Congrats! You did something no other TH-cam golf instructor has done- demonstrating the mechanics of the club to generate left & right spins. Nobody seems to do this at the club face level. Excellent job!
"Throwing a Frisbee" 11:10 ...That is got to be the best analogy ever when it comes to a driver swing. As a beginner, I would slice my tee shot over and over again. I know how to throw a frisbee with my left hand and my swing did not feel like anything like that. More like my left hand felt like I was throwing a frisbee into the ground. Now I understand completely what Alex is conveying. Not only does "throwing a frisbee" help with dropping into the slot, but it also gets the driver into that upward trajectory. The other amazing tip is the wrist angle of your left hand. It helps keep the forearms together at impact, which of course closes the face. Great video!
By far the best tutorial videos on TH-cam. I'm a new golfer and have been slicing like crazy. Up till now, the only thing that slightly corrected it was keeping driver more upright. You've a great, straightforward teaching style. I've watched a thousand instructional videos on TH-cam and yours are the easiest to understand. Great work. Thanks for the tips. I'll be recommending your videos to everybody. #100club
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant, I’m going to watch the video again, take more note, and take all you say to the range tomorrow evening, many thanks Darran
I have been a slicer for 25 years. At 60 years old Alex has changed my game. Added 20-30 yards on my tee shots and in much better position for my second shot. Now I need to watch more to fix my short game. I can't thank this man enough for making golf more fun as a senior. His fixes are simple to understand and help you avoid analysis paralysis. Great job Alex, wish I would have learned this stuff years ago.
@@AlexElliottGolf Thank you for making these videos. You have helped improve the game of golf for this Rochester, NY resident. I now have the privilege to play some of the best courses around. I recently landed a job at Monroe Golf Club, a private Country Club not far from Oak Hill Country Club. Since I can play for free on Mondays. Thanks to you I won't be embarrassing myself.😉
This is one of my favorite videos Alex. I was a slicer big time, time and again would try something new including some of these tip. This helps me understand my swing in total. Cheers, Rick
Bro! Thank you for that video! I watched it 2 nights ago, went to the range and only hit driver with no real success. watched your vid again, forgot about the shoulders pointing away from the target at release. Only had time to hit a few shots on the range before going to the course. I was not expecting much, almost zero practise. I was erratic, but I hit all time long drives on three holes (I've played this course over 200 times)! I can't wait to actually practise this!
Thank you Alex tried this out at the range yesterday and the course today helped me out unbelievably!! even golf mates were amazed I shared your video with them and they will follow for tips thanks again dude
Thank you very much. I had a lesson a few months ago to correct my slice… with the pro by my side I made major improvements. A few days, weeks, months later ALL GONE. This video could have easily been a recording of my session. These are the points I kept wishing I could listen to over and over. I know this will help in real time!
THANKS! Im 62 a 20 year slicer, nothing worked, Im not there yet! but closer than ever. Im in the pull shot area that you talked about. working on part 2 I think this may take me a bit longer to master but I am sure I will enjoy the process much better now that my slice is gone, still cant wait for that first draw!
the tee in the glove did it for me. it put lots of things in perspective.. that and a ridiculously strong grip.. my shots went right (I'm a lefty) consistently for once.. which means I'm still out to in, but club face is closed, so soon as i get in to out.. the shots will straighten out. thx a billion.
Definitely not new to golf but have always had a problem with slicing it, I feel like this is really going to help, gonna head to the range and practice.
I know this is an older video, but what a great reference to watch when thing go sideways! Fantastic. Really great video Alex. Keep up the great lessons. From Dieppe, New Brunswick, Canada
This breakdown makes a hell of a lot of sense Driving range after work for me tomorrow after work 🤞🏼 wish me luck This explanation may just be the revelation I've been crying out for Thanks as ever Alex 👌🏼 100club
Having watched this video, I applied Alex's method today whilst playing a round. All I can say is I played 18 holes 10 required driver. Every drive was straight, longest being 280 yds. 250 avg. I used to have a massive slice, not no more. Not saying it will work for everyone but it has worked for me. Many thanks alex
