Warren this drill will be added to my practices routines. My grip pressure at times feels like an 11 and so intend on controlling the club I’m exhausted.. My focus when training to keep my grip pressure at 1 and allowed the wrists to move freely. I’ve also added turning the club reverse, butt end down, for a couple of swing then to a normal grip. In doing so I can feel the weight of the club head when swinging. Thanks again for your work.
Just tried your loose wrists method with both irons and driver during a freezing round of golf today-absolute game-changer! It worked perfectly to square the clubface at impact and boosted my club head speed noticeably. My playing partner was seriously impressed. Two things I focused on: making a full shoulder turn/backswing with completely relaxed wrists and staying relaxed during the transition and downswing. My instinct on the range was to muscle it, as usual, but after warming up with your method, I fully committed to it on the course. The results? Pure strikes and insane consistency, even under pressure. Had some of the longest drives and best ball-striking I’ve ever had. Thanks so much for the excellent explanations-this really clicked for me!”
This is so lovely to hear, thank you for taking the time to message me. It really is one of the little secrets but easily overlooked. Many thanks and well done. Regards Warren
Hi Warren, I’ve played single figures for 40 years and put in so much effort that at 70 I’m struggling- just watching this one video tells me my top hand grip has been far too tight. Tried this out yesterday and what a lightbulb moment 👍 Really brought the enjoyment back for me and so smooth and truly effortless. Thank you
I’m so glad it helped and makes perfect sense, like my friend said to me many years ago, “to gain control you’ve got to lose it!” Meaning the more we don’t control and swing free, better consistency can happen. Many thanks for the message. Regards Warren
It has taken some time to overcome the muscle memory of my previously poorly executed golf swing, but I made it happen. With stack and tilt I am consistently hitting a nice draw instead of a wicked slice. Thanks for your coaching and reinforcements.
Hi Joe, it’s so difficult isn’t it but well done for staying in there and making it happen, many wouldn’t have, but I think us golfers are ok with a bit of lost form if we can see and understand the path. Takes a lot of work and probably more patience so I salute you for your work. Well done Warren
Hi Warren, greetings from snowy cold Ottawa, Canada. Just discovered your youtube lessons a week ago. Just turned 80 this year, luckily still fit enough to enjoy playing, your lessons on developing speed with the hands and arms are a revelation. Lessons I had years ago focused on creating speed with the body and just allowing the arms along for the ride never seemed to work consistently for me. Lost a lot of speed as I've aged and really became frustrated this past summer. I love the drills you've described so clearly, and I'm able to do them at home as golf right now is out of the question. Even bought a, impact bag to work with. Please keep up the great content and I hope you manage to land in the type of position you deserve, you're a great teacher.
Hi Gilbert, many thanks for sending this message to me and I’m so grateful your feedback. I’m so happy you found the channel but most of all an opportunity for you to improve your golf. Wishing you warmer days ahead and please send over any questions. Kind regards Warren
Really good as usual. An excellent reminder about where the speed actually comes from. I'm having lessons and making strides with my swing so I always try to be careful about overloading my brain with swing tips from TH-cam but you've never messed me up.
Hi Mark, Many thanks and well done for realising that it can be easy to go down the rabbit hole on TH-cam. Finding something that works is the key and getting better at that. Many thanks me and wishing you well. Warren
Hi Chas, Thank you for your message mate I hope that you’re keeping well and I hope to see Chestfield soon . I’m missing a lot of you guys there . Kind regards as always Warren
Hi Phil, Thank you very much for letting me know and giving me feedback on the video, it is very much appreciated. Good luck with your goals and wishing you well. Kind regards Warren
Ty so much Warren this video really hits home for me. Never could get into the proper p6 position with the shaft horizontal and hands infront of right leg. Always unable to grasp the right to left travel of the club vs rotation of the forearms to square or turn the club face. Glad that towards the end you do address hooks and slices. Would you be able to do a follow up on how to blend this drill with forearm rotation and wrist flexion (turning it "down") for a draw - fix an open face. The only club I struggle with an open face is my driver. Miss is push fades/slices, When I try to close the face with forearm supination & left wrist flexion etc, I can still miss it right or hit snap hooks that have hardly carry any distance.
This is SOOOO good. The slo mos (hands leading the club) and the grip pressure 1 out of 10. I really have only acknowledged swing tension over the past couple years, and it is a battle to get rid of it. But these concepts and the video are gold.
Thank you so much, not only for watching but for your feedback. I hope it can be of help and please keep me posted on any progress or if you need any help. Kind regards Warren
Great video content Warren you are one of the best instructors I have seen on you tube. You are really helping to improve my golf swing on the course. Thanks for that PK
Hi brian Never a true word has spoken. I definitely know who the main attraction is of the channel, and it definitely not me. If in doubt put a dog on the screen. Many thanks for taking the time to comment, and thank you for your support of the channel . Kind regards Warren
Great Video again Warren. Especially explaining it with Hogans Swing. Now i understand what Mc Hatton (the hat) meant with loose wrists.
Great video, thanks Warren

This is brilliant! Nobody else on the tube giving away nuggets like Warren.

Dear Warren, you never ceased to amaze me, thank you so much.
Yes and this feeling can only be attained without tension in the hands and wrists .....
This is what nobody is talking about. Everything in this video is spot on. Congratulations on getting more subscribers by the day!
Thanks, Jesse, appreciate you leaving your feedback again, and I know really grateful for everyone subscribing.
Wishing you well

Excellent explanation of how the swing works at generating power. Another great video, Warren. Many thanks. Chas
Hi Chas,
Thank you for your message mate I hope that you’re keeping well and I hope to see Chestfield soon .
I’m missing a lot of you guys there .
Kind regards as always

Nicely explained Warren. Best to Trev!
Great video content Warren you are one of the best instructors I have seen on you tube. You are really helping to improve my golf swing on the course. Thanks for that PK
Great tips
Another gem Warren , very many thanks . There’s a video of Tommy Armour on TH-cam which shows the lag developing .
Brilliant video, so important to let the club swing like you show. When I do that (did similar at range today) it's surprising how far the ball goes
Hey mate thanks for all your videos, hope Trev is going okay and feeling better
You might think we turn up to watch you, Warren, but the draw is 10% you, 90% the wonderful Trev
