@@baldvinharaldsson6163 exactly 👍 the correct hand and arm motion naturally pulls the body into position and the body is just there to support this motion! The faster the motion the more active the body becomes as it reacts to it! Cheers for your great feedback 😊👍
I’m finally seeing what you mean by complex body mechanics. It explains the swing you demonstrate in your videos. We are so accustomed to seeing these highly trained athletes with advanced swings and mimicing them. You’re right. Thank you!!
Yes it’s taken these highly skilled athletes years of dedication often from being children that’s why it all looks so effortless! The difference between the elite level and average golfer is that there is absolutely nothing the same! It’s a different game! Cheers for your great comment 😊👍
@@RickGrossmanAttorney Shame you would spoil yourself with a silly comment like that! If you take the body out and hit shots with feet together, just by using your hands and arms and DUCK HOOK it then there’s something wrong! This might be new to you but will massively improve your golf! Path is the direction that you swing in relation to the target and face control comes ultimately from your hands and the body is just there to support the hand and arm motion. The faster this motion the more active the body becomes which is why so many golfers get confused and assume things like the hips start the downswing! I suppose Rick that you throw a ball or play tennis controlling the movement with your shoulders right??? Sounds like you are losing massive amounts of club head speed, power and control! The best drill a golfer can do is to hit shots with feet together to gain control over the speed generators, the hands, arms and wrists!
@@RickGrossmanAttorney all good players want and talk about getting their hands and arms out in front of them in the downswing and follow through which is correct! A duck hook as you referred to is when the body fires hard in the downswing, hips slide aggressively across, the hands and arms get stuck and the hands flip over through impact! Tiger Woods famously fought this off with his coach Butch Harmon which is well documented! Tiger always talked about how he had the feeling that is hands beat the body to the ball at impact! The hands and arms should freely move and swing out in front of the body just like throwing a ball or playing tennis and not a cross line shot as you are getting confused with. You are obviously quite new to the game but stick at it I’ve got more videos on the way to help you 👍
Hands come through first, especially with irons, I remember. As an amateur, I totally agree and that’s why I bought your book. Hopefully it will be there when I return from Africa. I’m athletic enough to score pretty good, but I was trying to use my body for too much and went from a bad slice to an occasional duck hook, which was always out of bounds.
Yes definitely buddy, the hand and arm swing pulls the body into the correct position! Up to 90% of power and club head speed comes from the hands, arms, wrists and upper body! The body is just there to support the hand and arm motion and reacts to it! Throw too much body in and things can get quite erratic 🥴 Have a great time in Africa, hopefully you’ll get some golf ⛳️ in! Let me know when you get your book 😊
Another great and informative video Lee. Well done to your children, doing excellent in their respective competitions. I should report you to NSPCC for making Ruby wear an Everton hat 🤣
Thanks Frank my friend 😊 Yes the kids are doing great 👍 Everton made it look easy once once again 🥴 not sure I could convince them to wear a 1st division teams cap 🧢 🤣
Hi Lee, I purchased your book and love your style of teaching. Try to watch all your videos. I have believed that you have been promoting an active “turn over” of the wrists through impact, but this video seems to say that the hands are actually “flapping back and flipping through”….not the “rotating” of the hands through impact. I guess either I’m reading things wrong …or am just totally confused😖😖. Please help me understand. Thanks!
Hi Dave buddy, excellent question! The ball is the best teacher and the golf swing is a rotation directed at a target. Therefore the rotation of the hands and arms before, through and after impact “the release” should be a natural movement in conjunction with the body movements. If the ball is spinning to the right then you will have to actively rotate the hands in the downswing and through impact to square the face up to the swing path and body movements! And vice versa with a ball flight that overly spins left! So the answer to your question is that you are correct! The hands and arms rotate in unison with the swing path - so they do rotate and turn over through impact! If you watch ruclips.net/video/f3zLJLtutxE/видео.html Signature Swing I explain this with a tee in the end of the handle and how it relates to the ball during the swing. We are all different and as long as everything “matches up” and fits your build and style of play then we are winning ;-) Cheers, Lee 😊👍⛳️
@@jld6608 The body supports the hand and arm motion, from throwing a ball, tennis or whatever! The faster and more powerful the hand and arm motion the more the body reacts to it and moves accordingly to support it! That’s why the hips are open through impact, as the weight transfers from right to left due to the forces needed to control and support the hand and arm motion! The hips don’t move in isolation, they move as part of the reaction. Watch my video here it explains this in more detail! ruclips.net/video/xHJS_RJmL54/видео.htmlsi=pB7-L27cowFD9fRC
Hi Dave, if the rotation is after the ball it’s too late to have any impact on the ball flight! The hands, arms and body should turn together in unison and “the release” the turn happens way before impact! Some golfers do it with their grip, wrist angles in the backswing or with an active release! The ball is the best teacher and every golf swing is different but for a consistent swing the clubface has to match up with the swing direction and body movements! Even a golfer that arches his left wrist closing the clubface in the backswing still has an element of rotation (release) before, during and after impact! Cheers my friend, Lee
I agree with your thesis. One thing i'd say is calm down on your crazy arm movements at the camera. It does the opposite of what you are trying to do. It's distracting and silly and makes me want to turn off the video.
@@Rigtpc I’m so sorry but it’s the camera hitting me! And sorry it’s annoying for you but some like it some don’t! There is loads of other content out there if it’s not your cup of tea but I’m quite good at my job and wouldn’t want you to miss out! Cheers buddy, Lee
Best advise!! Ive always started with body and always way to fast with my lower body!! Now im stable with lower body and only use my hands!!

Love it! Now, for the first time in 40 years I am understanding the sequence of the golf swing! The body follows the hands. Thank you.
Yes most golfers tend to over work their body causing all kinds of problems! Thanks for your nice comment 😊🔥⛳️ Cheers my friend, Lee

get your hands ahead of your body and enjoy the duck hook that follows

Silly not really. Yes at slow speed you can get away with it but swing hard and your hands Ms arms will race ahead and look out left.

ok, but, if the body follow the hands, how you get the hips open at impact, it have to come first than the hands no?
