John here ! My session this week with Danny was brilliant - his generosity in giving us this quality of teaching every week is peerless. Amid all the noise about growing the game, his contribution is uttterly authentic and constant. He might well be the hardest working man in the wonderful world of golf ! Thanks Danny and team.
This has to be one of the greatest golf instructional videos I have ever seen. I have never even once thought about this principle and can’t wait to practice this on the range then play a round to see this difference. Super excited. This is why people like you are hired to fix our crappy swings..this is no kind of common knowledge that I have ever heard. Thanks Danny!!
Been a subscriber now for several years Danny and this [might] be the best yet. No idea how you do a WEEKLY instruction and still keep them fresh and enjoyable. Thank you.
The visual instruction for me is priceless! This shows the correct direction of the swing with the arms and club. I now will be more confident to hit draws. This instruction will help me to trust the feeling of hitting the ball to the right on the downswing which for many golfers just doesn’t feel right!
Danny, this is without doubt one if not the best video you've posted. It all makes perfect sense and it's clear you've put so much work into producing and creating it, thanks so much 👍
44 and started playing golf with my brothers and cousin this year and saw a video earlier this year and been following you since. You’re helped me tremendously hit better and long ways to go but most importantly have fun. Have 2 small kids and this is hopefully a sport I can play with them years to come. Keep up the great work and thank you !
@kuya3280 fun is what it's all about. My 19 yr old grandson is getting in to it. Haven't played a lot....he's busy with college, but there are some fun golf moments to look forward to. I share all of Sir Danny's lessons with him.
I have dedicated myself to only watching Danny's videos for instructions and drills. Danny is the most consistent in what he teaches, and he stays true to those concepts in each video. This is just another great example of how you can set up alignment sticks to help you visualize your swing and practice with intent. Great job Danny.
Ok, guys. This might just be the most informative instructional video ever created by Danny, or anyone, period. I absolutely love how Danny is able to break the swing down for us and come up with new visual aids and drills for us to practice with. It simply blows my mind. There’s always a light bulb moment for me in every one of his videos. Brilliant! I can’t wait to try this out. I always leave the videos inspired to get to work and this will certainly help me hit it more consistently. Cheers Danny and Happy Holidays to you and your family from across the pond!
Danny, I've just come back to the game in the last few months after a 10-12 year hiatus.. Kids are a bit older now so I can have more time. I've watched a lot of your videos to get some of the fundamentals back and it's really helped a lot. You explain things very well and they are relatively easy to follow. thanks for your efforts!
Danny this is the best, most direct and informative lesson you’ve produced. Simple and straightforward in its delivery. That private lesson I mentioned to you recently with the posh old geezer, who stated ‘30 minutes with Danny and you’re sorted’ still remains the ultimate ⛳lesson.
This is the best illustration of the golf swing I've seen. With a clear explanation of how the hands and club should move, the center of your swing and ball flight. Thanks, I can't wait to try it!
Thanks Danny the work station makes so much sense, point 3 is my problem but explained in that way it makes it easier to understand. Please keep this great content going.
Great video this week, Danny. Most teacher/instructors emphasize coming down from the inside but seldom focus on the inside hand/club path after impact. Great visualisation tools/aids.
IMO, one of the best YT golf content creators, hands down. Danny, If you're ever going to be in the USA, please let everyone know ahead of time. Id love to play a round of golf with you if you will be nearby. My treat.
Nice use of the Stack And Tilt Grid. Wish we would've seen some credit to Andy and Mike on it. Its a system that works so glad to see it making it way in to teaching world.
Great video Danny, I cannot wait to go hit balls. Tried the lesson with Pete Cowen and you and it was great, but this brings it home for me. Thanks Danny
Brilliant of course. So well explained and a continuation of the process. Understanding the difference between the middle of your body and the actual low point of the swing is so important. And the constant for the head position. Well done again. Not easy keep the standards so high and content relevant
Another great video Danny, I tend to be a bit loopy at the top of the swing and I think this is the first video on RUclips that has ever mentioned the hand path. What an original thought to take to the range to test out. Many thanks.
