    I've followed your channels since 2013. I avg 208 on the course (SS data) - due to mishits and the ball going errant (smother hook) - trees tend to shorten drives. When I go to the driving range I spend about 20 balls with my driver and swing out of my socks. It actually helps me keep distances up with all clubs especially as I age.

    Done this myself. Started with my coach in November. I was a 5 handicap getting no better. I was bored. Wanted to improve. Never had great rotation. Worked so hard with vertical forces and now seeing the improvements. I was 98 mph with driver. I’m now 106 and rising. Improved rotation. Better strike. First time in ages I’m really looking forward to a new season. Totally get the intent point and not playing it safe.

    • @deldridg

      Exactly my story. Was off 4, now out to 8 (recent family loss etc.), around 100 mph and feeling like I'm not likely to get below 4 (bit of work to do to get back there however). Big motivation in the form of a 13yo son (only 36kg and 150cm) who is now singles and hitting his driver 200m at around 85% fairways hit. He can beat me off the stick, but I can still outdrive him and I want to keep it that way for some time yet! At 55 I hope there is still hope. Great to hear of your success Mark.

    I've been watching your channel for years and you have absolutely transformed my game in that time. I've gone from mid 90s to low 80s in about the last 4 years. I've gone from hitting a MASSIVE slice to bringing it into a fade that misses right from time to time. Every time I watch a video of yours, I pull a club out and start swinging away in my living room (much to the chagrin of my wife and cats) to see if I can incorporate the new information into my swing. That being said, you blew my mind with the wall analogy. My hip sway is gone (been trying to fix that for months) and I feel so much more stable throughout the swing. Thank you for that, Mark. Keep going and thank you for your content.

    I have been completely changing my golf swing looking to gain primarily consistent and more accuracy while having distance as a secondary goal. I was swinging extremely hard and still only getting 105mph club speed really giving it everything I have. Only when I found 3 videos, this being one of them, am I putting all the pieces together and realizing the problems. Everything in your "before" is what I was doing. I've increased my accuracy significantly, increased my club speed to 115, while hardly swinging the club (at least compared to previous). I'm excited to put it all together and get out on the course this year. This video seems to put the whole picture in perspective. Great job mate. :D

    Mark, congratulations on 320+. I first discovered you in 2017 while my newborn twin girls were in NICU. Your energy and excitement inspired me to make a return to playing golf.
    From 2005-2012 I could shoot under par on any given day. A severe back injury put a stop to all that and I lost all interest in golf. I tried to play a few times but I'd lost all feel of the club and my power was gone. It wasn't till you that I started to find all that again. I still bag a set of Mizuno mp-32's I bought brand new. With your help I hope to return them to their glory days.
    Thank you so much for helping me rebuild my game and find the joy of golf again! Many blessings to you my friend!

    Mark this is excellent content. As a ‘safe’ scratch golfer growing up with the end of persimmon and balata in the 90s hitting fairways was my skill. Distance, not so much. As I’m now mid 40s I want to unlock my potential and gain yards. Working on my body I’ve lost 6 stone in weight and with a physio/trainer ensure I’m injury free and mobile and improving swing mechanics with Damian Taylor. I’m working on exactly the same as you to unlock that distance puzzle. Makes so much sense so anyone else watching … Mark is on the money here. I’m a 150 ball speed wafter and working on 160 and then 165 as my goal for next summer. The ‘intent’ you emphasis … is key. Thanks Mark. Fantastic content. 🎉

    Congratulations Mark! Years of watching your videos I developed a similar slide across swing with driver which helped me loads with hitting target and not blocking shots. With your most recent videos I have made a slight adjustment to focus more on rotation and straightening left leg and trying to take off and while I am not yet measuring to the level you are I have been hitting longer drives on the range and course.
    More practice and a lesson needed. Thanks for the insightful videos and information

All this time, the one splinter in my mind has been your distances hit Mark. I'm in my mid 40's and I comfortably sit in the late 160MPH 300yard drives. I'm not bragging. I've just wished for years that you would unshackle yourself a little and hit bloody thing harder. And today the day has finally come where I see the golf swing I've believed for years that you could do. The next step might be to slide that front leg out of the way a touch to slam some mighty 300+ bombs. It's a drug. Once you've gone 300 you can't go back. Love your work, mate! Now get yourself down under! There are hordes waiting to have a round with you.

    I enjoy watching an established and knowledgeable person journey through changes that challenge "old" ways of thinking and embrace trial and error (using quantifiable data in your case). I know I've picked up several nuggets from your videos that have helped me in my attempts to get better, specifically since early 2020. I can proudly say, with the help of one lesson (iron striking/compressing the ball) and committing to getting better (well, as much as a weekend hacker can), I have seen big distance gains across my bag--at least 2 clubs with irons and ~30 yards in performance average with the driver (according to Shot Scope--244 yds in 2020, longest 278 yds, pre-lesson, vs. 273 yds as of today, longest of 330 yds). Even better, I finally broke 90 last year and have 2 rounds of 86 under my belt this season! This is huge for me!!! I can't count how many times you've recommended getting lessons, but I'm happy I finally listened! Cheers Mark 🍻

    Great video Mark. I had similar revolations recently with my general golf game. I felt I wasn't getting the distances I once had and fell into a trap of playing safe golf and then into a lazy swing. I suddenly thought to myself my swing needs to be more athletic and powerful. I gripped the club slightly tighter ans used my shoulders to turn rather than my arms leading the takeaway. Then on down swing to pivot my hips to start downswing and really jump into my lead foot. Some how it worked and started hitting ball further and dispersion was pretty good, if not better.

