- Struggling with stalling out and not rotating through impact. Chances are there is a root cause reason as to why you can't do this. If that is the case then you MUST fix that first before you can learn to rotate correctly. In this video I run through the 3 most common root causes I see and how to fix them.

Found your channel occasionally by browsing those random shorts. Id love to let you know that i feel ur videos are most useful among these youtubers I've been followed and watching for years. Not just telling where the positions should be, but pointing out the mistakes that we might have. Well done and please keep posting
Thank you! That means a lot to me to hear. I definitely will keep posting! Stay tuned for more 👍🏻
Another great video. I love how you highlight the root cause and explain how to fix them. I find so many coaches don’t do this and its probably why players don’t get better. Thanks for finally shining the light on these issues and how to truly fix them!!
Thanks Lewis! Means a lot to hear that and I’m glad I can shine a light on this for you 👍🏻
Giles you disect the swing so even I can understand it, thanks and keep the videos coming
No problem! Great to hear you’re learning from the videos and enjoying them!
So nice to see someone who’s giving information out when their mouth is moving rather than blathering on to just be saying something all the time. Also, explaining the root cause so as to stop you from trying to fix the symptom and not the cause is incredibly helpful. Concise, clear and well done - I watch a pretty fair amount of these and these are some of the best I’ve seen. Thanks a lot. Subscribed 👍
Thank you Ed! Great to hear you enjoyed the video!
I have been playing golf a long time, almost 40yrs, and have been watching golf advice on TH-cam since it started. I repeatedly hear explanations about the golf swing from Giles that I have never heard before anywhere else. I never heard how a lack of rotation on the backswing is killing my rotation through the ball. If someone told me that the reason my poor rotation through the impact zone was because of a lack of rotation on the backswing I would have told them that doesn't make any sense. That I should be able to rotate going through no matter how much I rotate going back. Everything he just explained makes perfect sense. I have video of my swing and I've have very poor hip rotation in the back swing but never put it together that it was causing my early extension and inability to get open during impact. Giles offers brilliant instruction you don't hear anywhere else.
Thank you Paul! My goal is to stand out and hopefully be the top golf coach on TH-cam so fingers crossed I get there one day!
Watched your video then went out to my range. I have been missing greens, particularly from 160 yds in ( I track them- only 31% GIR and that is hitting a good drive) I lose a lot of shots to the right and lose distance as well. I kept telling myself it is an open club face , which it is, and worked on trying to square the club by making sure I pointed my lead hand so the logo on my glove pointed towards the ground- some success but not consistent. After watching your video a light went on- "Check my grip"! I looked at a fairly new golf glove and noticed the dirt/wear was more in the palm of the glove- I was gripping the club in my left hand more in the palm. At the range I adjusted my left hand to grip at the base of my fingers and presto- ball flight did not fall off to the right- gained 10 yds using my 9 iron ( 135yds vs now 145). What a small change and yet significant pay back- thank you thank you for bringing grip to my attention, which I always thought was OK.Cant wait to play tomorrow- my rounds of 80-82 will become 77-79 I am sure.
Amazing results! Glad this video helped and hope it kick starts some great golf for you
All good Giles! I am one in need of thinking "ROTATION!" For some reason, my lower body gets lazy at times and doesn't do its part! I like the idea of thinking "hands over heels" in the backswing in order to get more depth. I am also working on freeing up the hips as an added benefit! I have no problem with hand and wrist position in the downswing and getting the necessary shaft lean to produce a solid hit. It's the calibration that I need to work on.
Remember rotation isn’t just turning your hips. Rotation happens as a byproduct of pushing in and out of the ground
Excellent content .really appreciate clarity thanks
Glad you’re enjoying the content Tim!
Giles, this is a helpful and excellent demonstration Re: Fixing rotation.
Amazing! Great to hear it helped!
Great stuff Giles! Really appreciate the help you provide to self diagnose my own swing 👍
That you Olof! Glad you enjoyed the video & diagnoses 🙌🏻
Excellent guidance. To the point.
Thank you
Sounds like you want depth at the top, either through big turn in backswing (1) or steep to shallow in rerouting (2) in order to come down shallow that would facilitate turn.
