In this video, we're going to show you how you can stop hitting pulls.
This is one of the most frustrating shots in the entire game, but it's also one of the most common shots that we see amateur golf players make aside from slicing the ball or hitting it fat.
We're going to show you how much damage this shot can cause & how you can keep it out of your golf game!
Guys I can't stress enough how great this video is!! I have watched a million videos on how to get the club to shallow or in the slot. This is far the best and has changed my game massively! Massive respect 🙏 👏🏼
it really is amazing. I watched this a year ago, it never clicked until about a week ago. once you feel that move of hands away (corner of room) to start the downswing it all makes sense.
This is priceless for 99% of the golfers out there, one of the best educational videos of the golf swing I have seen.
wow thank you very much
This could legitimately be the best advice I've heard since learning golf, because the 'arm down the chest' movement is so powerful because its not only very visual and you can physically feel it as it moves down your chest. I'm practicing this right now and it's transformative.
I genuinely cannot thank you two enough, youve really saved my soul.
I was at a place where I wanted to quit the game I love, due to my over-the-top swing, that I couldn't fix.
I'm so relieved.
Any update after 4 months? How is your swing?
Hi guys I started watching your u tube videos 2 weeks ago and a new world of instruction opened up for me.I have studied the game for 50+ years and your clear instruction based on 3d is the best I have seen.Keep up your great work.
You guys are awesome. Fantastic video. Watched this right before going out to play 9. Shot a 40 (14.2 handicap). I had 3 birdie looks and 1 eagle look (putting was terrible today). I can't remember the last time I hit that many greens in regulation. I even had a shot that I had not experienced very often. I hit my pitching wedge fat, but instead of dribbling 30 yards in front of me, it was only 10-15 yards short, and went right at the target. Looking down I saw an extremely shallow, dollar bill shaped divot. Turns out I think I've been fighting this most of the last year playing golf. Going to hit the range later to solidify this feeling. Thanks fellas.
I've been waiting for this one for a while! I had this issue last year and there isn't a lot of content around this issue. A majority of swing fix content is surrounded around coming over the top and slicing the ball. When I was pull hooking the ball I thought I was doing opposite of over the top and that made my swing worse. The start line is something I had to figure out and nobody has really addressed this. Great video, thanks!
Awesome, we hope it helps!
My "Bad Miss" has always been the "Pull" to "Pull Hook" as I progressed up into "Longer Clubs".
I am more conscious of "getting my Hands Down" at the start of the Downswing, and while this has lessened the Severity of the "Pull" to "Pull Hook" these can still be there.
In the last week or so I remembered a Freddie Couples move of "creating an Inside Loop" with the Hands and Club.
I'll focus on this "Rearward Hand Path" move in my next range sessions.
Thanks, Guys.
Such good technical advice, but even moreso, such brilliant swing-change advice. Had a lesson today trying to fix this, and did exactly what you said. Got the 'feel' using a few drills, then went and hit balls full speed. When my coach was recording me 'feeling through' the new motion in some 30% speed practice swings before hitting, it was all good. But as soon as I went to hit the ball the old motion came in again. So yeah, really appreciate how good you guys are with the swing technically, but also in terms of habitual change!
This is the secret sauce to great club path control. My moto for this is to remember the hands handles the down portion of the swing and the torso handles the around portion of the swing. Great video.
yes! Love it
I am 64 and been a LONG time over-the-top-pull-hook culprit. I watched this video and played 2 rounds and played some of my best drives and longer iron shots ever. I play off 6 and have a good short game/putting but have fought left misses for the past 5-6 years. These video tips are brilliant....many thanks. Your videos and explanations are fantastic....much appreciated.
wow thats great!!!
This is currently my absolute biggest problem! Thanks for taking the time to make this video guys; I can't wait to apply this at the range!
Great!!!
I feel like I'm responsible for the making of this video.
hahahaha
Seriously, me too. Hours of videos on slicing, good to see some tips for the pull hookers, lol
@@tomlusby4989 hahah love it
@@tomlusby4989 lol, the sad thing is, they weren't even sneaky. My wife and I took lessons, then three days later this. Ha, I must have really left my mark.