This is such a great video!!! I always had a good draw, then I started to take my club straight back and straight threw causing my ball to go straight and then as the ball started to come down the ball goes to the right ending into the trees! I had this thing that my club face must be square at in-pack! Thank you for all your great tutorials!! Regards from South Africa!! ⛳️🏌️♀️🥰
Winter golf is only available at 1 course in my area, and you bet your bottom dollar I play it. Hardly anyone plays the course, so I have it to myself to hit as many practice shots as possible. Love it!
@@tom_greenery Money is a good thing and I, unfortunately, don't make the rules. I love my 4 seasons as well. But... for the love of golf, I wish that was an option. My wife's family lives here and that's why we are here. Maybe someday when I'm old.
Alex!! your methods are working for me, thank you!!! fixing the slice right now, next I need to work on taking a divot and gaining more distance with my iron shots
This 100% works. From the last video about coming under with your right hand to grip the club works. I’ve never had a right to left ball flight with my driver. After watching that video and hitting the range, I played yesterday and hit 8/14 fairways. Going to take time to trust it fully but I am here to say it works. Great content again Alex.
Winter golf for me would include snowshoes so I have worked on a basement chipping net and some putting. Great ideas working on building the proper muscle memory to get rid of my slice. Thanks so much!,
#100 club great lesson again Alex. Winter golf is not to bad here in Sydne🇦🇺🇦🇺 can be cold in the morning but by 9am in the teens.. and no winter greens.
Alex….thanks! The easiest explanation on cause and correction I’ve found. I had a lesson and it wasn’t as easily understood as this short video. I may not correct the slice immediately but at least I have the understanding I need to progress.
I can follow this perfectly except on the downswing I tend to get too low and bottom out way back. Not always but frustrating when it happens. My difficulty is controlling my legs and knee bend. 🥴
At the range today and it worked Alex. Only problem was, I heard a massive “clunk” as the ball hit a tree at the far end of the range. 🤣🤣🤣Finally out drove the range.
I had this same problem, and the way I remedied it was to literally just focus on keeping my left leg (right handed player) straight. it meant that my knee still bent forward and allowed my hips to turn, but my knee didn't cave in and make me bottom out early. it also means that I wasn't overthinking any other part of the swing, meaning that, when my set up is correct, my swing was much more consistent in every other aspect.
Taking this to the range tonight! #100club Edit: Came back to say this worked really well. Establishing a secure, loose grip and making sure my right elbow dropped down helped a ton. Club path was consistently in to out, which I've hardly ever been able to do!
We can only play until end of october here in Ontario. And for me in particular, im not playing anymore until next year when spring returns. Thanks for the great video.
Great tip, playing this weekend and will hit the range before my round to start working on this slice of mine. will report back to next week with the results. Thanks again Alex for the tips and sharing your knowledge!
Winter golf - haha. I would have to dig down through 3 feet of snow to tee it up. Short golf season here - mid May to mid October at best. I basically have to start over every season. Shoot in the 90's in May to start the season and finish by shooting in the 70's in October. Thanks for the tips to fix a slice I just started to develop.
Thanks for these tips Alex. I'm using them on the course and was really happy with the new path of my club . It's coming on slowly but I'm getting there😎😎
Unfortunately not in the 100 club but that was a great video. I played today. I was slicing and drawing it all through the round. Maybe 2 decent drives in all. This im sure is going to help greatly alex👏👏
Appreciate the tips and am taking a couple of these to add to my own swing thoughts and setup - ai just have one question on the club face and address of club as I have been experimenting with holding driver around my belt buckle instead of thigh and club face doesnt look right at address - can you go into the ball positioning of left heel or slightly forward or back, along with hand position and club lean yes or no for driver especially when we are trying to hit upward
#100club I live in Michigan USA so we get snow all winter long so can’t play winter golf but local range has heated tees so will be practicing all winter long May go south for a golf trip will have to see
Winter golf? I'm totally in! Lower green fees, tee times available at great courses, and a lot more room to hit recovery shots through the trees; whats not to like?

