    Thanks Alex. This has been my main focus this summer. I also follow Eric Cogorno on RUclips and he also stresses this move. Its great when i see two teaching pros teaching similar swing keys as it confirms for me that I’m on the right track and makes me confident in bringing this to the course. I have struggled with forward shaft lean and ball compression, but this move combined with proper wrist hinging (which you talked about in a recent video and which Eric stresses as well) has got me back to a 3.7 index this summer. Thanks so much!

    Thanks Alex, and one of your best videos. Many people never explain and demonstrate the complete motion and folks give up on this very important move. Now I better understand why Pete Cowen calls this "spinning your arm down".

    NOTE: I have been saying - - - - - : "set your trail elbow somewhere between your trail hip and navel as the downswing starts." - - - - for over 5 years.
    Glad to hear the word spread, thanks.

    Excellent video Alex on showing the importance of the right arm and elbow is in making a quality golf shot. By putting the right arm in in the right position in the downswing, it also puts the body in its proper tilt. Well Done Alex! Keep up the good work!

    This looks like Hogans pre 1950 swing when he was trying to stop hooking. Trouble with it is that the face is wide open coming in to the ball which requires huge forearm rotation and when Hogan did this He sometimes hit huge hooks since he overcooked hand action and closed the face, the thing He was trying to prevent. He changed that part of his swing and while his right arm and elbow were close to His right side He didn't lead as much as He did pre 1950. Just My opinion Alex and certainly is better than throwing the club out and over coming down. Ray

  • @rackum44
    @rackum44 9 месяцев назад +1

    So @3:30 I played your swing in slow motion and man were you on perfect plane coming down? This is something I've been working on and what is your thought on the right arm? Straightening the entire way from the top continuing down through impact. Most of the time at club parallel in the down swing by hands are still too high to wear the pros. Hands are at mid thigh

    • @AlexElliottGolf

    This is the most difficult one move to practice..because then right handpath goes left, over left toes..But clubhead still comes into ball on neutral path.

  • @JacquesL-bq1kt
    @JacquesL-bq1kt 2 дня назад

    Thanks for the video.
    1) As already mentioned many balls go about 30 degrees to the right. Not sure if body rotation too slow / incomplete or whether should close the face sometime im up or down swing
    2) More critical is how to keep doing this correctly when going to full swing?!
    I manage the drill but lose it during full swing (with a ball).
    Any advice how to move from drill to full swing?

  • @markryanpollard
    @markryanpollard 9 месяцев назад

    Exactly right. HUGELY important move that unlocks everything for me. But must mention this needs to be combined with aggressively twisting the wrists to close the clubface. Some call it a "motorcycle move" with the hands/wrists etc (Watch viktor hovland, Dustin johnson, spieth, john rahm, morikowa etc.). otherwise this elbow move will massively open the clubface 👍. Another pitfall for me was lifting my left shoulder and arm as well while doing this. The right elbow abducts against the left arm while the left arm and left shoulder stay down

  • @joecontreras3175
    @joecontreras3175 4 месяца назад

    This is great, what about the releasing of the club? It feels like my elbow catapults the forearms, but I'm not sure if that's right.

  • @einstu
    @einstu Год назад

    Excellent video that answer a lot of my questions. Thanks. The "feel' of pulling your arms into your side is obviously not what you do, the "real". However, what is the real is there a gap between the elbow and the body, i.e. is this feel done further away from the body? I sometimes feel like my right leg is in the way of the downswing, if you follow me?

  • @garethhillard9923
    @garethhillard9923 Год назад

    Great move and drill. For me it leads to the club face being open at impact. Your club face looks quite open at P6 too. Any drills to square/close the club face you could pair with this drill?

    @mydogdidit 3 месяца назад

    This looks like outstanding instruction and something that I have not been able to solve for decades, even though shooting scratch and better! My only suggestion from a critique standpoint and to help your channel... your move illustrating casting is far too overboard, nobody swings like that. I suggest you tone down that illustration. It's ok to exaggerate a little bit but not that much, lol. The rest of your lesson looks excellent. I will now subscribe and head to the driving range!

  • @WALTERMITTIE
    @WALTERMITTIE 8 месяцев назад

    I struggled with this move until I realised that it was much easier when i produced enough downward presssure on the club handle in the lower half of the swing to counterbalance the weight of the club head otherwise it felt like it was pulling my right elbow from my rib cage. I wonder if anyone else has had this experience

  • @mustachemulligans9846
    @mustachemulligans9846 Год назад

    I have no issues getting the movement correct but have issues not letting the club go from there to square up, leading to me glancing with a open face or hosel.

  • @kentao4
    @kentao4 Год назад

    Alright this poses a question for me Alex. Which arm is the powerful arm in a swing? As in do you pull with your left arm or pull down with your right? This drill looks like your power comes from your right hand but for me, I pull with my left and right is more stability. Am I backwards? Wondering because I have left shoulder pain every once in a while as a result.

  • @tgchris2222
    @tgchris2222 Год назад

  • @Khaladas

  • @ericehrnsberger8298
    @ericehrnsberger8298 Год назад

    OK, so when you show the elbow movement, I noticed at first, your elbow is away from your body. However when you use the head cover, the elbow stays tight to the body. So am I understanding this right, that once we learn the feel, the elbow can start separating from the body for more power maybe? I'm confused on that part Alex. Could you please help me understand.

    • @AlexElliottGolf
      @AlexElliottGolf  Год назад

      Exactly Eric, its more about starting away from the body and keeping it close as you turn, to prevent that chicken wing.

    No one has that much shaft lean at regular speed.
    And Pete Cowan would laugh at your right arm angle and hand position in the down swing.
    Ar the hip level your swing needs to close that club face so much faster then with Pete Cowan's swing
