Alex as someone who has watch countless videos of yours (and a number of YT golf channels) about how hit the driver straight or straighter, to date literally none of training and fixes have worked and this one probably won't either, your training is both entertaining and informative, but for some us it's not solving the problems. Get a player who is struggling on with you and have them hit the ball, we know you can hit on command whatever shot you describe
What works for me is the feeling of at the top the club is moving slightly back in my right hand just before I put my weight into my left side and that works great for me with irons and driver.
Great vid thanks! I'm wondering how to properly feel like i'm keeping my back to target. Practicing this makes me hit way behind the ball. How do I mix this with leading with the hips, or other movements in the swing?
I love this video. But I always struggled understanding the bowed left wrist idea. I’m right handed get better results when I’m more focused on my right hand. I recently found some other videos that focus on backwards bending of the right wrist. I believe it’s basically the same idea but focused on the right wrist. Might help others like me. Thoughts?
I am the same. I have found that if I concentrate on getting to the ball with a cupped right wrist I get great contact, more distance etc. etc. ultimately it’s the same result, but I find this much easier that trying to concentrate on a bowed left wrist.
A driver doesn't have a flat face. The very reason for a wood having a bulge and roll on its face is for gearing effect, which helps with off centre hits. That's why Bryson DeChambeau's 3D printed irons have a curved face as well.
300+ fade sounds perfectly fine and functional... I guarantee that if you change that fantastic fade, you will struggle with speed, face control and strike. Also you will be used to seeing that fade and trusting your new shot shape on course is going to be a challenge. Although you can create power swinging more around and you won´t slice it, the dynamics of that swing and release will be so different that it will cost you in fine control. Also your brain is used to seeing those big fades and will try to create those on course. You will need maybe 1-3 years of training and playing to fully adjust. I would seek a coach that would help you manage YOUR swing, not change it. (That is, if I were you... I myself have never taken a lesson.)
Alex. Love the content, but slice can also be caused by shaft lean. Backwards lean will give you fade/ slice. To far forward, will draw/ hook. Maybe do a video o that.😊
These videos with your videographer asking questions really help. She's asking the questions that I have when trying to do these drills. Please keep her on.
I know I cup my wrist - I just can’t seem to stop it. If i try to change the wrist during the downswing coming to contact then I am quite likely to pull the shot 45 degrees left! So, big question. If I know I can’t change my wrist through the swing why can’t I (and everyone else except elite players) pre-set the wrist either at set up or at the top of the back swing?

Great video guys, For me the most important thing I've picked up is keeping your lead shoulder pointing at the ball for as long as you can 👍
Absolutely so key!!!

Thank you… will definitely address this for sure 🙌🏼
Mic your camera person so we can hear the comments / questions that you're responding to. GREAT material ... love your channel!
I can hear them just fine.
Noted!Thank you ❤️

This is THE most important drill and information. Thanks, Alex.

Completely get it, i do like that concept

Brilliant Alex, thank you.

Hitting 300 yds plus but always a big fade (sometimes slice). Let's see if this video can help us out or not. Fingers crossed 😊

Get rid of the girl .. asking stuff he has already explained is just plain annoying
Haha it’s hard to know what’s right or wrong to be honest, not all videos will include her but the feedback has been really good to be honest!

brilliant 🎉
Wouldn’t a weak grip solve problem of cupping wrist at impact ??
This is gold
🙌🏼❤️
A much easier drill for the release is the HITCHHIKER DRILL. Thumbs up on back swing, then up again on the follow through!!!!!
You look like the kids in the trunk of the car in 16 Candles… Still love ya
