Thank you so much for the contribution. I truly appreciate it. Glad to help. Pretty much every golfer pushes and pulls. This is just a simple way to fix it.
Paul I want to thank you for this awesome lesson. My pull is now under control. Just came from the range and hit best iron shots in a long time That shift at the top is an amazing tip Thanks again
Very good. So easy to fix. People are looking in the wrong area. Normally they would try to hold the face more open. It's not a face problem. It's a body problem. Keep at it.
Thank you so much! Have been pushing the ball with the driver for last few weeks. Took a video of my swing and I have a crazy amount of lateral movement just like you said.
I already kind of knew all this, but I really needed someone to explain it to me and show me. This is a great video. This summer is going to be a good one.
Paul, I have been watching your videos on You Tube since January. Sorry, I haven't bought your program but have used your You Tube videos to steadily improve my ball striking. Let it be said, I work at a golf course and have mentioned your program to countless golfers as they pass by me. I discovered while playing a gentleman that he uses your program. He talked about turning his hips faster through the swing cuz of his pushing the ball to the right. I looked on You Tube for one of your videos on this problem. Long story short, I worked on this drill and last Saturday, I shot a 76 in the Club Championship. My ball striking could not have been better and I had more distance. Thanks!
Glad you are watching and working on it and improving. Thank you too for telling others. I truly appreciate the support and help spreading the word. Wow! 76 is great. So glad to hear. It's in the hips but with super loose wrists. Keep doing what you are doing. Sounds like you are on track to me. Set your sights on winning the CC next year. That would be a great goal.
Easy to fix. Just think turn. If you want a draw then you need to master the release. You hit the top and roll it until each shot has hook spin. Once you consistently hook a few then you go back to firing your lower body as you have been. Then it will start right and draw back. ruclips.net/video/mp8MriLZ4sg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/UicfEiofJis/видео.html
Your method has dramatically changed my game. I am so happy I purchased your program. Your are very engaging and explain the swing positions in a easily and logically. Thank you so much from Ontario Canada!!
That's great! So glad you are improving. Thanks for the support. You do know I grew up in Canada. I started the golf school at Angus Glen. I was the Director of Instruction there for 6 years before moving to the US.
Timely video. Today on the range was pushing. Tightened my turn started pulling a little not bad. Need to find the right mix. That video you just did on what to feel in the arms with the baseball analogy has really helped. Thank you!
I still have the blocks. I have always had an inside out swing (abt a 10 HC). I think I get too far inside, especially with the driver. The release gets inconsistent. I flair out my left foot which helps me turn thru as I do not want to think "turn" in the thru swing. Can one over-turn on the back swing that causes too much inside-out?
You could. This is just so easy to fix. Literally 5 mins or less. If you like the inside out path don't see this as a bad thing. This is half right. You have the path. You don't have the release. So you do my roll over drill. You hook 10 in a row. Once you can do that you memorize the feeing of releasing it as you switch back to firing your body. So on ball 11 you hit the top and think about the legs and hips to start the downswing. As you near impact you feel the release you just did. If so, you will hit a perfect draw or dead straight. I have fixed hundreds of you in mins. ruclips.net/video/p4vASmOzkPg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/M868QsTlGt4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/yHEv7G9Z5-0/видео.html
I have lost all confidence in my irons and it is because of the shift and now I can try to correct it at the range this weekend. Thanx for the great tip and hopefully we will get it RIGHT
You need to make it simple and you need to be able to instantly diagnose the problem and apply the fix. Remember, spin = wrist, direction = body. Watch your ball and it will tell you what to do. You've got this.
I'm slowly transitioning from a severe slice to now a push right interspersed with long straight drives down the middle. Unfortunately, I can't do enough of the straight ones on demand. I must be doing something right, some of the time though? I can't ever memorize what it was that made this one better than the others so I'm unable to repeat the motion until it becomes a natural occurrence. Thank you, Paul, for this video. Of all the videos of I've watched, no golf pro (or unless I'm watching the wrong videos) has mentioned the lateral tilt pushing my ball right. When I think of it and watch you, this makes sense to me. I'm also only 5 ft 4 and I'm thinking my feet are too wide that when I lean right (hip bumping toward the target) the lateral movement is even more exaggerated. I think when I attend the range next time I'll work on being a little more upright than tilted and perhaps my feet a little wider than my shoulders as opposed to so wide that I feel like I'm going to do the splits! Top video instruction. Great work Paul!
