it certainly works. I'm just about to sign up for your chipping and pitching course. Thank you so much for your help in improving my game enormously. My golfing buddies can't believe it.
I've been out of golf for about a year due to a torn rotater cuff and a back injury, not related to golf. Getting started back at 60 over injuries if very hard and depressing by yourself. Saguto videos have always motivated me very quickly., such as this awesome video. I've taken the Saguto online class. It's the best. After a year, it took me only 7 holes to start crushing my drives again doing exactly what I learned in the Saguto online school. I truly have enjoyed all of his videos while applying them. The best and most detailed golf school.
That's awesome!! 💪💪 I'm thrilled to learn of your rekindled love for this greatest of games, and I sincerely appreciate your kind words regarding the online school and this body-friendly, consistent, powerful swing system for all ages!! Thanks so much for your support and keep up the fantastic work!! Tom
Learning the proper way to keep the proper weight on the lead side during the entire swing has given me much, much more consistency and distance. The set you taught in the course is a game changer. Swinging every club the same way, except the driver, I use the tilt away from the target has resulted in many crispy drives, in which I had the same amount of weight on the lead foot then to. I watch one of your online videos the night before I go play every time and it's is coming together surprisingly well. Thank you. I love it!
I’ve been watching Golf videos for years... Training myself, Taking tips and advice, Working hard mentally and physically on my game. Saguto golf is God sent for me. I’ve shared these videos with my two sons Who both love golf 🏌️ Solute to you Tom!
Tom, I watched and rewatch your video on "the swing' with a driver. Although I am still learning, I hit a 240 drive on Tuesday....and then 200+ drives throughout the 18 holes....it really, really, really works! My golf buddies were stunned....I am 70 and you are right! Hit the ball "To the Moon and Back"!!!!
Hi Saguto Golfers! I've been out of golf action for a few months due to a work-related back injury. Have to confess that I'm not the best of patients, so I've deliberately stayed away from golf whilst nursing my injury. Anyway, finally got back into it 2 weeks ago and did OK. Having rediscovered my golf mojo, I've now reacquainted myself with the Sir Thomas Saguto golf school here on TH-cam. A few refresher videos later, I'm once again stacking over the ball - 55% loaded on the front foot, rotating my body around the ball, dropping the left shoulder under my chin and twatting the ball with "the wrath of god". Slowly but surely im seeing my scores getting lower and my confidence levels rise as my consistency levels push up higher on the Saguto KFC crispy scale. Keep on producing the uber-ace video's Tom, you're a breath of fresh air in an otherwise largely stale world of golf TH-camr's👌👌👌
Hi Tom - love your videos no technical terms just plain simple advice.I`m 75 now and just wish someone like you had been around 50years ago teaching like this.Keep up the great work.
I am thrilled to have found you on utube. I’ve had hundreds of lessons from various pros with marginal improvement. But I have made a giant step forward following your posts. On the practice range I am putting a sliced in half tennis ball under the left foot to keep reminding me to put the weight on that foot. Magic! Thanks so much
Another great video for beginners like me to help us improve our game, I still can't hit my driver consistently or highly, but hey, I'm now making consistent contact! Key takeaways: Setup: The driver setup should feel the same as any other club, with the ball positioned the same relative to your front foot. The stance widens with longer clubs, but the front foot remains consistent. Weight Distribution: Shift 60% of your weight forward to load up power on your front side, helping you naturally push off for better launch. Sweet Spot: Tee the ball so half of it is above the clubface to hit the sweet spot, maximizing power and distance. Backswing & Downswing: Keep your shoulders turning 90 degrees to your spine, and remember to take the club around your body to avoid steep, inconsistent strikes. Fixing Common Issues: For steep swings and slices, Tom recommends using an alignment stick drill to help you keep your swing on the right path.
Nice summary, Ray! A couple of points of clarification: - While this system affords you some leeway, in general once my students and members show some level of proficiency with the swing I suggest that they migrate to a stock ball position that is in the middle of the stance for short irons, two balls inside the lead heel for middle irons, and creeping more forward for the longer clubs - the farthest forward being even with the inside of the lead heel for the driver (with the stance width increasing as we move from shorter to longer clubs). From there they can make incremental tweaks to see how different positions affect impact quality and shot shape. (By the way, I strongly suggest using alignment sticks when monitoring ball position - one on the foot line, a second one parallel to the first to mark the target line, and a third perpendicular to these to show ball position - as our side-on view from above tends to skew our perspective of the actual location of the ball relative to our stance.) As for hand position, it remains consistent - even with the inside of your lead thigh - no matter which club you are hitting. Additionally, the lead arm and club shaft should form a straight line from the face-on view, giving your setup a lowercase "y" look. - With regard to the setup - and this applies to every club - we 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. As I may have shared in a previous reply, if you'd really like to get on the fast track towards properly learning this swing system in a comprehensive, sequential platform, please consider my online school. It will make for a far more efficient, superior, and enjoyable learning process rather than haphazardly trying to piece things together through these channel videos that jump around randomly from topic to topic. The school is where you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish, along with diagnostic and corrective tools for resolving common swing, contact, and ball flight issues, 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. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that 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. Thanks for your message and keep up the great work!! Tom

