If there is a better lesson than this one on all of RUclips, I’d be surprised. I feel like this has everything needed to help every golfer. This helps swing plane, club to path, alignment, how the hands work, and much much more. The straight line from the box showing the swing arc is brilliant. The straight line being an arc is a counter intuitive thought for most, but when you see it demonstrated in this fashion as Stu shows, it should really help “click” for many people…swinging on this arc, around the body, equates to straight golf shots, Stu you’re the man.
Love the box drill! An added bonus to grooving a lower handle, it made me aware of how little I’m clearing my left hip (why I think I’ve been hanging back and not shifting my weight much). I can also can focus on keeping my pelvis more level, from another of your videos. I’m 71 and lights are going off! I knew the handle was raising but not why, and that bowed left wrist BS? Letting my wrist cup has freed up my backswing and helps me keeps my arms extended. Thanks, your coaching is inspiring!
Bless you my friend. Once you fire up the energy in the handle the body comes alive, you sound like it’s happening. More to come, enjoy and please keep me in the loop!
I've been in the golf industry for over 30 years and have never learned so much; invaluable info! as I have watching this channel. Thank You Stuart. Grateful Aussie.
Thought I knew a lot about the game...your videos have helped tremendously! It's a slow process to fix things in my swing but with your help and my Skytrak + I am fairly confident that more improvement is on the way along with a reduction in my 10 handicap. As a senior golfer, I only wish you were around when I was younger and developed bad habits! Ditched all the other RUclips instruction. Thanks, Stuart. Kudos from Ohio, USA
Hello from over here in Surrey my friend; really appreciate the feedback and super happy the game is on the up and up! Keep me in the loop, would love to hear how you progress. Best wishes Stu
I have spent years trying to understand why I hook, knowing I roll the wrists thru impact, I have watched thousands of videos and all I could learn is my path is in to out. You are a brilliant coach, the detail you provide is like know other. I can't believe how different and what rubbish most coaches teach, especially tuck your right elbow in, bow or turn your left wrist! When I first started watching you (broom drill) I thought you were crazy, how can this guy be so far off from the mainstream coaches with decades to experience? It's because no one explains why. You do an outstanding job. Hard to get at first, but defiantly works. You should release this video again with the title why you hook and fix your hook. You are the only coach I watch. THANK YOU !!! Oh yea, I fixed my grip first.
Bless you my friend, sincerely grateful for your most generous of feedback. So happy you’ve found your game, long may that continue and thank you so much for supporting my channel. Best wishes Stu
I am now only after decades of golf understanding through your videos how the golf swing works. Recording my swing recognising every fault, I have all of them, but actually everything I’ve done before only made them worse but felt they should work. Now being brave from the grip to trying everything else despite feeling like I’m going to shank it I’m seeing soooo much improvement, thank you..
Bless you Craig; so very happy you took the plunge and have got some pay back. Long may that continues my friend and if I can help, please let me know. Happy golfing 😊
After watching your video again trying to keep an open mind, I believe I understand what you were trying to get across. I was taught handle stands up after contact and swings left..not trying to be negative just frustrated with the complexity of trackman. For me it better to keep things simple. I am going to watch your broom videos later today .i have a feeling feeling what you are saying can help me understand
Hey Charles - Trackman has sadly not been applied to the masses and seems to be a very under utilised bit of tech; my desire is to educate people of what’s important. The handle and head relationship is crucial, not just the head if we are to have long lasting performance rather than fleeting moments of magic. The broom series will open up a whole new world to you. Please let me know how you get on! Best wishes Stu
Love how you explain club path and swing plane, and how they go hand-in-hand. It was quite technical but understand why you had to do it this way. Always amazes me how important it is to use the golf handle (your hands) correctly to make the clubhead move the way you want. Seems like most amatuers should be focusing on moving the handle correctly to get the clubhead where it needs to go and not focusing on the clubhead. Cheers.
Club path and swing plane explained fully. Very valuable for a complete understanding of the forces working on the handle and club head. The visual of the club head working back up and staying outside of the handle on the thru swing with the more horizontal swing plane is an element of the golf swing that I have not seen explained before. Thanks for more great content.
I’m not sure you can see how many times I watch/rewatch your videos, especially the grip lessons, but I appreciate the details. For the FIRST time on the golf course, I was able to construct a shot in my mind, and execute it properly. My understanding of the golf swing has grown exponentially and my game is starting to catch up. Thank you for the educational approach - quick fix is for rubbish dealers….
