Andrew’s instruction got me to single figures as a senior for the first time earlier this year. It’s been my lifelong - well, golfing life - ambition. Thank you!
Wow!! That is awesome Tony. You know, when I started my channel just 14 months ago my goal was to impact recreational golfers in a positive way so they could increase their enjoyment of the game!! I’m so glad that my videos have helped golfers that wouldn’t otherwise have access to my coaching!! Thanks for sharing…….Congrats!! Best, Coach A. ⛳️🏌️♂️🙏🏻
@@AndrewEmeryGolf It’s weird, Andrew. I watch so much TH-cam golf content. By definition, they’re general in their focus. But your videos seem to be personally tailored to me, as if you’re directly answering my questions. They’ve had a massive impact on me. I’d buy you a drink if you were still living here in Blighty!
This is it. It works. This guy is teaching money concepts. 90% of all teachers out there are pushing the wrong concepts for club golfers. They are pushing the body swing on golfers who aren’t using their hands. I now work on stabilizing the body on the downswing. The body does turn, but it’s not my intent. It’s a reaction. I’m hitting it more solidly and consistently than I ever have. Thanks, Andrew!
Best instructor on the planet! Bold statement I know, but Andrew debunks almost everything we am's have been taught. I've only watched his videos and he has changed my swing dramatically and I was already a six handicap with the crap swing I had. Pay attention to him, his method and communication skills will prolong your golf life.
Thank you for your comment. I’m so glad that you’ve found what works for you! That’s the key I believe - One size will never fit all but it’s been a necessary itch to scratch with regard to helping golfers educate their wrists and arms. So many golfers spinning their bodies to shankville! Best, Coach A. ⛳️🏌️♂️🙏🏻
Andrew I can report back that your approach for us old "slow lane" golfers is actually working-well. The simple thought of keeping the back to target, dropping the arms as the forearms twist the shaft square is working. Im getting back some of the speed and accuracy now that has been lost over the decades-im 58 and have only restarted golf 3 years ago after 30 years away as i wish to play with my sons. TH-cam golf is a very fraught place. Few cater to the masses of slow lane golfers. My local pros spurt the same stuff-"fire the hips", "its the core not the arms that sling the club", "its from the ground up" etc etc All other channels I subscribed to are now are deleted. If you dont do what the others do and Keep it simple, dont change to something new and exciting with every video but just keep reinforcing the same concepts that will be very refreshing.
Fabulous, well spoken instruction, feels like he is coaching me directly. Has helped me greatly with watching just 5 lessons. I’m 70 years old and his sling the club with the arms and hands has got me driving the ball an extra 30 to 40 yards. Training my hands and wrists has really tightened my iron play. I have taking a lot of personal lessons with minimal improvement. Very well targeted instruction to the amateur golfer. I feel I have a chance to break 80 again with his instruction. Enjoying his instruction from Canada.
Wow! - 30/40yards is incredible!! It sounds like you’re using your arms and wrists and they were probably dormant for many years! So glad to hear that you’re increasing your enjoyment of the game! Best, Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
So thankful to you for this lesson! Once upon a time I was a single digit HC only to be lured toward body rotation mechanics. You truly have a talent to communicate, demonstrate and simplify the most critical aspects of a golf swing. Thanks to you, I’ve rediscovered the relationship with my wrists/forearms as it relates to the club face. Finally arrived at enjoying golf again!
Love the “what we don’t want to do guys is snap the the wrists at the ball at the last second! Very difficult to control that!!!” 😂 Thanks Drew, great video from a very talented player and coach!!
That’s awesome!!! I’m so happy to hear that. Spread the word and share my channel with your friends. On second thoughts maybe keep it a secret for yourself!?? Or, at least take some money off ‘em first before sharing!! Best, Coach A. 🤣⛳️🏌️♂️🙏🏻
Excellent Andrew. Exactly what I have been working on over the last few months and some new subtleties to consider. Very few others are knowledgeable enough to explain the full swing timing details in this. Keep up the good work Schaun
Andrew- I set up with my trail shoulder closed, trail arm under lead arm, and try to keep my back to the target as long as possible. My trail arm is going under my lead arm. I had a spinning out move as you described. This stopped that. I swing in to out on down swing, and fire with full extension through the ball, hitting a small draw. I hit a high tee shot that carries well, for a 70+ year old golfer. Very solid contact. My grip is strong, that naturally closes the face. I don’t have to think about it.
