Am I missing the spike mat link? And I am so jelly I would love to do what you have done over the years. I do have one more question. From all the "teachers" you have seen and been tutored by, who was the most impactful for your game?
Brendan probably just moved on to the next teacher. And tried new stuff, never pleased. Kinda the pattern of the channel. For me Shawn he has made the most impact in my golf swing, I would do anything for him to come to texas. Milo to me is just a baseball player who says everything he feels but doesn’t know how to teach it, and then everything else Brendan does is just squaring face and try to not flip. Which well has gotten him no where in last couple years. He could see forward shaft lean in a video and say it’s not enough. Tour pros I doubt on hole 18 think let me have shaft lean.
This. THIS. Marcus is extraordinary. His depth of understanding of the human body is awesome. He doesn't approach things like a golf coach and fixes the symptoms. He fixes the root cause. Brendan, you have to stick with this and not get rabbit ears. Of course you have to have other instructors on the channel but this is the most insightful analysis you've ever had including Dr Kwan. Please focus on this. I am so glad I am a GRF student and have the infinity board.
I've followed you from the start and have a lot of same issues. This is the one instructor who finally can translate how to obtain feels in order to change movement patterns. Great stuff.
Brilliant. Marcus absolutely nailed it for you. Try throwing a frisbee with right knee collapsing and then with your torso ahead of the knee using the right flexor engaged and using that leverage you will immediately know the difference. You really had a dead right side and not been using the GRF. Even the motorcycle gets easier and balances precisely with the centripetal torque exerted on the handle.
I tried the backswing and downswing with the force on the left ball feet and I find I am in better control of my swing and its a repeatable stable swing. It took awhile to understand the concept, but it works well.
On this move, how would you describe the timing of getting to the left? Doesn't seem like he wants you recentering in transition. Getting left as you are going through the ball?
This is SUPER specific to me who is one of the few ppl who goes left too early and then too much. So I don’t really have to feel I go left until thru the shot when it feels like pushing a heavy object from the right side
As much as I like Zen golf, Eric Cogorno with Mike Malaska (This one hip move) has said the right side follows the push back of the left side, which leaves me more confused with YT instructors.
It is the Mike Malaska Joe Nicholl move that Malska has been teaching . Everybody puts it across it in their own cryptic or simple ways. Marcus give the scientific detail , making you aware and helps you evolve in your golf journey. Full credit to Brendan for bringing all the minds and teachers together. 👌
Most of us learn golf as strong adults,we power our turn like an astronaut or WPolo player All great golfers and all at my GC lower than my 5 hcp learnt as weak kids,they had to swing the club from the ground up using their only strong muscles,their legs to power their swing/turn,but they prob dont know/feel theyre doing it
I’m sorry but this might be the most detrimental instructional video I’ve ever seen. Wait, is this a parody video of everything not to do? Is it April fools or something? If you don’t believe me just imagine trying to, not only remember, but perform all these moves perfectly and in sequence in the half-second it takes to swing a golf club. This has to be a joke! I know I shouldn’t comment but Marcus is simply not making any sense physics-wise. Re the back foot: Moving weight from heel to toe is not creating torque anywhere and then he demonstrates rolling off the back foot, a classic move of many of the greatest players, and says it causes a loss of torque. Well yeah, that’s exactly what it’s supposed to do. We don’t want torque coming from the back leg. This silly idea of “pushing off the back foot” is the cause of so many golfers problems. It’s been perpetuated forever and when people try to actually do it they end up with early extension and a host of other problems. You simply cannot push anything forward if what you’re pushing with is already in front of it. Think about it, at P4 your trail hip should be behind your trail foot so how can you possibly push the hip or body or anything forward with the trail leg? You can’t. It’s physically impossible and trying to do so is disastrous to a golf swing. In order to actually do it, which people try to do because they’ve been told to do it, you have to move the trail hip in front of the foot vertically and we all know that move as "goat humping." He also mentions another fallacy “speed equals distance and time.” This is another really bad idea for golf and the cause of many problems too. This idea causes people to take the shortest route from P4 to P7 falsely thinking that it’ll produce the fastest clubhead speed, essentially skipping P5 and P6 so they never give the clubhead the time and distance it needs to accelerate properly. If the club has longer to accelerate it’ll be going faster when it reaches the ball whereas if it has a short distance, although it got there faster, it’s moving slower. I know I’m probably sounding like a jerk here but listen to what Marcus is saying closely, because what he’s advocating actually makes no sense he’s got to describe it in ridiculous or nonsensical terms. It’s driving me crazy listening to golf instructors advocate things like this. There is literally no way that a single person got anything positive or helpful out of this video. As a matter of fact he’s advocating things that are absolutely detrimental to the golf swing. The release point of the club is determined by the inverse direction of the resistance and if that's coming from the back foot that’ll put the release point behind the ball which is exactly what is most people’s problem. Marcus may know how to swing a golf club well himself but like many pros and good golfers he’s simply completely wrong about how to describe it. Just because someone can do something doesn’t mean they can describe exactly what they’re actually doing. They only know how to do it, not how to tell their body what to do. This is why golf is so hard for so many. When they’re playing well it’s just a feeling and a feeling isn’t knowing what you’re doing it’s only doing it. Even Brandon's attempt to swing off the right foot is completely misunderstood and improperly explained. Watch it again closely - he’s not pushing off his back foot his pushing backward with his front foot. The back leg is bending and the front leg is straightening so which one is doing the pushing? It is physically impossible to push with a leg that is bending! It’s literally taking me over an hour to watch this because I can’t believe what I’m seeing and hearing. “You’re body’s not got a release pattern today …” Yeah, no kidding! You just gave him about 20 different things to attempt to do. It would destroy anyone’s release pattern. The golf swing needs to as simple and athletic as possible. Instruction should simplify not complicate things.
This is the eternally frustrating part of golf instruction. You spend 2 years deadening your right side because everyone says early extension is killing your and along comes another guy who says the exact opposite thing and boom, your lost again for the millionth time in an abyss of conflicting swing thoughts even more frustrated that before. ugh
If you want to know how the right side really works, the truth of “pushing off the right foot” and recentering, please see Athletic Motion Golf. I agree Marcus is enthusiastic but his information is not correct.

