Hi everyone, hope you enjoyed today’s! Who enjoyed the 3 course meal analogy? Be sure to like the video and subscribe to the channel 😁
This is perfect for your average golfer! It’s simple, factually correct & easy to understand. There are so many terrible coaches who preach messages that are completely false. The world is a better place with you coaching
Can’t speak for other coaches but I do share your frustrations
Best video I’ve seen on the downswing. Nothing complicated. None of that leave your hands up & turn rubbish (we all know the coach I’m talking about)
Thank you!
Giles, you have shown me exactly what I’m doing wrong in this video and how to make it right. I went out and practiced bringing my hands down as fast as possible, but keeping the club head pointing up like really over-exaggerate the angle, three times before I hit the ball. And it worked. I really feel like I’m whipping the club now. I’m hitting the ball farther than ever with less effort.
Best instructor on TH-cam 👍
I don’t know how it happens but I have been struggling as of late and Bam 💥 My Sequencing was off ! I feel great thanks again !
Appreciate that! I hope this video helps!!!
Thank you, Giles, for another great lesson - this is probably your best yet. In the past I have hit inconsistent shots when trying to pull my arms down faster. When I follow the sequence in this video, the swing feels really great (&different) and I seem to have more space to fully release the club with more arm extension.
Plus most of have swing thoughts while playing, and you really make things simple enough to use these during a round.
Question: I assume you can follow this sequence in hitting less that full wedge shots?
You 100% will have more room to release the club. Thank you so much!
Yes the same sequencing applies just in lesser amounts
I like the idea Giles of "Sequencing" the golf swing! Playing by "rote" is fine if one plays as much golf as a PGA player does. If not, then the average golfer needs a thought process that they have to adhere to! And, what better way than to have a "sequencing thought" that you explained in this video!
Exactly and sequencing becomes so important to ensure this game is easier for you
Something I didn’t mention is pulling the arms down is shallowing the club. You don’t need to do these CRAZY shallowing moves as the best players DON’T do that 😁
Excellent video. That clears up something I’m doing wrong. I’ve been trying to rotate faster which is making my arm position even worse. So what I need to do is pull my arms down first and then I can rotate as fast as I want. Also, thanks for the slow motion segment. I like to see the actual ball hitting swing but it needs to be slowed down so I can figure it out.
Rotation is only helpful when the arms/club is infront of the right hip
Top class information!!!👏🏼👍🏼
Thank you! 👍
Brilliant video, Exactly what I needed to correctly sequence my swing!
Amazing! I hope this helps you play better golf
Great lesson and content! I'm very impressed with your approach to teaching, which avoids or sometimes refutes a lot of the "trendy" golf buzz words which often prove to be a rabbit hole that can waste a lot of time. (e.g. obsessing over side bend and club shallowing or wrist loading etc etc). Hopefully a lot of those things are taken care of by good sequencing, or at least shouldn't be obsessed over until we can demonstrate good sequencing :)
Exactly that! I base all of my coaching philosophies and principles off things that are measured and proven by fact. if we can’t measure it and prove it then I’m not going to teach it. I do have a video coming out on shallowing which will be really interesting and simplifies it down
That's 1 of best videos I have ever seen. Tks for sharing.. Will be saving this video and trying this out. 👍🏻
Awesome! Thank you!
Simple explanation, I’ll try it next time in the range.
It was a game changer for me so hopefully it helps you!
Good one. What is your head doing during these other motions?
Great question! It’s works down and towards the target slightly in transition and then as you turn start to push up it stays in the same spot or backs up slightly
Love the three meal analogy.
Glad you enjoyed it Thomas!
Thank you sir. This makes SOOOOO much sense as to what I have been thinking lately as I always habitually rotate before I take a sip 😂
Great information. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much!
I gotta get this right, this is gonna help. thnx.
I really hope this helps you as this is crucial!
Cant wait
Hope you enjoy it!
Hey how do you lower launch angle at impact? I feel like I get enough forward shaft lean but when I compare my numbers on a 9 iron for example to the tour pro average it's like a 6-10 degree difference. Tour average being 20.
3 main factors are angle of attack, shaft lean & the clubs you’re using.
If you’re not getting enough shaft lean then either your face is open or you’re casting
If you think your shaft lean & angle of attack is good then getting fit for the right shafts will lower your flight
My best striking comes from taking my time at the top and moving laterally. If I go too fast from top and rotate anything can happen!
The shifting before turning is that illusion of taking your time at the top but that’s where you need to get your hands down in front of you so then you can put the afterburners on
Recentering - Dropping arms and rotation. Agree on recentering but the most important aspect of the down swing that you clearly do and 100% of all Tour Pro's do that is not talked about - like it is a secret is FLOAT LOAD or at P4 to P4.5 and before P5 you load the wrists to the most angle you can - more is good. Because at P6 your hands should be on your trail thigh and the club should be horizontal to the ground. 95% of golfer or most everyone this is happening at well before P6 more like P5 and this is why most golfers can't even carry a drive 200 yards. Sequencing and proper sequencing is great but your sequencing can suck and if you really can Float Load it or better yet sequence the proper Float Load. You need to be teaching how to actually be loading the wrists coming down and then you would be helping people.
When we measure float load between P4 and P5 is actually the sudden acceleration of the hands so again it’s a feeling but it’s not real
It’s been termed a float load because that’s the perception it gives when you pull the handle fast. Again this is not my opinion this is what we’ve measured and found as fact 😁
Number one correlation between how far I go for hits it is there hand speeded in the downswing as well. It’s by far the biggest correlation we have and the only way you can increase it is by pulling the hands harder. Again this is all stuff we can prove