Fellow hooker here. I went from a 3 to a 9 this year mainly because I pull almost every tee show. So frustrating and I’m on the verge of quitting golf
The drill at the 7:35 or so mark in the video worked miracles in my practice session today. I watch a lot of golf videos ... probably way too many .. but this one worked wonders for me. Thanks.
Thanks for the vid. There’s tons of videos on how to fix/help a slice, but very few on hooks/pull hooks. I’ve been fighting them for 6+years. And it’s more frustrating then a slice. Most golf courses cater to the slicer but definitely not someone who hooks the ball. I fight over top and get handys and close the face and it’s not pretty.
Great GREAT video! Thanks so much for this!
I've struggled for years with knowing what to do with my arms/hands in the downswing. I never understood how I could possibly bring the club back to the ball by dropping my hands and turning. I've always had an over the top "arm-sy" swing as I tried to generate all the club head speed by moving my arms/hands faster. It is very inconsistent and I never know what swing I'll have when I go out to play. The last month, I've been pulling my short irons and wedges 20 yards to the left so this video couldn't have found me at a better time.
This explanation clicked for me when no other has! You're absolutely right about practicing this drill at slow speeds first. I've been able to learn the feel as I slowly ramp up the swing speed. Thank you!
you guys are absolutely killing the instructional content. if you are ever in Texas I would love to meet you two, maybe play or get a lesson.
This is exactly the video I needed to see. For the last month I have been working on trying to pick up a little speed and that has created this dreadful PULL shot that I could not figure out why I was doing this. Before a started to add more speed this did not happen. This video shows what I have been doing by trying to rotate faster thus putting my heads in the wrong path.
Thank you for this video, going to go try this now.
Cheers✌️
I've been pulling the freakin' ball for, I don't know, forever!!! Going to try this. I was always taught to pull the grip to the ball or a little outside the ball. Never heard the hands should be steep and the club shallows. If this works, I'll be one happy son of a bean!
loved the visual lines of the hand paths from good side and bad side. That really put it into perspective for me being able to see the difference. Video really helped make sense of what I'm doing and can now start to work on this. Thanks.
This is the best video out there. The pointing the clubhead into the corner of the room clicks in my head better than anything. For 20 years, I have suffered from random pull shots on longer clubs. This helped tremendously.
thanks for the kind words!!!!!!!!
This is the best explanation and cure for pull hooks I have ever seen...and produces immediate results. Thanks guys.
I have struggled with this for 15 years after I got rid of the slice. Just hit 100 balls and did not pull one. I did not realize I was also pulling even short pitchs, which this fixed as well. So, of course to me, your best video of all time, thanks.
9:15
so awesome!
Took a lesson with the guys and we didn’t cover this drill but we definitely worked on getting the club behind. This video helps explain further for me.
The last bit about rolling the left arm down is gold! Have been using the pivot you suggested,, added the arm move and the driver is money!
Excellent drill. Will have to give this a go at the range. I video a LOT and have success with a hand path left and ive done it so long I can feel as though I control the face etc but everytime I watch video HARD handfuls LEFT through impact. Will give this a go. Thanks
I’m not really a fan of you guys...but, this is best instruction I’ve ever found on how to STOP pulling shots and the effects of pulling the club (spearing) with your hands at the ball. Keeping the left arm connected to your chest is huge too. Well done guys! 😊
Thanks for watching! We hope it helps 😊
Thanks boys!
Great video. I experienced this correct action once when I played w a super sore lower back. My only swing thought was to limit movement in lower back and hips. I had one of the best ball striking rounds ever. Lol
this has been my problem since trying to sort out my flat swing plane. hooking left with higher swing plane. didn't realise pulling my hands down from behind me would help. I'm hitting the range tomorrow. thanks very much.
EXCELLENT LESSON!!!!!!!!!!! It fixed my pull shots, thank you SO MUCH GUYS!!!!
Me me me me me. I was told to drive the end of the grip into the golf ball. After having hit probably 1million balls as a youngster it is so ingrained. I am now getting back into golf after a 35 year hiatus. I fight it every day. Just chasing a feel. I think I am almost there with drills and feels like you are doing/saying. Thanks again. Cheers
As an occasional puller of the ball, I loved this approach and will try doing it in slow motion at the range with the idea of letting the club fall before firing through. 😊Ken J.
