Of all the dozens of coaches I’ve watched on RUclips,Simon BY FAR talks the most sense AND explains in layman’s terms. When I get to carus green I will definitely be pre booking a 2 hour lesson with him. Such a nice guy.
An amazing golf swing lesson by Simon. His teaching that a focused mind and repetition of the golf swing are essentials to having a consistent golf game is right on target. Liam, I am so appreciative that you are providing the Golf Mates with lessons from Simon who is a top-notch teacher and obviously a quality and impressive human being.
I have watched a ton of your video's and I have always noticed that when you are actually playing, you don't swing like you do during a lesson. I have gotten my swing to be better, but like you, I fall back to old faults over time. This one lesson has really helped me... March on...
Love when Simon does not say, "Liam, ya plum-pot..." and instead tells him, "I know patience is your strong point." LOL Thanks coach for bringing us back to basics.
Missed this one when it came out - great advice re the focus points especially dropping underneath, club face square and making sure the club handle pointing right. Old habits always sneak back when we stop concentrating and revert to just thinking about hitting a great shot , or worse think about a dozen things to try and gain more distance .... but Simon's lesson is the simple basic things we should focus on.
Liam, a bit of advice from a sports psychology student! Look up active listening.. let the man talk and listen to the advice he’s giving you. Your head is away with the fairies whilst Simon is trying to explain things. It seems you’re more focussed on the quality of the video than your own game and it’s something I’ve noticed from other videos, lack of attention and focus over the ball, still having conversations in your pre-shot routine. You’ve got the ability you know that, just get your pre shot routine in order, a bit of positive self-talk ‘nice and smooth’, ‘commit to the shot’. Stand over the ball, focus, go through your routine and hit!
I reckon that’s because he 100% has ADHD. It is impossible first him to concentrate. Both my father and brother are exactly the same. I’ve seen them desperately try to concentrate, and it is literally impossible for them to focus. It’s really sad to see. Both of them failed every exam they have ever taken, and I would wager the same applies to Liam.
@@edwardsrobayou might be right. For what it’s worth I think Liam does an amazing job with the channel. You can tell he gives it his all. Well done Liam and the rest of the team!
Been like this all through the years I’ve watched this channel, gets a lesson and improves for a bit treads water then repeats the process. Been in this movie several times
@ yeah, couldn’t agree more. After I wrote it I realised it sounded like I was having a pop, but that definitely wasn’t the case. He’s done amazingly well in setting up and running one of the highest followed golf channels on RUclips. I’ve got nothing but admiration for him
Got to remember, this probably isn’t solely to help his game but to help all the Golf Mates that may have the same or similar problems. If he shut up and listened it wouldn’t feel that we were involved and we may switch off. Well done Liam keep up the good work. ⛳️⛳️🏌️♂️🏌️♂️
Thanks Simon. Most RUclips videos have new techniques. You teach , scold,and teach again the basics. hope I can do what you teach. Thanks Liam, this live lesson is great
Love Simon's teaching, simple and easy to see and understand. I worked on this last winter and my handicap went down a couple and I was hitting much more solid shots.
Years ago i spent months using an umbrella doing this exact drill, reversing the loop i had in my swing like Liam, it took 1000s of practice reps and hitting 1000s of balls before i could hit a consistent draw. And still do this drill from time to time to this day.
@garystride5200 I saw the drill using an umbrella in an old book, probably back in the 80s outside on way back, under and inside on way through, did smash a few umbrellas before I got used to the move when actually swinging and hitting
@@richyclubsport5155 great stuff tonights over expansion of a simple drill, I just switched off afraid and Liam bless just wanted hit balls have fun which he didn't have, padding out his best content which I adore with training vids ain't gonna catch on, Danny Maude destroys this,,, easily best online and there are so many others.
I love the advice simon gives makes it very clear to understand. The videos he has done has really transformed my swing and I don't swing over the top anymore either also my slices with the driver have almost gone entirely 👍🏻 Great video
Great video. Keep watching it repeatedly. I've got a slight fade and never draw the ball so I've been up the range the last 5 days and been going through the same routine and it definitely works so thanks to u both. When's the next progression drill coming out as i can't wait for that.
This is absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to get to the range with a few alignment sticks next week. Could you do the same again with Driver next please? ⛳
Great refresher for Liam and what a great instructor Simon is.Not relative to myself as have different swing flaws and my divots never point left but great info nonetheless.
Get Steve Barlow there for a series of lessons - screaming or kicking. We all know he won't want to but a business class seat on your next overseas long haul adventure should be persuasion enough - maybe LOL
When returning to the coach and having to repeat a drill, have the patience to take on board what the coach has said and don't be in a rush to short circuit the drill. This inevitably lead to an early return to the faulty swing remember patience is key. Well done Simon patience it's self.
Being a student of simon’s last year Liam, I’ve found that when I’m actually out playing I imagine the alignment stick set up is behind me , this has helped me , maybe give that a try when your playing ?👍
Really interesting as always Simon. One of the big problems I encounter is that lessons and practice in the UK is normally off mats rather than grass. It’s difficult to get the instant feedback from a mat? Love the simplicity of your explanations though.
I saw this loop trick video a few weeks ago, so it’s fresh in my mind. Also the basket video to help with coming over the top. Highly recommend. Can’t believe Liam forgot lol
Simon is such a good coach. We, amateurs, need to progress as we did in school: Kindergarten, elementary, junior high, high school, university and then graduate school. We can’t graduate or move forward until we know the current lessons and pass the tests. Cheers.
I vaguely remember the loop was shown in a previous lesson, but not in such depth as it was part of a longer overall lesson, and yes, I also forgot to use this bit in my practice..... I`m sure he mentioned its importance, but I must not have attached enough importance to that one little bit of info..(Due to my own impatience to just hit the ball...). Will try again. Great lesson, Simon.
I use a tee peg just in front and left of the ball to practice forcing me to hit across. But I like this lesson teaching better muscle memory . Good luck with the practice Liam .
Patience and practice = improvement! Ben Hogan said, "The answer is in the dirt". Tour pros hit bucket after bucket every day in practice! Thanks for another great video Liam and Simon! ⛳🏌♂️ Oh, by the way happy Christmas!