Still in awe of how good these videos are. As I mentioned on another one of your posts, I'm just starting golf again after a 30 year absence, and the game has changed a lot since I last swung a club. Your videos have been invaluable in getting me back up to speed. I've still got a long way to go, but I'm getting there with content like this! I'm looking into getting a subscription to your web site, too.
One of the best driver lessons I’ve ever seen!!! I’ve always been hesitant to load the front leg. Always thought I had to have weight on back foot. Thanks Saguto!!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Keith!! Sadly, many misconstrued and/or misguided teachings of "conventional" instruction - such as turning the shoulders level while independently lifting the club, shifting into and torquing against a firm trail side, actively rolling the hands through impact, etc. - have relegated generations of golfers to the vast abyss of chronic frustration (and chronic back/knee/hip pain as well). We're doing our best here to clear these up one by one and put an end to this madness! TS
I’m currently enrolled in Tom’s online course. It has helped my game tremendously but my driving is still terrible. I took this lesson to the driving range over the past few days. Not sure what 60% feels like on my lead leg but I stacked a lot of weight on it, took my backswing, and ripped it dead straight. Then I did it again, and again, and again. As far as the push up from the lead leg during follow through, I felt that I had to initiate this as it didn’t seem to come as naturally as Tom suggests. Who cares? I was hitting the ball at least 250 and straight.
I have been following Tom for a few months now trying all of the free stuff I could get. I came across his video on keeping the left arm straight and putting your weight on the lead side and it transformed my swing. After watching YT videos for years and trying so many techniques I was still skeptical, but after about three months of practice, mainly with irons, there is no doubt - it is the real deal. Now it might not be for everyone, but for me it was THE game changer I was looking for. Time for me to commit and join up. I want it all now.
Just a regular hacker here that's taken many lessons over the last twenty-something years that loves the game but struggles with inconsistency-no longer. I purchased the online course and the money was well spent!!! Saguta explains it in detail with specific drills to develop a consistent swing. The results are lower scores and I'm no longer overthinking over the ball. The improvement is an instance so I no longer feel lost even during those lapses of concentration we all are prone to on the course. FYI, I don't get paid for this advertisement. Thank you Saguto!!
Thank you for your kind words and your (unpaid 😆) testimonial for the online school, Alex!! I'm very glad to know that you are benefiting from the instruction and enjoying this great game more as a result; that is ultimately what this is all about. I did my best to price the school at a "no-brainer" level given the quality and effectiveness of the delivered product, and I sincerely appreciate you recognizing that and taking the time to "shout it from the rooftop"!! Thanks again, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!! Tom
@@SagutoGolf It's easy to promote a quality product that I've gained the benefits of in such a short time. I'm working slowly to absorb all the fundamentals and absolve myself from the myriad of past habits. Once I've completed it to my "Swing DNA," then I'll reach out to you for the next step. Thanks again for all the quality content and for keeping it simple.
I'm very glad to learn of your improvement, Nickolas!! Unfortunately, such sorcery from this dark underworld of golf instruction rarely finds its way to the mainstream because if too many folks found out about it the mainstream would then be rendered irrelevant. 😎 The way I see it, we can either simply put the already existing natural laws to work for us, or we can twist, morph, torque, contrive, and otherwise mess with the principles of physics and geometry in an effort to better suit some ill-conceived whims, all the while recognizing that at the point of impact those pre-existing laws are going to be the only things that matter to the ball. Thanks for your kind words and keep up the great work!! Tom
Love it Tom plus you want all of us golfers to hit it better at no cost to us normal working class people what an unselfish man You also have a great sense of humor even for a Norwegian like myself Thank you🎉
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Ernie, and I am very glad to know that my instruction content and "lesson and a show" teaching style are resonating with you!!

Good job Tom. The most important thing I got out of this for me was it made me aware that I was dropping my left side down on the back swing to get my left shoulder down. I am sure I did not do that in my younger days. I enjoyed your presentation, keep up the good work you make the game fun again.
Been using all these tips on the range and on the course. It's so simple and easy, the last 4 rounds shot 75,77,78&76 all thanks to you has made the game more enjoyable now🙂
I can't stress enough how Tom makes me excited about getting out to the range to practice. His simple breakdown makes me believe I can do it. And... it works. I'm hitting it so much better. There are still years of bad habits to work through so I have to take it slowly but I think I'm starting to remake my ineffective, inconsistent swing. Many thanks.
Thanks again for your kind words, Whitney! What I teach is a complete golf swing system, not a series of tips, band-aids, and fixes for field dressing swing wounds. As such, the transformation takes time as we work to gradually eradicate those stubborn ghosts of swings past. It's a very worthwhile process, though, as it ultimately leads us to the land of consistent ball striking bliss. That is also why the sequential, comprehensive, structured learning platform of the school is far superior to trying to haphazardly piece things together through a series of YT videos. Keep up the great work!! Tom
At 7:39 you had me dying over here lol. I’m learning and laughing (L&L) at the same time. You are the king of L&L lol I’m so glad I came across your channel. I’m a life time subscriber now. I’m a lifer!
😆😆😆 If you're looking for a "lesson and a show", then you've come to the right place, Jason! Just know that despite the entertainment aspect, everything taught here from a golf swing perspective is consistent with a swing system rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology, and modeled on empirical observations of the game's greatest ball strikers. So have a chuckle or two, and then get to work! 😎 Thanks so much for your subscription and support - I'm thrilled to have you onboard!!

You know, I have seen Tom's vids come up in my feed or whatever YT calls it. I finally clicked on one, now have been binging LOL. He should do standup while still teaching us this swing!
Tom, tried this out over the weekend. i was hooking a bit, but flushed several drives 270 metres! I'm nearly 50! My mates weak slice was going 180 max. He wasn't happy...
That's what I like to hear! Feels good huh?! Keep at it, it only gets better when you smooth it out a bit and really pick out the small details in the videos.
That's *AWESOME,* Margarito!! I am thrilled for your dramatic improvement, and I sincerely appreciate your kind words regarding my instruction content and teaching style!! Thanks for for your support in sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!! Tom
Thank you Tom for your response in regard to keeping your head still. Your teaching is EXCELLENT! My game has absolutely improved with your techniques.
My pleasure! And thanks so much for your kind words regarding my instruction; I'm thrilled for your improvement and I appreciate your sharing that. Keep up the great work!! Tom
So much more clear than all these big time golf TH-camrs. They get into all this complicated stuff, how to replicate the pros, using a bunch of medical terms, etc. This I can understand and replicate much more easier. Thanks!