After trying this myself I found that pulling the my left hand down to my belt was the most useful thought. Plus not firing the left side of the body out of the way too much helps.
Great explanation! Could you by chance post a video with the camera angle directly behind the hands? That would help me make sure I am doing the drill correctly.
I WATCHED THIS VIDEO FOR THE SECOND TIME & IT IS AMAZING!! I decided to try this on second last time out. Hit an amazing 6 iron & my golf partner went WOW that was really good. I said I just had an epiphany from watching this video(this one) & I think I just learned the missing link to correct my pulls. The second part was my recalling your saying we can't really "see" the takeaway in 2D as it is. So I took it what felt a little wider & did a loop at the top. I call it the Infinity sign swing!
Thanks. Going to try it out. I have a lot of speed and when it goes bad it is homerun down the leftfield line. Keep up the good work fellas.
Great let us know how it goes !!
I’m going to go work on this today!! I know my club face is closed when I get to the ball thus the ball starts left. My path is out to in so I am pretty much toast!! Will see if this concept helps!
An another eyes-opening video! Always love your channel's contents, they are very educational and data-based. Thank you! :)
Great video. Exactly what my problem is. Pulls, long divots and a low left shoulder at impact, although my hands were forward. I tried a lot of remedies including trying to push the left side back at impact more and more. but to no avail. I did not realise that the problem was caused by path and my left upper arm moving away from my chest too soon. Thanks to you! I now have a better impact position with a higher left shoulder, much shorter divots! And a better ball flight. Thanks to your analysis of Gears also and for exploding the hand to ball path myth.
Lol, this is crazy how I’ve played golf for 30 years, and a strip mall indoor driving range pro corrected my hand path today just like this video. Incredible change in my ball striking.
I would suggest in a similar fashion a slow-motion Matt Wolff golf swing, hitting a 7-iron only 110 yards with a push draw, would help 95% of golfers improve their game - I used this drill many times this last summer on the range to help every golfer that needed help. The over the top crowd, both slicers & pullers, need to do this in slow motion for about 50 balls because any attempt at speed will immediately get the handle going out until their brain gets the feel of looping the club opposite to what they usually do
Fantastic video guys this is my big problem in my golf game , I can't wait to go to the range to practice this
Thanks 👍
Come back here and let us know how it went! We love hearing from you all!
Perfect timing...I just finished watching videos of myself doing #1 and thinking of ways to correct it. I've just been trying pull my hands down and missing the movement back piece. Can't wait to try this drill tomorrow.
Real good explanation on hand path and trail arm bend...
Do u have any vids on pressure and weight shift
Thanks
My round on Sunday consisted about about 35-40 pulled shots. After watching your video and a few practice swings it became so clear that my issue is a path problem caused by my hands. I can't wait to try this on the range tonight. Thank you so much.
One thing I've never been able to figure out though. Why is the pull such a powerful shot? In my experience, whenever I pull a shot it's an absolute rocket and easily carries 1-2 clubs more than my normal shot.
Mike Stock, I have been told it’s because you are hitting the ball with a closed(hooded) club face and making solid contact. Do your pulls usually draw a little(or a lot)? I practiced this today and when done correctly I had a nice push to the right that drew back towards the target anywhere from 5-10 yards and went 10-25 yards farther than my “normal” straight shot. My divot was right of my target when done correctly where my normal divot is pointed left of target(even on straight shots). Still need much more practice to get it consistent but I am excited about what I saw and felt today. Hope you get the same results. Now if I can get my green reading more accurate I might have a solid game.
I want to personally thank y'all for this video. The illustrations you demonstrated with the gears models spoke volumes of how to properly direct the momentum of the club the correct way. Now I'm seeing shots on the golf course that I could only dream of.
love it
Great video. Shaun and Mike, is this thought correct? Your feedback appreciated. If one was standing upright the concept is the hands just lifting in the backswing (by raising the arms at the shoulder joints and bending the right arm); in the downswing just lower the arms and straighten the right arm. Now make the same movements but bent forward in golf posture. No need to pull the hands further back behind you in the downswing to create the initial movement back; just drop the arms and straighten the right arm; the bent forward posture means the hands will initially travel back away from the ball.
yes thats basically it :)
Great video, I'm in the UK and had my swing changed by my pro to a (more into out/figure of 8 swing) but was really struggling with the new change which meant I would really pull my shots. Going to give this a go, this really makes a lot of sense thanks so much for this.
let us know how it goes!
