- This is helping so many golfers right now!!! You need to listen up to this new move that will 100% keep you so much more connected through the backswing, this is something that I have struggled with in the past and know that a lot of my golf clients have too. In this short and simple golf lesson here on RUclips Top 50 coach Alex Elliott PGA teaches you the secret to connection in the backswing. By keeping the body, arms and hands in line with each other, you can create a more consistent golf swing, sounds simple right? But how you do you actually achieve this consistently, we need a drill that is going to work ALL THE TIME because once connected, any golfer can simply rotate and the club face will strike the back of the ball time after time, meaning we add distance, we drop shots, we strike the golf ball longer, straighter, reduce our handicap.... the benefits are endless.
This drill has helped so many golfers of all different abilities, I have had so many different questions on the channel about backswing connection, wrists in the golf swing, backswing tips, improving connection in the backswing, backswing tips with driver, backswing tips with irons, secret connection , connection tips, backswing connection, the secret to connection in the backswing, arm connection in golf swing, arms together in golf swing, arms in golf swing, golf tips for beginners driving, golf tips driving straight, connection in the golf swing... you get the gist!!

*Who’s going to be trying this out when you next play? DON’T forget to ask away here in comments if you have any questions about the video*
You always give the best tips because of the fact that your tips are easy to implement into our swings with the drills. Keep up the good work
That’s what I like about your videos Alex. You always explain what we should be doing and why.
Thanks again
I appreciate that!
Took about 20 something balls to get it right, but this absolutely fixed my striking. Thanks very much.
Hi Alex love your videos. Could you do one for how you adapt you swing for different lies? Hitting the ball on the course is so different to the range. Thanks
Yeah i will try and cover this in another video for sure! 🙌🏼 Thanks for tuning in
Love this lesson and will help my swing . Will work on this very soon. Thanks alex
Great tips Alex. It really feels good to me swinging the club in the house.
Definitely will try this out next time on the range!
I will do this drill regularly. When trying to get more and more compression I can start ruining the fundamentals, and this is such a great drill to stop me doing silly things such as overdoing for example keeping the club face pointing at the ball during the takeaway 🙏 🙏
Another great video and very well explained. Keep them coming I find them very addictive
Glad you like them!
An excellent four stage video Alex on staying connected in the golf swing! I have always liked the idea of a triangular (shoulders, arms, club) set up and this is what I use. It definitely helps one to stay connected in the very beginning of a one piece takeaway. Thinking of the back of the left arm and the upward fold of the right arm moving the club in the takeaway is one that I will remember. The setting of the wrists (flat left wrist, bent back right wrist) is what I do. All Good Alex! I think I'm going to archive this video for future viewing!!!
Love this!! keep up the great work
Great lesson thank you. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Love the sudden check idea alex great video
Awesome Alex. Great way to check yourself
Thank you Alex for another very beneficial video. I noticed someone asked about hitting different lyes. That would be a good idea for us duffers!
Alex, first off, I love your videos. I am naturally right handed. If I use one arm, it’s all my right. I eat, write, wipe right handed . As soon as I put two hands on something, I’m left handed. I golf, hit a baseball and play hockey left handed. I’m not sure which hand power comes from as I hit a golf ball as far or farther than most of the people I golf with who are right hand dominant. I do believe Phil Mickelson has the same right/left issue as me and he’s did ok. I also think it may help me as far as eye dominance setting up left handed but being right eye dominant. I guess what I’m getting at is the right hand really the power source in a right handed swing as my left hand is way weaker than my right if I was to throw a punch, yet I can hit a golf ball or baseball as far as someone who hits right handed and is right handed, as I don’t feel my weaker left hand causes me any distance issues. Just a thought. Maybe the power comes from other areas of the swing.
As an over 70 golfer with reduced neck mobility I have enabled better shoulder turn by allowing my head to turn toward my trail side. A lot of younger golfers do. Watch where the bill of their caps points in transition. I don’t need to think about what my arms are doing.
Dynamite tip! Thanks!
trying to make a comment every now and then to support channel ..though tellie is current most often used to watch..
Appreciate it thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼
one of my local courses has a forced carry on the first tee. I've topped it onto the swamp a couple times, so the last two times I played, I compensated by knocking it past the next tee box.
Fantastic Drills Alex 👏💪. Had a quick question about width of the stance . I'm almost 60 is it a big problem if your stance has less width than what most golf instructions recommend? Hope you have some advice on this subject . Love your instruction videos great help I'm sure to many golfers round the world 👍👍🫶
Hi Graham this is a great question. To keep you going I would think about matching your ankles are armpits but have your feet slightly flared
Thank you for the support 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Absolutely trying this as it’s my most inconsistent area 😊
You got this! Let me know how you get
On’n
@@AlexElliottGolfI certainly will my friend, range tomorrow after work .
@@AlexElliottGolf nett 31 for nine holes today, thank you 🙏
The check at the end is superb. Do you recommend we do this quick check during the round? I find the swing changes from holes 1-6 compared to holes 12-18 (in between I sometimes struggle with shots all over) 1-6 I hit a certain way and work with it. 7 - 11 the shot go awry and then 12-18 I"m zoned in and things get better....