Tom, you're a fantastic teacher. I've been practicing your methods for a month now. I'm making much better contact with all my clubs, and just crushing my irons. So much so, I'm unsure of my yardages now. However, I seem to be pulling shots now more than before. Hopefully I can work that kink out. Anyways, keep up the great tutorials.
I agree Josh, I was hitting behind the ball with my irons but today I broke 80 (I am 61 and don,t do that often) after following Toms advice to load up more on the left leg. Hit some cracking 4, 5 and 6 irons as Tom would say real crispy, great teacher. Wish I could drop by but from Sydney.
I’m in the UK and I’ve just stumbled across your channel. I love your enthusiasm and teaching style! You get the key points across whilst keeping it fun and easy to pick. Thank you and keep up the good work !!!’

I’m an absolute beginner golfer. I’ve gone to the range before and have been out on the course 3 times in total. I went from being able to at least hit the ball to totally destroying my confidence and could barely make contact. This video was so amazing. It inspired me to go out to the range today and I was able to get consistent hits. They weren’t all great a lot of cuts. But 2 or 3 beautiful straight drives. I can’t wait to learn more with your help thank you much for taking the time to make these.

@@SagutoGolf too funny, right as you wrote this reply I was at top golf with a friend. Using my 7 iron I get consistent contact and get arrow straight shots for 120 yards. My driver I’m able to hit almost every single time now. Some straight shots with a nice lift but some cuts too. I’m consistent now and that’s exactly what I was hoping for. All thanks to your amazing videos. I actually saw the absolute beginner video and showed a friend. Thanks again I’ll keep you up to date with my progress and will keep watching and supporting your great content
Ball position literally blew my mind. Lol. how has no one explained that so easy. I feel like I’m good at getting my feet lined up by now but wish I saw this 5 years ago
This is most helpful. A few weeks back I made a video of my swing. My setup was wrong because if you took a straight line from the bottom to the top of the club shaft, it was pointing at my belly button or above. I was too far back from the ball and my arms were extended out and stiff as a board. During my backswing, I took the club back very steep. It was between my head and shoulder. When I came down I was chopping wood with a nice little wrist flip at the end. Needless to say, I was miserable. I watched more videos and started to understand the concept more. I am still struggling but I am getting Krispy more often. I will not stop until I am extra Krispy. Thank You Tom
Tom, your videos and instruction are Awesome! Much thanks for all the great advice. Driving is my weakest part of my game, so this video was right on for me. Thanks bud!!!

Tom I like your approach to ball set up, I never thought of using the club between the heel and I hope to improved my ball hitting since it's seems more consistent. I'm 69 and getting back into golf after 5 years away, my swing is between 95 and 97 230 to 250 distance. Not only are you good you make it fun with the jokes and that I like. I am retired and watch your videos in the morning and it makes my day. Good Job
Yes it works- played the best golf of my life!!!!! Just turned forty and it was so fun….. I played 18 more!!!! Yes putting is an issue- but without putting- best games I’ve ever played
That's fantastic, @Maxx Mantooth! I'm glad to know that my instruction helped, but more importantly I'm absolutely thrilled for your increased level of enjoyment because that is what this is all really about!! Keep up the great work and be sure to put in some time on your short game!! Tom
Your humor and sarcasm are a breath of fresh air. I'm very sarcastic and this is just a game after all, no matter what level you are at. Appreciate your impressive instruction and how you make it fun. Thanks
30 years old, been playing since mid 2020 like many others, consistently shooting in the mid 80’s in the last few months because of these videos, this one in particular. Feel confident with any club at address after getting comfortable with my driver. Thank you, Tom.
To be consistently shooting mid-80's in only your second year is an awesome feat, Vaughn!! Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the fabulous work!! Tom
i’m shooting 110 in my 2nd year. I’ve watched so many different people explain golf tips, but @SagutoGolf is the one that sticks in my mind the most. I think it’s because we look like we could be brothers 😂

ive been playing golf since i was 12 and quit after 10 years at handicap of 4 as i just couldn't strike it clean, flipping at the ball constantly. i had lessons every week even went to a go academy when i left school and nothing worked! started playing again last week after 5 years without hitting a ball and found your channel after my first round. watched one saying keep your elbows pointed to your hips at address and weight on front leg and i havent struck a ball like it in my whole life. how after 10 years of constant tuition did not one coach ever notice i didnt do this and just try change everything else only to make it worse!!! crazy! i may start playing again because of your videos. thankyou

I'm very glad to know that this driver lesson resonated well with you, John - thanks for sharing!! By the way, if you search the word "drive" on this channel you'll see some related content. Upon learning this swing system properly you will be harnessing the tremendous power source known as "angular momentum". This is the reason my online school members of all age ranges end up bombing it farther than they ever had previously. Keep up the great work! Tom
Hi Tom , just want to said That " There's a lot of imitation on TH-cam , but there's just only one original for teaching Golf ... " And it's you Tom ! Thanks to sharing your Golf expérience and specially your Golf tips with us. You should be proud of your foreign student and realize how I improve my game since i apply your Golf technic. Sorry for my English because my Mother tongue is French . Anyway, dosen't matter, your teaching is Universal . Tanks Alain. I Appreciate . Bob from Montréal , Quebec, Canada .
I sincerely appreciate your very kind words, Bob, and I am so glad to know that my instruction is helping you to such an extent! Thanks you for your support in sharing your improvement, and keep up the fantastic work!! 💪💪 Tom PS: Your English is just fine, and yes - I am most grateful for my global audience!!
Thanks for giving us real specs. Most teachers are having us hit up, which I think traps me a little on the back foot. I just read that pros hit, on average, 1.3 degrees down.
You read correctly, Steven, and thus I do not advocate trying to hit up on the ball, as efforts to do so due to erroneous advice has caused many an amateur significant issues with their driver. Think of proper impact position - hands leading the clubface, bowed front wrist, weight 90% loaded into the lead leg. It'd be difficult to retain those angles if we were actually hitting up on it. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants using extra high tees and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - the path should be ever so slightly down. Cheers! Tom
Literally everything youre describing is blowing my mind. Describing the driver relative to the other clubs the way you did made my brain stop over thinking so much. Thank you!!!

