Anything are 1 second would be good. A little less or more is fine too. I
think I am 1.2 seconds. I like going back slower to keep my arms powerless
as I go back.
Really interesting and insightful video thank you! Really helpful!
Awesome, thank you!!! This is solely the reason i kept slicing, really help
with my body rotation.
Thank you Paul for all these tips, i practiced some for about two weeks an
hour a day and already its transformed my game and im using garbage golf
clubs, can’t overstate how listening and putting this stuff into practice
has alterd my experience of the game
Your wrists are loose. The forces acting on the mass will want to make the
mass swing to its widest point. So you are not purposely whipping anything.
It is whipping because it is loose.
Slow down. At the range there is a ball. At home there is no ball. So get
it slowly first then speed it up in stages.
Great stuff. I love hearing it.
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback and support.
I have found your tips very helpful. Are you recommending loose wrists on
the backswing resulting in a big wrist hinge? I notice some tour players do
not present a pronounced wrist hinge on the backswing.
If you are swinging too much inside out and you release it a little too
much you will hit the top right quadrant of the ball creating a duck hook.
You need a neutral grip and more turn int he downswing instead of lateral.
This will get the path going more down the line. The neutral grip will
reduce the spin. It’s 2 parts which very few people are willing to fix.
My technique will be great for anyone but especially you because it does
not hurt at all. Glad you found me and I wish you continued success.
This is telling you that your arms are buckling through impact. This is
adding loft to the club. You need to let them stretch out fully just after
impact plus you need to get the weight off your back foot through impact.
Do these 2 things and the flight will lower.
In the backswing you can only hinge your wrists the amount the bones in
your wrists allow the club to hinge so I would no say this a big wrist
hinge. It is your wrist hinge. Keep the wrists loose and hinge the club to
the maximum you can in the backswing. I have had many students that I just
cannot get them to hinge less than 90 degrees because the wrist bones don’t
allow this to happen.
No this does not promote a flippy swing. I am seeing the wrists as a hinge.
There is no resistance in a hinge. The looser they are the faster they
swing plus the forces acting on the mass is what will be squaring the club.
If you are trying to square the face good luck. You have about 2 degrees
room for error at 250 yards. Use forces acting on the mass. This repeats
consistently. Watch some more of my vids to get a better feel for what I
teach.
If you are not trying to hook it and it is hooking your grip is too strong.
You need to see 2 knuckles of the top hand and fingers of the bottom hand
with the V between the back ear and shoulder. You get this and it will be
very difficult to hook it.
Very good. It’s a feeling of not hitting or helping it in any way. Focus on
using your body rotation to hit your shots and you will have no problem
with distance.
Paul, you’re lessons are amazing! I’ve recently started golfing again after
a car accident which left me unable to do anything physically demanding. I
started watching your videos and your explinations and insrruction have
enabled me to actually enjoy golf once again. I have used your methods and
have noticed a considerable amount of comfort in comparison to how I had
learned previously. Using my body properly has had dramtic results. Now to
improve my game! Thank you so much! Melissa
I post here every now and again. I have over 400 tips on my Ignition Golf
site.
Thanks for getting back to me, but I still have a concern. I was playing by
myself, shooting a good score. Caught up to another player, got to the last
hole, tried to finish off a good score in front of someone. While trying to
swing nice and slow, my wrists snapped two drives into the trees left.
That’s why I asked about the flippiness of this technique. Any suggestions
as to why I would do this under pressure using this technique? Thanks.
Do you intentionally whip your wrists around to get the speed, or does
keeping your wrists loose do that automatically? thanks
Hi Paul, Thanks for your very interesting videos ! When I try this, I get a
pretty good feeling in front of the mirror at home. But on the practice
range, it always ends up with pushes with short irons and big slices with
the driver ! Like if the club & arms are lagging behind my body turn… Any
hint ?! 😉 (I am 8-handicap)
you been alot of help to me, this year i started playing golf again, i
learn the game from Hogans book as a kid, which worked for me, but watching
your videos you really helped alot i am playing better now than i ever have
, just want to say thanks for your videos
having loose wrists help my game a lot. Good tip
Paul, thanks for the golf instruction. I don’t get to play as much as I
would like, but you’re instructions definitely help! I use to be very
“armsy,” but after following you on YouTube, I have been playing much
better.
Fantastic advice which has really helped. Moises in London.