Good work , just not enough reps so that your neural pathways allow you to make the desired movement yet. I use ‘eyes closed’ and freeze frame in coaching in order that the player’s learning is enhanced and you can apply effective sensory feedback ! Keel it going ! Within the 4 stages of learning, it’s fluid , you’ll get there !
Liam, I am never going to take the opportunity of a cheap shot at you over the "never done this before". But Simon's deadpan reply is comedy gold, "Go back and watch your own channel". 🤣LMAO.
Some of the best lessons are those where simple actions in other scenarios apply to golf. One of the best things I learnt and subequently say to all new players is swing the club using your body like you skim a stone at the beach. You wouldn't stand still and use just your arms you load into the right leg and create lag
Simon is the perfect golf coach for Liam, because he understands that Liam has a habit of reverting to the same old. Ingraining the swing mechanics takes time, which Liam struggles to do. He knows he is impatient, but maybe, this time, he will stick with more practice, and get the swing that remains with him for longer. He has, by his own admission, played some of the best golf ever this year, and enjoyed every minute, until the wheels fell off AGAIN, something the GOLFMATES recognise, like the lifting of the hands, before takeaway, not good, but usually precede his game going Pete, Tong. Best of Luck with the Practice Liam, I am with you on this, I have been working at my game, after an end of season collapse. I too have booked in for a day with Simon & Adam, in 2025. I am not a golf lesson lover, had bad experiences in the past, when pro's destroyed my game, changing too much. Put me off lesson, for a long time, always good at fixing other peoples swings, but not my own. Last pro lesson, went in for a fix, came out with an unusual method of hitting the draw, but as a result, ended up with the dreaded ham -shanks, being much more of a problem, which I never normally suffer from. What did I do, back on the practice ground and sorted it myself as usual. Hopefully after seeing Simon I can have better tools to fix it proper. My golf swing knowledge comes from the mid/late 80's 90's, with video's from Faldo, Greg Norman, Ian Woosnam, Seve & Hall of fame England team golf coach, RIP, John Jacobs, who had the most simplistic way of teaching, plus other top tour pro's, how they each saw the swing working, all the basics were the same, but the knowledge has improved now, we know much more than we did, technology had opened so many eyes to how the swing works for real, rather than what people think they feel. Your lesson video's help, used some of the techniques already, to improve my game. Thanks to Simon, & Liam, honesty, with your golf coach, is always the best policy
Swing like Jim Furyk for training, I struggle with OTT swing for years. Always unconsciously falling back into the slight OTT struggle. Slight fade tells me I'm not where I want to be with the swing! Tried everything humanly possible with no long term fix. Once I told myself to "forget about distance" when I'm over the ball, my swing self corrected because I was no longer over swinging or trying to "kill the ball" and chopping from the top. So I guess I'm saying it was more of a mental thing for me and I'm now hitting it further and straighter/baby draw than I ever did. Go figure. It's a quirky game, lol
Liam, If you look at your own videos as I have and you slow them down. You do not usually come over the top. At leas not enough to make a real difference. But just before you take the club back you raise your hands to what is closer to the swing path but that leaves you toe down, ie with an open club face. That is part of the open face problem and Simon is not talking about that.
Liam you’re as impatient as pretty much as everyone that picks up a club. The good thing for most people that aren’t you is that we’re not producing some of the best RUclips content there is, and so we get the chance to hit the range or just go play a round and practice the swing process without too much consequence. Thanks for doing your best to entertain us, but take the time to make yourself feel comfortable with your game to 👌👍
Similar video Liam but not exactly the same 😉 You'd need months of doing those drills and even then it might not translate into your shot. For me, the mind is the biggest obstacle , i think you have to visualise the shot , see the target, and get your mind into how you shspe that shot into that target. Remember you've hit all the shots required. Just go into your gallery of great shots you've hit and repeat 👍
Liam bit of advice, make sure you go back and watch not only this lesson with Simon, but all of them. And when you do look at everything, not just the golf component. It's really clear that your mind is racing and it's racing to be better, impatiently so and it's the details that count and that takes time. That's why the pro's are so good, because they know the details count, they know they need to be patient with themselves. We are our worst critics, our worst students in a lot of cases. Oh and make sure you buy yourself a swing plate to practice with, don't be a tight arse otherwise you will be robbing yourself.
I'm with Liam, I believe I've watched them all and don't remember this loop trick. Somebody please post a link if you remember. I like it though and will be practicing because I've got the same tendencies as Liam.
A good lesson with kit none of us have and hardly simple, Liam simple version achieving same (no better) stand at address club head floating above ball, push out to the right then in a circular anti clockwise motion move left loop back towards the ball, this will take you naturally back to the left behind the ball loop round coming clockwise right then back to the ball, keep going, feel the flow, this will encourage an in to out swing will certainly kill over the top and you will feel your swing traveling in to out, you can do it with a spoon in your lounge😊no charge I thank you 😅😅tbh honest it's all over the tinternet it's called " figure 8 reverse drill" and you not doing it up in the air which what this lesson was😮try it tell me I'm wrong.
Not sure the title reflects the lesson. I know i can benefit from this as I'm getting shanks every now and again which gives me a lot of fear. What's the stick and how do I get one?
Liam I don't know why your not using your noodle and basket like you do with driver hitting draw after draw it works with irons aswell, make another vid using your irons good luck.
Liam, you're using the top half of your body to swing. Start to use your lower body more, and that will give you time to drop the club inside. It's basically a lazy top-half swing. Enjoy using your legs, ankles, and feet with rhythm. It will all drop back into place. Simple.
Practise make perfect, golf would be a really crap game or not as interesting, if we had to put no effort in to it, and just turn up on a Sunday morning and tee off. One of the things I had to get my head around was, yes I'm paying ££ for the lessons and only doing drills, but it's what the drills get you to that's important. some great progress mate. In winter I never take a score card out with me, I can tell if I'm hitting the ball well and the conditions can destroy your card as well, plugged lie's long grass, just simple put the practise in and transfer to the course.
Of all the dozens of coaches I’ve watched on RUclips,Simon BY FAR talks the most sense AND explains in layman’s terms.
When I get to carus green I will definitely be pre booking a 2 hour lesson with him. Such a nice guy.
He’s good 👍. And honest

