Ready to hit 250 yd bombs now!
Ok then Bryson shit son I’m ready for the 100 😂
I actually don't use jumping technique, just using body rotation and keep the face square. Usually carry 265-270 yd
@@LeoBeebe I think the take away here is for folks like you that want to hit it farther. If you’re ok with your distance then nothing to see here. But you should know you’re leaving several yards on the table. Some value fairways more than distance, but many pros have started putting more value on distance over fairways. To each their own. 🤷♂️
@Philip Liawis shit thats more than enough for the courses we play
*240
Im by no means a good golfer, but I have noticed when my grip is lighter and I am not trying to crush the ball from the top, I get more consistent contact, better flight path and my teammates say I don’t look like I am swinging the club fast but the ball is still getting bombed (for me 250 at nearly 60 years old). I like how you explained the ground aspect and I am going to start working on that. Thanks Tig
If you try to hit the ball from the top your body tenses up and you just drag and flip the club through impact. The best sequence is to be fast at the ball not at the top of your swing.
YES!! I just requested this from you on one of your recent videos. So cool to see, man. Love it!
Enjoy all the content Micah but this video hit different. Well done, easy to understand, can't wait to get to the range and use some of the tips. Keep grinding.
I played with a guy last weekend who was small (5’7”, 145-150 lbs), but he produced so much club head speed. He had a great golf swing that was short, compact, and efficient. I could imagine that his swing was very similar to yours. In comparison, I’m 6’3” and I have 100 pounds on him, but he was driving past me about 20 yards… from the black tees with me playing the blues. Honestly, I am not obsessed with distance, but I am obsessed with efficiency. My swing is not nearly as efficient as it should be. I will apply what I learn here.
Good stuff Tig, i like the whip analogy especially in regards to waiting and letting it snap at a precise moment instead of just snapping it whenever's convenient!
Best driver explanation on YT hands down
Micah, you've really got to be proud of this video. There is REALLY good information in this post. This type of video really showcases how authentically you're trying to help golfers find a better drive. Thanks for sharing this! Peace from Canada! 🤟🤟
Micah Micah Micah, thank you Thank you!!!!!!!! Golfing since the 80’s but a week ago still hitting driver around 160 only!!! Then stumbled onto your “do these 4 things” vid. Better than any vid (or coach) ever. Had to write because you are the best teacher in the USA!
Your vid, but more specifically, one word, BULLWHIP!!!! Changed my golf forever. I think I duck hooked a few drives way back in 1980, and I had been locked up, tighter than $&#&, in fear, for 45 years. Slicing and spinning garbage to avoid the duck, for 45 years.
Until your word …….so descriptive, like snapping a whip, the best way to distance.
Yesterday, hit among others, two drives of 198!! Seriously,
Whip it!
Thank you Micah!!!!
Best explanation I heard, have a day Mr. Morris
YES, thank you.I watch your old driver video a few times a week. nice to get an update and see if anything has changed
Love this kind of video from you Tig. Would be interested to know what aspects of your driver swing you carryover to your iron swing, such as how much you use the ground force, grip pressure etc. May be an idea for a future video. Great stuff!
This is a really awesome side of you Micah! You should do more instructionals, love the analogies!!
This is one of the best explanations of the driver swing I have seen, especially the swing slow at the start and fast from last parallel. More content like this please. Subscribed.
I've watched so many videos claiming to help us hit the driver better, this is up there with the best. And seeing how you hit the driver in your course vlogs, I consider this a much better source then most club pros. Well done, great advice, in an easy to understand format, which we can take straight to the driving range. Would be great to see more of this type of content from you 👏
Thank you for all your help here! Much appreciated I’m sure it is going to aid in improving my driving greatly. Watch your videos lots… Love them keep them coming!
Best " no nonsense" instruction ever!!!!
Excellent tutorial and 'feels' well explained. Effortless power Micah very impressive!
What a great piece. Just came back from the range and it was very promising. It was so well instructed this video. Cant wait to get more. Hitting long sand shots I think is very hard. That would be a nice video to watch.
Love and peace from Sweden.
You may not be a professional instructor but you covered the driver better than anyone else's videos that I have seen. Thank you.
This video is terrific and just makes a ton of sense. I started working out and concentrated on squats and leg press and I gained a lot of distance. When I stopped working out, I lost that distance.
Now this is one of the best explanation of swinging the driver. Great info
Totally.agree, excellent tutorial.and what effortless Power Micah has..!!
Loved the graphics and simplicity of the video and some great tips in here. The forearm one was great, never seen that anywhere before and I always mess with my forearms at setup not knowing how they should be. Would love to see a video for your irons and how to manipulate your swing for a lower/higher shot. Would also be dope if you could incorporate some slo-mo into the next one of these! Thanks Tig 👍🏼
Don't forget width. I'm the same build and surprise people with how far I hit it. I used to hit it far in baseball and softball too. Using the ground in conjunction with hitting up is huge. I like a slightly open left hip to promote clearing. And yes, tension kills. Once you have decent mechanics and can trust your swing, relax and let it fly.