Sorry, just saw I must have overlooked you comment. You need to master hooking it first. Then you switch to body to straighten it out. Follow these steps: Then roll it from the top and get it consistently hooking (this is step 1): ruclips.net/video/8ro_1NYPd8c/видео.html ruclips.net/video/GnQ2FfdQBDo/видео.html Once you can consistently hook it you start to add body to straighten it out (step 2). To do that, you can use this trigger: ruclips.net/video/RdphthCQ9VM/видео.html So simple.
Wish you were local, definitely would book some lessons with you. I ended up here (I always seem to end up back at your videos) because I went from duck hooks with a driver to a push/push slice. After watching your explanation I can confirm I went from turn to too much lateral/tilt, in fact I’ve been setting up with too much tilt. Thank you! Just need to find some middle ground.
Paul, i enjoy your videos and practice your theory a lot and am hitting the ball much better without back strain.thank you. With such soft wrist do you find the club ( irons ) need to be a bit more upright in lie angle? my clubs have always been a little flat it feels like the toe is a little down at impact
Glad you are doing well and improving. I don't find that they have to be upright. I really don't like flat clubs though. I promote a taller set up (not bent over too much). So if yours are flat I would think you are bend over more than I like. Feel taller to get a more rotational swing. If so, flat clubs are probably not going to work.
Paul Wilson, I’m trying so hard to emulate my swing like yours. Tried to learn golf at 26, and now I am 31. I bought BodySwing, but still can’t figure out the downswing. I wish I didn’t live in Wisconsin (you’re in Las Vegas). I would love to get my swing fixed by video with the right price.
Good days are good. Probably trying to hit too hard on the bad days which is locking your wrists. The draw hooks are you not firing the lower quick enough. Hold the club at knee high and do practice swings. This will allow you to feel the legs and hips powering the swing: ruclips.net/video/x1NehGi8tyI/видео.html
hi Paul. great video as always ... I've been hooking my irons left and hitting it on the toe too ...a new problem I didn't have till this year...uggghhhh
Glad you liked it. Thanks. The hook is super easy to fix. Toed shots too. ruclips.net/video/FOB9geBbyFA/видео.html If you are hooking it without trying to hook it you have a grip problem. The toed shots is telling you that you are attacking from the inside but you are coming out of it through impact. This pulls the club back and you hit the toe. Work on this: ruclips.net/video/X_pF7x-OCXU/видео.html Into the future you need to see the good in the shots. Right now you are dwelling on the negatives so you never fix anything. Hook = half right. You have the wrists releasing. Most people would kill for this. Inside out path = great. Most people would kill for this too. So just see it differently into the future and you can literally fix this stuff in minutes.
Paul this has been a great eye opener for me, I have always struggled with squaring the face at impact. I just video’d my face on practise swing to find that even though I am turning I am sliding too much as well something I never noticed! Thanks so much for a great tip. I have fractured my hand currently so I cannot take this to the range to try for another 4 weeks 🙁 Ps. I recent purchased your body swing and the content is brilliant. I have been practising the home drills with the club upside down to go easy on my hand. I was wondering, if I was struggling at any point in the process of learning your swing do you provide video analysis lessons for students that live in other countries? Thanks again
Glad you liked it. Just keep doing practice swings at home until you are 100%. Glad you like The Body Swing. Glad you are doing daily practice swings working on the positions. It's all about building the swing. I don't do swing analysis. I do live video coaching on my app called CoachLink. You can find it on the Play and App store. I am available most days as I am off until October. More info: coachlinkapp.com
That's a nice drop. You are on your way. Keep up the good work. Try to do daily practice swings at home. If so, we can get you to single digits in no time.
A good way to get the feel for the right amount of tilt and turn is to place a cardboard box next to your club head and parallel to the line. Go easy your first few swings because if you come over the top you will crash into the box. Conversely, if you swing too much from the inside, you will push into the box. You will quickly learn how to swing and miss the box.
Hi Paul. Thanks for this and everything else you do. I had been consistently pulling my shots especially wedges and short irons) and found this. I added more shift and indeed that cured my pull. But the experience provoked a question in my mind. From my Body Swing course I learned that the hip motion is both a shift and a turn. I accept that. But in adding shift it seemed to require a sequential motion, namely shift before turning. Yes, the shift and turn are done quickly and almost (but not quite) simultaneously; to accomplish the move I had to shift then turn after the shift was completed. My question is this: Is this sequential move (shift, then turn the hips) a proper way to do it, or am I on a wrong track with this? Thanks for any insights.