Best driver tutorial ever❤❤❤ just goes to show swinging harder doesn't really add much of anything, maybe 10-15 yards. Which won't matter with 2nd shot because all you need to do at that point is go up or down an iron on 2nd shot. Like if the hole is 390 yards and I hit it 270 plus some roll to say 290, all I have to do is select my iron that I consistently hit 90-100 yards to the green. ❤❤❤
Thanks - I'm glad to know that this lesson resonated so well with you!! When we try to swing harder with the upper body, arms, or hands, we generally lose clubhead speed and accuracy because we disrupt our sequencing.

Tom, in previous videos you stressed letting your trail leg straighten at the top of your backswing but in this video I noticed that your trail leg stayed flexed? Is this because your using the driver instead of your irons or does it have something to do with pushing off more with your lead lag?

Hey Tom. EXCELLENT! I have been using this since watching you and it is a “GAME CHANGER”. I do have one major concern. I don’t hear you talking about keeping your head still. When you are describing the swing and showing examples, your head is moving all over the place. When you take your real swing, your head is stable and ultimately getting the rocket launch you describe. Please clarify that with your followers! Do you agree? I look forward to your response. Again thank you for making a huge difference in my game. I am 70 and consistently hitting in the low 80s. Most of my issues now are just short came that will come with more practice and expect to be below 80.
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! I absolutely do talk about a stable head. Here is one of my videos on this topic: th-cam.com/video/E5csidjztzg/w-d-xo.html A little bit of head tilting is acceptable (think of Jack Nicklaus), but we don't want the head to move out of the "box" established at address, neither up/down or side-to-side. Any such movement shifts the swing center and low point, causing two primary issues: 1) We lose some of the power that comes from swing in a fixed-point circle, and 2) we have to make a precise compensatory move in the downswing or else our ability to achieve consistently pure impact is fleeting. By the way, you may be interested to know 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. Have you looked into the comprehensive, sequential learning platform of the online school yet? That's where - among many other courses and lessons covering various aspects of the game - you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish. It will make for a far more efficient, superior, and enjoyable learning process rather than haphazardly trying to piece things together through these channel videos that jump around randomly from topic to topic. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many seasoned, 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 I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet. As for your short game challenges, here is a chipping lesson from last year that has helped a lot of folks to shave strokes from around the green: th-cam.com/video/aatbA39KtRc/w-d-xo.html Thanks so much for sharing your improvement and keep up the great work!!

Lol some 14 yr old pretty good golfer I said you should check out Tom Saguto stack n tilt videos he said I am on youtube all the time never heard of him I check people like George Gankas and people like that I was 170 out bam on the green he was not no problem stay with george I'll take Tom any day

Hi Tom, please make another webinar for us Europeans. At 1.30am it´s hard to follow :-) And if you are wondering how far your channel reaches: I am from Austria, and no, we don´t have Kangaroos.
Hey Tommy, Great stuff. We have changed to daylight time or maybe you don’t spring forward in South Carolina.
for amateur, what loft you would recommend for a driver? 10.5 higher or lower?
SagutoGolf e
Thank you for three of the best tips I ever got from a TH-cam instructor: move the ball to the middle of my stance, bump my hips toward the target during the backswing, and swing with the shoulders rather than swing with the arms. I got all of those ideas from you and when I make sure my right elbow goes toward my liver, I'm good. Your free, TH-cam instruction is better than what I got at Martin Chuck's $2000 camp and from local instructors who charged me $100/hour. You got the mojo, bro.
Wonder if he offers lessons.
The ball should never be in the middle of your stance when driving off the tee
@@LostHisSoninIraq he does, you just record some of your swings and send them to him. He will analyze it and tell you you what you're doing wrong and how to fix it I believe. I'm thinking of doing lessons in a few weeks when the outdoor ranges open up in my city.
@@artybone6946 I will. Thank you for the reply.
Agreed that Martin Chuck online course was kind of terrible.
Today I hit 9/12 fairways, 9/18 greens, 4 more were within 5 yards of the green. Shot an 81! Started watching Tom Saguto less than 2 months ago! Been a high 80s low 90s guy all my life. Golf is really fun right now!!
Don’t underestimate this guy. I bought his course and he knows his stuff. His humor is for TH-cam and some laughs.
He strictly business in his course.
I'm most grateful for your kind words pertaining to the online school, Jay, as well as your validating remarks regarding my instruction style.
Thanks so much for your message and support!!
Tom
Why isn’t saguto golf bigger than every other golf channel on TH-cam? Great stuff.
Not sure, @Happy, but I do appreciate your kind words and support. Shout it from the rooftops!! 😎
TS
Because people are frightened it might mess up their bad swing.
After a year off because of hand surgery .
I have changed completely to the Saguto swing and just after 4 rounds are smoking my drives sweeping fairway woods.
Hitting greens in regulation chipping consistantly.
Most of all enjoying my golf.
It's been good for me to have a year off letting my bad habits be forgotten moving into the new swing the Saguto swing just gets better with Tom's diagnostics I am no longer agnostic.
My favorite TH-camr. Tom has perfected the instructional video. Personal, funny as hell, skilled, unconventional, and he's speaking to normal golfers. So many videos are for young athletic players and people of already high skill. This channel is what REAL golf needs.
No doubt man. Tom's approach has transformed my swing. I am a believer.
I agree gtd..love your channel too.
if u inherently athletic then you can get more out of this swing. Even then more athletic people can add way more power with a simple swing. Most great batters and golfers have simple swings like this. what makes it special is their athleticism
Saguto, you are the best golf TH-camr that I have ever seen. You are funny, highly intelligent and you speak in plain English and you use examples that anyone can understand. Keep up the outstanding, funny and much needed work.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I am very glad to know that you are benefiting from my instruction content and enjoying my teaching style!!
Thanks again for your support and have fun out there!!
Tom
25 years classroom teacher, not golf, but I can say you are a natural teacher.
Thanks DD Nick - I truly appreciate that!!
Tom
I use to teach and the best way was to put out the questions, all sit around the teacher and debate how to get to the answer. Once everyone agrees to the right solution and how to get to the right answer. Then we all have won.
This is the best driver video on the internet. No exaggeration. On top of it being super informative it's hilarious. Great job, Tom and thanks for the help.
Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm very glad to know that this driver lesson resonated with you, and I hope it performs well when you put it into play!

