  3. Feel a little “pinch” on left upper arm & chest is the best tip for me.
    This definitely helped me shift my focus away from using the right arm too
    much, and dropping the left arm really helped me from flipping at impact.
    Thanks a lot for the instructional video!?

  4. The first part of the down swing is exactly what I always need to work on
    (having been a twenty year slicer).?

  6. Well made video. I’m not here to criticize , but just wanted to add that
    dropping your left arm down (to start the downswing) is for the those that
    have a higher left arm at the top of the swing. Those who have a lower left
    arm at the top would get out sequence if the left arm/hands dropped
    straight down. The right elbow/arm would get stuck high & back (position
    promoted by Jim Hardy). This results in an early release and weak shots
    that have no consistency in direction or distance.
    As I’m sure you’re aware, Mr. Hogan moved his hands towards the golf ball
    to start the downswing and definitely never down. Nicklaus dropped his arm
    down because of a much higher left arm at the top.
    Good job on making the video as it takes a lot of time and effort. Not to
    mention that giving golf instruction to the masses is never easy. ?

  7. Another excellent video. Well explained and demonstrated straight to the
    point. I will certainly review this video over again while working on my
    swing. Keep up! Cheers?

  8. Wow! The best swing advice I have had in my three years of watching
    “youtube golf coaches”. The very best!?

  9. I have to say, I’ve watched a lot of swing tip videos and the information
    in this one has actually really helped me. The 45 degree checkpoint in the
    back swing and the low left arm through impact have made a huge difference
    in my swing. Thanks for some actual instruction and not just generic info.?

  11. great great advise/tip!! I’m now hitting the ball more consistently,
    straighter, and longer!! Best tip I’ve ever received…..ready for a round?

  16. Thanks for sharing the tips Mike. The part with dropping your left arm low
    at impact has given me something to take to the range and fix my over the
    top move. Cheers!

  17. Thanks for the great video and many others. You really hit the point on
    areas other instructors do not talk about.

  18. This works so well. The ” Arm into the body” and “feels very low” really
    did it for me. Focusing on these tips really clicked in my brainpan. I’m at
    a new level now. So much power and consistency in the hit. Sounds like
    Suryanto’s post describes Stretching and lifting the shoulder away from the
    body going back and/or coming down. Can’t do that. It’s not true body
    torque and really messes things up. You want torque. And Keep that left arm
    straight until “very low”

  20. Thanks for the great video. The huge thing for me was the left arm being at
    a 45 degrees going back. I have struggled with getting the club behind me,
    not on the target line. This gives me a whole new feeling and check point.
    Also showing how the left arm works the club down is the clearest “slot”
    position. Thanks again.

  21. Really appreciate the tip. Have been trying many things to improve my
    shoulder turn, down swing and impact. The clarity of your instructions have
    simplified my swing thoughts.Tried this tip on the range recently.
    Immediately improve on the ball striking and balance. Greatly reduced
    sculling and hitting behind the ball. Can’t wait to get on the course.
    Thank you.

  23. fantastic video i was really struggling in hitting the ball consistently,
    you explained it perfectly – very simple – i went to the range after
    watching your video a couple times and wow i’m excited to go play a round
    with the guys now! thank you