Glad to help. Fixing pulls is easy. Just see it differently and you will fix it instantly. Here is one on pulling wedges: ruclips.net/video/BZD0_jPL8ks/видео.html As for the shift and turn I want people to do this automatically. You have 1/4 of a second from the top to impact. If you think shift when are you going to turn? From the top I need you to think of getting to my follow through position. If so, you will do both automatically. You cannot get to my follow through without shifting. See it now? Too many people are thinking about coming down and hitting the ball. In no way do I want you thinking like this. If you threw a ball you would do both perfectly without thinking about it. So throw some balls to get the feel. When you do you will be super close to my follow through if not doing it perfectly without thinking about it. So throw and hit the follow through position in the lower body. Keep doing it and feeling it then apply it to practice swings. Be precise. As you keep doing it in practice swings you will memorize it then you will be able to do it with a ball.
Works for irons but people have had trouble getting drive airborne. If you follow that then don't follow me as the 2 methods are completely different. If you try it and you have trouble then come back. You'll see in a hurry about driver. Those were the comments I read many years ago. Irons have loft so it's doable.
I need more shift because I have been pulling the ball, my grip is neutral and my arms & wrists are nice and loose and I fire my lower first but without the shift
Plus, as I said in my previous comment turn the arms off completely. No arms and hitting means you would have to use your legs and hips as the power source. Fire the lower and the upper tilts back creating the path from the inside.
You are swinging way too hard. The harder you hit the more you will look to see what you hit the more you will contract your forearms narrowing your arc. So hitting hard is the problem. Do you top it when you swing easy? Doubt it. So it's clue telling you that you are swinging too hard. Check this: ruclips.net/video/a8uIUyRF52Y/видео.html ruclips.net/video/pCzCGEbThio/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ibkTQCoxUaA/видео.html Now you need to loosen up. Do this for a week: ruclips.net/video/2QFBw8XGdpI/видео.html
If you got the lateral tilt, it feels like less weight over the front foot, and less compression/power on the shots. Or is that just all in my head? Gonna try this tonight thanks
You should still be into the left as you add lateral. Don't hang back. It's like hitting the accelerator on a car. Fire the lower and the upper goes back.
It's pretty rare if someone is disconnected. Are you sure you are? If not I wouldn't even be thinking of it. Just another thing to add confusion. Let me know.
You are coiling going back then setting the hinge. This means you feel your arms lift the club up into position. I like the right arm untucked and the lead arm slightly above the shoulder plane. Once there you switch to firing the lower body. Your arms are connected to your body so if you move your body first the arms will follow. You are not hitting or helping the shot with the arms. Body Swing Concept: ruclips.net/video/E8y9jEyY35k/видео.html
Well, you need to master half. So you master either the release or firing your body. If you are having to time both it's tricky. Get one then you are only every working on the other one: ruclips.net/video/bLskGy7rulo/видео.html Need to check that grip. I would have the V's pointing at the back shoulder no stronger than that.' ruclips.net/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/видео.html
I have a habit of hitting ball into the ground off tee. And sometime on iron/wood shots. Along with a pull hook. Aggravating as all get out. I don't know how it started.
Well that would be topping it which is you trying to kill it. Pull hook it telling you also that you are using your arms. You need to stop hitting. This is never going to work. So start to make the swing. Start here: Body Swing Concept: ruclips.net/video/E8y9jEyY35k/видео.html Grip: ruclips.net/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/видео.html Hinge Rehinge: ruclips.net/video/6ZeTqcz2pmE/видео.html Alginment: ruclips.net/video/VFZc0Wq282k/видео.html Secure Grip: ruclips.net/video/Z8K3Gctkz7A/видео.html Best Drill: ruclips.net/video/cVhtL-d1B9Y/видео.html Power the swing with the legs and hip not the hands and arms. I have tons of lower body tips now posted. Try this one. It's an easy way to get you hips moving: ruclips.net/video/j1mS5Ku8Q10/видео.html
Well I just want people to get it. There are so many people struggling out there. If I can help out that's great. I will try to answer as many questions as I can for a long as I can.
Let me try to explain it in another way. When I tee the ball up I hit the top or high side of ball with the sweet spot of the driver. On a downward swing. Somehow I turn my 12degree driver into a 8 or 9 degree loft. Even when I hit ball in middle it is a line drive type of ball flight that can roll a very long ways. Is my hands out front of ball when I swing? If so how do I fix? I played today and shot 92 on bad greens.