Most likable goober on TH-cam.
And Goober was so underrated and under appreciated.
Agree!!!!
Lmao
I am 85 yrs old with a 25 handicap. My driving distance has improved by 20to 30 yards. I measured the distance yesterday at 204yds - unbelievable for me. My 3 wood was 174yds, again unbelievable. You have a wacky presentation method but it certainly works. I'm just about to sign up for your chipping and pitching course. Thank you so much for your help in improving my game enormously. My golfing buddies can't believe it.
That is FABULOUS, Joe!! Thanks so much for sharing, and keep up the great work!!
I'll bet your scores haven't improved.
I've been out of golf for about a year due to a torn rotater cuff and a back injury, not related to golf. Getting started back at 60 over injuries if very hard and depressing by yourself. Saguto videos have always motivated me very quickly., such as this awesome video. I've taken the Saguto online class. It's the best. After a year, it took me only 7 holes to start crushing my drives again doing exactly what I learned in the Saguto online school. I truly have enjoyed all of his videos while applying them. The best and most detailed golf school.
That's awesome!! 💪💪
I'm thrilled to learn of your rekindled love for this greatest of games, and I sincerely appreciate your kind words regarding the online school and this body-friendly, consistent, powerful swing system for all ages!!
Thanks so much for your support and keep up the fantastic work!!
Tom
Learning the proper way to keep the proper weight on the lead side during the entire swing has given me much, much more consistency and distance. The set you taught in the course is a game changer. Swinging every club the same way, except the driver, I use the tilt away from the target has resulted in many crispy drives, in which I had the same amount of weight on the lead foot then to. I watch one of your online videos the night before I go play every time and it's is coming together surprisingly well. Thank you. I love it!
I’ve been watching Golf videos for years...
Training myself,
Taking tips and advice,
Working hard mentally and physically on my game.
Saguto golf is God sent for me.
I’ve shared these videos with my two sons
Who both love golf 🏌️
Solute to you Tom!
Thank you Ralph!
Tom, I watched and rewatch your video on "the swing' with a driver. Although I am still learning, I hit a 240 drive on Tuesday....and then 200+ drives throughout the 18 holes....it really, really, really works! My golf buddies were stunned....I am 70 and you are right! Hit the ball "To the Moon and Back"!!!!
He’s the best. How u hitting ur irons
Hi Saguto Golfers! I've been out of golf action for a few months due to a work-related back injury. Have to confess that I'm not the best of patients, so I've deliberately stayed away from golf whilst nursing my injury. Anyway, finally got back into it 2 weeks ago and did OK. Having rediscovered my golf mojo, I've now reacquainted myself with the Sir Thomas Saguto golf school here on TH-cam. A few refresher videos later, I'm once again stacking over the ball - 55% loaded on the front foot, rotating my body around the ball, dropping the left shoulder under my chin and twatting the ball with "the wrath of god". Slowly but surely im seeing my scores getting lower and my confidence levels rise as my consistency levels push up higher on the Saguto KFC crispy scale. Keep on producing the uber-ace video's Tom, you're a breath of fresh air in an otherwise largely stale world of golf TH-camr's👌👌👌
Hi Tom - love your videos no technical terms just plain simple advice.I`m 75 now and just wish someone like you had been around 50years ago teaching like this.Keep up the great work.
I love Tom's humor in golf. It definitely makes the swing tips more interesting to follow.
5:30 am here in Arizona, drinking coffee, watching this lesson. Coffee out the nose at the 11:00 min mark. Keep up the good work!
LOL! Sorry about the mess, Shane......😆
Glad you're enjoying the content!
The golden tips here are at 14:30, IMO.
Saguto, simply the best.
I am thrilled to have found you on utube. I’ve had hundreds of lessons from various pros with marginal improvement. But I have made a giant step forward following your posts. On the practice range I am putting a sliced in half tennis ball under the left foot to keep reminding me to put the weight on that foot. Magic! Thanks so much
Another great video for beginners like me to help us improve our game, I still can't hit my driver consistently or highly, but hey, I'm now making consistent contact!
Key takeaways:
Setup: The driver setup should feel the same as any other club, with the ball positioned the same relative to your front foot. The stance widens with longer clubs, but the front foot remains consistent.
Weight Distribution: Shift 60% of your weight forward to load up power on your front side, helping you naturally push off for better launch.
Sweet Spot: Tee the ball so half of it is above the clubface to hit the sweet spot, maximizing power and distance.
Backswing & Downswing: Keep your shoulders turning 90 degrees to your spine, and remember to take the club around your body to avoid steep, inconsistent strikes.
Fixing Common Issues: For steep swings and slices, Tom recommends using an alignment stick drill to help you keep your swing on the right path.
Nice summary, Ray! A couple of points of clarification:
- While this system affords you some leeway, in general once my students and members show some level of proficiency with the swing I suggest that they migrate to a stock ball position that is in the middle of the stance for short irons, two balls inside the lead heel for middle irons, and creeping more forward for the longer clubs - the farthest forward being even with the inside of the lead heel for the driver (with the stance width increasing as we move from shorter to longer clubs). From there they can make incremental tweaks to see how different positions affect impact quality and shot shape. (By the way, I strongly suggest using alignment sticks when monitoring ball position - one on the foot line, a second one parallel to the first to mark the target line, and a third perpendicular to these to show ball position - as our side-on view from above tends to skew our perspective of the actual location of the ball relative to our stance.)
As for hand position, it remains consistent - even with the inside of your lead thigh - no matter which club you are hitting. Additionally, the lead arm and club shaft should form a straight line from the face-on view, giving your setup a lowercase "y" look.
- With regard to the setup - and this applies to every club - we 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.
As I may have shared in a previous reply, if you'd really like to get on the fast track towards properly learning this swing system in a comprehensive, sequential platform, please consider my online school. It will make for a far more efficient, superior, and enjoyable learning process rather than haphazardly trying to piece things together through these channel videos that jump around randomly from topic to topic.

