Really like this video - glad to know Milo has to constantly ensure he doesn’t drop down during takeaway. I struggle with that and posture drift - armpits drifting over toes.
If slo mo was the way to learn golf swings, Tiger Woods woulda done it - and he did! I love this for one extra reason: as I grow older and 5 decades of sports injuries get more arthritic, it limits my practice reps. This is zero impact. My best ball striking round ever, 15 on green or fringe, came playing with a 77-year-old Asian man, Bruce, who was still 7 handicap and had a beautifully unrushed swing and tempo that rubbed off on me. I asked how much he practiced and he said he did 90% of his practice in his head. I just put a pair of crutches down yesterday, but feel like tomorrow I can do some slo mo swings, and slo mo versions of the drills from Milo's online lessons, into my net. Thanks!
As someone who has spent 3 months seeing no change in video but feeling huge differences, and also getting sore from reps this winter, Im going to be doing this a lot in the coming weeks.
Thanks guys- this was incredibly helpful. I’m a former football player and when you said all sports slow it down to get more efficient. This is so true. At receiver I ran my routes slow in order to capture my footwork. I have never flushed my irons while rotating my body like this! Sending to all my friends. 🙌🏾
@@MiloLinesGolf Coming back to tell you I broke 80 with my best score of 78 and then shot a 80 the round after. So much consistency now. Thank you for your help, your methods work!
I have found when making changes what helps is working on the movement slowly where you can feel it and making a commitment to do it very correctly and not fall into the mentally lazy pattern of doing lots of reps that feel good and are not precise. When I make a change I tell the brain what it is going to be doing by only doing it right so it understands that is what it's future is. Initially it will be mentally draining as it is different to what you are used to doing so you won't be able to do as many reps and progress can be measured by not only doing the move you are working on better but being able to do more reps then after a while you gradually speed up but always fall back on speed to imprint detail.
... really good info/presentation here. How much active (conscious) slap (trail hand/wrist flexion) might you put into a full swing, particularly coming into impact?
Hi Milo ! Love your videos. I have a difficult question Love to know your views descriptively. In my practice swing i have more hips close, chest close, more shallow(inside) right path like severe draw but in actual swing with ball , mind compensates with hips, shoulders open, left path for hitting straight shot till impact and then in follow through also the swing path goes to the right till one moment before finish. and then it goes to normal at last and manages to get a straight shot. Because if it replicates practice swings then I can miss the ball. In other words at practice the swing club is more behind at the delivery position and in actual swing the club is more outside at the delivery position. I think if I fix this open move in Actual swing by making a close move with my body then I am doing the wrong fix. Because it is fake open. So If I Fix like a severe draw move (which happens in practice swing) By making my Hips more open in downswing then it is the right fix. But not sure. Do you see such pattern? How would you fix this?
Really interesting and helpful! Just a couple of points… can you plz explain the release pattern in this slo-mo video? Should club’s leading edge still match spine angle on back swing? Will this type of rotation encourage a laid down and stuck club position as M. Malaska used to say? He now seems to be promoting similar “A” swing movements.
We have a few videos on releasing the club that will explain our preference and in our view stuck has nothing to do with laying the shaft down but everything to do with how you do it. Slide tilters get stuck flexion rotators do not.
This is ONE ELEMENT for how to learn a new motor skill. There are others (that you use). You chunk things down into pieces. You use exaggerated feels in drill to create a smaller version of that motion in the real swing. You use mental concepts. I would love to see a SERIES ON HOW TO LEARN MOTOR SKILLS from you.
Learning and improving a motor movement translates to the creation of a new neural pathway in the brain . This new neural pathway is initially weak , so numerous repetitions are required to strengthen them . The longer and faster the movement ( golf swing) , the more difficult that it is to create an improved and correct neural pathway But the creation of this new neural pathway is only the first step and is often less difficult than reverting back to the old , incorrect ,well ingrained neural pathway.The longer and faster the movement ( golf swing) , the greater the chances are that a golfer will revert back to the old , incorrect patterns. Milo’s suggestions are 100% compatible to these two aspects of learning a new swing . I would like to add two more points 1. The older a golfer , the less “plastic” the brain is and the more difficult that it is to create new neural pathways in the brain. But the goods news is that the brain is more plastic than previously thought ; thus even older golfers can learn new motor patterns , even if it is more difficult than for younger golfers 2. Every swing which is longer than the 9-3 swing will also contain errors present in the 9-3 swing, so it behooves golfers to perfect their 9-3 swing before moving to the faster and longer full swing
As a challenge, Milo, Henry, Ed, Blake And Zach should all enter a local professional event, may be twice a year, to really put the channel under the pressure challenge.
I like it. I’m going to try to make time for at least an event or 2 this year. Blake has won state opens and many mini tour events. Ed is a great player as is Henry but his playing takes a backseat to his wife’s.
@@MiloLinesGolf Then Henry should do video lesson with his wife for a few holes and talk us through decision making on the bag. Unless he caddies for his wife the way my mate caddies for his, he turns up, keeps up and shuts up.
Once again, what a great video immediately after I saw this, I went to the back and started doing it. Thank you again Milo and Henry you guys are awesome! Hopefully, we will have another two days school in San Diego this year.
I took a lesson from a pro that was a tremendous ball striker. He asks me to hit some drivers. I proceed to hit some balls but threw in a few snap hooks, the reason I was taking the lesson. He asks me to take a full swing but hit it 100 yards. Well, the results were not good and I asked “why?” He said if I can’t hit it straight 100 yards I can’t expect to hit it straight 250.
It’s just like weight lifting. Every month you have to lift light to failure once a week. Than you can go back to heavy. Shocking the body making it guess what will happen next is how muscles grow. Can’t get in the same routine or you will never make gains