Lean left and you will swing left. It is that simple. Why would you lean left if you fire your lower body. If you fire your lower your whole upper would lean away from the target creating the path from the inside. Watch: ruclips.net/video/sbE-hzTXgNo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/bLskGy7rulo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/2cPM_FSoHNM/видео.html ruclips.net/video/GF7JQHr2hhw/видео.html
It can because there is timing between the legs and hips and the release. This is just you diving the lower too hard/fast. This is rare. Most use little to no body at all. If this is you then read: TIMING The first thing you need to do is roll the wrists from the top and hit 10 hooks in a row. This speeds up the release. Now you can drive the lower harder to straighten it out. If you blow it right do it again. Do this but early: ruclips.net/video/Xk7t9yHCO-I/видео.html Here are the drills (wrists): ruclips.net/video/M868QsTlGt4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/N-nGM6yN790/видео.html ruclips.net/video/yHEv7G9Z5-0/видео.html Remember to roll it from the top to get it hooking. Forget direction. You only care about the spin. Most popular trigger: ruclips.net/video/RdphthCQ9VM/видео.html
This is because the longer the club the harder you hit which tightens your wrists so you don't release the club. Shorter clubs are easier to release. Sounds like you have a strong grip. I would make this a little more neutral. Then for the longer clubs follow these tips to get them releasing: ruclips.net/video/M868QsTlGt4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/p4vASmOzkPg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/N-nGM6yN790/видео.html ruclips.net/video/yHEv7G9Z5-0/видео.html Once you can do that then go back to firing your body to straighten it out.
It's a fine line with what I give away. I have a membership site where people pay for access so it's not really fair to them if I give everything away. Plus, I do a short game tip and no one watches it (crazy). Here are the short game tips I've done so far: ruclips.net/video/uKs-y1GHySo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/UnhOmEGoTRA/видео.html ruclips.net/video/VERRhU-Jz7g/видео.html ruclips.net/video/zW3ZC3QwQek/видео.html ruclips.net/video/MK9MyN3mdt8/видео.html ruclips.net/video/GNwnl6zEVB4/видео.html ---------------------CHIPPING ---------------------- Chipping is easy. It's a stroke like putting. Ball back instep. Hands forward. 3-4 knuckle grip. Weight forward. Stroke it like a putt.
Is not that I'm pushing or pulling the ball, I'm hitting pretty straight and almost as far as I did before. My problem is that I'm not hitting the center of the club. I'm going to work on my ball position and see if it will help. I like not Swing with my hands and arms.
This guy is dead on correct. I push the ball nearly every shot and I got a lesson and the instructor said exactly that, too much lateral. I also hurt my back quite badly doing this. I find it so hard to turn!
Can't make it any easier. I am the guy who keeps it simple. If you can't understand me then we have a serious problem. Pull pull hooks = hitting with arms. So stop hitting. Turn your arms off and start your body first in the downswing. To reduce the hook neutralize your grip if you have to. Push push fade you are firing the lower body way to hard or you are sliding. So turn more or quit firing your lower so hard. See easier than you thought. Now go do it.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the contribution. I truly appreciate it. Glad to help. Pretty much every golfer pushes and pulls. This is just a simple way to fix it.
Aha! Brilliant video and explanation, Paul. Been missing your videos. Come back soon.
Glad you liked it. Thanks. Will be back at some point. It's been howling wind here every day.
Paul I want to thank you for this awesome lesson. My pull is now under control. Just came from the range and hit best iron shots in a long time
That shift at the top is an amazing tip
Thanks again
Very good. So easy to fix. People are looking in the wrong area. Normally they would try to hold the face more open. It's not a face problem. It's a body problem. Keep at it.
👏👍 I was turning and shifting good today. I just started following you a couple of weeks ago. And I hope I don't get too greedy.
Thank you sir.
Very good. That with loose wrists and you've got it.
As someone who pulls it when under pressure I can’t wait to try this today. Thanks Paul!
The pressure gets you hitting. So yes, now you have a thought to replace the thought of hitting. Give it a try and let me know.
Paul you are the best golf coach on RUclips !
Thanks for the support.
Thank you so much! Have been pushing the ball with the driver for last few weeks. Took a video of my swing and I have a crazy amount of lateral movement just like you said.
Glad you see it. Easy to fix. Hit the top and think TURN. Then they will be dead straight.
Sincerely hope I can rember this on the golf course as I am guilty of a push shot to my right.appreciate you sharing your knowledge
Yes, definitely remember this. Curing pushes is easy. Stay focused and let's get you hitting it straight.
I already kind of knew all this, but I really needed someone to explain it to me and show me. This is a great video. This summer is going to be a good one.
Thanks. Glad you found it. Now you have clarification. Stay focused and watch your ball. It will tell you everything you need to do.

