The video at the end is of Mac O Grady who advocates the start of the downswing with right shoulder moving outwards 10 inches as first movement of the downswing before it then moves more downwards and towards the target. Mac O Grady, great golf swing and probably know's more about the mechanics of the swing than anybody else ?
This is an amazing drill. Everyone emphasizes stretching out and getting loose in the back swing to come down fast and getting all the way back but theyre not practicing the strike at all. The only part of every single swing that really matters. Take it back sideways and it doesnt matter if you strike it well.
Excellent tip Alistair on how to attain the proper swing path! My thought when I get up to hit the ball is to swing on a semi circle pattern with an in to out swing path! My ball movement is usually from right to left. Periodically, I do get a push or pull, but only if my right elbow gets too far away from my right side. Well Done Alistair!
I have been working on this move for a while with good results. My question is at what point does the club head overtake the hands? Thanks for all you do.
Never try and “square a club head up”. Horrible swing thought to have. The face squares itself automatically if your swing is correct, you need to allow the club to release. The golf club is designed to square itself automatically if you allow the tool to do its job. This is why everyone has a beautiful practice swing and can’t hit the ball for shit when the time comes, they forget to let the club do its job, and try to use the club like a croquette mallet.
Hopefully you understand I am a coach and not a player, I have not practiced this skill for multiple balls before filming, this is me with no warm up. It’s also about influencing it to move differently and probably it’s more down than normal. But please look at the moves of the best players and not the coaches. The players have the talent and the coaches to knowledge of the biomechanics
Like your other online students, I also have a terrible time with the Fairway clubs. I can bash the irons all the livelong day!! Yet, there are problems concerning the Fairway clubs singularly unique to them. This video helps disassociate these clubs, one from the other. Hitting these underachieving weapons properly is a huge component of lower scores. Especially on par fives when a powerful second shot cuts those holes down to Size. Great instruction once again.
All that is OK, but the number one issue is the shaft for 3-5 woods. If the shaft is too strong and/or heavy and/or high kick point, you will not do well. Switch to a lighter softer low-kick point shaft and boom - away it goes. Technical correctness is good but having the right gear is more important.
Although I agree equipment is a big part, it needs to be fitted. May club shaft profile would be completely different to your recommendation. Get the right technique and equipment for the player
@@adaviesgolf Absolutely true - agree 100%. Like many others I tried for years with technique changes to 'fix' my inability to hit a 3 or 5 wood well (when I used to). And then one day I was at a Demo day and the bloke said I was now slower and needed softer shaft with low kick point (and explained why). Tried a few and then one was great - it went high and long without needing to hit absolutely perfect. Bought them for all the woods and hybrid - brilliant.
I agree with you Alistair that the 3 wood is the hardest club to hit in the bag. I think it's because it is a longer club and a low lofted club. I put a Cleveland Launcher 17* in my bag and because of tight mown fairways and I find it easier to hit than a 15* 3 wood. I also used to be a "sweeper" of the fairway woods and have not started hitting down on them. Well Done Alistair!
"ALISTAIR THE ACE" DAVIES. That should be your new Nom De Guerre!! Like so many players, I want to employ more shaft lean, but I am concerned with a Nasa special. Namely a hosel rocket!! As you've so eloquently explained, that is a real danger when this is executed poorly. That rotation drill may be the best thing relating to the golf swing since grips on the club!! It's a simple muscle memory drill. I will employ this immediately for more rotation. And I will rotate back to your channel even more than that. Great videos!!
In a further comment, Lee Trevinos's ONLY mental block in golf was that he hated Augusta National!! Just the shot shape that was needed. The great Jack Nicklaus called him out on this because he knew Trevino was a genius. In upper case!! Jack told him that anyone with the Merry Mex's talent could hit any kind of shot he required. Under any conditions. Gary Player also cited Trevino as being the best player on golfs most difficult tracks. Other than Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino played the most brutal courses better than anyone. Don't forget Trevino had a late start to the tour and also suffered a terrible accident, like Hogan. He was struck by lightning on the golf course during his golfing prime. As a side note, he may have been the best wedge player of all time. I can recall Trevino hitting a wedge and seeing the ball go forward and then skipping back. As if he had a 300-foot yo-yo in his hands!! I haven't seen anyone before or since that could do that. If you had a tee shot for your life and you had to have it in play, I would put my money on Lee Trevino. Only Ben Hogan had a greater control of a golf ball.
Worth the effort Alistair. Extremely useful/encouraging way to work your way up, in a non complex way. As I said a lot guys who want to see some progress happening (input/output)..this one means a lott
I too discovered this by accident on the range. I went home and searched "open stance golf set up" on youtube and among other things, Lee's swing came up. It makes a HUGE difference. Gets the body open and turning much easier. Probably the single biggest improvement I have seen in my swing.
In actual fact I dont think I have come across one of your tips which hasn't improved my golf. Playing off 4 now and alot of that is due to your great explantions of the golf swing. Why you havent got 100,000 subscribers is a mystery to me. If people are serious about improving their golf they should subcribe to your channel. All the best, a subscriber from Melbourne Austraia