Good evening Danny, @ least over here in Indiana. You must have somewhere to go today because I usually don't get your video until three in the morning my time & I'm not complaining by any means because now I'll be able to get a lot of sleep. I'm not just saying this to be a brown noser but you are by far the best instructor on the innerweb. Thanks for all you do for us because for me you have taken a golf hitter in the hundreds to a sometimes good golfer who scores into the mid eighty's constantly. We have done this in the last 3 years which might not seem too big a deal but I only have 1 left hand & a thumb and index finger on my right-handed swing. So thanks again for all your help and have a safe and happy Thanksgiving. Good Morning now Danny as it's hard to type with 1 hand also !!!
Thankyou Danny I started golfing in the spring. Never played before. Had somme lessons with our pro. And I have been watching a lot Of tour videos. And your tips in this video realy gave me a way to setup a training station so I could see my swing doing the same over and over.
Danny you are an amazing teacher my friend. Always watch your RUclips videos. Eric Cogorno is right there also. Young guys like you both are fantastic and thanks so much. Making the game better for all of us. Neal
This bolsters your video of two weeks ago: "The Greatest Golf Drill I've Ever Seen...." This changed my game for the better and it was easy to immediately implement. Thanks for these 2 videos. These are 2 of the best videos I've ever seen. Thanks.
You are the go to guy for golf tips. You cover everything with simplicity for us amateurs to grasp with ease. It all makes a lot of sense. If it wasn’t for Storm Bert I would have been trying it on the course. 😩☔️☔️🌊
Hi there fellow countryman! I’m living in Ireland these days but I’m from the good old Hutt Valley. Was a member at Manor Park and Judgeford back then. Where are you based?
I like waking up to it on Saturday morning. I'm in south east Louisiana. Usually play on Saturday afternoons or Sunday mornings. I can have the lessons fresh in mind. Definitely helps.
Thanks so much for the video. Love the explanation on the hand path as for me has always been an issue. My question is, should the divot be facing right of the target as the club path moves from inside and a bit to the outside?
@@DanielMaudeWhat do you think of Stack and Tilt? I have to admit that I hit the ball a lot further and more consistently with Stack and Tilt, but it does hurt my back a little. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
As always I appreciate the video Danny! You're videos have been an integral part of straightening my slice and helping me go from a low 90s player to a high 70s this year.
Big thank you from France danny! I have ben playing since 3 years and following you since a couple of months and I spent the last few weeks seeing all your videos. You make everything so simple and so clear and I already see the difference in my game. You truly are the best teacher out there ! Great video again thank you!!! Sébastien
Hello Mr.Maude,Another excellent video and it works great l’ve been practicing in my home and it’s awesome going to try it on the golf ⛳️ course Sunday!! Thank You again for a wonderful and amazing video,You are the greatest Sir!!!! Be Safe!!
Really interesting tip about closing the club face at address slightly. I just saved a video from The Golf Sensei where his tip was the close the club slightly on the down swing but this seems far more practical and predictable. Thanks!
Thank you for another brilliant video Danny, always wondered why a small draw was the way to go! Now I know, so beautifully and simply demonstrated. Just have to put into practice ??
I went out to the driving range the other day and tried what you posted on your video. I was amazed and happy the it worked. Thanks Danny for all your videos they have help me a lot!!!!!😁😁😁
Danny, appreciate it. I'm just getting into the sport, haven't even played a round yet, just been working the swing on the range. But I've been told that my form is great already. So thank you for helping me focus on good habits right from the gate
As usual, Danny’s ‘visual cues’ approach to golf training is something which is easy to visualise and therefore remember. My game has improved immeasurably in the past few months, thanks to Danny’s videos. I have recently been scoring 6 or 7 strokes better than my handicap. Looks like I’m going to get cut again. Thanks Danny! 😄👍⛳️☘️
Thanks again for a great video. Could you please share some approx measurements for placing the grid? How ”deep” are the arcs? How much space should there be between club path and hand path?
Thanks, Danny. Absolutely brilliant lesson about the fundamentals. The lessons are always so good ....but they seem to get better and better - if that's possible.