Fantastic! Maybe the best explanation of how to diagnose and correct the most common swing problems.
This is a good one for sure. Need to fix your own swing.
Thanks. In more recent years, I've started pushing all my shots to the right. Especially with the longer clubs.
Easy to fix. Just think turn. If you want a draw then you need to master the release. You hit the top and roll it until each shot has hook spin. Once you consistently hook a few then you go back to firing your lower body as you have been. Then it will start right and draw back.

Very good. You are starting to see it. Just keep watching your ball to tell you how much tilt/lateral you need.
Great help. For 30 years I blamed my release on the blocks. I hit everything right to left as a rule....except those pesky blocks :)
Blocks are simple to fix. Literally 2 mins. You've got this. TURN

Glad you liked it. Thanks.

Glad you liked it. More to come shortly.

Any time!

Good Day: Driving it 250.

Good days are good. Probably trying to hit too hard on the bad days which is locking your wrists. The draw hooks are you not firing the lower quick enough. Hold the club at knee high and do practice swings. This will allow you to feel the legs and hips powering the swing:

Into the future you need to see the good in the shots. Right now you are dwelling on the negatives so you never fix anything. Hook = half right. You have the wrists releasing. Most people would kill for this. Inside out path = great. Most people would kill for this too.

I was wondering, if I was struggling at any point in the process of learning your swing do you provide video analysis lessons for students that live in other countries?
Thanks again
Glad you liked it. Just keep doing practice swings at home until you are 100%. Glad you like The Body Swing. Glad you are doing daily practice swings working on the positions. It's all about building the swing. I don't do swing analysis. I do live video coaching on my app called CoachLink. You can find it on the Play and App store. I am available most days as I am off until October. More info: coachlinkapp.com
Great !!!
Glad you liked it. Thanks.
How is it possible that one man can be both so handsome and so good at golf?
Should have seen me 30lbs lighter.
Tq Paul.. Follow your RUclips now I carry best h/cap 16 form h/cap 24. Secret tee off very well. I see 6 in from tee. Superb. Tq bro..
That's a nice drop. You are on your way. Keep up the good work. Try to do daily practice swings at home. If so, we can get you to single digits in no time.
A good way to get the feel for the right amount of tilt and turn is to place a cardboard box next to your club head and parallel to the line. Go easy your first few swings because if you come over the top you will crash into the box. Conversely, if you swing too much from the inside, you will push into the box. You will quickly learn how to swing and miss the box.
Sure, you can do that. Kind of gives you proof. But you don't want to not hit the box by manipulating your arms.
Hi Paul. Thanks for this and everything else you do. I had been consistently pulling my shots especially wedges and short irons) and found this. I added more shift and indeed that cured my pull. But the experience provoked a question in my mind.
From my Body Swing course I learned that the hip motion is both a shift and a turn. I accept that. But in adding shift it seemed to require a sequential motion, namely shift before turning. Yes, the shift and turn are done quickly and almost (but not quite) simultaneously; to accomplish the move I had to shift then turn after the shift was completed.
My question is this: Is this sequential move (shift, then turn the hips) a proper way to do it, or am I on a wrong track with this? Thanks for any insights.
Glad to help. Fixing pulls is easy. Just see it differently and you will fix it instantly. Here is one on pulling wedges: ruclips.net/video/BZD0_jPL8ks/видео.html