Do you just cater these things to me or what? Pretty sure you described me to a tee. Discovered two things in the monitor this morning. I over rotate and the art of side bend. Path came under control, start line improved, no more straight left and all without weakening the grip. Tried it and the purchase just wasn’t secure. Stellar video my friend! Learning more and more with every video. Many, many thanks my friend! My best, NWH
Very refreshing instruction I only found this channel after one of your video popped up about right shoulder high! Very interesting understanding of trackman path to face details.
Brilliant explanation with simple tools , a box and a broom …. Awesome ! I am trying to swing again after a particularly difficult shoulder surgery , this has been a helpful video . I have had to modify my old ways and this has helped clarify the why I did some stuff. Thank you !
Hi Stu. This video is another masterpiece, and is the perfect follow on from the wonderful “Left Shoulder” video. “Shock Horror…..😱. Get yourself up off the floor, back up. Get your tea your in your mouth, just to recuperate”😂. W
As someone who over rotates the clubface and gets a lot of toe strikes, most probably from standing the handle up, this make absolute sense. In an effort to get more in to out (I've been measured at less than 1 degree in or out) and judging by what I've just watched, I've ended up doing the opposite of what I should be doing. Would love to get someone like you take a look at my swing and put me out of my misery 🙂
Hey Doug - thanks for the feedback my friend. You can always find me on the golf coaching app Skillest for an online session. Otherwise, hope you enjoy my content and you find help soon. Best wishes Stu
Stu - Super-valuable content! You are resurrecting my swing and knowledge of the golf movement. Can’t wait to connect with you in person 2024! #CheersBrothaa!! 👏🏾👏🏾🥂💪🏾
I have fought flipping forever- the box drill put it in perspective- very well done - what are some drills for keeping hands low through impact - thanks
Hey Greg - really super pleased this made sense my friend, let me know how your golf progresses or if you have any further questions. Best wishes Stu 😊
Hi Stu, thanks for the detail explanation. A question if I may, does the “vertical” or “ up and down pitch” applying pressure on the shaft, not contradict the “outward” movement from the top demonstrated in your other videos. I appreciate that the actual swing incorporates a blend of rotation and elevation , but to my eye, in a full swing, the club appears to be moving down ( and around) rather than out or am I missing something..? Isolating the shoulder/arm movement from the turn back to target, yes, I sense an outward “feel” , if that makes sense ..? Cheers.
I binned all other ideas from utube and thought let me try to execute your method. Tried that Box feeling which was ok, but by pushing my hands down and especially once exiting the impact area, I saw 45-90 yard hooks in my game today. I’m sure there’s something I’m missing. Do we need to push the hands down thus elevating the club head ?
Thank you, learnt lots. Btw when you mentioned Hogan, he had his hands set up as if shooting a pistol right into the ground - a lot of ulnar or high hands. Was he setting his "end range" as Bryson says. Since Hogan actually returns to his shaft plane on impact. Aiding consistency. On the other hand Mac Ogrady for a period has really low hands at setup. Think he returned slightly higher through impact but certainly not significantly.
To start unpicking what Hogan did is a dark journey in my honest opinion. I share my thoughts, and hopefully justify what I am trying to encourage golfers to try. Best wishes Stu 😊
@@GoodGolfCoaching Absolutely fixated on your confident advice. Watched nearly every video in just over a fortnight. I’m a tinkerer with my swing but I now feel locked in . Very very good explanations back up your methodology. I previously mentioned the Prosendr training aid and you said you would look into . I’m curious to hear your comments?
Hey Stuey - the pro sender certainly offers up some feels and there are plenty of guys using it. As you know, it’s not one size fits all so it could be useful to you, but without seeing your swing I could say it would hit the spot for you. Hope that helps in some way. Best wishes Stu. 😊
I don't know why golf instructors all tell you to swing the club inside to out when what you are really doing is using the handle to swing the head of the club from inside to out not the entire club. I literally spent 3 years trying to bow my wrists enough so I can hold the club off and swing outside but I always had a bit of an under release which made the ball go really high and cost me a lot of distance and consistency.
Wow the box really changes my perspective quite a bit. Reminds me of this old Manuel de la Torre video where he tries to settle the non-argument in putting where some people emphasise an arc versus others saying 'straight back-straight through'. He shows that both are correct in their own way by using a rail as a visual, which he moves the putter back and forth along -much like your box. Though I don't waste energy on such debates, the visual did unveil something to me I couldn't wrap my head around previously. Your box did the same in this video. Many thanks for elaborating on concepts rather than giving bite-size tips. If you or anyone else is interested in what I am talking about, it's at about 16:50 in this old video: ruclips.net/video/9O2Ttjn8Cyc/видео.html I don't doubt that you probably know it.
Dear Sir Without writing too much....i can only say ....i am your big fan and appreciate your teachings and techniques....unfortunately i started watching your video's very late...but now i have un subscribed all other channels.....much love from India 🇮🇳

