A lot of golfers struggle with the golf swing because they don't fully understand how the golf swing works. This golf tip will show you how to understand the golf swing in a revolutionary way to help you improve ball striking. Once you know how the golf swing works, the golf swing gets much simpler - which will help you to have more fun playing golf and less time being frustrated on the golf course. How do we fully understand the golf swing? It's simple!
Think about the golf swing and the golf club. The golf club has two main ends to it -the grip end - the part you grip the golf club - and the clubhead - the part that hits the golf ball in the golf swing. It is very important to understand that you HIT the golf ball with the club head - I know this sounds CRAZY but 99% of golfers FEEL like they need to hit the golf ball with their hands. When you swing the golf club, you need to know that there are TWO MAIN PATHS - the path of the hands and the path of the golf clubhead. These paths are concentric, meaning that they should ALWAYS be parallel to each other in the golf swing. So, the path of the golf club head and the path of the hands should NEVER intersect in the golf swing. If any of these paths intersect in the golf swing, we see golf swing flaws happen. This golf swing tip will show you how to get the proper mindset so that the golf swing can be much simpler for you.

Whether you are a seasoned golfing veteran looking for a quick swing tune-up after an on-course emergency, or a beginner just looking to get the most out of your golfing experience, I am here to help you achieve your golfing goals.
My mission as your swing doctor is simple, to help you maximize your enjoyment in game of golf. Because, let’s face it, golf is a hard game.
My philosophy is wholly based on the student having a fun, meaningful experience in a frustrating and complicated game where potential lifelong golfers either quit because it is too difficult or that they experience some form of swing-related pain or discomfort. I mitigate these problems by focusing entirely on the student’s needs and goals while teaching a golf swing method that ultimately takes stress off of the common pain areas of the swing.

Hi Tom Your golf instruction, explanations and actual demonstration are without doubt, the Best! I’ve been playing golf for quite a while, had several lessons at my golf club in the UK and watched numerous You Tube videos. The current instruction by the majority of the instructors is a slight outside takeaway and on the down swing a re routing and shallowing of the arc. This method, for me and most handicap golfers, I believe, is too demanding. I am a 14 HC, 75 years young, and since using your methods, I am now hitting longer and crisper shots. My younger golf partners jokingly asked if I am on drugs as I outdrive them. Your golf teaching has given me a new lease of golf life because it is so much simpler and natural Thank you Tom

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

And so we say, Peter..... Welcome to "the dark side", where the spoils of "conventional" instruction - chronic inconsistency, physical pain, and endless frustration - yield to the fruits of effortless and body-friendly enjoyment of this great game for a lifetime. 😆 I'm very glad to have you on board, and I'm thrilled for your success!!

@weightdr80 Год назад

OH MY GOSH! My old golf instructor taught me "straight back, straight through". I started playing golf at the age of 24. I'm now 74 and have always pulled to the left for 50 years. I though the hands end up pointing at the target. WRONG! The overhead view of the hand path and the clubhead path was brilliantly portrayed. I've got a lot of work to do. I'm going to shart with a million chip shots following your instruction on hand path until I break the stupid habits I have ingrained for years and years. Thanks for the great instruction.

@SagutoGolf Год назад

How interesting and sad it is that with all the advances in equipment, technology, golf course grooming, etc. the average golfer still struggles to break 100. Epic failures within the realm of “conventional” instruction, perhaps??? So many misconstrued and/or misguided teachings - such as taking the club straight back, turning the shoulders level while independently lifting the arms, shifting into and torquing against a firm trail side, actively rolling the hands through impact, etc. - have relegated generations of golfers to the vast abyss of inconsistency and chronic frustration (and chronic back/knee/hip pain as well). I’m doing my best here to clear these up one by one and put an end to this madness…. I'm very glad to know that this lesson and the bird's eye view perspective resonated with you. Rather than the million chips shots, though, there is a better and far more efficient way. A significant percentage of my online school members are in their 60's, 70's, and 80's - i.e.: a smorgasbord of chronic ailments, physical limitations, back/shoulder/knee/hip pain, arthritis, and joint replacements - and they are overwhelmingly elated to experience the dramatic pain-free game improvement, seemingly effortless power, and resulting enjoyment that this swing affords them. So, if you'd really like to get on the fast track towards properly learning this swing system in a comprehensive, structured, sequential platform, please consider my online school. That is where you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish, along with diagnostic and corrective tools for resolving common swing, contact, and ball flight issues, and much more. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many seasoned, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result, and I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. And here's a link to my free mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” if you’re interested in checking it out: go.saguto.golf/ You don't need the flexibility of a Romanian gymnast - or even of this far less pliable golf instructor - to execute this swing, experience great ball striking, and reclaim - or even exceed - yardages from years past.

