So, THAT’S why I hit so many pushes! It’s been a chronic mystery for way too long. It might seem like a no-brainer to figure it out on my own but I haven’t been able to. I usually manage to make decent contact and mostly hit the ball fairly straight, but when I miss it’s usually straight right. Really annoying! Your explanation was great and should help immensely. Thank you for this video. Excellent explanation as always!
I'm so happy to hear the video provided you with a clear explanation of your push shot. That was exactly my hope when I thought about sharing and communicating this information to the masses. I appreciate you watching and supporting the channel!
@ Shot a lukewarm 86 today. I can only think of one push shot throughout the round but most everything today went at my target. A clear improvement thanks to your video. Short game still needs work, but thank you again!
Great video, sir! Excellent explanation of swing plane and how this affects contact. My father has been suffering from the shank and I think it could be from trying to swing too much in to out. Do you have any videos on how to get rid of the shank?
Some day when we understand the origin of life and can reconcile Relativity and Quantum Mechanics - and also understand the origin of the universe - how thoughts are represented in the brain - Still there will be people explaining the Golf Swing to us ! Wow 😮! ( just a wee joke not a criticism ! 😂)
would standing too far from the ball also exaggerate this issue, by making the angles more severe on a shallower swing plane? definitely a problem I have had in the past. Thanks for the video
I would say it *could* do. But it could equally cause the opposite issue of encouraging an excessively OUT-to-IN downswing as a golfer swings over the top to try and "reach" the ball that way. So certainly no hard and fast rules here.
Totally understand about placing the bottom of the arc ahead of the ball causes us to catch the ball in and in to out direction with out intentionally swing that way. But I guess this is the first time I have actually considered the SWING PATH and CLUB DIRECTION ARE two different things. I think this would be a good sub title for this video. This is might the bottom line on why golfers get this wrong .
Great question. It would depend slightly on the type of shot shape you prefer to hit. However, for a standard straight to slight push draw pattern, I'd look for SD to be 0 to -2, so that the downward angle of attack produces the positive path number of 2 to 3 degrees.
That’s what I thought. I have a lot of work to do there… I’m working on it! I tend to hit big draws and am on average 6deg with club path Thank you for your answer I appreciate it!
So you tilt the pool noodle more in to out and thereby also place the low point behind the ball. That does not make sense. You could have kept the low point at the same place, right?
If you keep the low point in the same place then it would be considered a straight shot. But he’s saying that people don’t actually do that because they get off plane by trying to physically change the direction.
Try it for yourself. Make a swing that is excessively to the right and tell me where the club hits the ground. The way your suggesting the noodle “could” still have the bottom in the same place is not really how it works.
Well, maybe... the hands on a tilted angle/plane still move "in". They don't move straight back/straight through. This lesson is describing that there is an INWARD boundary to HANDS IN, just as much as there is an OUTWARD boundary. "HANDS IN" doesn't mean you can move the hands as far inwards as you want to. That's what I hope you can understand from this video/lessson.

@@user2023workingonmygame amazing! Thanks for sharing! 👌🏻
Great video Rob⛳️
Thank you, sir! That means a lot coming from you! 🙏🏻
Brilliant video and explanation. Top draw(er)
@@andrewhall7711 I see what you did there! 👌🏻

Thank you for watching! I don't have a specific video on the S#anKs... sorry. 🙏🏻

So , you really don't know the origin of life??

So swing path refers to direction of the swing plane of the arc and club path refers to direction of the club at impact? Yes?
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
What would be a good range for swing path and swing dir?
Great question. It would depend slightly on the type of shot shape you prefer to hit. However, for a standard straight to slight push draw pattern, I'd look for SD to be 0 to -2, so that the downward angle of attack produces the positive path number of 2 to 3 degrees.
That’s what I thought. I have a lot of work to do there… I’m working on it! I tend to hit big draws and am on average 6deg with club path
Thank you for your answer
I appreciate it!
The problem with Golf is that there is what you are doing and there is what you think you are doing.
So you tilt the pool noodle more in to out and thereby also place the low point behind the ball. That does not make sense. You could have kept the low point at the same place, right?
If you keep the low point in the same place then it would be considered a straight shot. But he’s saying that people don’t actually do that because they get off plane by trying to physically change the direction.

The way your suggesting the noodle “could” still have the bottom in the same place is not really how it works.
Fixed with a non stack ‘n tilt lateral shift and utilising the club shaft axis to close the face.
It does make sense, since the center of the swing is still at the left shoulder.
@@janmiderback bingo! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Today’s lesson seems to contradict “hands in”. Am I misunderstanding the message?
Well, maybe... the hands on a tilted angle/plane still move "in". They don't move straight back/straight through. This lesson is describing that there is an INWARD boundary to HANDS IN, just as much as there is an OUTWARD boundary. "HANDS IN" doesn't mean you can move the hands as far inwards as you want to.
