    I never comment on TH-cam videos & now I'm doing it all the time for you guys.
    It's like you're building a wee community - where we can all learn from each other. Videos like this transfer so very well, way beyond the initial session for one player/person onto hundreds or thousands of other golfers.
    I've learned so much from these sessions, but now you're doing Q&As & other stuff, to further expand it - honestly can't thank you enough Marcus & team.
    Hope you guys go to the moon!

    Great video Marcus. I can identify with Robert (not just names). I have suffered with a bad back most my 30 odd years playing golf. I am just recovering from a chronic illness that almost cost me my job and took away my life for 3 years. I’m just getting back into golf and love your channel it resonates with me so clearly. I plan to sell my electric guitar soon so I can buy one of your GRF boards I hope to come for a lesson , planning it for my 60th but sadly that’s 3 years away. Till then I will keep watching your channel. Cheers .

    Beautiful analysis of an already "good" golfer. Love the " are you moving to a golf shot or moving to a ball" quote. It may be nice to hear what some of these golfers are playing off of some we mere mortals may relate. Keep up the fine work of enlightenment. 2 weeks to normal. Thanks

    Interesting that after about 18 min into the video Robert started to use the 3 wood the sound of the club on contact with the ball changed to a higher pitch. There also seemed to be less contact with mat as there was earlier on which must help. Really interesting video yet again it has given me a clue as to where I've lost some of my distance many thanks

      Marcus, I can't wait for my lesson on the 30th, but I have a dilemma, should I visit my local Driving Range on the 29th (1st day open) just to get some timing back in my swing (I haven't hit a golf ball since October). Or should I come for the lesson with a rusty swing?

    I have long standing back pain that is not getting better due to my upper body driven swing. I'm trying to start from the ground up, but trying to recreate some of these drills is hurting my left back/glute. Is that normal or am I just making too sharp of movements?

    Hi Guys, love your vids! And I certainly will be trying to start using my power from the feet. I notice that you don’t mention “grip” do we need to change our grip? As I have a very strong grip to compensate my over the top? So just concerned I’ve maybe missed something on grip?
    Thanks guys and keep up the fantastic work your doing 👍🏻

    • @GRFGolf
      @GRFGolf  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nothing like a one to one but the closest thing if it's not possible is the GRF system. I will also be doing some live online group sessions for GRFi owners very soon to support and familiarise people with how to use it and the best exercises from the download for them.