Absolutely outstanding, for once in my life my brain is dialed in completely. This drill and Hogan arms just has my 5 iron sailing into deep center; amazingly crispy sans bucket. Thanks Tommy, you are the colonel. This golf game is a funny thing; in that it's hard to find consensus on anything, I help my buddies and extol Tommy all the time. You can lead a horsie to water, but you cannot make them drink. And, golf has that deep memory trace in old timers. So, you get them hitting beautiful rainbow shots, and you're giving them the keys to the kingdom; then they say, that's great but I can't hit my driver that way....? And, you go, but that's the only way you should be hitting your driver, I am 75yds beyond you and that's the way I hit my driver. Then, the retort; it just doesn't work for me. Soon, the adage, life is too short to hammer through decades of doing it from some other unknown hymnal. This golf is a religion of sorts, and it can be a hard pull to bring folks to the land of milk n honey and xtra crispy heavenly hits.....

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

I'm glad you were able to watch this one, Teddy. It can be quite the eye-opener when viewed from a bird's perspective! Based on the occasional (though thankfully somewhat rare) comment posted here containing the disordered vitriolic spewing forth of shear hatred, _"golf is a religion of sorts"_ may just be the understatement of the decade! 😂😎 Anyway, here's a short story on my "conversion" - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PM8lNNrMPEk.html - in case your buddies ever care to consider this dark side of golf. Evil swing sorcery. The cult that is quietly, surreptitiously gathering lost swings from the vast purgatorial abyss of failed "conventional" instruction and leading them to the way and the truth of a method rooted in the unchanging principles of physics and geometry. Creating heinously horrifying creatures of repeatability, predictable ball flight, and effortless power. Like a hideous and unstoppable amoeba slowly yet steadily consuming the golfing globe. If not, let them admire your beautiful rainbows and booming drives 'til eternity and keep the keys to the kingdom for yourself! Stay crispy my friend! Tom

@jkuuze5924 3 года назад

Thank you Tom. I started tinkering with my swing early summer after watching you and just hearing of stack and tilt. Tried it and then kinda stopped. But then went back to it and the light bulb went off after rewatching videos and doing some of your drills. I now understand it. My buddies definitely recognize much better ball striking. Last 5 rounds had 3 in the 70's including a best for me of 73. Hope to get to myrtle for some personal lessons. I can't believe it took me 30 years to learn of stack and tilt.

Always remember to keep hands low around the body also, they must stay the same distance at impact that they were at address. Hope it makes sense.

This is so important. It’s similar to the concept of staying connected and keeping the arms straight, but keeping the hands low throw impact is such a great way to think about it.

Great tip, This is why some of my best golf strikes are when I try to have the heel of the clubhead lower. Doesn't really happen during the swing but keep my hands lower and they follow the inner track as you described. Plus, I think that fixes my shoulder tilt issue.

@tommiehl677 Месяц назад

Great video, especially the overhead. I’ve been, for years, trying to go straight back. From the video, it is straight back at an angle. I’ll work on that.

@SagutoGolf 29 дней назад

Thanks Tommie - I'm very glad to know that this lesson and the bird's eye view helped you. The swing is a tilted circle (or arc, if we wish to get technical), the circumference of which extends from the ball to above and behind our shoulders. As such, if we are going to remain on that circle/arc it requires the hands and club to take a slightly inward path - not a disconnected handsy snatch or roll to the inside - just a natural tracing of the outer rim or circumference. The feeling of "straight back" can easily pull the golfer off of that preestablished geometry right from the start, and from there precise compensatory actions are necessary if there is any hope of returning the clubface to the ball on the proper path time after time. So rather than have to rely on "dropping it in the slot" the exact amount each and every swing, why not just put in the slot from the start and just keep it there?! The lesson video I just released today addresses this notion as well: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6P8a6RuudwI.html We create depth in this swing, and that enables us to fully engage the shoulders and harness the tremendous power of swinging on an inclined arc courtesy of the seemingly effortless force known as "angular momentum" - where physics and geometry collide. While I certainly have other lesson videos that address this topic, a better option would be my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ It's a great way to gain a fundamental understanding of this system as well as an introduction to the instruction style that has thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - enjoying the best golf of their lives: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews Thanks for your message and have fun out there!