@@AthleticMotionGolf It's transformed my iron shots to a nice right to left draw, I'm now just waiting for the spring competitions to start and some sunshine.
Excellent stuff- thanks for sharing this.
You are so right about alignment....aimed right is a disaster....shanks, pulls...and thought I was aimed at the target...lol.
Now my brain thinks I am aimed 10 yards left when in reality aim is perfect. So difficult to get the brain recalibrated. I must pick a spot in front of the ball towards my target or I am back to aiming right...ugh.
Aim straight and I have a chance of getting the arms inside/out on the downswing....and no more pulls/shanks due to outside/in path.
Fabulous explanation and fix drills. Really enjoyed the demonstration and have already tried it in the back yard. Can't wait until driving ranges and golf courses reopen after lock-down.
Thanks!!!
I liked your hand speed video - it combines well with this hand path vid.
This works! The drill is perfect. After years of pulling the ball, I went to the range and tried the drill as instructed and actually hit the ball straight or with a slight fade which is a ball flight I previously could not produce. Thanks!
great!!
Hi guys. The benefit of having GEARS is invaluable.I just watched "Say goodbye to pull shots" video. With your help I've finally eliminated my over the top swing path after 50 years of slicing etc. However I've now developed a powerful pull shot.Any comments which might help me apart from the Justin Rose drill
What a great video illustration. Top notch instruction!
Thanks brother!
Awesome stuff! Love seeing you guys in the simulator! Glad you're back.
Thanks!!
Absolutely!!! Yes, yes and yes. Excellent explanation, as usual. Great job, guys. Thanks!!!!
I've been doing this lately, particularly with the short irons and wedges. I'll try this, thanks.
Been struggling with this all year. Will be trying this at the range tomorrow morning
Great drill! I’m bottoming out behind the ball and hitting them a bit thin. I know it’s due to poor weight transfer on the downswing. Trying not to fix one problem and create a new one. Thanks for sharing.
The shaft traces the plane line but the hands trace a line slightly inside the plane line to accommodate the angle between the lead forearm and clubshaft. Most golfers treat the lead arm and clubshaft as if they are in a straight line through impact.
Thanks fellas! Another concept that a lot of us amateurs get wrong!
The Skipper and Gilligan strike again! Great info guys.
hahahha. :)
Would make a great Halloween episode.
If you’re super coordinated but don’t know this move you’ll end up laying the club way flat to compensate, then you’ll suffer a massive hook as you early extend. It’s really fun.
One of my favorite videos! Great job! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I'm having a problem with doing both of the examples combined. The "old baseball swing" throwing hands to the ball and squashing the Bug early. I end up with my right heel off the ground and arms parallel, over the top and throwing hands at the ball..this is dead on. Just got to try it now.
Would love a driver version of this. Surely many concepts are the same but that big stick have ways of messing with the head.
How can you hit a cut from the position you’re showing? It looks like you’re coming way inside and if the face is open at all it’s push cut city. I love the content here fellas. Always helpful
I really struggle with over the top which leads to shanks. I'm going to give this a go. Thanks.
Great demonstration guys, pulled shots are such a killer on the golf course. Love that Justin Rose drill too. Cheers
thanks!!
i think everyone was taught to pull the left hand onto the ball. the key is to just simply keep the left arm out of the peripheral vision on the way down. the hands and arms won't get trapped, or pull round, and the club will find its arc in a connected movement. and, the left chest will react against the left arm, in the start of the downswing, and turn to left. the left arm and the left chest will then work as antagonistic opposites; which will increase the coil in the start of the downswing.