Brilliant lesson Danny super helpful! Your other video recently on right elbow pit facing out at address has given me so much better consistency, Just wondering where would one purchase that grid? Thanks John
Danny you've made some amazingly simple but great video instruction presentations! Can you make a video focusing on hybrid irons please? Also, do you have an opinion on chippers such as the Dune 56?
Golf tuition at its best, alway told to swing out to the right, you end up to the to the right of target or coming over the top and dragging it left, occasionally on target, Danny's brilliant advice ,slight closure of clubface to target at address, simplicity in its self cheers Danny
As always, thank you very much for the excellent video and instruction. We don’t generally hear in classic golf swing instruction to close the clubface a little bit at set up. I BELIEVE we were left to assume somehow that the clubface would close (magically) with a correct and awesome turn with the hips in a proper downswing . And, of course, I could never achieve this so I pushed and faded almost everything all the time. So what did I do? I aimed more left. 😂 Of course, I’ve seen many club players close their club faces in their set ups before in an EXTREME manner and always thought that looked really hokey and, quite frankly, ugly for a set up. And, oddly enough, many times it seemed to work for them. When I’ve closely watched Tour players, it doesn’t seem like you see them closing their clubfaces much but maybe it’s just difficult to catch on tv. But I’m excited to try this. Thanks so much.
Love to hear how you get on…remember you are only closing the club face to the path. At set up the club face is still aiming right of target for a draw shot it’s just closed to the path
YES!!!! The center of the swing, and the bottom of the arc is under the armpit. That is pure physics. I have never understood those golf "coaches" who say the bottom of the arc is the sternum. DM is the BEST golf coach on the internet. Period. Full stop.
Thank you Danny the GOAT! Would love to see these ideas applied to the hybrid. Seems like everyone I know, including me, fights the pull hook with these clubs. I don’t usually blame the club, but I hit every other club in the bag either straight or with a slight draw most of the time. Really struggling with aligning and/or getting the grip in a neutral position with the hybrid so the face doesn’t snap shut at impact.
Excellent video as always but can you explain how to hit a fade using the exact same set up and swing arc principle. The arc makes perfect sense to me for a slight draw but not for a fade. Thanks 🙏
Hello Danny To follow the hand path in the DS it is necessary to push firmly at the beginning of the DS the upper part of the lead arm against the thorax ; this will close the club head ?What do you think ?
The key for most players is to leave the upper centre (upper dot) intact while pushing your hips towards the target. The more you get the hips towards the target the more likely you are to path through club to the right
Danny, this grid makes me so happy. This is the basic concept of stack y’all and tilt which I feel is the only way to swing a club for us ammeters. It makes the swing so much easier.
Excellent content will put this into action on the range before going back out into the course once the snow has cleared, thank you for these welcome initiatives to help improve with ease. I find once you know the mechanics you can reset your thoughts for improvement.
Wow, Dan this is a great visual 💡 I myself have managed to figure out my own golf game and subsequently play some decent stuff, however, I have a friend who has asked for my help on his game and this drill/setup is unbelievable… A driver version of this would be perfect if you can. Separate to all this, keep up the great work pal you really are helping people with their games.
Hi Danny, realising the center of the swing is in my left shoulder has been a game changer for me and I also imagine the target line is in front of my left foot rather than through the ball. Would you say the hands and arms after striking the ball are a mirror image of the back swing please? Best Steve ❤👍🏻
I would say very similar although there is going to be a lot of force place on the from the speed the club comes through. So there will be a difference purely caused by the difference in the speed of both
Hey Danny, I’ve been taking golf seriously for the past few months now. Ball striking is my biggest flaw right now and I think my backswing has something to do with it. During my backswing, my head dips down towards the ball causing me to come a bit more over the top; do you have any tips or drills I could do to fix this?
It's got to be the way you explain the concepts that give me the "AHA" moment in grasping the technique. I've actually seen the same thing, with the floor diagram shown in the "Stack and Tilt" golf swing videos, but it wasn't until I saw you explain the swing arc, that the light bulb moment occurred. Now, I can't wait to hit the range and try it! Thanks, Danny! 👍🏽😄
Hi Danny. Thanks for this video. How do you hit a fade with this setup? I tried opening the face a bit with disastrous results. The strike is also weak compared to when the club face is turned in.