As for the shift and turn I want people to do this automatically. You have 1/4 of a second from the top to impact. If you think shift when are you going to turn? From the top I need you to think of getting to my follow through position. If so, you will do both automatically. You cannot get to my follow through without shifting. See it now? Too many people are thinking about coming down and hitting the ball. In no way do I want you thinking like this. If you threw a ball you would do both perfectly without thinking about it. So throw some balls to get the feel. When you do you will be super close to my follow through if not doing it perfectly without thinking about it. So throw and hit the follow through position in the lower body. Keep doing it and feeling it then apply it to practice swings. Be precise. As you keep doing it in practice swings you will memorize it then you will be able to do it with a ball.
Paul what do you think about the tilt and stack golf swing tried it seems like my ball contact is amazing.
Works for irons but people have had trouble getting drive airborne. If you follow that then don't follow me as the 2 methods are completely different. If you try it and you have trouble then come back. You'll see in a hurry about driver. Those were the comments I read many years ago. Irons have loft so it's doable.
@@paulwilsongolf good point I noticed that with the driver with topping it and irons are pure.
I need more shift because I have been pulling the ball, my grip is neutral and my arms & wrists are nice and loose and I fire my lower first but without the shift
Plus, as I said in my previous comment turn the arms off completely. No arms and hitting means you would have to use your legs and hips as the power source. Fire the lower and the upper tilts back creating the path from the inside.
@@paulwilsongolf I don't use my arms, I use my legs and hips, been doing it that way for a long time now
Paul I am having trouble topping my driver trying to get weight on the front foot. Can I trouble you for advice
You are swinging way too hard. The harder you hit the more you will look to see what you hit the more you will contract your forearms narrowing your arc. So hitting hard is the problem. Do you top it when you swing easy? Doubt it. So it's clue telling you that you are swinging too hard.

Now you need to loosen up. Do this for a week:

If you got the lateral tilt, it feels like less weight over the front foot, and less compression/power on the shots. Or is that just all in my head? Gonna try this tonight thanks
You should still be into the left as you add lateral. Don't hang back. It's like hitting the accelerator on a car. Fire the lower and the upper goes back.
What is the best way to connect your arms into the release of the body swing?
It's pretty rare if someone is disconnected. Are you sure you are? If not I wouldn't even be thinking of it. Just another thing to add confusion. Let me know.
@@paulwilsongolf so does that mean to not use any arms in my swing
You are coiling going back then setting the hinge. This means you feel your arms lift the club up into position. I like the right arm untucked and the lead arm slightly above the shoulder plane. Once there you switch to firing the lower body. Your arms are connected to your body so if you move your body first the arms will follow. You are not hitting or helping the shot with the arms. Body Swing Concept: ruclips.net/video/E8y9jEyY35k/видео.html
My problem is still a little of to much turn push fades. Then release to soon duck hooks. The later being the worse for my course
Well, you need to master half. So you master either the release or firing your body. If you are having to time both it's tricky. Get one then you are only every working on the other one:

Need to check that grip. I would have the V's pointing at the back shoulder no stronger than that.'
ruclips.net/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/видео.html
I have a habit of hitting ball into the ground off tee. And sometime on iron/wood shots.
Along with a pull hook. Aggravating as all get out. I don't know how it started.
Well that would be topping it which is you trying to kill it. Pull hook it telling you also that you are using your arms. You need to stop hitting. This is never going to work. So start to make the swing. Start here:

