No offense to Rick Shiels but we gotta get our boy Danny past that 1 million subs. He's consistently delivering quality instruction delivered in an concise easy to digest manner. Stuff you can remember and take straight to the range or course to work on.
This little freaky and implausible move has given me a feeling of using the ground I never believed possible. As with most things related to golf, everything ends up feeling the opposite of what it appears to be. Keep it up, Danny. You are my number one TH-camr for golf-related content.
I tried out your feet together drill with my irons and driver. Worked great with my irons from short to hybrids. Driver ,- I struggled a bit. But overall I was making better contact. Thanks a bunch!!
Danny I went to the driving range today and worked on tempo moving my feet , rocking myself and hitting easy shots. The ball rocketed off all my clubs straight as an arrow. It was the best practice I ever had using all the irons and my hybrid. I was taking such an easy swing and relaxing drills before the shot. Your relax routine really works Danny and hitting easy shots Feeling good where I am heading
@@DanielMaude No we really appreciate you. Its unbelievably expensive to get quality instruction at least here in the USA and I feel I learn more from your short videos than I have from hour long in person instruction sessions.
I love your passion to teach, it’s almost you can’t wait to share your lessons, great stuff as usual and we are all grateful for this because we all can’t play at the moment.
This is a great drill that I’ve been employing for a couple of months with very good results. My ball-striking has improved and my standard flight is now a nice draw. The other advantage is that thinking only about the movement of my heels is a great, simple swing thought. Thanks Danny you’re a terrific teacher.
I’ve been playing for 70 years at a fairly high level and consider myself a student of the game. I never heard of this little move/feel. I took it to the range yesterday, and literally started hitting my pitching wedge 15 yards further with a much better strike, not sure I can even explain it to my golfing buddies - - or if I should! Thank you Danny, your lessons have been really interesting and entertaining. You have a very nice way and style about you. I love your video’s. Again, Thank you very much.
If they only knew how many well known top 100 instructors I've seen and money spent. Started watching Dan the man and found out that the joke was on me. You would think one instructor would tell me I was swaying off the ball. One! The light bulb started to go off with your video of an effortless swing, the one where you met up with your dad and saw him hitting the best that he has at an older age. The tip on rocking the heels front and back was genius. I was always chasing the swing when I was always sound except for that sway. My golf game has improved in every area and continues to improve with every video that I watch of yours. The putting videos are also golden. Thanks for all you do Danny! Keep up the great work, your teachings really had an impact on my golf game and enjoyment of this great game that I love so much!
Had a similar experience when he described the hip motion not as a turn but a straight motion. Now instead of a sway as my trail leg straightens the weight moves onto my lead leg at the transition. Rory is obviously moving his weight to his front foot while his heel is still slightly off the ground and his heel moves forward
Although it is early days, this drill has given me hope after years of golfing disasters. I have been pushing instead of pulling! I used to have a good long game but abismal short game, and trying to develop my short game, reduced my long game to being abismal as I grew older (75) and less agile. Just going through this drill has made everything much more effortless, even the short game, and I hope I can get back to enjoying playing. I don't need to be good, I just want to stop embarrasing mysellf. Thanks.
First feeling upon trying this was....this can't be right! But I stuck with it and it turned out to be the single most useful single tip I've come across. Thank You!
I have been watching your videos and had watched your video on the “Best Rotation Drill For Your Backswing and Downswing - It’s Super Simply”. That video worked miracles but i was still not consistent. Than I watched this video and the light came on. At first I could not feel what you where trying to describe. But I finally figured it out. It sure has made a difference to my downswing. I have had lesson in the past and no one has every explained the golf swing like you have. You have made so easy to learn and understand. Thank you for this information.