Simon thank you favourite instructor period. He keeps it simple.
Thanks Simon. Most RUclips videos have new techniques. You teach , scold,and teach again the basics. hope I can do what you teach. Thanks Liam, this live lesson is great
Bherts but this lesson was brilliant
Love Simon's teaching, simple and easy to see and understand. I worked on this last winter and my handicap went down a couple and I was hitting much more solid shots.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the Golf Mates!
This absolutely deserves a like. I know what I need to work on moving forward. Thank you Simon
One of the best lessons i have ever seen on RUclips . BRILLIANT will be taking this to the driving range.
No matter how many lessons Liam takes, he does not change at all
That is exactly what I need.. I can now see the whys and what to do about it.. 2 thumbs up to Liam and pro coach Simon
When you look at a video like this it shows you just how easy golf really is thumbs up to simon for explaing it in a way that's easy to understand.
Years ago i spent months using an umbrella doing this exact drill, reversing the loop i had in my swing like Liam, it took 1000s of practice reps and hitting 1000s of balls before i could hit a consistent draw. And still do this drill from time to time to this day.
Reversing the loop spot on but did you do it up in the air in space or just as a swing feel trainer at address as a practice stroke
@garystride5200 I saw the drill using an umbrella in an old book, probably back in the 80s outside on way back, under and inside on way through, did smash a few umbrellas before I got used to the move when actually swinging and hitting

