How to hit the most reliable shot in golf - the POWER FADE. Learn the legendary golf shot that Jack Nicklaus used frequently to be successful on the tour , THE POWER FADE. The Jack Nicklaus Power Fade is one of the best golf shots that you can use to your advantage on the golf course. There's a reason it's one of the most trusted shots used by Jack Nicklaus and other PGA Tour Pros - it's deadly ACCURATE and, as the name suggests, SUPER POWERFUL.
What I love about the Jack Nicklaus POWER FADE is that you can swing as hard as you want and know that it's going to be in play. With that kind of confidence, you can step up to the tee and FEARLESSLY RIP IT while your golfing buddies stand there in tears from the sheer awesomeness they just witnessed off of your driver face.
The Jack Nicklaus Power Fade is very simple to execute and doesn't require any swing changes - just a couple of minor setup adjustments and you're ready to FULLY SEND IT to the target with the WRATH OF GOD.

Ok Wildman, I made a conscious effort to set up and hit the power fade this morning. It worked! My carry on the first hole was 236 and the second hole carried 271. Similar results on every hole. On holes that called for a draw, I set my feet up opposite from the fade, and again it worked!! BTW I will turn 73 in December⛳️. 🏌🏼👍

@SagutoGolf 4 года назад

271 *_CARRY_* at age 72.6??? Ok - who's the *REAL* Wildman here???????😆 Nicely done!!! Tom

@TheBanjoFlyBoy 4 года назад

SagutoGolf Thanks Tom for the lesson! I watched it just before leaving for an eight o'clock tee time and was able to transfer what you demonstrated to the course. The course was wet from a heavy dew, and no doubt would have rolled further if dry. As an aside, my second shot on the par 5 landed in the middle of the green. Maybe the best back to back shots I've ever made! Missed getting an eagle, but got a birdie. Keep up the good work Wildman🏌🏾

This was a game changer for me because my normal miss was a push, push-fade/slice. So I was always looking for my ball in the bushes on the right lol. So like you say this allows you to swing as hard as you want at it and it will more often than not be a fairway finder. Right now I'm working hard on trying to find the stack and tilt push draw, and I feel I'm right on the edge of getting it, but I do appreciate having this power fade as a tool in my toolbox when I need it. Thanks Tom.

@SagutoGolf 4 дня назад

Great! I'm very glad to know that this lesson aided in your understanding, and now that you are armed with this knowledge I hope you are able to use this S&T-approved power-fade to the betterment of your game. As for that push-draw you desire, ball flight laws - aka shot shaping - are a function of clubface as it relates to path and target line. Clubface relative to target line is the primary influencer of the ball's starting line and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature. So, we grip the club with the face square to the target at the "zero point", which is even with the lead shoulder. We then set our hands in their stock position - even with the inside of the lead thigh, and simply place the clubface behind the ball without any manipulations. If the ball position is behind the hands - as it typically is - then this will result in the face naturally opening a slight amount without any twisting or turning of the hands, thereby setting us up for a powerful push-draw ball flight as long as we have a proper in-to-out downswing path. One of the many great things about this system is that we can move it left or right and flight it high or low with the same swing and just some simple setup adjustments. As an example, here is a shot shaping demonstration featuring a fellow teaching pro when we were attending Stack and Tilt Instructor Camp together in Miami: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IcmKxfLz9EM.html. Beyond this, I have advanced level content on shot shaping and controlling ball flight in the online school. Speaking of the school, if you've not already joined have you considered enrolling and taking your learning - and 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, position-by-position from setup to finish - you'll find diagnostic tools for identifying/resolving swing and ball flight issues when they arise, plus advanced level instruction, and much more. 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 - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result, and their unsolicited testimonials tell the story quite well: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet. Have fun out there learning how to work the ball! Tom Saguto, PGA

@averagejoe9949 4 месяца назад

Yo Wildman, love your power fade instruction. Generally hit the draw but at times push right. Based upon your instruction, started to utilize the proverbial “power fade.” I really felt the full power of the hand of Thor. It was outstanding. Hit every fairway. The key was swinging more on plane. By swinging on plane, it really allowed me to drop in and unleash the right arm of Thor. I utilized my same slight draw stance, aimed a little left of center fairway and moved ball just a little forward. Wow, never felt stronger and more powerful. First time that I really understood and felt what Hogan meant by claiming to want three right arms. It was awesome, great job.