One of the best videos all together. Danny explains it with focus on the heels; if you want to look at it with focus on the forefoot (contact point with the ground) it would be something like this: When the bones of the left big toe push COUNTERCLOCKWISE, the pelvis turns CLOCKWISE. When the bones of the right big toe push CLOCKWISE, the pelvis turns COUNTERCLOCKWISE. (Proof: standing on ice, the feet would slip in the direction of the push and the pelvis would stay square). The pressure feeling on the bones of the big toe resembles the quarter turn to the right(left toe push)/left(right toe push) when starting to walk in that direction(right/left). When the pelvis reaches its max rotation of the backswing, inertia of mass causes the upper body/ club head to continue on its path to the complete reverse at the top. At that time you start pushing your right foot (pressure on the inside of the bones of right big toe) CLOCKWISE, bringing the pelvis counterclockwise back to the target line. That move does 'not wait for the club head', let it finish its travel (waist must be kept flexible). This creates the separation between pelvis position and club head. At this point the CLOCKWISE push has brought your pelvis COUNTERCLOCKWISE back in line with the target. You squat and push the the right foot-bones-big-toe explosively CLOCKWISE. This whips your pelvis around to face the target. This motion of the feet is joined by the upwards jump: at that point the bones of the right toe push initially CLOCKWISE, the bones or left toe COUNTERCLOCKWISE; this snaps both femurs into endorotation when the weight comes off the feet (supporting the jump) and the knees snap together. Conclusion: control of the swing with the bones of your big toes causes the swing to be in proper sequence. With a passive upper body, this will create the proper separation and the path will consequently be in-to-out.
Coming up to the 1/2 million subscriber mark. 1 upload per week, no reviews, no vlogs just brilliant coaching. Any more videos like this you will smash through that barrier very soon. Thank you.
@@DanielMaude at Canterbury? I've got to catch up on your videos this week. It was depressing me not being able to try out the advice on course. I've booked the 29th off and playing two rounds.
Without a doubt the most underrated aspect of the golf swing. Being a self learner myself , I have looked all over the internet for some “feelings” that were easy and repeatable , this is BY FAR the best I have encountered! keep up the good work
Excellence is par fo your instructing Danny,I have only been playing a couple of years and during my first summer was able to strike my irons very well for a beginner but that changed when playing partners kept telling me I had too much weight on my front foot at the top of my swing causing my front knee to go forward as the club reached the top. I listened,and changed to how they felt my weight should be moving and proceeded to play terrible golf for months.something clicked after one of your lessons a couple of weeks ago,and thankfully I returned to my old ways . Now hitting irons sweetly again.thanks so much Danny.
This makes so much sense for me. Years ago I was told to "fire your hips". But that results exactly in the "weak position" you describe. Fire the right hip (righthand player) forward and your heals turn backward in response. But if you move your hips just a bit sideways towards the target just before/during the downswing, your heals feel like they are towards the target. Keep on posting like that, this helps so much...
Just ran across this yesterday and tried it. Great lesson Mr. Maude! So many benefits from this feel drill. And my lower back .. Thanks You! I’m an old duffer--62. Super Job! Appreciate your instruction.
Great lessons Danny. I can see my faults in some of these videos and the lessons are definitely helping. Muscle memory is a hard pattern to break until you feel the difference and then stick with it. Thanks for simplifying things.
having been a left to right player for years i have never had anyone of the pro,s at any of the clubs that i was a member of, mentioned this movement at any time inall the years that i have been playing explained this easy drill, today i will be at my club to work on this simple movement and see for myself if i can get out of this slice which i have had over the years thank you danny.
Love your videos and have learned a lot. Question about this video. It seems to be the opposite of turning the jam jar feeling. Can you clear this up for me? Thanks.
This is GENIUS !!! So happy I found Danny's videos. It's much more than subtle on the downswing. Look at Rory. He visibly moves his lead heal at least an inch. Now take a look at Bubba Watson's heal movement. It's ridiculous lol !!
Danny, this video/swing thought was incredible. It was the answer to my out to in, over the top swing fault. I have been working on trying to fix my swing path for years, searching for the answer and this drill completely made sense and immediately corrected it!