A lot of people knock Micah, and I have no idea why. This guy grew up on a farm and was pretty much self taught. Now he’s playing golf with some of the best players in the world. I’m happy for him.
Thanks Micah! Will learn these steps for sure.
Watch this yesterday and I must say this is the best driver instruction video I have ever seen. I went to the range today an wanted to try out using the ground to generate more speed. I hit bombs! So I thought why not play a few holes. I played 3 holes, hit fairway on every one and on all 3 I hit the longest drives I have ever done. I was about 25-30 yards longer than my earlier best drives and about 50-60yards longer than my normal average. Thanks Tig!
Thanks Tig, that was some great info. I’ve definitely been struggling with my driving. I’ll try these tips out.
Your videos are great. So clean, simple and to the point👌
My last round I did Micah’s speed tip I learned from his videos earlier. My tee shots were further and more controlled which made golfing more fun. It feels so much more controlled and actually creates more speed than swinging from the top which seems counter intuitive.
Thanks Tig. Very good content. I hope it works on old folks that want to hit farther. Yes I want to hear more. Do fairway woods, hybrids, irons, wedges and how to hit them properly, compress or scrape it off the ground.
Excellent video. You do a great job showing it visually and makes it earlier to understand. Like how you broke it down to the sections and illustrated each area separately.
Thank you‼️Clear “ground” rules👍Well explained. Can’t wait to check them out in my next practice session.
Awesome video and simply put for all of us to understand..Nice job Micah
Hi Micah! Thanks for this video, it really helped me improve my drive significantly!
This was a good video. You do bomb it for sure and generally keep it in the fairway, which is the most important thing. Appreciate the tips and will implement them moving forward. More videos like this would be great. Thanks.
This helped me a lot. Thanks Micah!!
Great video Micah!! Thank you 😊
This is great micah and helped me with my slice and added 20-30 yards of distance. Thank you!
Good instructional video Micah. Sound advice all around. I played yesterday and shot a -1 par 71 at Ridgeview Ranch in Allen Texas. Hit every fairway down the middle and long, aiming left on my setup. I was sure not to get my right hand too far on top with my grip, to help square my shoulders. This helped me feel setup behind the ball better too. My left hand showed maybe 2 knuckles tops on the grip (not too strong). My grip pressure was light and comfortable (no death grip). My takeaway was low and straight back as far as possible. I concentrated on not breaking my wrists, especially because doing so would hurt since my right wrist is injured and I had it wrapped. Because my wrist was injured, I think this helped me concentrate on not taking the club back too fast, which gave me more time to get the club set at the top. My ball position was inside my left foot. I like this better than too far forward off the left toe because I watched a video of pro Justin Thomas hit his driver in slow motion and I could see that his club shaft was highly distorted on the downswing because of the torque generated just before release at impact, but once his clubhead traveled to his left foot, that bow in the shaft had already straightened out making me believe the clubhead was now slowing back down by then. Your idea of using the ground to push off of is awesome. I am a tennis player too and I see your point. On an open stance forehand swing I push off the ground with my legs to create power. I will concentrate on using the ground more for leverage with my golf swing.
The quality of this video is awesome. The sound, transitions, and videography was on point. Nice job!
Very helpful! Would like to see more of this kind of content!
Another great teaching video Tig! I learned the same grip pressure from the very old Jack Nicholas video "Golf My Way".
Keep them coming!
Very nice.....greeting from Nairobi Kenya!....simple and to the point......your better than many pros who have too many swing science..keep it up.......👍🏾
Very well done video, you made it very easy to understand and things i havent seen in other videos. Great break down and i cant wait to try these things out for myself
Thanks for the video. I loved hearing your tips.
Great tips...thanks Micah..
Thanks for the tips, I watched your lead foot closely and saw it moved a bit after you jumped off the ground. I was under the impression that to keep my foot steady. Well, not anymore lol. You have gotten so much better now bro, hope you could make it to the pro. good luck. ⛳👊
great stuff, best explanation i have heard and seen
The advice for setting up properly really helped me. Was able to tighten my miss hits and get that nice long fade!
Thank you 🙏 for the great tips! ⛳️
Great content dude. Love the grip pressure segment
Liking this style content from you. Simple explanations.
Thanks Micah. Very nice and informative video.
FANTASTIC video. Keep it up Micah!
Definitely more of this. Maybe some key swing thoughts to get ready for a shot
Best video I’ve seen. Thanks!