Some of my best professors in College were the "best" because they had several ways to explain a lesson. They understood that not everyone learns the same. I've watched A LOT of your videos and you teach the same thing, but in a different way each time. Honestly, sometimes, it doesn't resonate. But most of the time, 80% or more, I learn a valuable tip. Thanks for all you do for this sport Tom👍

@SagutoGolf 2 года назад

I appreciate that, @J PP! Yes - I do my best to convey multiple feels or thoughts throughout the swing wherever possible because we're all different physiologically and psychologically, and something that resonates effectively with one golfer may not necessarily work for another. However, no matter the variety of suggested feels/thoughts offered for a particular element of the swing, they are all directed at getting different golfers to achieve the same desired positions, motions, and ball striking results. This one reason is why the comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform of my online school is so effective, and why so many folks across the globe are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result. The lessons and drills provide the guidelines and set the boundaries, while providing ample leeway for each individual golfer to infuse and exercise their own uniqueness.

I definitely never swung the club before with the handle/hand path only (in mind). It does make complete sense. Thanks.

hello just found your video on the hand path, love the Rose and Nicholas shots overhead as well. started golf late in life and all the instructors emphasize to me "hit the inside quarter of ball"","turn your shoulders behind the ball","keep face square to target","follow thru""backswing slower than downswing",etc, etc,etc. like you said, to many thoughts to compute in 1 second. do you have a video on the hands/handle following the body around.no mention of the torso/body in the video ,seems that for the concept to work ,it of necessity needs your body/torso to go around as well. sort of like keeping end of handle pointed toward belly button throughout the swing. thanks John

@mibaer71 2 года назад

Very good explanation on a major issue. In my opinion the handpath is the most underrated part of a proper golf stroke producing solid contacts, especially the way in of the hands in and past the impact area. I´ve always been hitting it from the inside, but I used to hit sockets, thin and fat until I started to pay attention to the bowed hand path with the inward movement at and after impact. No Pro never told me to do so, but Nick (golftec) did - via youtube. It practically immediately produced solid contacts and, much more important to me, heely hits (causing a clubface-slice especially with the driver due to gear effect) and sockets disappeared. The only thing I had to do was a little adjustment to the face-to-path-angle in order to avoid hooks or pull-hooks when exaggerating the inward movement of the hands.

O Man..what a lesson! Gotta try! Checking; if my hands are on the inner track and the club follows in the outer track wouldn't it lead to a pull/hook slightly?

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

I'm glad you enjoyed it!! With regard to the shot shape, it's imperative to understand that ball flight rules are a function of clubface as it relates to path and target line. Clubface relative to target line dictates the ball's starting line, and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature. The stock shot shape in the Stack and Tilt swing is a push-draw. If your downswing path properly approaches the swing’s low point on an inside track, you will then be on the correct path to take advantage of the preferred S&T “grid”. The grid tells us that if the ball position is behind the low point - which it typically should be to some degree on standard shots for all clubs perhaps with the exception of the driver - then a clubface that is open to the target line but closed to the downswing path will produce some measure of a push-draw.

@wfrentzel7503 3 года назад

Hey Tom, good video. As I said before, I’m a Jim Hardy guy. He too, has the concept of the inner and outer circle. The hands on the inner circle provide a inward centripetal force while the club is thrown outward with centrifugal force, providing speed. What I don’t understand about your explanation is the hands don’t stay on the inner circle or you could not complete your backswing. The one plane swing requires a parallel plane shift to complete the backswing, I.e. you start the backswing with the right arm being the top arm, and in order to get the top, the left arm becomes the top arm. In fact, at the top of the backswing, both the hands and the club head are on the outer circle! The trick in the downswing is to return the hands to the inner circle by dropping the hands straight down while throwing the club head outward simultaneously. This restores the relationship of the hands being on the inner circle and the club head on the outer circle. But in my opinion, you will lose significant distance if you never undergo a plane shift and the hands always remain on the inner circle. What am I missing?