Been practicing using the Down Under Board, as my footwork was sloppy. That gave me ten yards on my irons as I stayed centered and did not sway off the ball. It also helped with early extension. The instructional video with the board really didn't explain the why's of how it works very well. So I hit the net on your early extension videos, which helped me understand the footwork aspect much better. Then I came across this puppy. This may add up to another ten yards. 8 iron carry for me has gone up from 140 to close to 150 with the board. I have a tendency for a pull as my miss large due to a lack of rotation. Using these two things, my rotation is so much more effective in translating into better contact and smash factor. Just hit a few balls on SkyTrak and this is sick awesome ! Ball is starting to the right of the target line with a draw. Carry is approaching 160. P.S. Shiels is good, but you are a little better. :-O
I’ve followed and watched so many other channels, but Danny is by far the best teacher, coach and instructor in the game. No offense to RS, Top Speed, Grant, and the single plane swing
You are ABSOLUTLEY RIGHT Gregory. The "mind visual" thoughts he's giving us are so valuable. My thought here is back swing--left toes to right heal (left heal actually comes up!), down swing is left heal GOES BACK DOWN, weight in right heal goes to right toes into left heal!!! This felt so great!
Been watching your videos for 3 months and have gotten my handicap down from 21 to 15. Shot my lowest round ever on Monday with an 80. Thanks so much!!!
Another excellent input from Danny. What sets you apart is you haven't gone down the easy clickbait route of endlessly reviewing new club releases ,or trying to sell their own merchandise like other alleged pro's. But instead you unselfishly continually provide quality content Bravo Danny.
This winter I watched Rotary Swing on TH-cam and for the first time really dug into my swing and transformed it, but what you covered in this video was something I still wasn't doing correctly. I've integrated this movement into my new swing and it feels even better. I can't wait to get out to the course. I've only been hitting balls into a net in my detached garage, so who knows, but I think this year will be a breakthrough year for me! Thanks for this great video, it will help big time!
I just love this. Not had a chance to hit balls yet due to UK COVID lockdown but my practice swings with this in my garden seem really good - will be trying this for sure. THANKS!!!!!
I feel like I need to pay you for this video. I can't thank you enough. Started 3 months ago, getting lessons. Minor game changers here and there.... But this, unreal. At golftec I usually wiff 4/10 shots or 8-9/20 shots to green. After trying this out in my backyard no ball, I felt like my swing felt clean. Next day I go to Golftec and hit 9/10 And 17/20 shots to green... Omg.
I read you should pick one TH-cam channel only when working on your swing. Your videos make sense to me and help me a lot. Made the mistake this week of watching someone else’s online lesson and foolishly modified my swing. Made a mess of it until I reverted back and did some Danny Maude drills. Your videos are excellent. Thank you.
This maybe the best tip I've ever seen. I didn't realize it but I was the first pattern trying to rotate through my pelvis. After changing, I have shaft lean and much more power without artificially brining my hands inside. Thanks Danny
I watch a lot of golf instruction videos from many different people and it’s always the same stuff over and over but this is the first time I’ve ever heard about this heel motion and watching the video of Rory was amazing. This is great stuff Danny.
When I read Ben Hogans The Modern Fundamentals of Golf, he writes "the downswing starts from the ground up". I was never able to feel this in my swing until today. Thank you Danny.
Danny, very similar to what I've been doing for long time now.. torquring ball (not toes) of right foot clockwise into the ground during downswing until P5, P6 coulped with eversion of right leg/foot. Adds power and consistency.
OMG! This just crystallized for me, "use the ground"!! Girlfriend got me a Down Under Board for Xmas, but this "feel" is even better !!(sorry, honey). I think doing this barefoot will really help groove the move and feel. I think this is a great "first move" to start my downswing (if you agree) I'll be working on this for the next few days while I'm snowed in...
New to the channel but recently subscribed and i have to say your golf instruction is by far the best on YT. Can you give some advice for senior golfers im 64 and have issues turning....im in decent shape and exercise regularly
Wow! This is exactly what I needed to see and hear in my golf practice! I got one of those “Accustriike” practice mats. The one that shows where and how you are striking the ball. Well, I discovered that time after time I am striking well behind the ball and coming across the ball . Which really explains my lack of power and control. I’m all over this new swing drill. I’ll bet I will be shaving a few more strokes off my score. Definitely will be having much more fun! Thanks Danny! You’re enthusiasm and knowledge is priceless!
this looked daft so I tried it…..works a treat. I don’t come over the top but I don’t transition as well as I could. Drill felt good looking forward to hitting the range with it.
