How To Start Your Downswing | Good Good Labs 

Grant and Garrett should do a traveling golf instructing where they help random subscribers with their golf game. Their teaching is on another level.

Definitely would like to know wrist hinge and left arm straight connection.

Transitioning to the downswing is the hardest part of a golf swing. Well done guys.

Grant’s tempo is so buttery smooth. A good back swing is so overlooked, but so important for having a solid downswing. Great video series guys.

Lets go! Keep the ideas coming!

I personally believe after watching these videos for months and months, Grant is the best golfer of the group. He has the most consistent swing, golf shots, and most importantly has the most poise. I don’t mean to drag on Garret, but it just seems the guy has more inconsistent tendencies as do all the other golfers. Tig is fun to watch, Matt brings competitive energy, bubbie brings the bubly spirit, and Steve… just the most consistently under performing anywhere other than on the dance floor. If you didn’t notice that groups makes for all time great content. Love it. Grant, I want your swing!

Thanks,,,, You young guys are very good instructors on the game,,,,an old Nam veteran ,,,thanks,,,,

I would like a video explaining how to understand different lies. Like when the ball is above or below your feet. Also hitting out of the rough and bunker.

Grant is turning into a beast.. Getting really comfy on camera. Smart guy, really good addition by Garrett to the squad

Old guy here (50...probably can tell by how long this comment is). With golf swings, the smallest idea or swing thought can sometimes turn on the lightbulb, and for me, it was this video saying to start the downswing just a beat early with the hips. It's a subtle move, and seems obvious. But something about how you described it sunk in. That little shift helps correct my weight lean and puts a proper focus on follow thru. I'm a 15 hcp who went out Sunday to a 6500 yd, average AZ course and shot an 81, with a water challenge setting me back 2 shots on 18, or I'd have had my first 70s round ever. I think the 30-40-50 chipping video may be equally helpful...just watched it, so we'll see tomorrow. Thanks! It's amazing to me how two young guys whose combined age is mine are so mature in approach to teaching the game. I've forwarded the links to everyone in my golf world. Thanks!

Congrats on being mentioned so much on Golf Channel and the Long Drive championship live streams.

I literally feel like every one of these videos so far is exactly what I need 😂 I love these so much PLEASE keep them up guys!!

I just recently started watching y’all’s videos and I normally slice my shots very badly. With that being said y’all have helped me tremendously on getting that slice to go away and i look forward to many more tips and tricks to better me in my golf game. Thanks guys keep up the good work!!

Been playing alot of golf for the last 10 months and struggling with a slice. Watched all the good good Lab videos and today it clicked for me on the course. Went from 250 yard slices to 280ish draws. Thank you guys so much.

Love these videos, been helping me improve my game. Keep it up guys💯

All of the good good intros are amazing. You guys are killing it! Big thanks to the labs for FREE instruction!

How cool is it gonna be in 2 or 3 years to see Garrett and Tig on the PGA Tour and Grant in the TV booth providing expert golf instruction analysis!

Jesus loves you all and died for our sins

Love how you guys are adding drills!

Wow I love how smooth your swings are. These are great tips. I definitely rely on the pause at the top to bring everything back into sync. I also take a shorter swing to (pre-parallel) to ensure I have a clear and simple path back into the slot.

Would love some slow motion shots where you pause and discuss what’s happening frame by frame. Great video regardless.

These Labs are sooo good. I watched the "improve your grip" one and didn't even realise I was doing it wrong until I saw the vid. Had the club too much in the palm of my hand. I switched it to be more in my fingers and went out and noticed the difference immediately.

these are so valuable to fixing my swing and to get more consistent

This is awesome, I feel like I really struggle with getting quick. Thanks for the tips, cant wait to get to the range! Keep up the good work guys!

Great video, I love the good good labs. Grant is incredible at teaching golf.

Wow this helped me A LOT. My shots used to be super inconsistent and now I’m hitting absolute bombs (relatively speaking) consistently straight and farther! Grant is an awesome teacher, for real.

Great instructions You make it look so simple if you follow the intructions

Hey guys, keep the lessons going, I am getting better. Love your style, simple and to the point. I am a 67 yrs old female with only 5 yrs into the game with a 21 handicap. Expect within a year to go down to 15. Thanks you for all your help. 👍🏼

Great video guys, you guys have the best content out there by far

Thanks Guys 👏 You guys are awesome together. I’m using the gather at top of swing ! Nice !