Ron, you make some extremely salient points all around! What you’re describing with your transformation is what I see on the range every day! There are so many body spinning, handle dragging short hitters out there I think I’m going to be set for life!! You’ve discovered what it takes to sequence your swing and create more speed with a lot less effort!! Congrats! Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
Love your instruction for us mere mortals! Absolutely the best instruction that I have seen for amateur golfers! I really appreciate your explanations including the “why” behind each point and the fact that you always point out which type of swing each point applies to. I don’t think everyone does a good job of explaining that on the front end and unfortunately it isn’t always obvious to those that don’t study swing mechanics regularly. I truly appreciate the time and effort that you have put into this and many of your videos/lessons have helped me tremendously. I have recently shot my 2 best rounds ever at an 82 and 84 which was a 10 stroke jump for me. I did notice on those rounds that the biggest difference was staying out of hazards off the tee and then chipping and putting well. Oddly enough my iron play was a little off in both rounds which is usually my strong point. Regardless of score, I have enjoyed the game so much more being able to swing more freely and consistently with your instruction. Thank you Andrew!
Andrew, your golf swing instructions are clear and precise. They are easy to follow and I really think you are one of the best instructor out there. Thanks for a great lesson.
Andrew you should have so many more subscribers as your advice is easy to understand and it makes my golf swing so much more flowing and less stress on my lower back, massive thumbs up👍
Thank you!! Hoping to hit 20k next month. I’ve had well over 2m views since starting 14 months ago. I don’t think I would have believed that’s possible when I started! 🤔🤣 I also have just over 100 vids. (Incl. YT Shorts) which isn’t many really. I look at these guys with a lot of subscribers and they’ve been at it for many years with 1000-1500 vids! That’s so impressive to me!! Well deserved for them! It’s a lot of hard work that’s for sure! I’ll keep chugging along and see where the journey takes me!! Having fun!! Welcome aboard! Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
It was much more appreciated that that Andrew...I really do think this video and all the others that it is connected to is of great value to the golfing community and in your style of relating information on the how, when, and why of the golf swing many steps ahead of the many other instructors on utube. Putting it all together in one video has given me a 360 degree picture of what the influences are that govern the movement of the club heads travels back to the ball. I sincerely hope that you get all that you are hopeing for from your work and If I could do anything to aid in your success I would do so. If you ever want people to write testimonials or such for your work please feel free to call on me..again, many thanks for your work.. aloha, Bruce Russell, Big Island, Hawaii
Bruce, thank you for your kind words of support. I’m so glad that the videos on my channel are resonating! I’ll keep you in mind for future testimonials! Best, Coach A. ⛳️🏌️♂️🙏🏻
Hi Mike, lots of requests. Can’t do all of them unfortunately! If you can be more specific with what you mean by ‘feels at post impact?” I’ll be happy to an answer you! Best, Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
@@AndrewEmeryGolf Thanks for getting back. Say you started from your impact position, what would/do you feel you're doing with the club/your body from there?
Mike, I’m free wheeling! Impact of course isn’t a position! Trying to create forward shaft lean or lag is counter productive for most! I like to send my speed home. It’s not a flip but rather a throwing motion with the arms relaxing/extending and of course rotating! I will say that I’m very cognizant of swinging ‘through’ the ball rather than AT the ball! Hope that makes sense! Best, A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
Andrew, I am sure with your style of teaching we can all learn quickly Is it possible for you to do a quick video on the reason we are hitting or bottoming out to far behind the ball?? Thank you
Hi Andrew, great video, for me and perhaps others if you simply pull those hands down as quick as you can with your back to the target your body and arms rollout naturally, natural reaction is to turn , you cannot stop it. Simply keeping my back to the target and pulling my arms straight down forces the club to square up straight at the ball easily with nothing to think about . Very much what Greg teachers at Overhand Golf . ( Keep up the great work !!)
Coach A. So glad you have made your videos on release and how the arms and wrists work in down swing. Best I have ever seen! Starting to see some nice results with irons. Have not hit many good with driver so far. Some pushes but most low straight hooks or low pull hooks. Should I be looking at something different with driver? Really appreciate you!
