Hi Lee. Only just found your channel. Such a shame as I was in Austria for a few weeks recently and only discovered you once back in blighty otherwise I would of looked to have booked up with you. I am having real results with your simple, consistent and quality messaging. My ball striking is really coming on with the feet together drill however I am still finding, even doing this drill, that I am thinning the ball quite a bit. Any thoughts on what I could possibly be doing wrong to thin a good proportion of my shots 'feet together'. A new subscriber to your channel sir....
@@chrisn9511 Hi Chris buddy, that’s a shame would have been great to meet you and the weather is great at the moment. If you are thinning shots with feet together then normally it can only be one of three things. The obvious one is that you are standing up and out of your posture slightly in the downswing and through impact so just keep a check on that. The next one is that your swing direction is either coming too far from the outside and blocking your rotation on the way down and the ball is heading off to the left or the opposite and you have too much lateral movement due to attacking the ball too much from the inside and more often than not hitting straight pushes to the right. The last one that most golfers overlook is tension and grip pressure. Tension at any time in the swing shortens the muscles and raises the club head only slightly but more than enough to hit thinned shots! Grip pressure from 1 - 10, a 4 is a good number but maintain this throughout and don’t be tempted to grab or control things at any point in the swing. Let me know how you go and next time you’re in town then don’t hesitate to give me a shout 🔥⛳️ Thanks for the Sub it’s great to have you on board my mate 😊👍Cheers, Lee
@ Thank you Lee. Sun is up in Hampshire today. Off to the range to try those things out.I have linked your channel to my golfing social networks and will drum up some more support for your wonderful channel. Will be checking in regularly. Thanks for the time and effort you take out of your busy life to improve all of us. Much appreciated
@ Hi Chris buddy, how did your practice session go? Did you have less thinned shots? Cheers for sharing me that’s great and much appreciated 😊👍 If you need anything from my side then just let me know 👍 Cheers my friend, Lee
@@LeeKopanskiGolfswingzone Thanks for checking in Lee. WHAT A DIFFERENCE... You were right... A friend filmed me and I was standing up slightly on the downswing which I would never of known. Half a bucket of balls later and with a much lighter grip I was getting such lovely compression and a much higher ball flight. This will make you smile... I played a fun 9 hole xmas round with 3 friends today and as a fun challenge I made everyone play every shot with their feet together for the whole round.. playing your video to them before we went out by way of context. We are all similar handicaps (16-18) and every single one of shot in the low 40s. I scored 42.. which is much better average score than my 'normal' game. I feel so enthused as I have been struggling for so long.. with only my short game saving my scores. Thank you. I have been so down with my game as of late and messing around trying so many things. This simple method already has me striking balls which I have rarely done before and even with my feet together my distances were up to 20 yards longer. A long way to go but i feel excited for golf again. Thank you
Oh and I have just been on your website and noticed you have written a book... I have been a good boy this year and I have asked someone for a copy from Santa... Enjoy the royalty fee on me 😀
Some coaches suggest just keeping your weight on the front foot as amateurs find it difficult to get back to the front foot once on the back foot, especially with the driver. What do you think?
@@EricMski Hi Eric, great question and believe me I’ve tried them all! If you leave your weight onto your left leg you’ll start to reverse pivot over your left side causing all kinds of problems! If you throw a ball, play tennis, throw a punch or do any movement that requires body weight and force then there will always be a transference of weight from one side to the other! If a golfer can’t get back onto his left side through impact then telling him to leave is body weight on his lead foot, left foot is a disaster waiting to happen! Allow your body weight to freely flow from foot to foot and how your hand and arm swing guides the body into the correct position! Don’t fight it let it flow! It will need practice to time the movements but you’ll be a much better golfer for it, and you’ll remain injury free! cheers buddy, Lee 😊👍⛳️