Oh yeah, Danny has some of the absolute best videos on golf out there. You made a good choice coming here. Oh weird, I had to edit to say that I just noticed your name is also mine. Lol.
@@dementus420 thanks!! I am very tall and have always come over the top and some of the videos just make it so simple! Really wish I could go and actually hit a golf ball to try some! This video clicked (as in made complete sense) straight away, also one on keeping the right shoulder back on the downswing really clicked too. When it’s so simply explained it annoys me I haven’t done any of this sooner!! 😂😂
Hi danny i took this tip on the driver swing last weekend, to my local club to see if it could improve my swing, well i do see an improvement, im not pushing it to the left as much. I spent 3 days last week working on this, and i find ithas helped me alot, an easy drill to remember which i will be putting a lot of time on this swing tip, also i would like to thank you for showing this easy tip.
Hi Danny. I bought a couple of cheap waist twist boards which really got me used to the feel. Your drill really reinforces the feel which I can more readily take to the course. Just hit a few balls into the net and whow. This is the year I am not going to be hitting the ball with my weight in my trail leg !!! Thanks and as ever stay safe
Danny when it goes bad my friends call me Dr. Lunge. I've seen the reason for the nickname in videos many times. Would this be your best video to stop coming over the top or is there another I can use to practice when I'm not on the course? Your the best bar none, Dr. Lunge
Always appreciate the detail you put out. I was feeling like I was starting to control my irons and finally driver.... then I started slicing hard again but having great contact. This is my next drill without question!
Already been practising this in the lounge with the TV remote as a club and I think it may help my over the top swing as well as increase power. Can’t wait to be able to try it out on the golf course or the driving range. Thanks Danny for another great video, really enjoy my Saturday morning golf lessons before the kids get up!
"DannyDay"; good one, Roli Rivelino!! This tip is definitely a new one for me, but really makes a lot of sense. And, yes, I need to change this as well. WOW!!! Hope all of you, in the Father Land, are coping with the lockdown (again). Cheers, Danny.
I've tried a lot of drills to fix over the top, some help for a while then it always seems to come back. This is a great drill that really helped me, and I feel like it will be easy to repeat on the course.... Look forward to watching your other tips!
You never ceases to amaze me with the things you come up with. Keep on helping us poor hackers. I'm running out of time to get this right. Thanx to you maybe there's still hope.
I was a little puzzled with this exercise and finally it's awesome. It works for me but the reason could be that it reminds me shawn clement tutorial... Should it require to break down into more steps? I don’t know.. you have a gift to make it simple. thank you anyway !
No offense to Rick Shiels but we gotta get our boy Danny past that 1 million subs. He's consistently delivering quality instruction delivered in an concise easy to digest manner. Stuff you can remember and take straight to the range or course to work on.

Made the mistake this week of watching someone else’s online lesson and foolishly modified my swing. Made a mess of it until I reverted back and did some Danny Maude drills. Your videos are excellent. Thank you.
Very kind of you to say David, really appreciate it
This maybe the best tip I've ever seen. I didn't realize it but I was the first pattern trying to rotate through my pelvis. After changing, I have shaft lean and much more power without artificially brining my hands inside.
Thanks Danny
You are very welcome
I watch a lot of golf instruction videos from many different people and it’s always the same stuff over and over but this is the first time I’ve ever heard about this heel motion and watching the video of Rory was amazing. This is great stuff Danny.
Thank you, it really sets up the downswing 👍
I really like your manner Danny. Just the way you come across. You seem kind and friendly.
Thank you Anshuman, really appreciate you taking the time to feedback
Again, another AWESOME vid...we gotta get to 1 mill subs! Nobody explains these kind of things in a better way, or with such enthusiasm. Congratz!
Thanks so much for the support Alfredo
Quite a brilliant tip, so clearly explained.
