  1. Nice instruction, I just would like to add that you dont hold the club with
    the thumb/tumbpad, you hold it with the fingers and the heelpad of the
    hand. The tumb is more fore directional purposes in this video.?

  2. There are a number of ways to close the club-face beyond impact, and you
    will find that straightening the right forearm (right hand golfer) will
    make it easier to rotate the club-face. Yes it is possible to square up the
    face by rotating your hands using the muscles in the forearms however by
    establishing a grip that helps you to do this without thinking about it,
    with the help of a straightening right forearm, I have found that golfers
    learn to master this move more easily.?

  3. Great video instruction. Thank you so much for sharing this. Now, just a
    comment on one of your points: I think you mentioned in the video, that
    you cannot close the club face by turning the hands thru impact, but,
    instead have to rely on proper grip to do so. IMHO, this is false: I have
    a very weak grip, but can square, or even close the club face thru impact
    by rotating my hands anti-clock-wise thru impact with a great success. Any
    comments on this would be greatly appreciated !?

  4. Tried this method today at the range. It immediately brought my drives back
    from a slice, to hitting straight and further. Thanks Lawrie for your easy,
    yet concise teaching method.?

  5. OMG thanks you so much for this video. My first tee I did your fix and hit
    it right down the middle.
    On my fifth hole HOLE IN ONE a ace
    Thanks again!!!!!!?

  6. Good instructional drill tips, I tried this at the driving range and it
    greatly improved my slice. THANKS !?

  7. This tip (left thumb on the right hand side of the shaft – as opposed to
    being straight down the top of the shaft, or slightly to the right on
    the top of the shaft – as promoted by many others) is the best I’ve seen
    after viewing hundreds of golf-related videos over the last 3 years. It
    promotes easy release of the club head through impact (no more blocked
    shots) and increased power (5 metres to 15 metres increase in distance,
    depending on the club). The wrist hinge demonstration is great. Absolutely
    brilliant. Thanks. ?

  8. Thanks for your advice, I’ll definitely make sure I’m closer in my next
    series. Thanks for sharing your comments.

  9. Thank you for sharing your amazing success with me and I wish you continued
    success with your golf.

  10. So this is great. But my club face is almost at the two o’clock position at
    address. Is this too much? It has helped my always being left. I am a
    southpaw. Great explanation.

  11. It might be helpful for you to video your swing so you can find out where
    your hands are so you can work out where they have to go. The you might
    find that the information in this video can help you to achieve a better
    impact. Thanks for sharing your comments and good luck with your game.

  12. I’m glad my video has helped you to gain more confidence with your swing
    and I wish you the best with your golf and thanks for taking the time to
    share your comments.

  13. Love your tips, clear and obvious. I dont slice or push any shots EXCEPT
    with the driver. 3 and 5 wood and 3 iron utility club and all irons
    straight and true. 85% of drives good and straight then WHAM out of the
    blue I’m 3 or 5 off the tee with a drive in the next (right hand) county.
    Not Happy obviously but I’ll try your left hand position and see what
    happens. Barry J

  14. Really glad to read that my golf lesson has helped you. Keep practicing and
    working on the weak skills as this will lead to lower golf scores and a lot
    more fun playing this great game. Thanks for sharing your comments and the
    best of luck.

  15. The best of luck with it Jeff and I appreciate you sharing your comments.
    There are plenty of videos for you to study and learn from at my golf
    channel Jeff that can help you to keep making progress with your game.

  16. Thanks a million! Amazing how a slight shift got me straight on line, plus
    allows for a draw with just a slight out-to-the-right swing! I had
    stubbornly held on to the “left wrist must squarely face target” myth
    (which often left my shots either offline to the right &/or
    fading/slicing).. I look forward to reviewing your other tips!

  17. I’m sorry I haven’t put together any videos on the right hand as yet. The
    right hand is important to monitoring and sensing the clubhead throughout
    the golf swing. The key is to let it ride on the left hand and not become
    involved in starting the downswing. Thanks for sharing your comments and
    the best of luck to you.

  18. Hi Lawrie, thanks for the tip, could you please do a video or clear up a
    matter for me, which is better interlock grip or overlap (vardon) and why.
    I hear that people say it’s whichever you’re more comfortable with. I can
    hit both fairly well however overlap better. I have big hands, using XL
    even XXL gloves, I would really appreciate it.

  19. It’s good to read that you sorted your grip out through trial and error.
    Keep up the great work and thanks for taking the time to share your success
    with me. Great minds think alike lol

  20. That’s great! Keep up the good work and thanks for letting me know how you
    went with it.