Power the swing with the legs and hip not the hands and arms. I have tons of lower body tips now posted. Try this one. It's an easy way to get you hips moving: ruclips.net/video/j1mS5Ku8Q10/видео.html
Paul- what you gave to that person. It says a lot for your character and that of your staff. Nice job. Great tip as always. Leon 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Well I just want people to get it. There are so many people struggling out there. If I can help out that's great. I will try to answer as many questions as I can for a long as I can.
Let me try to explain it in another way. When I tee the ball up I hit the top or high side of ball with the sweet spot of the driver. On a downward swing. Somehow I turn my 12degree driver into a 8 or 9 degree loft. Even when I hit ball in middle it is a line drive type of ball flight that can roll a very long ways. Is my hands out front of ball when I swing? If so how do I fix? I played today and shot 92 on bad greens.
This will fix it:
ruclips.net/video/eSxP7pcuS68/видео.html
You are moving ahead of it in the downswing.
And if it’s long and straight left it’s over the top a bit with club face square to the path? And that fix is what again?
Lean left and you will swing left. It is that simple. Why would you lean left if you fire your lower body. If you fire your lower your whole upper would lean away from the target creating the path from the inside. Watch:

ruclips.net/video/GF7JQHr2hhw/видео.html
I thought pushing occurred if you turn too quickly and don’t rotate hands fast enough. Can you add some light to this.
It can because there is timing between the legs and hips and the release. This is just you diving the lower too hard/fast. This is rare. Most use little to no body at all. If this is you then read:
TIMING
The first thing you need to do is roll the wrists from the top and hit 10 hooks in a row. This speeds up the release. Now you can drive the lower harder to straighten it out. If you blow it right do it again. Do this but early: ruclips.net/video/Xk7t9yHCO-I/видео.html
Here are the drills (wrists):

Remember to roll it from the top to get it hooking. Forget direction. You only care about the spin.

@@paulwilsongolf love everything you do
Now I’m more confused I tend to push my driver and draw/hook my irons.
Will take more notice of tilt and turn.
This is because the longer the club the harder you hit which tightens your wrists so you don't release the club. Shorter clubs are easier to release. Sounds like you have a strong grip. I would make this a little more neutral. Then for the longer clubs follow these tips to get them releasing:

Once you can do that then go back to firing your body to straighten it out.
Maybe you have already, but I don't recall you ever done a vid on chipping/short game...
It's a fine line with what I give away. I have a membership site where people pay for access so it's not really fair to them if I give everything away. Plus, I do a short game tip and no one watches it (crazy).
Here are the short game tips I've done so far:

---------------------CHIPPING ----------------------
Chipping is easy. It's a stroke like putting. Ball back instep. Hands forward. 3-4 knuckle grip. Weight forward. Stroke it like a putt.
Short game is not near that difficult to learn then a solid fullswing in my opinion. You need more lessons in fullswing, great Paul !
Is not that I'm pushing or pulling the ball, I'm hitting pretty straight and almost as far as I did before.
My problem is that I'm not hitting the center of the club.
I'm going to work on my ball position and see if it will help.
I like not Swing with my hands and arms.
You need to to watch this: ruclips.net/video/w0Oq07OH-_0/видео.html
👏👏👍
My tilt comes from making sure my head is behind the ball. Hate those balloon shots
W driver
Yes, you need your head behind the ball for sure with driver.
👍
Glad you liked it. Thanks.
Ok I need lateral shift
Don't go crazy with it. Add a little and watch your ball. You don't want to overdo it.
This guy is dead on correct. I push the ball nearly every shot and I got a lesson and the instructor said exactly that, too much lateral. I also hurt my back quite badly doing this. I find it so hard to turn!
Very good. You need to work on this for sure. In no way should you be in pain as you swing.
too confusinG!!
Can't make it any easier. I am the guy who keeps it simple. If you can't understand me then we have a serious problem. Pull pull hooks = hitting with arms. So stop hitting. Turn your arms off and start your body first in the downswing. To reduce the hook neutralize your grip if you have to. Push push fade you are firing the lower body way to hard or you are sliding. So turn more or quit firing your lower so hard. See easier than you thought. Now go do it.