This could be just the answer I've been looking for, for a long time now. can't wait to try it. Thanks Mark!

    Loving this! Pressing hard is something I’m always guilty of, costs me a lot of shots but basically my intent is there!! Just lacking in face control, a problem that I’ve had in my entire 20+ years of playing.
    If I try to play safe the problems are still there, so why not ‘intend’ to get closer all the time..?! The psychological reward is there when it works even if the reality is still your overall score doesn’t improve, it’s those rewards that keep us coming back to the course time and time again as amateurs..
    Well done on that 320 tho, seriously, you can go to the course now knowing those 280 , 290 greens are easily within your ability to hit or at worst get pin high for birdie opportunity without forcing it. Nice work!

As others have said: Definitely like to see how to time that lead leg movement (and any adjustments to the rest of the swing)- maybe with some ideas as to how it could be measured for those of us without access to force plates, e.g. key moments in a video of the swing(?)
    I think move the green to 340: looks like you’ll be getting to 330 in no time! 😁👍

    Congrats Mark! Would love to hear more details about your swing feels vs reals metrics. and especially some slo-mos.. ex: do you feel like you're keeping lead arm pinned to your chest longer or etc... I'm already swing pretty fast but I sadly can't keep it on the planet so It's not as much for speed as much as I love everything technical... I have a radar and sim so it gives something to play with during winter. Thanks

    Well done!!
    It’s so funny to look back at #262 now and all of the excuses you gave yourself when you had all of this potential inside of you all that time!
    Well done mate, great to see and learn from!

    Great vid Mark. Congrats on the 320. 😁
    Had a recent lesson on the same thing with posting on my left leg. With my irons it felt at impact that I was flipping my hands but the trackman numbers showed that I was actually 1.2° down and was hitting it 8yards further than before I made those changes.
    Shows how important that measuring is to prove that you are doing the right things but that also feel is not real.

    Congrats on finally hitting that green!!! It would be great to see a video of different ideas about how you use your legs, when I try it how you’ve explained previously I find myself almost falling back after hitting the ball and feel like my right leg almost gets over taken by the jump motion. Thanks for the videos and again congrats!

    Well done Mark, After a long layoff through commitments and then illness I am now back playing and trying to change my swing totally I was never long but pretty accurate and at the moment the swing speed and ball compression is starting to arrive but your right it's soooo hard to have the intent when I could hit 2 clubs more and not be 40 yards left and right of where I aimed. This video has spurred me on to keep persevering longer at least so more videos on this topic would be welcomed by me at least 👍

    Mark, the gems in your back catalogue appear to have no end. I missed this one when it was released (I am subscribed and belled but life must have put up a blocker!) Wish I had a launch monitor for that feedback required to commit as you say but we can still push the belief by watching the end result beyond some numbers on the screen. Great video, yet again.

    Inspiring. I've started messing around with my son doing some speed training stuff. Just getting started and I've gotten up to 102 SS. The great thing is being able to dial it back into that controllable swing on the course and getting a solid 8-10yds. deeper on a lot of holes. Already have seen it on several par 5's last month. My old "max" is my new average and my new average is getting that 1.5 smash sending it out to 250 carry range. I'll check out more videos. My goal is to crack into the 150+ ballspeeds and stay there. Get my new max to be my new "average" swing by next spring.

  • @Frazmatazz7473
    @Frazmatazz7473 2 года назад

    I'm was similar to you Mark, feeling like I was playing at 70% and playing "pat" golf. Tried to analyse my swing and change my takeaway but it still wasn't right. So I recently went for a lesson and it changed me completely. Stronger grip and more hip movement in the back swing has left me with more space to get after the ball. It feels totally alien but the improvements or distance and ball flight out weight the old reliable feelings I have 💣

    What a transformation! I have been watching you for years, and you give me hope for shifting my needle as well. Can you go into more detail on the correct weight shift in the swing? I can definitely tell the difference in the hip rotation as well.

  • @krwesenb

    Really interesting video, great to hear it, and hear how happy you were with hitting. Been trying myself this year, and working in the gym It's been really interesting, seen a 169 and 171 ball on a launch monitor, only problem on the course is that it goes a little bit too much everywhere and trouble is occasionally a bit too much part of the game!

    Good on you Mark, never stop trying to push the limits.. I just did one of mine too.
    The other day ,while still autumn, good weather,, First hole,, I hit the drive, passing the bunker on the right, I got on the green, at, 287m,,
    had a laugh,, met 2 mates on the back 9, mentioned the drive on one,, they said ye but can you do it on 10,, It had left and right front bunkers ,I hit my drive, Passing both bunkers,I got on the green while group in front were still putting,, They couldn't hear us yell out FOOUUR! that was 293m.. I finally did the double,, 1&10 same day.. that was one of my bucket lists. At 62, age is just a number for me,, I'm an 8 H/C and the next goal is scratch, and that is 90% putting for me. Sure there are scratch player in their 60's but my driving still gets people asking How do you do it.. Limits are challenges and challenges are opportunities. well done,, keep inspiring.

    M-a-r-k...... ;>) your '262 to 320' video is Amazing Sir! I cannot wait to try it! Congrats on your transformation. I don't know how to slow down your swing to super slo-mo but that would be awesome too. I fully get what it is you're doing though, no worries. That @min 5 'wall' explanation is great.

  • @rorymccauley

    Thanks so much for this helpful video. Another lesson in not being a perfectionist! We can be so afraid of failure that we don't try something that might be weird or uncomfortable at first, but could really improve our game. I'll watch this one again for sure!