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. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet.

Still in awe of how good these videos are. As I mentioned on another one of your posts, I'm just starting golf again after a 30 year absence, and the game has changed a lot since I last swung a club. Your videos have been invaluable in getting me back up to speed. I've still got a long way to go, but I'm getting there with content like this! I'm looking into getting a subscription to your web site, too.
Thanks again for your comments and support, and I hope to see you soon in the online school!!

One of the best driver lessons I’ve ever seen!!! I’ve always been hesitant to load the front leg. Always thought I had to have weight on back foot. Thanks Saguto!!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Keith!!
Sadly, many misconstrued and/or misguided teachings of "conventional" instruction - such as turning the shoulders level while independently lifting the club, shifting into and torquing against a firm trail side, actively rolling the hands through impact, etc. - have relegated generations of golfers to the vast abyss of chronic frustration (and chronic back/knee/hip pain as well). We're doing our best here to clear these up one by one and put an end to this madness!
TS
@@SagutoGolf FYI - I gained 35 yards on my drive!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Awesome!!!!
I’m currently enrolled in Tom’s online course. It has helped my game tremendously but my driving is still terrible.
I took this lesson to the driving range over the past few days. Not sure what 60% feels like on my lead leg but I stacked a lot of weight on it, took my backswing, and ripped it dead straight. Then I did it again, and again, and again.
As far as the push up from the lead leg during follow through, I felt that I had to initiate this as it didn’t seem to come as naturally as Tom suggests. Who cares? I was hitting the ball at least 250 and straight.
I have been following Tom for a few months now trying all of the free stuff I could get. I came across his video on keeping the left arm straight and putting your weight on the lead side and it transformed my swing. After watching YT videos for years and trying so many techniques I was still skeptical, but after about three months of practice, mainly with irons, there is no doubt - it is the real deal. Now it might not be for everyone, but for me it was THE game changer I was looking for. Time for me to commit and join up. I want it all now.
He didn’t stack as much towards the end. 330?? Amazing.
Just a regular hacker here that's taken many lessons over the last twenty-something years that loves the game but struggles with inconsistency-no longer. I purchased the online course and the money was well spent!!! Saguta explains it in detail with specific drills to develop a consistent swing. The results are lower scores and I'm no longer overthinking over the ball. The improvement is an instance so I no longer feel lost even during those lapses of concentration we all are prone to on the course. FYI, I don't get paid for this advertisement. Thank you Saguto!!
Thank you for your kind words and your (unpaid 😆) testimonial for the online school, Alex!! I'm very glad to know that you are benefiting from the instruction and enjoying this great game more as a result; that is ultimately what this is all about.
I did my best to price the school at a "no-brainer" level given the quality and effectiveness of the delivered product, and I sincerely appreciate you recognizing that and taking the time to "shout it from the rooftop"!!
Thanks again, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!

Your instruction has positively changed my game ! Most instructors on uTube make golf complex and basically confuse everyone. Thank you Tom
I'm very glad to learn of your improvement, Nickolas!!
Unfortunately, such sorcery from this dark underworld of golf instruction rarely finds its way to the mainstream because if too many folks found out about it the mainstream would then be rendered irrelevant. 😎
The way I see it, we can either simply put the already existing natural laws to work for us, or we can twist, morph, torque, contrive, and otherwise mess with the principles of physics and geometry in an effort to better suit some ill-conceived whims, all the while recognizing that at the point of impact those pre-existing laws are going to be the only things that matter to the ball.
Thanks for your kind words and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Love it Tom plus you want all of us golfers to hit it better at no cost to us normal working class people what an unselfish man
You also have a great sense of humor even for a Norwegian like myself