Great question, you take the whole structure on the ground aim it left slightly and open the club face slightly. In effect you are creating a pull fade
Hi Danny, I've been aiming for the ball to go straight with neither draws or slices. I've managed to get quite consistent at that for now... Should i instead aim for a draw like you demonstrated?
Not necessarily, you just need to understand what and how shot shapes are created. In this video I share the science. To hit a ball straight you could either shift this whole structure and aim it slightly left or simply have a swing that swings more left and this will cancel out the ball position
Love this bro. Been hitting a lot of balls just right of center and was just adjusting the club head closed a tiny bit to correct it. Glad you put this video together to confirm my shots to the right are actually 'correct' haha
Hi Danny great lesson as always about the mechanics! Could you do a lesson sometime about the mental side of the game? How to stay focussed, how not to hit it straight in the water right in front of you! Thanks for all your instruction.
Dan, a quick question, if the lowest point is below your left armpit and the ball position is 2 balls back and the path is therefore out to the right. If I setup with the face square to the target I have no need to adjust my grip for the draw as per your video. Is that correct. Thanks
Brilliant analysis of golf swing mechanics, I will be making adaptations to my fairways woods and possibly hybrids and see what happens. Would like to have the link for driver swing mechanics et al
Great video Danny - right up my street. Is there an acceptable range for Club path and Face to Path ie. would +5 and -5 work in the same way as your +2.6 and -2.3?
John here ! My session this week with Danny was brilliant - his generosity in giving us this quality of teaching every week is peerless. Amid all the noise about growing the game, his contribution is uttterly authentic and constant. He might well be the hardest working man in the wonderful world of golf ! Thanks Danny and team.

@@DanielMaude One day, I hope to play a round with you and your dad. My treat. On my bucket list.
What a great explanation for a drill on your swing.Keep up the good work Danny and thank you.
@Robert-1950 thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Thank you Danny the GOAT! Would love to see these ideas applied to the hybrid. Seems like everyone I know, including me, fights the pull hook with these clubs. I don’t usually blame the club, but I hit every other club in the bag either straight or with a slight draw most of the time. Really struggling with aligning and/or getting the grip in a neutral position with the hybrid so the face doesn’t snap shut at impact.
Thank you for the advice. The most useful lesson for me this year.
Thank you 😁
Excellent video as always but can you explain how to hit a fade using the exact same set up and swing arc principle. The arc makes perfect sense to me for a slight draw but not for a fade. Thanks 🙏
Absolutely Steven, simply shift the whole thing slightly left of target, sit the club slightly open to the path and hey presto you have a fade
Hello Danny
To follow the hand path in the DS it is necessary to push firmly at the beginning of the DS the upper part of the lead arm against the thorax ; this will close the club head ?What do you think ?
The key for most players is to leave the upper centre (upper dot) intact while pushing your hips towards the target. The more you get the hips towards the target the more likely you are to path through club to the right
Danny, this grid makes me so happy. This is the basic concept of stack y’all and tilt which I feel is the only way to swing a club for us ammeters. It makes the swing so much easier.
Grazie.
@mazono you’re welcome 🙏🏻
Simply the best so well explained !
Glad it was helpful David
Excellent content will put this into action on the range before going back out into the course once the snow has cleared, thank you for these welcome initiatives to help improve with ease. I find once you know the mechanics you can reset your thoughts for improvement.
Thank you Stephen 😁
thank you , it would be helpful to have geometric coordinates for the swing grid on your practise mat.
Great suggestion
Wow, Dan this is a great visual 💡 I myself have managed to figure out my own golf game and subsequently play some decent stuff, however, I have a friend who has asked for my help on his game and this drill/setup is unbelievable… A driver version of this would be perfect if you can. Separate to all this, keep up the great work pal you really are helping people with their games.
Very kind thank you RJ !
Excellent as usual Danny. I tell everyone about your tips Danny, thank you!
@johnantonykilkenny4383 thank you so much for your support. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Thank you Danny! What did you use to create those paths on the ground? Would love to replicate to practice at home. Cheers.
Hi Malcolm, I believe they are just grips that hold your tees
Love your videos Danny, thanks for sharing your great knowledge with us!