why in the hell didnt you take golf lessons instead of slicing for 25 years? you should just give up the game and go bowling!!!
Yes I love winter golf !- I am a slicer who is slicing less and less !- thanks to your tutorials !
😁
This is one of my favorite videos Alex. I was a slicer big time, time and again would try something new including some of these tip. This helps me understand my swing in total. Cheers, Rick
It's an older video. I know. But I have to say step 4 and 5 did it for me... Thumbs up, thank you Alex.
Thank you I will try that tomorrow
This is a great video to help slicers have an actual visual swing thought that works.
You sir are a top instructor. Thank you so much answers to every question I had.
Any time
Excellent NOT TOO LONG explanation on what to work on to "groove my swing not to slice"!
It’s crazy. Every video you put out helps. Thank you.
You fixed my slice!
Step 1 did it for me.
Thank you!
Your videos are easily the best out there. Please move to Canada so I can learn from you in person lol!

Great vid. All parts are so important. Well done.
Great video thanks for all your help would love to see you play some holes and talk us through course management
I did these tips at the range last night, was spot on
Danny, Thank you for the lesson I am now off to the Range to practice that move and lock it in!
You done it Sir. The inside out shot solved it simply.
Just like a cut shot in Cricket.
Thank you.
Thank you Alex tried this out at the range yesterday and the course today helped me out unbelievably!! even golf mates were amazed I shared your video with them and they will follow for tips thanks again dude

Watching a bit of back catalogue is this your longest "golf tip" very good indeed, knew the reversing the loop videos just far too simple,thanks
So good commented the same twice😅😅😅😅😅
Thank you so much SIR!!! Today I only hit one slice much appreciated
Best lesson thus far I've learned from you.
the tee in the glove did it for me. it put lots of things in perspective.. that and a ridiculously strong grip.. my shots went right (I'm a lefty) consistently for once.. which means I'm still out to in, but club face is closed, so soon as i get in to out.. the shots will straighten out. thx a billion.
Yes, My course takes the winter weather well.
a lot of good check points and swing thoughts to build from step 1 to the final swing. great video, thank you.
Definitely not new to golf but have always had a problem with slicing it, I feel like this is really going to help, gonna head to the range and practice.
probably the best explanation in the whole internet.. thx
Thank you James!! Please share the video if you can

Sw FL here all year round golf if you can afford it. In the winter rates almost triple
@@tom_greenery The price I pay for living in New York.

@@extrememetaldrummer1 I do miss the seasons for sure. I want to move to North Central Georgia.
Winter golf in MN consists of indoor lessons so we are good to go in spring!
Alex!! your methods are working for me, thank you!!! fixing the slice right now, next I need to work on taking a divot and gaining more distance with my iron shots
so good to hear!
Excellent driver tutorial, well done Alex

I love winter golf! Less people on the course and a better chance to spend time working on changes for the next season!
#100 club great lesson again Alex. Winter golf is not to bad here in Sydne🇦🇺🇦🇺 can be cold in the morning but by 9am in the teens.. and no winter greens.
That's good shit bro...Thanks!!!
This is all I need and can have a really decent game. Hoping/praying this works lol
Alex….thanks!

Thank you Rowan! How are you irons th-cam.com/video/RRCy1MccHdk/w-d-xo.html
Great video Alex, will be taking this to the range tomorrow
let me know how you get on pal
I was able to play winter golf when I lived in Colorado. Don't have the same opportunity in Minnesota
Really helped. Cheers. Great channel
Could have used this today! Had fun though. Our season is soon coming to an end. Will have to see what might be open for indoor golf.
I can follow this perfectly except on the downswing I tend to get too low and bottom out way back. Not always but frustrating when it happens. My difficulty is controlling my legs and knee bend. 🥴

I play winter golf, can’t say it’s particularly enjoyable but it keeps the swing going, good for practicing and keeps the weight down!!
Fixed my slice once I figured out to try to hit a nice clean cover drive 🏏
I live in Florida, always play in the winter !😄 Thanks for years tip. Waiting for you to demo the new king tecs for 2022 when they come out !🤞
Taking this to the range tonight! #100club
Edit: Came back to say this worked really well. Establishing a secure, loose grip and making sure my right elbow dropped down helped a ton. Club path was consistently in to out, which I've hardly ever been able to do!
100Club ~ Great I have been doing it wrong! Thanks for you well instructed video.
Great video Alex, can't wait to try these simple steps next time at the range.
I'm moving to Naples, Florida next month so I'll definitely be playing "Winter Golf".
Hey thankiuu Alex !
Hi Alex, yes we play all year round.
will try this out on the course
great stuff
We can only play until end of october here in Ontario. And for me in particular, im not playing anymore until next year when spring returns. Thanks for the great video.

Phoenix.:) perfect golf weather.
Great video / great explanation. Thx
Great video!
Worked for me. Was getting so frustrated with slicing but now I'm starting to hit it straighter....and longer! Thank you
Love that Mark please share if you can
Really like this guy
thank you!
🇦🇺Goulburn NSW, yes you have to be able to play winter golf.
I tried this on the range today and guess what? It worked! Hope that I can put it into practice, out on the course tomorrow.
Excellent!
Love the videos
Great tips Alex, get me into that #100 my course is parkland in North West England. Gets very wet in ❄️
I have a tendency to hook. And I generally hit line drives when I hit it straight. Trying to figure out how to elevate my ball more
I love it
Unfortunately not in the 100 club but that was a great video. I played today. I was slicing and drawing it all through the round. Maybe 2 decent drives in all. This im sure is going to help greatly alex👏👏
100club. Great lesson Alex. Thank you.
Great video. Just make sure I'm in for the #100 club
Great video Alex 👍🏼
Thanks Alex, would you be able to do a video on how to purposely hit a fade using an iron ?
love this!

What about the palm tree club draw some weekend back? No word of that contest yet even though it was only a weekly contest
This was announced across my socials 😁