Thank you TS. I’m 74 and you have helped me hit it consistently flush!
Good job Tom. The most important thing I got out of this for me was it made me aware that I was dropping my
left side down on the back swing to get my left shoulder down. I am sure I did not do that in my younger days. I enjoyed your presentation, keep up the good work you make the game fun again.
Been using all these tips on the range and on the course. It's so simple and easy, the last 4 rounds shot 75,77,78&76 all thanks to you has made the game more enjoyable now🙂
From the lady tee box?
@@AC-cj9zl Some people actually break 80 every day. Shocking, I know.
That looks my high school scores in 1980.
I can't stress enough how Tom makes me excited about getting out to the range to practice. His simple breakdown makes me believe I can do it. And... it works. I'm hitting it so much better. There are still years of bad habits to work through so I have to take it slowly but I think I'm starting to remake my ineffective, inconsistent swing. Many thanks.
Thanks again for your kind words, Whitney!
What I teach is a complete golf swing system, not a series of tips, band-aids, and fixes for field dressing swing wounds. As such, the transformation takes time as we work to gradually eradicate those stubborn ghosts of swings past. It's a very worthwhile process, though, as it ultimately leads us to the land of consistent ball striking bliss. That is also why the sequential, comprehensive, structured learning platform of the school is far superior to trying to haphazardly piece things together through a series of YT videos.
Keep up the great work!!
Tom
At 7:39 you had me dying over here lol. I’m learning and laughing (L&L) at the same time. You are the king of L&L lol I’m so glad I came across your channel. I’m a life time subscriber now. I’m a lifer!
😆😆😆
If you're looking for a "lesson and a show", then you've come to the right place, Jason! Just know that despite the entertainment aspect, everything taught here from a golf swing perspective is consistent with a swing system rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology, and modeled on empirical observations of the game's greatest ball strikers. So have a chuckle or two, and then get to work! 😎
Thanks so much for your subscription and support - I'm thrilled to have you onboard!!

I about died laughing when he said “and then hit it with the wrath of god”. Then he smoked the building. 😂
You know, I have seen Tom's vids come up in my feed or whatever YT calls it. I finally clicked on one, now have been binging LOL. He should do standup while still teaching us this swing!
Me too‼️🤣😂❤
Me 2‼️🤣😂
Tom, tried this out over the weekend. i was hooking a bit, but flushed several drives 270 metres! I'm nearly 50! My mates weak slice was going 180 max. He wasn't happy...
That's what I like to hear! Feels good huh?! Keep at it, it only gets better when you smooth it out a bit and really pick out the small details in the videos.
yeah same, couple of drives out at 280 metres total, not sure on carry. but definitely an extra 30 metres and i wasn't stepping on it either
Your humor in addition to your knowledge makes your videos so good to watch!
Thanks!! I'm very glad to know that you are benefiting from my lesson content and enjoying my teaching style!!

Tom, I'm loving the simple concepts you share and the entertaining lighthearted way you go about it. 5,000 volts indeed!
So much more clear than all these big time golf TH-camrs. They get into all this complicated stuff, how to replicate the pros, using a bunch of medical terms, etc. This I can understand and replicate much more easier. Thanks!

Tom, you're a fantastic teacher. I've been practicing your methods for a month now. I'm making much better contact with all my clubs, and just crushing my irons. So much so, I'm unsure of my yardages now. However, I seem to be pulling shots now more than before. Hopefully I can work that kink out. Anyways, keep up the great tutorials.
I agree Josh, I was hitting behind the ball with my irons but today I broke 80 (I am 61 and don,t do that often) after following Toms advice to load up more on the left leg. Hit some cracking 4, 5 and 6 irons as Tom would say real crispy, great teacher. Wish I could drop by but from Sydney.
The best instructor of Golf on youtube!
Thanks - I truly appreciate your kind words and support!!

Can`t wait to try this. My iron game has improved so much thanks to you, so now time to master the Driver :)

I’m an absolute beginner golfer. I’ve gone to the range before and have been out on the course 3 times in total. I went from being able to at least hit the ball to totally destroying my confidence and could barely make contact. This video was so amazing. It inspired me to go out to the range today and I was able to get consistent hits. They weren’t all great a lot of cuts. But 2 or 3 beautiful straight drives. I can’t wait to learn more with your help thank you much for taking the time to make these.

@@SagutoGolf too funny, right as you wrote this reply I was at top golf with a friend. Using my 7 iron I get consistent contact and get arrow straight shots for 120 yards. My driver I’m able to hit almost every single time now. Some straight shots with a nice lift but some cuts too. I’m consistent now and that’s exactly what I was hoping for. All thanks to your amazing videos. I actually saw the absolute beginner video and showed a friend. Thanks again I’ll keep you up to date with my progress and will keep watching and supporting your great content
Ball position literally blew my mind. Lol. how has no one explained that so easy. I feel like I’m good at getting my feet lined up by now but wish I saw this 5 years ago
This is most helpful. A few weeks back I made a video of my swing. My setup was wrong because if you took a straight line from the bottom to the top of the club shaft, it was pointing at my belly button or above. I was too far back from the ball and my arms were extended out and stiff as a board. During my backswing, I took the club back very steep. It was between my head and shoulder. When I came down I was chopping wood with a nice little wrist flip at the end. Needless to say, I was miserable. I watched more videos and started to understand the concept more. I am still struggling but I am getting Krispy more often. I will not stop until I am extra Krispy. Thank You Tom
Don't stop at extra crispy, Tom. We need to add the mashed potatoes and gravy!! 😎
Tom, your videos and instruction are Awesome! Much thanks for all the great advice. Driving is my weakest part of my game, so this video was right on for me. Thanks bud!!!

Tom I like your approach to ball set up, I never thought of using the club between the heel and I hope to improved my ball hitting since it's seems more consistent. I'm 69 and getting back into golf after 5 years away, my swing is between 95 and 97 230 to 250 distance. Not only are you good you make it fun with the jokes and that I like. I am retired and watch your videos in the morning and it makes my day. Good Job
Yes it works- played the best golf of my life!!!!! Just turned forty and it was so fun….. I played 18 more!!!! Yes putting is an issue- but without putting- best games I’ve ever played
That's fantastic, @Maxx Mantooth! I'm glad to know that my instruction helped, but more importantly I'm absolutely thrilled for your increased level of enjoyment because that is what this is all really about!!
Keep up the great work and be sure to put in some time on your short game!!
Tom
"Ball position is anchored by your left foot"...Huge aha moment for me, thanks!
My pleasure! I'm glad that little ball position tip help you, Rene!!