The box drill really helped pull it together. Mixed with the broom drill, it's all coming together.
Loving the videos!

Any tyou can steer away from weakening anything, is a good day. Well done buddy, I have eyes everywhere so I knew what you needed 😎
This presentation brought a lot of clarity about how the hands and clubbed work.
Music to my ears Mr Miller, thank you. Best wishes Stu 😊
Always great content Stewart! The reason I subscribe is BECAUSE of your thoroughness and detail.
Such lovely feedback and I wont be changing my content length, dont you worry my friend. 😊
Stuart you are the thinking man’s golf coach 👍🏻
Haha thanks Mark 🤓

Thanks Stephen - hope you stick around and check out some other videos my friend. Any questions, just ask, always happy to help. Best wishes Stu 😊
Your video was eye opening in regards to swing plane and why I early extend. Thanks.
Pleasure Jerry, let me know how the changes go for you. Best wishes Stu 😊
This is your best video. Really interesting and informative. Thanks.
Thank you Andrew, much appreciated Sir. Best wishes Stu

Thanks so much Earl

Such a great message, thank you.. Only one agenda is to empower golfers, sounds like youre on the way. Look forward to connecting, best wishes Stu 😊
Stuart is about to release the hounds. Let's Goooo!
You’ll need your glasses and a cup of tea for this one 😂
🤯 That’s good coaching.
I think so too Brad 😂😊
Brilliant! 🙌🏼
Thanks Nick
..........now that was 20 minutes of pure gold.......thanks Stu ⛳🍺

Great video Stuart! It seems to me that this would work best with flatter lie angles. Do you agree?
Hi Ron, not really. Static and dynamic lie angles are usually very different. Best wishes Stu 😊
How does the left foot work, to avoid injury to the ankle ligament ?
You’ll have to be a little more insightful to what you’re getting at? Injury to ankle alignment?
Stu, the 2 biggest things in your golf swing come down to 2 things, your club face to swing path,bottom line. Does that sound about wright?
You nailed it my friend. Best wishes Stu 😊
Thanks
Thanks Stuart - really appreciate the super thanks !! Glad you enjoyed the video. Best wishes Stu 😊

how does this effect dynamic lie angle?
A lot ! 😊
care to expand on that?@@GoodGolfCoaching
The lower the handle the bigger the change in lie angle. Best wishes Stu
Thx! Lower the handle the flatter the lie angle. Hogan played with clubs that were 6 degrees flat. @@GoodGolfCoaching

Sorry meant left shoulder high
Yep got it 😂😌
Competition
Good stuff but too long as usual.
No need to watch for so long 😂
SAY WHAT ?
You’ll have to explain?
Club handle rises as lead leg straightens then turn corner. The point you went on about serves no purpose. Pure garbage
Thanks Charles, appreciate your negativity and wish you well. 😊
Who cares what track man says !
Quite a few people do 😂