Beautiful!
This is great. Exactly what I needed to see.
Thanks for watching Jamie!
This is by a mile the most helpful golf tutorial channel ever. Thank you so much for all the uploads
Wow, thanks!
Great video Milo and Henry. I first heard about this from the great Harvey Penick. He said the slower the better
He was a great coach!
This is GREAT advice. And very, very hard to do. Having the discipline to practice slowly, with intention. Over and over. Thank you!
For sure, but so worth it! Thanks for watching Eric.

Let me know how I can be of help Wes.
4:26 in, perfect swing. Going to the range tomorrow and copying.
👊

Love this. Absolutely consistent with principles of deliberate practice as stated by the master of mastery research, Anders Ericsson.
Thanks for watching Joseph!

Depends on what trajectory I’m creating

I cover other aspects on my online academy at milolinesgolf.com, but each individual also has their own needs.
@Milo Lines Golf what current professional would you say swings in this fashion the most?
Cameron Young, Sam Burns, Joaquin Nieman, Mito Pereira, Victor Hoveland, and many others
Milo, how long does this take to implement? I’ve developed 20 years worth of early extension, and I can’t rotate to save my life.
Hey Jake, have I seen your swing? If not I would suggest scheduling a lesson or joining my online academy at milolinesgolf.com.

Hey if you can’t do it slow you have no chance doing it at speed … good stuff!
I would tend to agree!
Once again, what a great video immediately after I saw this, I went to the back and started doing it. Thank you again Milo and Henry you guys are awesome! Hopefully, we will have another two days school in San Diego this year.
You're the man Ned!!
Is there a preferred club you guys like to practice with?
9 or 8 iron typically, but depends on what aspect of the game we are also trying to improve...but for our foundations, 9 iron is always a good bet.
I took a lesson from a pro that was a tremendous ball striker. He asks me to hit some drivers. I proceed to hit some balls but threw in a few snap hooks, the reason I was taking the lesson. He asks me to take a full swing but hit it 100 yards. Well, the results were not good and I asked “why?” He said if I can’t hit it straight 100 yards I can’t expect to hit it straight 250.
Sounds like a smart pro!
You almost killed Milo at 1:49!
🙏
🤣
Slow is smooth and smooth is fast. Golfing or playing the guitar.
=)
Takes stones to put the net there with those windows in play
I don’t plan on missing the net 😉

Love it
I guess you two don't ski. It's one of the best sports to apply slowing down.
We both ski actually, probably too fast for our own good 😂
Milo, how long does this take to implement? I’ve developed 20 years worth of early extension, and I can’t rotate to save my life.
It depends sometimes immediately and sometimes it’s more of a journey.