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

@wfrentzel, Please have a look at the brief clip of Andy Plummer at around the 2:59 mark of this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m9qdPOzYUWU.html. Andy demonstrates rather simply here how the relationship of the hands to the body (or to the club if he were holding one) doesn't change. There are no motions in this swing that shift the hands onto the outer track and then bring them back to the inner track. Even in this video you are commenting on you can watch the overhead of Nicklaus at around 4:34 immediately followed by the overhead of me where I draw the lines tracing the two distinct paths. The natural hinging of the wrists may give the false appearance that the two paths become one, but in actuality it remains "hands in, club out" throughout. While I do appreciate your curiosity, if you're in the Hardy camp - which, to be clear, I take absolutely no issue with as I think Jim has done some great work - then my best advice is to stick with that and avoid any possible confusion by not concerning yourself with what is being taught here or by any other S&T instructor. We can all peacefully coexist in our enjoyment of this great game! Cheers! Tom

Great tip Tom. I discovered this concept recently, and it really helps. Here is another secret; it works on chipping and putting too.

@bobhitt6986 3 года назад

Tom, I enjoyed your video, but have a suggestion for one of your future videos. I believe that some people watching stack and tilt based instruction videos that have a grid involved might get the idea that their club shaft should "point toward" the club alignment sticks. I believe that the club path alignment sticks are where the clubhead should be with respect to vertical projection. In other words, if one was to shine a light from directly above the golfer, then the shadow of the clubhead would follow the alignment sticks on the stack and tilt grid. On the other hand, I believe that the club shaft will actually point closer to, or onto, the target line. I know that when I watch PGA tour players on TV at angles from down the line, the shaft appears to point toward the target line on the initial part of the backswing for the majority of players. Perhaps you could do something with a laser attached to the clubhead to show the differentiation between where the clubhead should be in vertical projection ( alignment sticks) versus where the club shaft is actually pointing ( I suspect closer to the target line).

@steveperry1344 3 года назад

i have a couple of golf club lasers that i never use, i should try that.

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Hi Bob, I really like this new overhead perspective as I believe it offers a lot of clarity with regard to the hand and club paths. It is not likely that I will get into too much detail on the grid here in the free YT channel. We're talking about some rather meaty and in-depth content that is best suited for the more advanced areas of my online school. However, once I begin to focus on creating such material for the school I will be looking at creative ways to convey it, and lasers are not out of the realm of possibility in this regard so I do appreciate your suggestion. Thanks! Tom

Second, you mentioned hitting the driver with S&T but never showed or talked about it. I need to practice keeping my hands inside.

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Hi Wayne, I'm glad you enjoyed this video as well as the recent episode on my S&T academy experience! Here's a channel video lesson specific to the driver that I released earlier this year: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_xl47-9p1YU.html I was working on slowing - or braking - my overactive hips to correct my overly shallow downswing path and also create additional speed through the zone. That was what I was trying to accomplish by having my trail foot kick out during the downswing - like a bowler or a hockey playing hitting a slap shot. This is a rather advanced level lesson - and far too complex for channel video instruction purposes - but the premise behind it is that the hip braking transfers energy to the club, resulting in more effortless power!

Hi Ryan, Same swing with every club in your bag.... (except the putter, perhaps 😆) Just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. Cheers!

Great lesson Tom. I was on the course today and every time I hit a great iron shot, I’d laugh and say “ ooh, that felt good, crispier than KFC.”Ha ha it was quite often too ! Thanks. Really is fun when you hit them right, my golf buddies think I’m crazy, but I told them no, it’s Tom Sagutos fault. Lol

Hey Tom, great video, very helpful, so many instructors and articles mention pushing the club back on back swing, but that gets me off the 'track' you describe, what is going on there?