Thanks. Very informative. Will try this out next few range seesions
A little complicated content in the beginiing but later in the video with the gears portion all made it very clear
Hello Guys, great content as always. Working through your swing system and watching your videos has really allowed me to understand the need to get my arms moving before I press the rotate button. At least on some slow motion swings, this has made a big difference to my ball striking. Regarding this video, however, I have a question on lead arm adduction. I have seen and read that lead arm abduction is important for a correct golf motion. When I see Shaun swing,, especially in the first drill, to my eyes, the left arm stays pinned on the chest. Given I’m not an instructor, I’m likely to have this wrong, but would really appreciate your view on this point.
The motion of the left arm can work down the chest but it will not be pinned to the chest... What you want to avoid is the left arm being pinned to the chest(upper and lower arm). Part of what youre seeing is the camera angle distortion also :)
Great teaching
This Handpath issue for me constantly results in a pull slice since my clubface is open. A big wipe. Thanks for this video.
glad it helped!!
just wanted to thank you for this lesson it has helped my swing.
Great!!!!!
Gents
Amazing video as always. I very much struggle with the nomenclature then concept of how old you are defining steep hands / shallow path and shallow hands / steep hands. I have watched probably 50 if your videos and still struggle with this concept. Would you ever consider a video to contrast and compare the two different concepts? Do you have a video from your previous work that I missing? I would love to see it. As always, amazing work. Watching your videos has kept me sane in the pandemic. I cannot thank you enough.
we will do a video for you!
Thanks guys another great video I've been hitting pull hooks lately and I bet this will help
Yessir!
This lesson helped me A LOT!!
Thank you !!!
Damn just the video I need. Nice stuff 👍 thanks from Australia
Hi Gents, Great video! However I have to ask for clarity, the words turn and rotation are used interchangeably ie demo of drill. They are are not the same, please clarify what brings the club back to square.
Top video and the correct swing path
I seem to pull my short irons and wedges.. when I get over the ball now I try to stay with the shot and follow through towards the hole. Seems to help. Thanks
Stop revealing all the secrets of the golf swing!!! I really don't need more competition out there.
hhaha sorry about that!
I’ve been told I hit left because of early extension. What this tells me is that this is not the cause, it’s how I start my down swing with my hands. That down and away move feels very foreign but quite free, like that’s where the club wants to be (clearly!!).
So would a good feel be to leave your back facing the target longer in the transition to give arms time to come down?
that could help :)
For me when you point out the error it detracts from the lesson. Just as the lesson starts to connect the diversion to the error confuses the message. Love you stuff most always.
Watched this while back. Think my phone heard me yell "pulled it again" 😅 put it back in my algorithm
Great video
Sorry I don’t see the link for the consistent swing video
Thanks
Chad
Great video and explanation!
Thanks Sam!
Great advice wish I had seen it 10 years ago.
Thanks for this good info. I've been a low handicapper 'puller' for years. My question is , do golfers who transition to what you are saying ever get a case of the 'shanks' as they pull the club down and around from the inside like this?
Great video. With my long woods and driver its hard to keep hands close to right thigh and still hit it pure
just try to make sure you don't take the hands at the ball in transition
Watched this like 5 times finally clicked. Absolutely puring range shots. Could shape it both ways with any club. Any trajectory I wanted. Could swing as hard as I wanted and still hit sweet spot. Can’t wait to take it to the course.
Love it, awesome job👏💪
Back a year later, not clicking again 🤣
Great advice. What I have been looking for.
This is great info! I’ve got bad golfers elbow and flinch! I anticipate the pain at impact and yank it left. Against doctors advise, I still play even with mild pain. What can I do to avoid the flinching? Sometimes the flinching also causes my wrists to break on the follow through and not pronate.
Excellent demo to cure a pull...i thought the arms need to be quiet in a swing...does the pivot shallow the arms?
thanks for this!!! the pull was soooo frustrating.. cause contact with the ball was so nice.. sounded nice...felt nice.. but result would be 30 yards right of target and long ( I am a lefty).. next golf technology needed would be a LEFTY button on youtube so it would flip your video around and AI would change left to right and right to left every time those words were used... ;o) thanks again from up here in Canada...
hope to visit your centre some day when travel opens again!
BRILlIANT! Love this! Just what I was looking for.
Great!!!