'Precession (sic) is the art to being great' Sums up Liam's swing in a nut shell😂
I love the advice simon gives makes it very clear to understand. The videos he has done has really transformed my swing and I don't swing over the top anymore either also my slices with the driver have almost gone entirely 👍🏻 Great video

Love this video as it’s what Simon did with me it re affirms my practice for me
A simple routine like this is a little gem.especially if you have a short memory on the golf course.
Nice one, Liam.Simon is a great coach. You’re lucky to have him. . Good luck with your golf next year fingers crossed your handicap tumbles
This is absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to get to the range with a few alignment sticks next week. Could you do the same again with Driver next please? ⛳
Boom
Great easy to follow coaching Simon. 👍🏻
Fantastic video from a fantastic teacher, there is something in this for everyone
Great refresher for Liam and what a great instructor Simon is.Not relative to myself as have different swing flaws and my divots never point left but great info nonetheless.

That’s never going to happen, too set in his ways

Can I hit one, who me impatient, another good lesson, thanks Simon
Being a student of simon’s last year Liam, I’ve found that when I’m actually out playing I imagine the alignment stick set up is behind me , this has helped me , maybe give that a try when your playing ?👍
Thats a brilliantly simple and well explained exercise 👍. I think i am going to take a look at simons online thing, it sounds like just what i need.
Don’t over think it , you’ve been playing well . Once you strike the ball from the inside you’ll be more consistent, good luck mate .
Really interesting as always Simon. One of the big problems I encounter is that lessons and practice in the UK is normally off mats rather than grass. It’s difficult to get the instant feedback from a mat?

Great lesson. Simon definitely knows his stuff. Just got get you slapped into shape now Liam. Listen to what the man says you plant pot 😂👍🏻

Taking this to the range! Have the same issues with my swing
Fabulous lesson 👌🏻
I use a tee peg just in front and left of the ball to practice forcing me to hit across. But I like this lesson teaching better muscle memory . Good luck with the practice Liam .
Liam another good lesson from Simon, keep practicing and enjoy
Very very interesting to break your swing down… something you could do in the garden …. 👍
Patience and practice = improvement! Ben Hogan said, "The answer is in the dirt". Tour pros hit bucket after bucket every day in practice! Thanks for another great video Liam and Simon!

Within the 4 stages of learning, it’s fluid , you’ll get there !
So funny 😂 On the range I use a ball basket to angle the stick …… any top tip on how to do this at home and practice the static positions?
Liam, I am never going to take the opportunity of a cheap shot at you over the "never done this before". But Simon's deadpan reply is comedy gold, "Go back and watch your own channel". 🤣LMAO.
It’s brilliant. 🤩
Its amazing when we think we have mastered the strick how quick we revert back to what we think is best excellent video
Best comment of the video
Where are you getting these t-shirts and jumpers? Very smart
Some of the best lessons are those where simple actions in other scenarios apply to golf.

I am not a golf lesson lover, had bad experiences in the past, when pro's destroyed my game, changing too much. Put me off lesson, for a long time, always good at fixing other peoples swings, but not my own.

How many lessons has Liam had.. goodness. He should be brilliant by now
re rooting the club love it!
Brilliant content Liam
Liam you numpty, you definitely did this in the last lessons!
Swing like Jim Furyk for training, I struggle with OTT swing for years. Always unconsciously falling back into the slight OTT struggle. Slight fade tells me I'm not where I want to be with the swing! Tried everything humanly possible with no long term fix. Once I told myself to "forget about distance" when I'm over the ball, my swing self corrected because I was no longer over swinging or trying to "kill the ball" and chopping from the top. So I guess I'm saying it was more of a mental thing for me and I'm now hitting it further and straighter/baby draw than I ever did. Go figure. It's a quirky game, lol
Liam, If you look at your own videos as I have and you slow them down. You do not usually come over the top. At leas not enough to make a real difference.