Great stuff. Can't wait to try it
Great content Micah. The Ventus shafts are dope. You should do a video with your yardages. Also a video of 100 yards and in chip shots and bunker shots. Maybe a video of you hitting different premium golf balls with the spin rates and distances measured. Keep up the great work man
My Ventus driver shaft broke recently while just brushing the ground lightly with the clubhead to loosen my wrists. So I bought an Aldila NVS burnt orange shaft senior flex and it works great. Hit all 18 fairways yesterday (and missed only one green, but got up and down for par) to shoot -1 under par 71. Shout out to the folks at Clubfinders in Plano Texas for putting me on to this Aldila shaft which I am loving. Micah's content is very sound advice and is what I used yesterday to shoot 71.
It is great to understand your thought process on the swing - thanks! Now all I need to do is execute.
Love this type of video! You’ve mentioned being in the weight room; a cool video would be some specific exercises you use to translate into your golf game
Nice one Micah, more of this please
Great Instruction Micah!💣💣💣
great tips and a better explanation than a long list of teaching pros especially as to using the ground
I’m 5’4, 145 and I can out drive most of the players I play with. I’m honestly not bragging or trying to sound cool. I play with some big guys who hit it far. I bought the new Stealth driver with the Ventus 5-S shaft and I know it added on average 20-25 yards to my drives. The pro at my course confirmed the same after he bought one. Now my average drives are 285-310 yards depending on fairway conditions and wind direction/speed. I can’t wait to hit the range tomorrow and focus on all 4 points. Thank you!
Really liked the positioning and grip tips!
Wow, thanks kid, I will be trying these tips, and YES, keep these tips coming!!!
I thought this was a very well planned and executed. For a non-teaching pro, you have a strong grasp of what you are both trying to do and actually doing.
Exactly what we want to hear, tips to gain swing speed.
More like this please!
Using the ground! That is a new one for me!
I always used to think there were 3 power sources for gaining speed:
- The wrists
- The body rotation around the spine
- The weight shift from right to left
But I never thought about the 'jump effect' while moving form right to left as a power source.
Very interesting! I am gonna try that to gain more meters at the course!
Great explanation Micah! I’m going to make a few adjustments based on what you said.
Micah: Great lesson video. Thank you.
This was some real good insight...nice work!👍
Enjoyed this, chilled and engaging teaching style.
I love these kinds of tips.
that was great , yes to more.
thank you Micah you've changed my driver game. I'm hitting the furthest and straightest I ever have I just went and played nine and was carrying my driver like 280. I shot 35 one under all because those driver tips lol thx.
Great explanation Micah, thank you! golf swing speed and accuracy was explained to me based on physics - you want all your speed generated when the club is travelling toward the target. So going fast from the top doesn't help because the club is initially travelling away from the target. But when hands hit hips, your club is now travelling toward the target and that is where you want your speed to come in. Also, just a silly thing I found interesting - once you start your swing, there are two times the club head speed is at zero 1. at the top 2. at the finish. By rushing the club to the top in your backswing, you could be causing inaccuracy. Rory will disagree, but for me that has been critical.
I like the Tig analogy. I like these videos. I'd like to see more. Honestly, you pointing out the trail arm not to be turned over, and breaking down the squat-jump portion related to me. Cant wait to try it out on the range
A trail arm higher than lead arm makes it impossible to swing inside to out
@dw349 makes sense. Probably why I struggled
This is a great video - could use more of these!
I have watched a lot of driver videos, this is the best of them all. Explained wonderful, I will save and watch again. Only on the grip pressure will I not do what is recommended. Have a very heavy swing weighted driver and have to grip it very tight.
Haven’t ever seen this channel before. I learned a lot, video was really well made. Good stuff!
I’ve been waiting for this!!! 💥
Quality swing tip breakdown 👍
Super helpful.....Thanks!!!!
Good vidéo well done Micah !! I love the concept
Thanks, very useful thoughts. Do want to see more snippets.
Fascinating..Best video yet
Great information! 👍🏾
That was great. My dad and I were talking about where swing speed is created yesterday.
Looking forward to applying some of these to my swing. I'm a similar height to you, although probably 15-20 lbs lighter. I don't hit my drives far (250 would be a good one for me), so I'm always looking for ways to increase my distance.
Thanks for the pointers, keep up the amazing work!
Adding some weight and strength will 100% add some distance to your drives as well to go along with these tips
lets go!! I'm going to try some of that for sure
Great job sir!
Thanks Tig! I’ll listen to anything you say about a swing and might just integrate into my program… but I’ll stick to my own left and rights lol. Right arm Tig, that was your right arm haha
Nicely explained Micah 👍
Thanks, Micah. 👍
The best video you've ever made.
Great video Micah .
Thanx I will keep and watch again
True statement about indentions in the ground. When I was younger and doing range time I would start to leave indentions in the ground.