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Kent, Unfortunately such sorcery from my deep, dark underworld of golf instruction rarely finds its way to the mainstream because if too many folks found out about it the mainstream would then be rendered irrelevant.......😆 That move of pushing the club back instantly takes your hands off of their inner concentric track and sets you up for a swing that involves lifting the club and - usually - shifting the weight back and forth. As you can tell we definitely don't do that in the swing method I teach!! Tom

@MJB7322 2 года назад

Tom, would you please let me know if my understanding of this concept is correct. Even though the hand path and clubhead path are different, a golfer should not consciously try to get the clubhead out to the ball with either hand/wrist or forearm manipulation. The clubhead gets out to the ball (when the hands follow the hand path) because of the angle between the clubhead and the shaft. Put another way, when the club is in the delivery position it is perfectly parallel to the target line. Bring the club down to the impact position, and the clubhead is perfectly behind the ball. Not because of any manipulation but solely because of the angle between the shaft and clubhead. When I swing the club around me (which you advocate) and try to purposefully swing the clubhead out to the ball, I hit huge hooks. When I feel like I am swinging the club more backward (but slightly inward) my hands stay close to my body and the clubhead seems to come into the ball more squarely. Hope this makes sense. Just looking for validation.

@SagutoGolf 2 года назад

@MJB7322 - I do not teach any active manipulations, so you are essentially correct. Having said that, some golfers do need to "feel" the lead arm getting off the chest in the transition to the downswing, but I still consider that to be a part of the motion and not anything contrived. Seems like you have a good grasp of the basics in this regard, so just let your ball striking and shot shape be your guide. Have you considered joining the online school and taking your game to the next level? That's where - in addition to detailed lessons and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step from setup to finish - you'll find diagnostic tools for identifying and resolving swing and ball flight issues when they arise as well as all my short game instruction, plus advanced level courses on shot shaping and power/distance.

This makes perfect sense to me. Haven’t had the chance to try this yet , but how do you avoid blocking shots right or hitting snap hooks? Thanks

@mizal7893 3 года назад

If you keep your hands low through impact as Tom is, the only way you should be able to block it is by early extending (or early extending and flipping for the hook). If you maintain your relationship to the ball while doing this, it really shouldn’t block or hook all that much.

Hi Tom, thanks for the video. All was you say makes completly sense. One question in bsw: I would stil need tol bring the club vertical up to some extent, correct? Thanks

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Actually, there is no independent lifting action in this swing. The combination of turning the lead shoulder down (or tilting, turning, and extending) with bringing the lead arm 45 degrees across the chest and taking the hands on an inward path creates all the depth and height we need. At the top the lead arm should be at or just below the downward tilted shoulder plane. The online school has all the detail you need for just $10 US/month....

How does this session overlap with previous sessions where Hogan fundamentals were the focal point? Do they align?

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Hi Terry, Yes - they absolutely align! Mr. Hogan was not textbook Stack & Tilt because he had a brief shift in pressure to his rear leg before getting into his front side at the top of his backswing. I am not advocating or teaching any shift into the trail side, but beyond that the majority of his swing contains so many great elements that we can all benefit from and which also fit perfectly within the realm of S&T!

hi Tom, please help. What is right and what is wrong? When i swing my club more "around" my body, below my shoulder it feels like im losing connection to the ball cus if my right shoulder isen't "over" the ball. But when i swing more with my lead arm over my shoulder and higher to the neck it feels like im staying more connected to the ball with my right shoulder. It feels more like im staying "over" the ball. Im talking about the backswing now, should i lose that little of connection with the ball and swing more lower or im i doing something else wrong?

Can't seem to hit my driver as crispy as my hybrids using stick drill What do you think I'm doing wrong. Thanks

@SagutoGolf Год назад

That's impossible for me to diagnose without seeing your swing, Tim. I can say, however, that oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the driver it can be attributed to one of the following: 1) They don't start with - or maintain - enough weight on the front side. In general with the longer clubs we should add a little more front weight load at address - more like 60/40 instead of the 55/45 prescribed for the other clubs. This forward weight should gradually increase to the top of the backswing (70/30) and build further on the downswing - approximately 80/20 halfway down, 90/10 impact, and 95/5 finish. 2) Their hips are not continuing their lateral slide through impact. This is common with the driver as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing then their rotation takes over, changing the low point and rerouting the club. This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices. 3) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The longer shaft length of the driver necessitates more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as they take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as they maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around them, it should put them in the proper position at the top so they can attack the ball from the inside. You would do well to consider the online school where members are working through the lessons and drills and hitting the longest (and straightest) drives of their lives. saguto.golf TS
