    Thank you, thank you, thank you…..
    After using your techniques in this video, my driver slice has dramatically improved to the extent that I’m no longer in the rough or out of bounds 😃
    Having the confidence on the tee box and Hitting the fairways with my driver every time has reduced my handicap and made me fall in love with the game again.
    Thank you again for these simple but very effective techniques and keep up the good work with these videos 😊

    I've lost my golf swing 😢 and to make things worse I'm a high handicapper. I've been watching so many videos trying to figure out what I am doing wrong? Yours is the first video that has been so helpful. I know now that I have really screwed up my grip trying to over correct. I can't wait to hit my driver with my correct grip and back to the basic fundamentals of the right alignment. 😊. Thank you for your easy to understand instructions.

    Thanks again Georgia, i have taken such a lot from this video, I recently had a new driver (fitted) and these videos have been essential viewing for me.
    I had to smile when you did the demo at the end, ball straight down the middle of what looked like a narrow fairway. Brilliant.

    Good video. With my transition, at the top of my backswing I initiate a slight shift of weight from the inside of my trail foot to my lead side. Combined with a “feel” that my lead (left) hip is rotating around/back/up similar to where my trail (right) hip was - I don’t think about the trail hip at all, I just let it flow. If you place an alignment stick at approximately 45 degrees from the tee/ball it provides a good guide to gauge if your swing is on the correct in-to-out path. When I took up golf, for the first 12 months I had a lot of problems with a slice (all clubs) and it had nothing to do with swing path. I thought I had a text book perfect neutral grip, it looked like I did, but didn’t. I had both my thumbs running down the centre of the grip/shaft. No one told me, and very few teach this, but unless your left thumb falls to the right side of the centre of the grip, and the right thumb falls to the left side of the centre of the grip when you grip the club with a neutral grip, your club face can involuntarily open when you strike the ball. Try this - take a neutral grip of the club (thumbs aligned down the centre of the grip. Extend your arms naturally straight out in front, then extend them a little further (which simulates extension on ball strike) and the club face will open, significantly. Do the same exercise again with the thumbs left to right etc on the grip and the club face will not move - ever

    In golf, the body always tries to restore equilibrium. Make backswing too steep, downswing will be too flat and vice versa. Lean too far back in backswing, body will go too forward during downswing and vice versa. Stand too near/low in backswing, body will stand up during downswing and vice versa. Same goes for every movement.

    My tip for the grip, as a terrible golfer, is to take your grip, close your eyes, relax so that the grip feels neutral and then look and see if the club face is square. Adjust your grip until you can repeat the process and the club stays square.

  • @craiganderson-jones4916
    @craiganderson-jones4916 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Hmm, there are some key things such as distance from the ball (a major struggle for me as too close means you struggle to get the hips out of the way, too far and your reaching and more likely to slice etc.) and position of where ball, where the end of club is pointing at address (pointing too high will cause issues, as well as pointing too low), elbows as well - how they point.
    Maybe this is why im shite - overthinking 😂