@SagutoGolf 4 месяца назад

*AWESOME!!* 💪💪 I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play. And yes - once you've got the setup properly established you can really go after it with confidence that the ball is going to behave and stay on the short grass. And now you know why so many Tour players - who can obviously draw it on demand - use the power fade as their go-to shape off the tee. Thanks so much for validating this lesson with your results and keep up the great work!! Tom

@jdschultz1230 3 года назад

Hello Mr. Saguto, I would usually start a lot of my shots on line of my target but had a problem turning them over and had a big problem with consistency with my long irons 4, 5, on long par 3's. A few months ago I decided to change my right hand grip to a more neutral position because I found out at set up my clubface was closed. My right hand would sit more towards the side with space between my thumb and pointer finger. I found out after some research that both V's from both hands need to line up and the thumb and pointer finger of right hand need to be pinched together. After doing this the clubface sits square but I've been hitting some really fat shots. I went out and played the other day and tried something different. I practice the one plane swing but because of the issues I was having I decided to go from my usual set up to a fade set up, to start hitting fades. Before grip change I was having trouble fading the ball, even now there's not as much fade but I noticed I was hitting the ball more solid and surprisingly just as far. wedges I could still use old swing. but everything else I hit fades and I hit some nice long irons into greens on par 3's. I'd like to go back to my draw or improve this swing because one problem was control with my driver off the tee. I didn't hit a lot of fairways but didn't miss them by much and sometimes I still have iron shots that slice instead of fade.

@gerardleon2884 3 года назад

I finally developed a very strong draw in order to correct a bad slice. Now I can't fade or slice the ball if my life depended on it! The draw shot feels like the more natural swing....inside to out. I'd like to fade just to be a more complete golfer. But I just can't make it work. I line up as directed but end up pushing the shot right.

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Well, Gerard, yours is not a terrible "problem" - in fact I would say that it's something we have in common!! Anyway, you've got part of this power fade equation correct because it is a push-fade. Just keep tweaking your stance line and club face to get the ball starting and curving where you'd like. Remember - once you have the downswing working properly and approaching from the inside, ball flight rules - aka shot shaping - 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. Cheers!

When you open your stance do you regrip the club, so its effectively as though youve opened the club face? Thank you :-)

@SagutoGolf 11 месяцев назад

Hi Edward, An "open stance" conjures up the notion that the trail leg is set square to the target line and the front leg is set open to it. With the push-fade demonstrated here, our total alignment - feet, knees, hips, shoulders - is to the left (for a right handed player) and the face is set - *_and the club is then gripped_* - open to that alignment, the degree of which is dependent upon the amount of curvature desired. Then we simply swing along our body line and trust that our setup will produce the desired shot shape.

@SagutoGolf 4 года назад

Hi Steve, That's some really nice improvement - great job! I'm glad to know that you have been benefiting from these video lessons on my channel! With regard to your tendency to pull, oftentimes this can occur when the lateral sliding of our hips towards the target - which must occur from the start of the downswing through impact - quits to early. This failure enables the rotational component to take over, rerouting the club across the line and sending the ball to pull city.

So, i went to the garage and found a TM 2009 Burner, and put it in the bag. This past weekend i used it Sat and yesterday. I hit very drive well. Nice high straight and far. Several were crushed. After Saturday i pulled my Epic 5 wood and replaced it with TM Burner and hit 3 nice shots yesterday. Is all this technology a lot of crap. It sure seems that way.

