Great stuff Marcus! As someone once said, "By the time you change direction the swing is over". No time to think about a multiplicity of positions or mini moves. The biggest improvement in my forty-year-old swing came when I started to focus on intended ball flight and then, critically, achieving the club 'swish' noise AFTER the ball. It's a great single swing thought for the course too.
I have found in my own swing and others I've helped that the early release is often the byproduct of an incomplete turn in the backswing (body and arm structure) so the tendency is to feel like you have to rush back to the ball to generate power. This is REALLY a great message/instruction as per usual Zen Team!
I’ve learned from this channel the 10000 hour talent code is a myth ... it’s all about understanding the actual task ... and once you understand it the talent comes instantly... each Zen video is hardcore evidence and proves it!
@@longjohn5322 @ZEN golf mechanic I am well aware of the narrative of the Talent Code ... They targeted professional who have the common denominator of being "affiliated" with their respective endeavor for more than 10K hours ... Yet in retrospect the claim 10K is some magical tipping point ... In fact my point is bolstered by their example of overhyping and romanticizing young Russian children pretending to swinging a tennis racket for several days as part of the 10K process ... #really Sounds good in theory and there may have been some benefit but still no proof .. Placing a 10K label on any working professional that has been affiliated with their endeavor for decades is worthless ... And by the way ... If you really pay attention to Marcus videos he has worked with the so called PROFESSIONALS too ... who greatly improved because they gain a different PERSPECTIVE to the task as I mentioned earlier. Bottom line ... understand the task .. build more competence .. and "krush" the romanticized 10K zone (that never really existed) ...
The high/low draw thing confuses me a bit. If you release the toe you'd be decreasing loft - low draw. The high draw just seems counter intuitive to this kind of approach to generating shape - face closed to path but maintaining loft = high draw?
A super session with Marcus, George & Craig which I really enjoyed. I now have a frame of reference to improve. Thank you ! 🙌🏽
The sound difference in those strikes at the end Michael was brilliant, hope you smash it on the course mate
Pure gold. Delighted for Michael. Nice guy.
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something. I'm amazed at how you teach in such a way that all of your students learn. Cheers.
Amazing!
That's the biggest improvement I've seen on any one Zen video, and I've watched just about all of them.
One of the best instruction I’ve seen, great work guys
Another fab transformation Markus and Team. Michael is set for a dramatic drop in his handicap.

I think your coaching is brilliant. I will be implementing these natural moves .

Love this. Now understand the difference between flail and flip.
Could you please do a video on finding the optimum grip?
This is the golf channel to watch on TH-cam. These guys should be crying their eyes out at the end, men don't do vulnerability 🤣
Really brilliant stuff…. Always interesting that to learn you need to give up some control to gain control and relearn to be better
Great video. So many of the items discussed relate to me. And now it has been explained 👍
Well done Michael looked great at the end
Nice video. Beautiful effortless swing. Mine still feels and looks very labored. Working on it...
Another totally satisfied student.
Every visit with Marcus is like Xmas Day for that player.

@@goldengate8287 yeah!
@@longjohn5322 -the 10,000 hr ‘myth’ is simple that. A myth.
How would this apply to driver? Just create an air divot behind the ball and catch the ball on the upswing?
This was a great vid and lesson!! Alas, I have been dealing with a squishing mat for quite some time !!!
Great effort, gents!
Thank you
Dude is an athlete
Great video as always

Worked on this a few weeks ago with Marcus, didn't have the same dance routine going though😂😂
My misspent youth partying in nightclubs finally came to fruition! 😂
@@michaelgreen3869 Glad you enjoyed the lesson pal
