Proper Release of the Clubhead in the Golf Swing 

The last 3 minutes is GOLD

I tried this swing yesterday and hit my longest drive ever. My 7 wood in the fairway was long. My irons hit the ball with unbelievable distance. I normally use 7 iron on par 3s. Now I have to use 9 iron. I shot an 83. I'm stoked.

OMG: I had these videos 30 years ago, but sadly didn't get em! This Dude knows his stuff and exposes all these Cowboys on RU-vid. Grateful Aussie. P.S. Roger King gets this stuff!

Despite a right sided paresis, it was fortunate Mike did not lose his speech and was able to share his golf wisdom. God bless him. At 6:01 see the point of proper release.

It’s amazing how much golf wisdom Mike Austin had back in those days.

This is the best explanation of the back swing ever!!! Once you get that position at the top of the back swing right, (like a waiter caring a tray) the downswing just works. Played a 9 hole executive course today and hit 8 greens in regulation. Par was 28, I shot a 30. Fantastic swing lesson.

Great stuff Steve👍👍

Did I mention I’m 30 metres longer with the driver a week after watching all these #mike Austin hand arm forearms elbow release info ... everyone always says you swing it so good .. but I’m average distance and not consistent #notanymore .. I’m 40 and been playing since I was 21 and I know my next 20 yrs I’m going to be longer and better than in my 20s 🤝🤛🏻👏🏼👍

Amazing use of physics in a very efficient golf swing

this looks incredibly powerful, but i think it would be very tough to time it up on the golf course

Best 13 minute golf lesson on the net !!! #mikeaustin #legend

10:19 and 11:27 are some gem among many. Thanks for sharing

This motion sounds like "casting", which seems contrary to "lag". I've always been told that to get more distance I need more "lag", which whips the club head through contact. ?????

Mmhhhmmmm Mike just agrees with anything. He is a good sport.

Hi Steve and thanks again for the video. So interesting although I'm still processing some of the points and descriptions. I've had the impression that You like to see a handpath lower and to the left after impact rather than up to the right as suggested here (with club pointing high left). Is there a conflict here, or maybe a confused misunderstanding on my part?? Thankfully as ever, Martin, Sweden

Every description of what the many individual parts does in our swing that Mike's says in his videos are true. Except Mike failed to realize back then that as our body is made of two sides; one side pulls the club head back and the other side pushes the club back with equal power and strength. The problem with our primitive minds we can only sense our pushing motion or pulling motion in our body separately and never together. With this in mind I simply pull my club back and naturally allow my body to respond pivoting with the direction and the power of dorsiflexing (bending)my right hand backwards . I reverse my downswing by pushing my club forward by palmar flexing( bending my right hand forward to the end of my swing. I swear it is that simple. Cheers. Think of the paint brush move with your right hand and arm going up and down . Now do the same move on a slanted golf plane.

Do you release the club head into the back of the ball?

This release seems a little bit different to the "flip" release he also advocates. Feels like hes letting the toe turn over a lot more here. Whereas the flip release seems to keep the club face square for longer, but timing needs to be better. Please do correct me where im wrong ? Thanks

he mentioned centrical forces he know physics in sports 😊

I don’t know which is more faded me or the color of this video

Do you teach the same swing as in the video?

Excelent...golf real

The hard part which no one talks about is hitting the ball in mud fairways when your between 65-90 yrs old then try to repeat any form of success

Simple

Mikes swing is very close to hogans

Wow 🤩 I get it.

Cranky fart, awesome Mike Austin