@SagutoGolf 4 года назад

Rich - Any technology can be "crap" if it's not properly suited to you and your swing. If you can bomb your Burner, then there's no reason you can't hit the Rogue every bit as well and probably better if it's professionally fitted in terms of shaft, loft, and movable weight configuration. That would be my suggestion to help you fall in love with your new technology! Tom

@SagutoGolf 4 года назад

Hi GENZ - When playing the stock push-draw shot for the swing that I teach, I do advocate a clubface that is slightly open to the target line and closed to the in-to-out downswing path. Ball flight shaping is 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. While these flight rules were certainly on display in this video, I get into them in far more detail in my online school: saguto.golf/p/golf-swing-simplified-tom-saguto-pga Thanks! Tom

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Well, Jack - I suppose there are worse problems than fighting a chronic push-draw.....😂😂 Just like I say in the video, shift your entire stance line to the left (for a right handed player). Don't just open your front foot; instead adjust your entire body line - feet, hips, shoulders - to the left. Keep the clubface aimed on the desired starting line, which should now be oriented to the right of your open stance line. From there you can just to make your normal swing along your stance line. You should catch the ball on the in-to-out side of the arc just as you would for a push draw, but based on the adjustments you've made the ball should start straight on the clubface line and fade towards the desired final target. Properly executed the degree of stance openness will determine the amount of curvature. If you are still having difficulties then try making minor adjustments to ball position and stance line until the ball starts behaving as desired.

In order to strike the ball on the backside of the swing arc where do you position the ball in your stance? Thanks

@SagutoGolf 3 года назад

Once you have the downswing working properly, Chris, ball flight rules - aka shot shaping - 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. So to strike the ball on the backside of the arc simply means that the ball is positioned sufficiently back where to face is still approaching it from the inside (i.e.: before the zero point after which it turns the corner back to the inside).

Hi Tom how’s it going? I know you stress to cover the lead thumb in the grip but ever since I started doing it my swing has felt awful and I haven’t pured a iron in so long, could it be that I’m not putting to much pressure against the club with that thumb?

@SagutoGolf 4 года назад

Hi Presley - Are you referring to my grip lesson video here?: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g-Oue2IWbd4.html I recommend that the thumbs of both hands not rest directly on top of the handle, nor should they apply any force into it as this will result in tension, affect the action of the hands and wrists in the swing, and lead to a host of other problems. The heel pad of the lead hand is what sits on top of the club's grip. The only thumb-related pressure point I advocate is the pad of the trail hand pushing *_slightly_* downward - and I do mean *_slightly_* - where it folds on top of the lead thumb. Beyond that, as I demonstrate and reinforce in the video - the grip is primarily held in the last three fingers of the lead hand and the middle and ring fingers of the trail hand. I hope this helps! Tom

So if we set the face towards the left half of the fairway and angle our stance line slightly open to it we should expect a drive that finds the center or right half of the short grass.

Surprisingly not, Toby. The stock shot for this swing is a push-draw. This occurs with the stance line parallel to the target line, a club face that is slightly open to the target line while closed to the downswing path, and a contact point occurring on the rear side of the arc (meaning that impact is happening while the club is still traveling on its in-to-out route). There is no need to close the stance or the clubface in order to hit a draw with this swing. Trying to do so will likely cause undesirable results. I hope this makes sense! Thanks, Tom

I assume they've got their own games all figured out and have nothing but time on their hands to "help" you??😆 If you're hitting it just 5 yards right of your intended target and the ball flight and contact are good, then try this: Address the ball as if you were going to hit a shot at a specific target. Then have a friend place alignment sticks down on the target line and your foot line. Step away from the ball and have a look at the sticks from behind. Does the target stick point at the target? Is your foot line stick parallel to the target stick? Oftentimes our setup is wholly responsible for misdirected shots and yet we try to make adjustments to a swing that was functioning correctly!

I'll probably try it out, you were my favourite guitar youtuber! Having said that, i'm not much into golf but i'll recommend this channel ro my friends. I wish you luck in your career!!!

A great tip but far too advanced for where I am in my game...still struggling to compress the ball.

chazjanis - Have you considered enrolling in the SagutoGolf online school? For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only system for the full swing, the short game, and much more. The school's intuitive course curriculum greatly simplifies the entire process through succinct, step-by-step videos, and I'm constantly adding new content. This will really put you on the fast track towards learning everything in a well-organized, self-guided fashion! There's even a members' forum where you can ask me specific swing-related questions and suggest new content ideas. Here's a link if you'd like additional info: saguto.golf/p/golf-swing-simplified-tom-saguto-pga. I hope to see you there!! Tom
