Best advice ever! I am 82 and am hitting the ball more solid than ever. Thank you . Ed
This is probably one of your best videos I've seen. I previously had pretty much this same issue with my swing and it was causing me to hit a lot of heavy shots brushing behind the ball.
I was basically "fake" weight transferring like you showed, meaning hip moving a bit but then pausing on my back foot and not actually shifting my weight forwards much. Once I fixed that and actually started committing and doing real weight transfer forwards (well before impact), the large percentage of fat shots stopped, and I started getting the low point after the ball consistently.
No one is having a better day than you Matt............especially anyone in the UK.
I've really been struggling lately with hitting the ball fat. It has ruined my scores. The fat shots started after a lesson where the coach was prodding me to start the downswing by sliding my hips forward. I was getting stuck with too much weight on my trail side. Today I hit the range and took your advice about starting the downswing with my shoulder turn. 90% of the shots were pure. Thanks for the tip!!
Congrats! Your best video ever. I am working on this exact thing and coming to your same conclusion. Most of us have an inadequate forward weight shift. Most important point is at 9:31 in this vid. Man you made this vid just in time for me. The move is subtle but oh so important. It comes down to working hard to get that subtle linear shift of your weight towards the target in a synced up manner with the shoulders and arms. I am definitely a victim of the "trying to do the right thing, stay behind the ball" school. So we meant well but in my opinion the real magic is in the move you are describing. I'm hitting my irons more crisply and with less effort then ever before. Well done and thanks for posting.
Definitely one of my number one problems. Early on when I picked up the game and with various instruction, I wasn't shifting my weight, head and upper body swaying. Told I need to fire my hips forward. Well, I was trying to fire my hips forward and shifting my weight to my left foot, but through that instruction I was firing my hips towards the target. End result, I'm coming over the target line and hitting the ball fat or thinning my shots. Definitely will put this one to practice to improve my ball striking.
Matt, I've been a subscriber of yours for years. You've always simplified things really well. This is one of your best videos. It works to cure a myriad of problems. Great work, brother.
That’s awesome feedback man! Could do with some of that on my videos! Legend
If I come to Georgia will you give me a lesson? I’m about 3 hours away in NC.
definitely what I need to work on, had a lesson and could see with the boditrak and cameras i was leaning on my back foot. hitting my 35 degree 7 iron 170 yards so can't wait to see if I can push 180 with more consistent forward weight transfer.
Another great drill coach I've kinda of been doing it now indoors this off season for me here in Detroit ☺️ but I do have indoor driving range and the simulators so yes sir on that 1 thanks coach
Awesome video! And Great drill!
Best drill ever. I hit behind the ball and lose so much distance when I hang back. Then hit a perfect shot and it flies the green. This will make me consistent. Big thumbs up
Awesome
G'day Matt, great to see you giving us a new swing thought. Moving through the ball properly is something I am currently working on so the timing of your video is perfect. ⛳🇦🇺
Love the advice. As a beginner Mark I struggle with the idea of hitting down on the ball. Your other video helped me to NOT hit down on the ball. The one that said never do this. And I struggle with weight transfer too. But this video seems to tell me to lower my shoulder which confuses me regarding not hitting down on ball. Any verbiage you can provide to differentiate is much appreciated.
I watched how low you kept your chin on the backswing. I have been keeping it a little higher, to let my left shoulder go under it. Hogan talked about the worn mark on his shirts from where the chin would make contact. My inconsistency with hitting good shots I believe was due to the left shoulder going up instead of around. I’m hoping for greater consistency. There’s more pressure being consistently good. Thanks
Great tips! Will be practicing this in the net tomorrow!
Awesome way to think about it. I have this terrible habit where I hit like 10-20 balls perfect, then I think the next 2 and then go back to hitting pure. Annoying as heck, but if I keep the weight transfer in mind and employ this, I think I'll be golden and playing scratch golf alongside you in no time :) If I were you, I'd go pro.. you have it in you.
I love the drill. Works especially well for me because I’m left handed but play golf righty. Really gets my dominant side more involved
Cool video man! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Matt, good video. However, kind of miss the chickens from the California set.
Love the drill, easy to understand, easy to practice, roll on golf restarting again.
Greed Amman!
Thanks again man, health and happiness 😊
You should hold that club across your chest with the iron pointing up with a slightly closed face, because when you lean forward and rotate as if swinging, if done properly, that club face should be in perfect position at impact. 👍🏼 it’s a great visual feedback for feeling the movement and seeing the club position on impact.
Thanks Matt.
That’s the first time I heard “ Drive with the upper body “ as opposed to “Drive with the hips”. I think it makes perfect sense I’ll try it next time I go out!
Matt what about the turn of the hips generated by the knees. Power in the golf swing is generated by the lower body. Right knee initiating the lateral shift and the left knee pushing the left hip back and around.
This is the best drill I have ever tried. This drill alone intantly fixed a weight shift problem I have struggled with for the past 54 years. Looking forward to a new lease on my golf life this season. Thank you so much I really appreciate the content you share on your RUclips channel.