That is part of the open face problem and Simon is not talking about that.
Love it even though I could see eveñ at the end you wanted to smash a ball really interesting
Liam you’re as impatient as pretty much as everyone that picks up a club. The good thing for most people that aren’t you is that we’re not producing some of the best RUclips content there is, and so we get the chance to hit the range or just go play a round and practice the swing process without too much consequence.
Thanks for doing your best to entertain us, but take the time to make yourself feel comfortable with your game to 👌👍
What an interesting drill. Hopefully we'll see how to transition that to a 3/4 and full swing 😊
Simon is a genius, you make a great team
Liam is still lifting his hands prior to swinging !!!!
Great lesson. A few tips for me in that👍
Similar video Liam but not exactly the same 😉
You'd need months of doing those drills and even then it might not translate into your shot. For me, the mind is the biggest obstacle , i think you have to visualise the shot , see the target, and get your mind into how you shspe that shot into that target. Remember you've hit all the shots required. Just go into your gallery of great shots you've hit and repeat 👍
Once could do that
Liam bit of advice, make sure you go back and watch not only this lesson with Simon, but all of them.
And when you do look at everything, not just the golf component. It's really clear that your mind is racing and it's racing to be better, impatiently so and it's the details that count and that takes time.
That's why the pro's are so good, because they know the details count, they know they need to be patient with themselves.
We are our worst critics, our worst students in a lot of cases.
Oh and make sure you buy yourself a swing plate to practice with, don't be a tight arse otherwise you will be robbing yourself.
Excellent lesson
You may have said and I might have missed it, but is this the same with driver?
Yes
Top top instructor.
I'm with Liam, I believe I've watched them all and don't remember this loop trick. Somebody please post a link if you remember. I like it though and will be practicing because I've got the same tendencies as Liam.
All lessons in the Sunday fix playlist on the channel Jerry
Sikorsky swing there is a lot of moving parts 😂
Liam, youve done that loop drill with McKinnon and Maude and Simon.
Where do I get the block that holds the alignment sticks?
Awsome basic lesson 🫡
I always try to remember what Simon said “over the pole, under the pole”
A good lesson with kit none of us have and hardly simple, Liam simple version achieving same (no better) stand at address club head floating above ball, push out to the right then in a circular anti clockwise motion move left loop back towards the ball, this will take you naturally back to the left behind the ball loop round coming clockwise right then back to the ball, keep going, feel the flow, this will encourage an in to out swing will certainly kill over the top and you will feel your swing traveling in to out, you can do it with a spoon in your lounge😊no charge I thank you 😅😅tbh honest it's all over the tinternet it's called " figure 8 reverse drill" and you not doing it up in the air which what this lesson was😮try it tell me I'm wrong.
Simon talks an awful lot of sense. Keeps it nice and simple to understand
He so dose
Not sure the title reflects the lesson. I know i can benefit from this as I'm getting shanks every now and again which gives me a lot of fear. What's the stick and how do I get one?
It ment I have had this lesson b4 and I can’t move forward until I master this move
@ I know but it reads like it’s a shit lesson. But it’s a great lesson and to be fair to yourself you nailed it pretty quickly.
I guess this is why the tour players consistently spend time with their swing, putting & mental coaches, The good/better players do the dirty work
Does the same apply for The Driver?
Good luck liam , watching now i no how your felling ,
Simon is the best
Here here are
Simon talks laymans language..simple and understandable.
Don’t have time to practice you on the course almost every day, I wish I was
You reckon. 1 a week if lucky
@ but being on the course making videos you are getting to play with work, it’s more than most people do
Liam you are luck Ricky Flair didn’t put you in the figure four leg lock and batter you into to submission.😂😂😂😂😂 great stuff with great people.
Liam I don't know why your not using your noodle and basket like you do with driver hitting draw after draw it works with irons aswell, make another vid using your irons good luck.
I’ve noticed 174 mechanical elements going wrong in Liam’s swing. They include…
Why are you looping the swing??? Straight back and through with the feet set for the draw???
I was expecting Nicks third lesson today. Squaring the club face.
Happy new haircut Simon.
Liam, you're using the top half of your body to swing. Start to use your lower body more, and that will give you time to drop the club inside. It's basically a lazy top-half swing. Enjoy using your legs, ankles, and feet with rhythm. It will all drop back into place. Simple.
You’re loosing it mate. Simon is brilliant. I’ve watched the original lesson with you a few times. Great drill.
WOW,A golf coach that actually wants to know what the pupil wants, "theres a thing",
Yes I've pressed Like
Practise make perfect, golf would be a really crap game or not as interesting, if we had to put no effort in to it, and just turn up on a Sunday morning and tee off. One of the things I had to get my head around was, yes I'm paying ££ for the lessons and only doing drills, but it's what the drills get you to that's important. some great progress mate. In winter I never take a score card out with me, I can tell if I'm hitting the ball well and the conditions can destroy your card as well, plugged lie's long grass, just simple put the practise in and transfer to the course.
Simon❤
Liam =has a busy life?