We’re hitting down (-) AOA with the irons which negates loft and helps with compression! If you do this with a driver you’re going to have some problems. Hitting up is what most recreational golfers are missing. The lead wrist isn’t pointing down like an iron. Try feeling like your lead wrist is pointing slightly up through the ball. Here’s a video that should help! ⬇️ th-cam.com/video/LYLc5pV3VAE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2gBVNyLF9b_BBmNW
I have been really working on wrists, arms, and release. I left several questions and Coach A answered them all! What is even more amazing is that his answers were actually answers. Simple and easy to understand. Not such complicated technique that we are worse after we try them than they were before. How refreshing this approach is in the maze of confusing TH-cam golf instruction jungle!! Keep up the great work Coach A!! Appreciate you!!
+2 hdcp with w/ a jacked up trail shoulder that limits my mobility and I can unequivocally say AE’s instruction/ethos is money for nearly 99.9% of us. I encourage everyone to play 9 or 18 holes w/ their foot dropped back or even w/ feet close together to get the feel of the exact movement Andrew was just talking about… Keep up fighting the good fight, Andrew!
Thank you sir!! I’m grateful for your support and I’m so glad that my channel has helped you increase your enjoyment of the game. More speed with less effort is a beautiful thing! Get after it! Best, Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
Hi Larry, in general pitches require a different ‘release pattern’ in order to utilize the bounce and loft of the sand wedge! Most recreational golfers have slow ball speed tee to green and fast ball speed with their short game which is problematic! Twisting the shaft negates dynamic loft and promotes a draw with an inside out path which is very effective from the tee to the green. But an ‘open’ club face will always be your friend when you want to get up and down with a ‘pitch’ shot around the green!! Best, Coach A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
@@AndrewEmeryGolf Many golfers still think you need to clear your hips first and the arms will drop in position. I took the game up in my thirties and could never time that. Dropping the arms first is easier and just makes more sense.
Great video Andrew. As we are pulling down the golf butt vertically (while upper body is still closed to the target line), when do we start the anti-clockwise twisting motion with the left wrist ? Is it at shoulder height in the downswing for driver and at chest height for irons? Thank you.
I assume the amount of twist one would need to add coming down would be relative to how strong the grip is? I have somewhat of a strong grip and when I focus on twisting the shaft I end up wayyyy closed by the time I reach impact.. shanks, pull hooks, you name it
I find the less I move the body just let it react your arms will react like andrew says but turn your body first they tend to not release and you have a more hold on release this way works great I think.
@@AndrewEmeryGolf I think your videos are hitting the spot with me. Im a senior golfer with a stiff back and knees and have recently been taught to fire my bloody hips and pivot as fast as I can as the first motion in the downswing and your arms follow etc etc. I played OK golf as a youngster and definitely felt my arms go first with that feeling of a club sling with my back staying to the target. This feeling of the arms dropping and the the tumbling the head out over past the handle is what I mean -handle drops down, clubhead out in front of it sort of thing. I wonder if this description below is similar the motion you refer to when you mention torquing the club with your hands-- th-cam.com/users/clipUgkxAZbiJiZeKrwgAJflJFg7TuvqhtG2adZz?si=kiUSTsnu8GMdN4PO
Yes! The goal is to keep your body closed long enough to get your arms down in front of you!! “FEEL like your arms are pulling your body!” Best, A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
Really great! I went out this evening with my seven iron and was able to incorporate a lot of what you’re describing, including keeping my back to the target, and I ended up hitting some really great shots. Thank you for all of your excellent coaching! 🏌️♂️

How far I should drop the club with arms before I rotate my body? Is it in front of me ?
Yes! The goal is to keep your body closed long enough to get your arms down in front of you!! “FEEL like your arms are pulling your body!” Best, A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻

What is the animal in the background?

Really great! I went out this evening with my seven iron and was able to incorporate a lot of what you’re describing, including keeping my back to the target, and I ended up hitting some really great shots. Thank you for all of your excellent coaching! 🏌️♂️
Glad it helped! Better concept for better results! Best, A. 🏌️♂️⛳️🙏🏻