Excellent video as always. Question I was approaching a hole but was facing down a bank facing the hole, how would you approach that shot, basically hitting down a hill but still chipping it to the green. Thanks.
Hi Alex, and thank you for the great channel. I've got a serious problem with my swing. As a left handed player I tend to pull most of my iron shots, (especially irons 6 through 9) . I figured out it is my left (trailing) shoulder which keeps pushing towards the ball in the beginning of the downswing. When trying to fix it (and leave it more behind or moving it downwards), it tends to cause me to loose the contact with ball, leading to fat shots or some other form of mishitting the clubface. Any ideas about this for maybe a future video? Keep up the gooo work!!!
What I do is grip the club very lightly with the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. This keeps the right hand from over controlling the club. It also keeps the right shoulder loose because the shoulder muscles control the thumb and forefinger. If these are tight your right shoulder muscles will also be tight restricting your backswing. The other fingers are controlled more with your forearm muscles.
Your tips really help, but theres so many Alex...... scrambles my brain sometimes 😀
I have battled being "over the top" and an early extension. I have watched countless videos and I'm better now than in the past but it is still a problem. Still searching for that "special" tip that will resonate and make the difference.
Really like that last step with the check. Going to try that for sure. I'm right handed golfer that is left handed, so I struggle with the right elbow position and having that hand flat like I'm holding a pizza pan.
I’m the same pal a lefty playing righty, and if I hit the ball with any kind of speed it slices. But to play left handed just feels wrong
@@vegasburger My major miss is a duck hook. I get handsy and roll the wrists closing the face. Anyway, along with Alex have you watched Danny Maude teach swing. Danny keeps it simple too.
My issue with the front arm keeping straight is I have some kind of rotator injury so it's slightly limited in terms of a golf swing.
Thanks for the video. Question, where do you aim to hit the ball? Do you aim to hit the back of the ball? Top?, Bottom? I know dumb question.
Thanks
Alan
Not a dumb question at all! I am to hit right at the back of the golf ball
I hope it helps
Just mega as always. Thanks for all your tips. Would if you haven't already to a putting video? If you have already share the link please
Hi - yes see this video i have done previously ruclips.net/video/BulyrlGATPI/видео.htmlsi=ZEd4E_eDBboVNEaT
@AlexElliottGolf just watched it blue sky's and a amazing video thanks
The dark volley left handed 52-56-60 degree loft 🤞🏼
Recently I found my right foot [ as a right handed person ] wasn't straight at address. I had fallen into the habit of flaring it way to much. I was struggling to get distance and was pulling many shots. The way I was flaring it was affecting my wind up dramatically. Just to let others know how important that little piece of fundamental is.
I've watched 10000000 + swing videos...
Not one covers where we actually make contact with the ball..which part of the club makes contact with what part of the ball...discuss please..
Hi Alex, would this be the same technique for the woods as well as the irons? Thanks for the videos 😊👍
Yeah you can try with those!
Yes
one to try out asap
Let me know how you get on 🔥
Does the palm of the right hand face directly in front of you or slightly turned down at parallel just before contact? TY!
directly in front of you
Brilliant and than goodness the green glove has gone!
Hahah a lot of people didn’t like the green glove 🤣🤣
Thankiuu !
What is your best advice on people who have high anxiety and first T jitters.. How do you calm your mind to just relax and let it happen
if you don't warm up, try getting a small bucket of balls, and warming up before the round. I start with my wedge and chip a couple, then work up through the clubs to my driver, and back down to the wedge, finishing with the club I plan to hit off the first tee with.
@@kenbrown2808 My anxiety comes from playing with strangers and knowing that every shot counts now you're not on the range anymore
@@jamesbaine580Same here - ruins my game. A beer helps 🍺
@@jamesbaine580 for me, the preround warm up helps with that, because I know I am swinging the way I want. the rest is just a matter of reminding myself, I am playing for myself, no matter what.
A routine and set warm up - this will help and get you into the rhythms of things
I'm used to traditional lofts but irons nowadays r alot stronger 💪 😊
Nice!
i scoop the ball and add dynamic loft my attack angel is good and 5 in front of ball but still scoop please help
Thanks, i am guilty of pulling with the right arm
Any chance that I can send you vids of my swing to get some tips from you to improve...?
Haha I would love to but everyone asks the same and i would be a very busy man!
I get that! Would have been nice though...never had a lesson but hitting the ball not bad for a 54 year old with a 107swing speed and with a 9.2 HC Index. Thanx anyway 🙃@@AlexElliottGolf
My backswing is getting shorter and then I try to swing harder.
I do the same thing but I fear that my back will not last with that much sheer in the turn.. I'm 63 and don't know how many more years I've really got in me to swing a club
@@jamesbaine580 yeah I play with a couple 87 year old men and I don't know how they do it.
150 yd 8 irons are easier now they are same loft as old 7 irons.
This is a great point but this is with the same
Irons 🙌🏼👌🏼
Your quick fix tips are merely clickbait
Really? 😂