Would love to try this out, unfortunately lock down and heavy snow in Uk 🤦🏼♂️ maybe some putting drills video ? Be good for us locked down folk 👍🏻🏌🏻♂️⛳️
Great Drill. Can't wait until spring to 🥶 in the Northeast 🏌🏿 may have to ✈️ to GA to get some good weather ☀️ ⛳ In😁. What up with Golfholics, haven't 👀 y'all in a video for a minute. Also will you be returning to Saving Par series. 👍🏿
Is this the same for wedges, long irons & drives? The weight transfer for all swings?
Btw, thank you for all your videos your knowledge & enthusiasm has got me back in love with the game again and basically Ive been practicing on average an hour a day.
Good job!!
Thanks for this tip. My main problem, especially with my 7 and 8 irons, has been keeping too much weight on my back foot as well as moving my front foot when swinging forward. Any other suggestions on how to better hit my 7 and 8 irons which I have been struggling with. Hitting all my other clubs well.
As a leftie, I try lowering my right shoulder. It seems to work for me. Matt can you give some tips on how to set up Tee's. I feel that sometimes this is causing me to top the ball. Stay safe!
Do you have the same thought when you start down with your driver? If not, could you do a similar video on that. Thanks in advance. Keep those videos coming.
Same thought with driver Yes
My biggest problem since my back surgeries, is the slide. Since I can't really rotate anymore I slide to my right instead of rotating to the right. But I'm working on a fix and as soon as it warms up I'll be back on the range
I’ve had back surgery also. My problem is I can turn back but when I try to turn back to the target I have a hard time turning. I wind up sliding to the left instead of turning and I wind up blocking shots out to the right specially on the shots from 100 yards and in. It is also hard to stay down when turning back to the target on my follow thru.
@@retiredsparky526 my issue is simular. I probably have about 30 % hip rotation left and my mind makes the adjustment by shifting my weight dramatically left and right. Some days I hit the ball like I use to but it's so inconsistent. And the worst part the longer the club the more inconsistent. Driver is awful
@@michealhudson4515 I’m just the opposite. I tend to swing a with a little faster tempo with my drive, fairway and utility woods and hit them most of the time pretty decent. It’s when I’m hitting my shorter irons and trying to have a slower more deliberate tempo I wind up blocking most of them to the right. It’s depressing because I used to shoot in the low seventies low eighties consistently. Now I can’t get out of the nineties and a lot of the times I’m in the high nineties. I’m hitting as many as 10 to 12 blocked shots a round.
@@retiredsparky526 hmm. Sadly I see the difference but the struggle is the same. Before my surgeries I was 8 handi with the occasional great score if my putter got hot. But I hadn't hit a golf ball 2005 and my son actually joined golf team and he talked me into trying to swing again. I'm wondering if it was worth it because I'm trying every thing to find consistency in my new swing
That falling backwards sorta swing is me! Can’t fix that overbalance feeling. My swing thought tomorrow is “tip to tip” (looking over each shoulder) rotating my shoulders properly. If it doesn’t work I swear I’m taking up lawn bowls.
Agreed
Isn't dangourous to sway in moving foward this way Matt??
Finally, i tried it, and it was a Haaaaa moment for me! I don't seem to sway, and i hit a crisp, ball first and turf after! Since i was kind of turn in a Barrel movement, i probably kept my weight a little too much on my right side. Your advice was awsome for my golf swing! Thank's a million Matt! Denis..from Montréal Québec Canada.
How do you keep your head behind the ball
So Matt, now that your settled in GA and your golf studio is dialed in, can you let us know what that glorious room cost you?
I like this drill but I'm trying to relate it to Hogans hip rotation and I'm not seeing it...am I missing something?
Good Morning
Good morning
Drill starts at 7:13
I think I understand what you are trying to say by having your shoulders going down and through, but for many golfers, this drill of trying to lead with their shoulders will often lead to over the top/steep swings. The focus should maybe be more in regards to driving your weight forward by leading with the hips.
Over the top is usually caused by rotating the hands open on the backswing. The cool thing about doing this is that you can try to come from as far inside as possible and you'll still be fine.
We're did that golf ball come from at 8:54 lmao 🤯🤯
Um, I know it's a drill, but wouldn't this encourage an over the top swing? I'm struggling with weight transfer and fat shots, but I also slice, particularly with the driver.
I understand tips and advice are not for everyone but my right shoulder already gets too forward too early so this thought exaggerates what is already a swing flaw for me.
3:00 i don't think loading into the ball of the trail foot is a good position for a lot of people. shouldn't it be a linear trace from more mid-to-mid with a short iron?
separately, what's up with your trackman numbers at 9:42? is your 8i actually a 6i or is the elevation jacked up? 'cause those numbers don't add up 😂😂😂
I learnt that bad version from Paul Wilson golf 🤣
Fucking genius 👍🏻
head is getting to far in front
Same as me pal
Noooooo
Hello Sir, not trying to be disrespectful, but the couple of times that I have watched your videos, It takes you too long to make the point. You are too long winded!