Glad it was helpful!
Another great video Danny. Thanks so much. Best part of my day.
My pleasure Gary, all the best for the weekend
This is a thing I've never seen. Thanks Danny !
Amazing isn’t, it can literally change your entire swing 😁
This is freakin' brilliant. Every single person can incorporate this, and it can change their results instantly. Nice!
You are very welcome
When I read Ben Hogans The Modern Fundamentals of Golf, he writes "the downswing starts from the ground up". I was never able to feel this in my swing until today. Thank you Danny.
You are very welcome James, all the best
This got my swing to finally click this and the 3 to 9 drill to remind myself the feeling 100 and 1 let’s go!!!
That’s awesome to hear Ryan
Hi Danny you are one of the only professional golf coaches that teaches static and dynamic positions
Great lesson ✌️
I've stopped calling it Saturday, it's Dannyday now.
Awwww, love my Saturday mornings too
Get up, grab a cup of coffee and click start on the video is my Saturday routine
@@edbeshel1681 love it 🙏
Never seen this addressed so clearly before, Danny. Can't wait to work on it. Thanks!
Enjoy Mike, all the best
Danny, very similar to what I've been doing for long time now.. torquring ball (not toes) of right foot clockwise into the ground during downswing until P5, P6 coulped with eversion of right leg/foot. Adds power and consistency.
OMG! This just crystallized for me, "use the ground"!! Girlfriend got me a Down Under Board for Xmas, but this "feel" is even better !!(sorry, honey). I think doing this barefoot will really help groove the move and feel. I think this is a great "first move" to start my downswing (if you agree) I'll be working on this for the next few days while I'm snowed in...
Thanks again Danny.This focus on feet and weight shift is really helpful.
That's exactly what I was doing in the downswing and not realizing it. Thanks for your help 👍. Awesome job.
You are so welcome!
I am picturing record size divots for me. I cant wait. Great observation on Rory!
Damn this is pure magic I just tried this drill and my ball striking got instantly better. Thank you very much 👌
Great video. I have early extension issues and hoping this will help with getting the ground force to the left side!
Love to hear how you get on
Easy as that... another lesson to incorporate. Can’t wait to test it. Thank you buddy, stay healthy
And you Rick, snow due here today
Super saturday tip, good biomechanics to get the feel and record it, thanks Danny!
My pleasure Willy, all the best
New to the channel but recently subscribed and i have to say your golf instruction is by far the best on YT. Can you give some advice for senior golfers im 64 and have issues turning....im in decent shape and exercise regularly
Great golf lesson Danny, makes perfect sense to try and work your ankles like that.
Absolutely 👍
Wow! This is exactly what I needed to see and hear in my golf practice! I got one of those “Accustriike” practice mats. The one that shows where and how you are striking the ball. Well, I discovered that time after time I am striking well behind the ball and coming across the ball . Which really explains my lack of power and control. I’m all over this new swing drill. I’ll bet I will be shaving a few more strokes off my score. Definitely will be having much more fun! Thanks Danny! You’re enthusiasm and knowledge is priceless!
You are very welcome David, thanks for all your support
Top Tips on a Saturday morning as always Danny! as soon as it stops snowing I will be outside trying this
Just seen the pictures up north, wish we had snow here, the kids would love it
this looked daft so I tried it…..works a treat. I don’t come over the top but I don’t transition as well as I could. Drill felt good looking forward to hitting the range with it.
Great Denny...this makes a lot
of sense. .
Yet more great insight, clear instruction. and easily applicable practice. Thanks once again, Danny- you nail it every time.
really kind thank you
This tip was absolutely magical. My swing had fallen apart and was in a really bad spot. This fixed the swing and started adding some extra distance.
That’s so good to hear Mike
New to the channel, but I’m loving the videos!! Thank you!
Welcome to the channel Oliver, great to have you here
Oh yeah, Danny has some of the absolute best videos on golf out there. You made a good choice coming here. Oh weird, I had to edit to say that I just noticed your name is also mine. Lol.
@@dementus420 thanks!! I am very tall and have always come over the top and some of the videos just make it so simple!