Exactly those are the two best ways to set yourself up for a great downswing
Thanks Giles. Really useful 👍🏻⛳️🏌🏼♂️
No problem. Glad you enjoyed the video!
This is what I have been looking great video well explained with great drills cheers
Great to hear! Glad you enjoyed it!
Really enjoy your coaching one of the best available
Thank you Dom! Glad you’re enjoying the coaching content!
Brilliant thanks Giles
Thank you Roger!
Something I definitely need to work on - thanks Giles
Glad this video helped Darren!
Nice tips
Thanks a lot
Well done this man, unlike most other instructors, you show why and mostly how.. most important for hopeless golfer as I. Excellent stuff Sir.
Great to hear you enjoyed the video! Thanks Diego!
@@Gilesgillgolf you near London ?? Might come and visit you. Hopefully you can perform miracles too.
@@DIOS10 I am but I now only coach online
good info
Thank you Miroslav!
This guy is going to be huge on YT. Every one of his videos has a unique was to describe a component of a swing that really triggers some light bulbs.
Thank you! Means a lot to hear my videos are resonating and helping things make sense! Fingers crossed it all grows!
Couldn't agree more
@@jackjohnson2171 thank you Jack!
Love the videos Giles. Could you cover drills to encourage hitting down (compressing) the ball and taking divots?
Will add it too the list!
Giles, glad I just found your channel. I am a 4 handicap and struggle with this concept. I tend to lean forward with my upper body on the downswing, and this causes blocks and pushes, cant figure out what is causing my upper body to do this instead of just rotating my body thru .
Sounds like you need to add more right bend into your downswing
Really helpful to have drills with feedback in them. Now all I need is my golf course to lose its layer of snow and ice.
Don’t we all! Fingers crossed you can get out and try this soon👍🏻
I’ve been struggling with the down swing. One told me to pull down and the right hand come down to the right pocket and you are telling me shallow to pull out .. this is the reason that I’ve been struggling and confused as I am getting older and my swing get shorter and weaker. The more I need help by watching golf videos, the more conflicted messages I got.
That’s why you need to stick to pro who say the same message or grab an online lesson with myself and I’ll tell you exactly what’s happening
What do you feel causes snap hooks with driver. I never do it with irons or my hybrid, just my driver? I feel I'm over active with my upper body and under active with lowered body with rotation? Is that right? Any idea how I can fix this?
A snap hook with driver is either caused by a toe strike of the face getting excessively closed to the path. It’s hard to say without seeing your swing but you could be smothering it or potentially stuck under the plane too much as driver naturally is swung on a flatter plane do to its shaft length
On #2, steep back and shallow down. Does every good golf swing has to be a loop? Can u go back shallow and down back shallow? If u have a slow smooth tempo
If can do but you’ll always be fighting the moment of the club and therefore your consistency and distance will be down. You will also have to hit a lot of balls regular to ingrain and maintain that movement pattern
I wish it worked as simple as every action has an opposite reaction. I agree that a flat backswing promotes a steep downswing, but a steep backswing does not necessarily promote a shallow downswing. I see people, myself included that have both a steep backswing and a steep downswing. Getting that shallow downswing from a steep backswing doesn't seem to be automatic at all for most people.
The steep backswing promotes a shallower downswing but their are correct ways to get the club steep and incorrect way to get the club steep. If you set the backswing up well and then you’ll have a higher chance of having a successful downswing. If you’re struggling with shallowing I’d recommend checking out your top of the backswing structure, your downswing sequencing and the width you create or lose in transition 👍🏻
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you!
Dude, Inbee Park wet up straight but she turns her hip before the club catches up!! Nothing like your demonstration on how the hip pushed out!! You are showing what you think is to your thought!! Not all people push their hips out the way you demonstrated. Stay away from these TH-cam instructors!!
Firstly I never said everyone does this. She is an example that sequences her down correctly which shallows the club out. Secondly you should listen to what I say. It’ll help your gamr
Tiger woods is a horrible human being. You should replace that pic with one of jack Nicklaus…the goat and a great person too.
This is a pure technical stand piece
