Once again, Chris, you've done it! For the past couple of rounds, I was not getting a full shoulder turn nor accelerating through the ball. This caused me to hit slices and fade shots. Went back to the Range before my round today, worked on the tips you gave and now I'm driving the ball back down the fairways more consistent. As a matter of fact, I use an app called 18 Birdies and my targets were to hit 8 out of 18 Fairways throughout my round. I found 9 out of 18, still lots of work to do but definitely back on track!! Cheers!!
Hi Chris, you are without doubt the best RU-vid golf coach. I thought I’d advise you that the slow motion clips really help me to see the movement much better. What I noticed in the very last clip is how much movement there was in your hands and wrists from just about hitting the ball and shortly after. At normal speed I did not notice this. This is one area I’m struggling with and that is getting the club to get square at impact. Would love you to do another video showing how you get the club to get square at impact in super slow motion clip set to as many frames per second your device can do. Thanks!
Very clear explanation of hands & club path movement in the backswing, thanks. One thing I have noticed often in your videos is where your club head finishes at the very top of your backswing, it’s appears to “gravitate “ more towards your right ear or the target line, yet I see other golf instruction show the club head should go more over your right shoulder, which is correct or which is more preferred?
Great video Chris! This is helpful for my swing because I tend to get disconnected in my takeaway. Someone once told me to make sure my left shoulder gets under my chin in the backswing. I think this video you made on hand path reinforces and relates to left shoulder under the chin. I will try this out thank you!
Great video, Chris. I was wondering whether you'd be able to do a video about what to do with your leading leg on the followthrough? Basically my leg is still fairly bent after I've hit the ball, which makes it difficult to balance after impact. In this video your leading leg looks very straight. I have a clip I can DM - any help would be brilliant!
The old shake with your left hand 🤚 the second most important thing after learning how to grip the club... I subscribed to your channel and looking forward to more quality videos like this!
Thanks again for this tip!! I have developed an inside out swing over the years but , I find I don’t have enough body rotation. Being older the limits of flexibility do restrict quality rotation. Club head speed is mid to low 80’s and distance with my Epic Driver (12 degree) ranges between 200-220 yards. Any suggestions for older players with flexibility issues?? Thanks in advance. “Cheers” from New Hampshire, USA.
Nice tutorial there. Thanks. Are there any differences in the grip between irons and driver. I follow your set up for grip on irons and it solved my iron slice but for driver it doesn’t seem to translate as well. Any thoughts?
Useful checkpoints for me and my occasionally confused mind to focus on. Perhaps some help on the shape of the left wrist at the top of the backswing could come next? Regards.
If you look at Els, Price, Faldo they had early wrist and forearm rotation. So there are more one way getting to the top of the backswing. Rahm is very short and lot or forearm rotation.
Great video. Just played 18 holes with the principles of this video in mind, i.e. Make sure there is no 'disconnect' between body and arms, and that I had good 'depth' as you call it. Result... 10 fairways hit with driver and extra distance because I'm hitting with a draw. Thanks for your very straightforward tuition.
Chris what is your opinion on raising your arms at the peak of backswing? [Particularly for the driver] What are the costs/benefits? I think it's necessary to create better drop and whip. Not sure if this is complicating my swing but it seems to free it up. What you think?
I want to know that as well. I have always tended to keep my upper right arm close to my chest, but I noticed that on the full swing when he hits a ball, his upper right arm separates from his chest. His elbow doesn't "fly", but it definitely separates, but then reconnects on the way down.