Really wish I could go and actually hit a golf ball to try some!
This video clicked (as in made complete sense) straight away, also one on keeping the right shoulder back on the downswing really clicked too.
When it’s so simply explained it annoys me I haven’t done any of this sooner!! 😂😂
Grate video ... I am calling this my slalom skiing drill! Should help with weight and turn improvement.
Hi danny i took this tip on the driver swing last weekend, to my local club to see if it could improve my swing, well i do see an improvement, im not pushing it to the left as much. I spent 3 days last week working on this, and i find ithas helped me alot, an easy drill to remember which i will be putting a lot of time on this swing tip, also i would like to thank you for showing this easy tip.
You are very welcome Paul, thanks for taking the time to share your results
Hi Danny. I bought a couple of cheap waist twist boards which really got me used to the feel. Your drill really reinforces the feel which I can more readily take to the course. Just hit a few balls into the net and whow. This is the year I am not going to be hitting the ball with my weight in my trail leg !!! Thanks and as ever stay safe
All the best David 👍
great tips improving my game big time thanx
Love your lessons and your enthusiasm Danny and you never over complicate things stay well 👍
And you Dave, what’s happening at Liverpool FC??
@@DanielMaude think they need a little bit of Danny's enthusiasm and passion 😂👍
Danny when it goes bad my friends call me Dr. Lunge. I've seen the reason for the nickname in videos many times. Would this be your best video to stop coming over the top or is there another I can use to practice when I'm not on the course? Your the best bar none, Dr. Lunge
Always appreciate the detail you put out. I was feeling like I was starting to control my irons and finally driver.... then I started slicing hard again but having great contact. This is my next drill without question!
That’s great Joe, all the very best
Already been practising this in the lounge with the TV remote as a club and I think it may help my over the top swing as well as increase power. Can’t wait to be able to try it out on the golf course or the driving range. Thanks Danny for another great video, really enjoy my Saturday morning golf lessons before the kids get up!
Great to have you here Tom, I wish my kids were still in bed...they’ve already had breakfast and are asking me what We are going to next 😁
@@DanielMaude haha good luck!
Danny, you have done wonders for my game, I am having trouble jiving this motion with the twist the jar cover
Another great drill tip Danny, will practice this in my garden in Thailand tomorrow.
All the best Johnny, let me know how it goes
"DannyDay"; good one, Roli Rivelino!! This tip is definitely a new one for me, but really makes a lot of sense. And, yes, I need to change this as well. WOW!!! Hope all of you, in the Father Land, are coping with the lockdown (again). Cheers, Danny.
Doing ok Bill, missing family and friends
I've tried a lot of drills to fix over the top, some help for a while then it always seems to come back. This is a great drill that really helped me, and I feel like it will be easy to repeat on the course.... Look forward to watching your other tips!
That’s great really happy to help
Danny thank you for the magic drill, worked perfectly!
No problem Carney 😁
Great Danny usually go through this once or twice a year . Then go back to normal. Thank you
Always worth a little refresher
You never ceases to amaze me with the things you come up with. Keep on helping us poor hackers. I'm running out of time to get this right. Thanx to you maybe there's still hope.
All the best Joseph
Wow... changes in perspective!! Makes ton of sense.. ! Thank you Danny.
My pleasure Andrew, all the best
I was a little puzzled with this exercise and finally it's awesome. It works for me but the reason could be that it reminds me shawn clement tutorial... Should it require to break down into more steps? I don’t know.. you have a gift to make it simple. thank you anyway !
Nobody can explain it like you sir!
Thanks for the support Hung
This is genius. Foot work is everything in Golf. Thank you. Also your 101 tempo exercise was a huge help to me
That’s great Lisa, thanks for taking the time to feedback
Great drill. From lockdown in sunny Cyprus
All the best Roberta
It took me a minute or two but I got it, this will help my intermitted slice, yet another lesson to take to the course once we can play again.
I have never seen this concept explained before, excellent tutorial
Hope it helps Clive, all the best
Great drill Danny..Perfect season to practice at home!! Merci