Excited about the future of Good Good Labs! One thing I'm struggling with is wrist rotation through the downswing; more importantly where should your hands be at certain points in the downswing (rotation wise). Hopefully I can learn some more about all of this on this channel. Appreciate the support guys!

This is what i needed, I tend to swing over-the-top and my weight is all jacked up. My weight was mainly off balanced on my toes, also swinging up on the ball ( trying to add loft.) Finishing you’re weight on the left side is very important too.

I just watched this yesterday and took the information to the range today. Normally I would heavily hook and top the ball about 70 percent of the time. Just following this video I’m now hitting it straight and nearly without hooks or cuts about 70 percent of the time. Just one trip to the range and a huge improvement. Thanks you guys are great. Now just have to fine tune and build some muscle memory.

I love your personalities, I know it's not always GOOd good but I always laugh when I watch you guys never a dull moment always having fun...thank you for making me laugh it's great

These are the best videos from the whole good good family content.

Taking this to the range, love these tips!!!!

Love your guys most recent videos. Definitely gonna have to cop some merch soon!!

loving this series

One of the best drills I've used to transition into the downswing is to have half a tennis ball under your left heel (for a righty), then just as you reach the top of your backswing push your left heel down to compress the tennis ball, and keep it compressed through to follow through. For me and others I've shared it with have gotten impressive resultls. Love the channel.

Watching these videos and putting it into action on the range has improved my handicap from +24 to a +13. These are great! Keep it up!

2 beautiful golf swings right there

I have been watching all of y’all’s channels for awhile now and just trying copy and practice my swing over the past year and a half and I have actually gone from 20+ handicap down to a 8 handicap in just a full year! Love the content y’all put out and happy y’all have this channel!

Garrett and Grant -- instructional videos can be hard to finish because one person is doing a lot of talking and is the only one demonstrating. When you two team up, things move along much better because you are talking about each other. It's a good format and watching your great swings is good for the tag team lesson You two have the gift of gab (a complimentary slang for verbal skills) and the ability to make some quality instructional videos.

So far I've got the club in my fingers vs my palm and am closer to the vall. It's helped. Gonna add Micas driving tips, and check this video out. You rock

You guys should do a "monthly recap" vid at the end of each month for a summary of all the tips Loving the content, saving me bucket loads on the lessons I'd need to get!

didn't have Good tube when I started... it was read a book and hope your buddies new something about the swing..I did progress into a draw after a yr and broke par after 4 yrs. what turned my game is a friend helped me with the short game from 100yds in and learning to lower my ball flight.... but I lived golf, hitting 1000's of balls and gettin real good good bad habits🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😎😎😎😎😎⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳

The best player to watch for the transition is Sam Snead. His swing in slow motion really exemplifies the pause between backswing and downswing. Garrett has that same move. Great video guys.

This video helped me big time with my swing

I like Garrett starts using "The Force" at 4:30. I half expected a lightsaber edit.

The pause or feeling of weight transition at the top has been the biggest contributor to staying under 100 for me. Great advice guys!

Grant Texas Teeth Horvat Don’t know how to explain it but the guy just has that quintessential rich man Texas teeth. Killing it

These videos are great and super helpful. I think a piece that would add to the help and understanding would be cutaways where you dissect each piece of the swing in slow motion where you can stop and annotate certain parts of the swing itself to better spend time on the individual components that a good swing is compiled of

Possible series idea: Find a beginner golfer and do a Road to Par series where you guys use the tips in these videos to help the golfer get to the level you guys are at! I think that could really help this channel get to the level of your other channel! BTW I volunteer as tribute of course, my game sucks but I love your videos!

Could you do a vid on impact position - how open the body should be, dynamic loft of the club face , not flipping the hands etc? I think downswing and impact are the two most important parts of the golf swing. Great work so far! Learning a lot

Just watched tig’s last video on staying connected. Helped me so much!

Like the little clips and simplicity

Literally have been struggling beyond understanding with my driver. All tops or super slices averaging like 80 yard drives. I watched Grant swing driver in every channel you guys have and just tried to emulate his swing and played yesterday hitting a perfect draw averaging 265. Not a single slice lol. Thanks Grant

Great videos guys keep up the good work. From QLD Australia

These two are my fav

Garrett is obviously a stud but I honestly think Grant has an awesome swing and the perfect tempo. I heading to the course and see what happens lol. Love the videos guys

You both are the best match!