It’s my pleasure, really happy to help
Hi Danny, realising the center of the swing is in my left shoulder has been a game changer for me and I also imagine the target line is in front of my left foot rather than through the ball. Would you say the hands and arms after striking the ball are a mirror image of the back swing please? Best Steve ❤👍🏻
I would say very similar although there is going to be a lot of force place on the from the speed the club comes through.
So there will be a difference purely caused by the difference in the speed of both
Another great video thanks Danny. Could you do a video showing exercises that help the hip bump at the start of the downswing please. Thanks
Hey Danny, I’ve been taking golf seriously for the past few months now. Ball striking is my biggest flaw right now and I think my backswing has something to do with it. During my backswing, my head dips down towards the ball causing me to come a bit more over the top; do you have any tips or drills I could do to fix this?
Excellent video, Danny! For me this helps to explain why Jack Nicklaus and Ben Hogan always kept one ball position, just off their left heel.
Thank you Statovani!
It's got to be the way you explain the concepts that give me the "AHA" moment in grasping the technique. I've actually seen the same thing, with the floor diagram shown in the "Stack and Tilt" golf swing videos, but it wasn't until I saw you explain the swing arc, that the light bulb moment occurred.
Now, I can't wait to hit the range and try it!
Thanks, Danny! 👍🏽😄
Happy to help 😁
Hi Danny. Thanks for this video. How do you hit a fade with this setup? I tried opening the face a bit with disastrous results. The strike is also weak compared to when the club face is turned in.
Great question, you take the whole structure on the ground aim it left slightly and open the club face slightly. In effect you are creating a pull fade
I've never seen this concept explained so perfectly, can't wait to get to the range to work on my draw.
You can do it!
Hi Danny, I've been aiming for the ball to go straight with neither draws or slices. I've managed to get quite consistent at that for now... Should i instead aim for a draw like you demonstrated?
Not necessarily, you just need to understand what and how shot shapes are created. In this video I share the science.
To hit a ball straight you could either shift this whole structure and aim it slightly left or simply have a swing that swings more left and this will cancel out the ball position
Love this bro. Been hitting a lot of balls just right of center and was just adjusting the club head closed a tiny bit to correct it. Glad you put this video together to confirm my shots to the right are actually 'correct' haha
Happy to help Brew 👍
What a superb video and so well explained. New to this channel and following this video I have subscribed!
Awesome, thank you, great to have you here Susan
Great video! Please do the same for Driver and Fairway Woods.
Absolutely Craig
Hi Danny great lesson as always about the mechanics! Could you do a lesson sometime about the mental side of the game? How to stay focussed, how not to hit it straight in the water right in front of you! Thanks for all your instruction.
Simply superb Danny. What a great visualization tool.
Thank you Ted!
Dan, a quick question, if the lowest point is below your left armpit and the ball position is 2 balls back and the path is therefore out to the right. If I setup with the face square to the target I have no need to adjust my grip for the draw as per your video. Is that correct. Thanks
@@geoffparry4203 you will need to set up with the face slightly open to your target but closed to the club path
Great video Danny once the weathers better any chance of a get out of rough video
Absolutely
Super visuals with the animation of the grid as you move!
Thank you Chris!
Brilliant analysis of golf swing mechanics, I will be making adaptations to my fairways woods and possibly hybrids and see what happens.
Would like to have the link for driver swing mechanics et al
May be this is the only golflesson I need and I was looking for it for many years. Thank you so much and greetings from Austria.(no Kangaroos)
@HaraldHarryAlbeseder you are most welcome. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Stack and Tilt, very good information.
🤜🏻🤛🏼
The other commenters have said it better than I excellent presenter and lovely explanations The Best of the Season to all...from Canada
Glad you enjoyed it George
As usual brilliant video Danny!! You mentioned a driver video but I can’t find it?
Coming soon Darren
Great video Danny - right up my street. Is there an acceptable range for Club path and Face to Path ie. would +5 and -5 work in the same way as your +2.6 and -2.3?
Does closing the face a little at set up negate the need to bow your wrist in downswing to square the club?
Thanks for all of your great videos!