Now that setup tip near the beginning is superb. Only the right foot moves. Superb.
Thanks Danny - I'm glad that tip helped you!!

LOL, Thanks Tom, a very informative and Fun Time at Driver's ED, I really needed this!
Your humor and sarcasm are a breath of fresh air. I'm very sarcastic and this is just a game after all, no matter what level you are at. Appreciate your impressive instruction and how you make it fun. Thanks
30 years old, been playing since mid 2020 like many others, consistently shooting in the mid 80’s in the last few months because of these videos, this one in particular. Feel confident with any club at address after getting comfortable with my driver. Thank you, Tom.
To be consistently shooting mid-80's in only your second year is an awesome feat, Vaughn!!

ive been playing golf since i was 12 and quit after 10 years at handicap of 4 as i just couldn't strike it clean, flipping at the ball constantly. i had lessons every week even went to a go academy when i left school and nothing worked! started playing again last week after 5 years without hitting a ball and found your channel after my first round. watched one saying keep your elbows pointed to your hips at address and weight on front leg and i havent struck a ball like it in my whole life. how after 10 years of constant tuition did not one coach ever notice i didnt do this and just try change everything else only to make it worse!!! crazy! i may start playing again because of your videos. thankyou

By the way, if you search the word "drive" on this channel you'll see some related content. Upon learning this swing system properly you will be harnessing the tremendous power source known as "angular momentum".

Hey Tom. Love your energy. Any chance you could make a video on up hill and down hill lie as well as ball above the feet and below? Thanks 😂👍
Watching from Oz. Tom, you are by far the most entertaining golf channel on YT. On point too. Keep serving up that crispy goodness, mate.
Do you use an “active” hand release through the hitting area or do you use a “drive hold” type release? Tom could you answer this please? Thank you.
Dave Parsons way to make it weird guy
Hold off thru 2-3 ft after impact and then rehinge the wrists to release the club.
Hi Tom , just want to said That " There's a lot of imitation on TH-cam , but there's just only one original for teaching Golf ... " And it's you Tom !

Tom
PS: Your English is just fine, and yes - I am most grateful for my global audience!!
Thanks for giving us real specs. Most teachers are having us hit up, which I think traps me a little on the back foot. I just read that pros hit, on average, 1.3 degrees down.
You read correctly, Steven, and thus I do not advocate trying to hit up on the ball, as efforts to do so due to erroneous advice has caused many an amateur significant issues with their driver. Think of proper impact position - hands leading the clubface, bowed front wrist, weight 90% loaded into the lead leg. It'd be difficult to retain those angles if we were actually hitting up on it. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants using extra high tees and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - the path should be ever so slightly down.
Cheers!
Tom
Literally everything youre describing is blowing my mind. Describing the driver relative to the other clubs the way you did made my brain stop over thinking so much. Thank you!!!

I'd like to see out on the course, like a golf vlog.
Best driver tutorial ever❤❤❤ just goes to show swinging harder doesn't really add much of anything, maybe 10-15 yards. Which won't matter with 2nd shot because all you need to do at that point is go up or down an iron on 2nd shot. Like if the hole is 390 yards and I hit it 270 plus some roll to say 290, all I have to do is select my iron that I consistently hit 90-100 yards to the green. ❤❤❤
Thanks - I'm glad to know that this lesson resonated so well with you!!
When we try to swing harder with the upper body, arms, or hands, we generally lose clubhead speed and accuracy because we disrupt our sequencing. Here's a resent lesson on that topic: th-cam.com/video/VtufwVMChHg/w-d-xo.html

Tom, in previous videos you stressed letting your trail leg straighten at the top of your backswing but in this video I noticed that your trail leg stayed flexed? Is this because your using the driver instead of your irons or does it have something to do with pushing off more with your lead lag?
his trail leg is the same the whole time, It's the longer arc that is deceiving you.
Or possibly the stance being wider, due to longer club
Best video ever to fix your driver swing. Tom is frigging awesome.

"If you swing over the stick, I'm going to get so mad" lol
Hey Tom. EXCELLENT! I have been using this since watching you and it is a “GAME CHANGER”. I do have one major concern. I don’t hear you talking about keeping your head still. When you are describing the swing and showing examples, your head is moving all over the place. When you take your real swing, your head is stable and ultimately getting the rocket launch you describe. Please clarify that with your followers! Do you agree? I look forward to your response. Again thank you for making a huge difference in my game. I am 70 and consistently hitting in the low 80s. Most of my issues now are just short came that will come with more practice and expect to be below 80.
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!
I absolutely do talk about a stable head. Here is one of my videos on this topic: th-cam.com/video/E5csidjztzg/w-d-xo.html A little bit of head tilting is acceptable (think of Jack Nicklaus), but we don't want the head to move out of the "box" established at address, neither up/down or side-to-side. Any such movement shifts the swing center and low point, causing two primary issues: 1) We lose some of the power that comes from swing in a fixed-point circle, and 2) we have to make a precise compensatory move in the downswing or else our ability to achieve consistently pure impact is fleeting.
By the way, you may be interested to know 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. Have you looked into the comprehensive, sequential learning platform of the online school yet? That's where - among many other courses and lessons covering various aspects of the game - you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish. It will make for a far more efficient, superior, and enjoyable learning process rather than haphazardly trying to piece things together through these channel videos that jump around randomly from topic to topic. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many seasoned, 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 I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet.