My late grandfather taught me the golf swing is like dancing the waltz. I have no idea how to dance it, but the tempo is 1, 2, 3...4,5,6. Where 1, 2, 3 is the backswing, the hesitation at 3 is the "gather" mentioned above, 4 is contact, and 5,6 is that balance on your front foot at the end.

Nicely done!!

I just ordered that hat and I can't wait until it comes in!

Awesome! Thanks guys

Grant is revolutionizing golf instruction. He's as good as Hank Haney, Butch Harmon, Sean Foley, Jim McLean. He's a younger version of George Gankas. We should fully expect to see him on the Golf Channel broadcasts within a year or two.

Slow motion would be sick to start adding to these

Very helpful video, great work and thank you! My only question is , do you change your weight through the ball when you have uphill lies?

Both have controlled takeaways to the top!

I cant believe I just now found Good Good Labs! Great advice! Although, I'm not sure that I'm a big fan of the changing camera angles in the middle of the swings though. I think it makes it a little harder to grasp the tempo of the full swing.

Have to say, you guys do simplify things compared to others. I'm going to try these tips. In my 40s, I started golfing around 20 years old. On my 3rd golf odyssey. The lowest I've been is 12. I'm steep to the ball. No matter what I've done, I can not shallow my down swing. I throw right, bat left, golf right, hockey left. Right-hand dominant golf swing that doesn't use/fire/clear my lower half, and when I try, it's a complete mess.

Superb boys. Love this 👌👌

Feel vs. Real is always interesting to me. I do enjoy the channel and think it's great you're starting to produce content to help other golfers. My only advice is that you stay away from feels. Feels are individual to the golfer and normally aren't actually what's happening in the golf swing. Gears technology shows that the hands are never really passive from the top of the down swing. It might feel like you don't do anything specific to you, but Gears shows the exact opposite. The hands pull straight down almost immediately from the top and maximum hand speed is achieved early on in the downswing. If this didn't happen, the club would never get back on plane. All that said, your points on the transition should allow golfers to feel more in sync and less stuck. As you noted, if the body goes too soon, it'll force the club face wide open, come over the top, and likely result in a slice.

Great video guys!

You guys are missing an opportunity to take slow motion video of the swings and annotate over it. Grant is so good at explaining things, and some visuals aids would really help.

Awesome tips ⛳️👍✌️

Grants swing is just...pure.

Grant needs to let us know where he got those joggers from, I’ve seen em in a few videos and they look perfect for the golf course

Once again best golf videos on RU-vid lesssgooo

This helped so much thank you

Great video guys

Brooo immm bout to be sending em after this! Thanks G and G

Love these videos

Love that y’all are doing this. Hmu if y’all are still trying to play this weekend.

This is gold fellas!!!

Love the tips gents!

I needed this!!!

This just helped me figure out why i was so bad today i forgot to clear my hips and let my hands drop i was all arms.

love it

I like the check points would love to see more drills

Garrett in the back with the club, while Grant is doing the intro 🤣

This was more of a transition video, but I dig it!!! Good job boys

I'm a 5 index where what Garret outlines, that "rush" (under pressure for me as well) keeps me from getting closer to scratch or winning more. Is there a mental picture to help put a stop to that? ...let's just call it what it is a "yip". I have a swing folks complement tempo wise, but I look like a 15+ when that tempo glitch creeps in. It's usually out of impatience during a round, or if a match is tight or I have to give a stroke on a hole. In short what do you do mentally when the "gremlin" comes out ??. Great instruction guys!

What helped me is I slowed it down to in the video

I can listen to grant talk all day

Please make a video on using the ground or the "push off" before the down swing. Would love Tig to explain he does it so well

Will there be a video on kinda practice drill on all of these techniques, to imorove and get better in golf? Love your content🙌🏽

You are a natural teacher ! Excellent work. Who's Garret...............lol.

Love the videos, but I'm not sure if it's just because I love you guys. The Labs videos definitely need alot more slow mo, like every swing show full speed, half speed and sometimes even slower. Draw lines to show shoulder angles, hand positions ect. I know you're trying to do things differently but these things would help alot! ❤️

Any experience/heard on rib (10th, cartilage/bone junction) injuries on the downswing at impact? What could cause the stress on the cage as I use a rather strong grip? Trying to tuck my trailing elbow in on the downswing and boom, twice in a month, stab like pain. Keep up the good work, I’ll work on the approaches until I heal!
