I’m convinced you guys are Magicians this stuff just makes so much sense and the fact I’ve never seen anyone quite articulate in such a way brilliant will be signing up for you lessons!
I'm so glad you mentioned the last tidbit about hitting the shot and then closing the gap, cause I always finished with my weight forward and was wondering how I was still hitting before the ball but I now realize it's cause I'm tricking myself cause I'm shifting after and not before the shot and I never would have realized!
This is great!! Years and years ago I watched Martin Hall before his TV show. He loves props too. He’d made a plywood version of your prop. Actually named it for a member of the club he taught at. Guy suffered from the same problem. Martin would tee the ball low in the track then have Ira(??) swing. Martin said he would “absolutely wallop” the board. I had scrap plywood so I made one. It really helped. Wood isn’t cheap anymore but anyone with any woodworking skills could probably make one under $10.
Great video! A couple questions. When we close the gap we want to keep our head back right? Like it shouldn’t move as far towards the target as our hips? Also does this closing the gap also apply to driver? I know with driver the low point should be before the ball but I guess ball position solves this. So I would assume we still want to close the gap.
When I try to close the gap I tend to move my head as well. Do you have any tips for closing the gap while keeping your head back? That is what I am working on right now.
Had lesson in March and my goal was to compress ball better. The impact drill is all I did for entire lesson. One difference is pro changed my setup to have the forward shaft lean and also 60-40 weight. It has helped a lot in getting the ball to have the piercing ball flight and more distance. Not there yet as occasionally get a shank or slice to right as I'm way ahead of club with shift to left.
So, I recently started incorporating loose arms and wrists and firing the hips in the transition to get them slightly open at impact. The divot is now ahead of the ball. However, now I am taking deep divots and/or the club is actually digging in and getting stuck in the ground. I checked to see if I was too close to the ball and that doesn’t seem to be the problem. Any other suggestion?
Golf is full of these little paradoxes. Like getting to your front foot and turning through while keeping your head behind the ball with the driver. Tough to do but rewarding if you accomplish it.
The problem is, everybody has heard this tip, tried it, and failed to hit it better. Now a tip that will actually help you not hit it fat: Stop swaying off the ball in your backswing. Focus on keeping your left hip (yes, the left hip) the same distance from the target throughout your backswing. You’ll cure your sway, rotate better automatically, and eliminate the fats without having to think about moving laterally in your downswing.

The ball striking towel is like the best training aid I ever nought! Highly recommended to everyone

Yes we want to get to that line early in the down swing. Remember that the back swing can also play a role in helping you get there.
Sorry, I’m a VERY new golfer so don’t understand many terms yet. When you say close the gap, between which two points are you referring please?
Great video guys! 👍

Excellent!!
Very helpful, thank you

Where can I purchase the impact towel you use? I do not see it available on your website
Did you find out? I was hoping to purchase one as well
Yes, did find it on their website

Got a beautiful looking swing there Piers. All the work you've done seems to have paid off.
Thanks Stu!! Hope all is good pal.

Great to hear. Just have to make sure that you still complete the back swing.
Great video, well explained too! although the amount of times the word arc was used I thought I was watching Danny Maude :D
Ha ha. Thanks Jack. Hope this is useful
Where is the link to that towel?

You are a little steep then Russ. Check your swing plane and make sure the ball isn't too far back.
Is that not swaying instead of rotation your left hip?
When I try to get forward with more rotation I suffer from low left shots. So I get confused between getting open and coming from the inside.

Yes this can be a tough combination. If the ball is going left then the face is pointing that way just remember that too.
Yes, i have a similar problem and have to force my upper body not to lunge towards the target otherwise we are going left of mid wicket😂
Well done guys 🏌♂️ 😊
Great video Piers!
Thanks Patrick. 👍🏻
I tend to move me head forward too
Uncanny, how you know my faults!

Yes Dave, the back swing is such an important part in helping you get to he line too.
#1 reason I duff my irons is I am a piece of crap and a loser!!!