This is 100% the best lesson you've had. Marcus is a genius coach

Wow. Great analysis!
Thank you! I have the exact same problem - using my right knee driving in - very illuminated- can’t wait to try it on the range. Thank you!
I tried the backswing and downswing with the force on the left ball feet and I find I am in better control of my swing and its a repeatable stable swing. It took awhile to understand the concept, but it works well.
Marcus is one of the BEST !
I agree 100%
I love this man's energy!!! Marcus 👍
Me too!
It’s like Pilates / physical therapy for golf. This series with Marcus is great.
So much to unpack here. Fantastic stuff.
Thanks
So staying on the right side and turning torso thru?
Pushing from the right side like u we’re pushing a piano across a floor
Great video, gents!
Are we lifting the heel or not to turn onto front foot?
heel lifts and then plants closer to target. mini version of kenny perry

T right leg role is like you were pushing super heavy door open with your trail arm and u feel the trail leg dig into the ground.
Most of us learn golf as strong adults,we power our turn like an astronaut or WPolo player
All great golfers and all at my GC lower than my 5 hcp learnt as weak kids,they had to swing the club from the ground up using their only strong muscles,their legs to power their swing/turn,but they prob dont know/feel theyre doing it
Another great video!!
If I put pressure down I automatically come up
Map is definitely skewed
GG was right
the gg move on the squat?
1st comment!😂😂
Thanks for tuning in!
Have to get more athletic Brandon!
I’m sorry but this might be the most detrimental instructional video I’ve ever seen.

marcus likes extension, like bubba and jt, just not early. you should ask him
Good but the guy is too result oriented. At this phase it's training body movements
This is the eternally frustrating part of golf instruction. You spend 2 years deadening your right side because everyone says early extension is killing your and along comes another guy who says the exact opposite thing and boom, your lost again for the millionth time in an abyss of conflicting swing thoughts even more frustrated that before. ugh

k will do
Whats with all the RVs inbackground
The lot rents them
This guy is gonna have golfers swinging over the top like crazy. 😢😢
