If you have a friend that is struggling with his driver at the moment and is constantly hooking it or slicing it...Why don't you help them out by sharing this video with them🙌🏌⛳
I need a lesson lol I tend to hit the ball straight,but most of the time its a push,so i aim further left like 20 yards left with the driver,but in all fairness i hit it a long ways..anyways,sometimes if i hit it off the toe it turns into a hook which gets me in trouble,have no idea what im doing wrong..i am a truck driver,i would drive to wherever you guys are and pay for a lesson
BOMBSHELL DEVELOPMENT ON HITTING DRIVER. ITS LIKE CHEATING! GOLF TRAINER COMPANIES ARE IN PANIC MODE!!! WATCH BEFORE IT GETS DELETED!!! OUR FKIN HAIR IS ON FIRE 🔥!!!! 😆
For years and years I thought I needed to have a short and compact back swing to be able to strike the ball well. The other week, I started trying this (which I got from another video of yours) bigger turn thingy. I really feel the legs and hips working like you demonstrate and the chest turn as well, with all the clubs. Driver is still pretty wild, as I struggle with open face, but with every other club I'm longer and still as consistent, if not more so. I'm over a club longer. Gone from not being sure to reach the green from 150 metres with my 7 iron to being scared that the 8 iron goes too long from that distance. It's also helped my path (when I do it right) and it's not out to in every time anymore. Letting the hips and legs move is integral to me.
Without a doubt, this is 100% the best tutorial on how to clean up and become more consistent with your driver. This lesson can and should be used as a baseline for irons as well. With irons, move the ball back in your stance to compress the ball and you'll be amazed with how much more feel you get from your irons.
Listen and watch this lesson closely. One of the best descriptions of the cause and effect of driver inconsistency for amateurs. Well explained. If only people would do the drills, the difference in the outcome would be immeasurable. Well don M&MG.
Concur. Well done. I was already doing the feet together drill. At the driving range, I start practicing driver with a progression of feet together, feet one driver head apart, 2 driver heads apart, 2.5 driver heads apart, turn lead foot 45 degrees open, turn trail foot 30 degrees open, then finally move trail foot back 2 inches into regular stance for actual full drives.
What I love about the feeling of moving the arms straight down on the first move of the down swing, is that it seems to get the lead shoulder moving round and up, which in turn helps me nicely hit up on the ball.
what I feel helped a lot of golfers aswell is pushing back the right shoulder opening their shoulder line towards the target... just as a extra tip swell
For a relative new golfer, making a couple of practice swings to feel loose is good, then when addressing the ball, do a couple backswing checks to ball impact position to make sure face is square
How do you avoid whipping the club inside in the takeaway when doing tip 1? Tried it at the range today and I got so much more shallow but was flinging the club inside in the backswing
It has come to my attention that I do not rotate throughout the shot correctly. Thinking back, none of my coaches in baseball or tennis have ever told me what I'm doing wrong, and I've never been coached in golf. I'd appreciate it if you guys could talk a bit about what the lower body is supposed to feel like during various shots with concepts to try for during contact and the follow through. Stuff like when the hips should square up during downswing, how they should release during follow through, is it a constant speed rotation of the hips or more of a release during the first or second half of the downswing. Should I feel like my ankles are twisting during the load or end of the swing, or is the balance shifted from the soles to the sides of the feet at either end? I'd appreciate any clarification on this stuff, even if it's added piecemeal sprinkled through various other videos.
I broke drivers, still golfing. Embarrassment is part of learning, we think if we adults we must be good at everything immediately. Enjoy the game, there are always be bad shots… just like the rest of us.
I’ve been playing self taught bad golf for 21 years, taking golf lesson for the first time this year. I broke two drivers heads in two months first time in 21 years I’ve broken a club. I’ve been buying cheap old drivers to practice with but realized that I was hitting the ball on the heel pretty much a shank. I haven’t let it discourage me rather using the info to correct that heel strike. Keep up playing and honestly practicing at least a few times a week helps, I try to hit 25 balls in my backyard every few days, practice doesn’t need to be hours a day to make improvements, I’m not trying make the tour just enjoy golf a little more.
Another great tip for golfers with limited flexibility is to lift the left heel in the backswing and push it back down in the transition. Many top golfers did this.
Can you guys do one on stance. Had a lesson and he had me stand so close I had to choke up. It was uncomfortable and won’t be doing another lesson with him.
Hi guys any advice for someone who struggles with rotation due to lower back problems on the right side. Feel like i have to use a ' sawn off ' swing !
I have a question just want to know if you have any drills for an open club face but for someone who doesn’t swing over the top ? That’s what I’ve been doing when watching my videos of my swing back
Start with the grip Brad and then the table away. You have to see if you can fit the open club face as early as possible in the swing. You need to identify what is causing it.
A lot of these videos, I see the golfers right arm leave the body…Ben Hogan, who hit the ball a ton and straight kept his right arm on the body…he wasn’t a big man but had a cannon shot.
@@meandmygolf. thank you by the way for all the excellent content and love the glove!! I often get narrow after takeaway then push the ball left and chunky - feels as if I am stabbing the ball and won’t hit beyond 170 yards even with 5 iron! I’m a right handed person who plays left handed (former tennis player) - to close to ball at set up with closed hips or pulling with the lead hand to start downswing is what I believe could be the issue🫣
While you are certainly welcome to your opinions, there are others that say none of what you show is true. Golf Magazine about 1992 did an extensive article on all this in a three part series. They used 200 touring pros and 400 amateurs, computers, harnesses, and very good artists to identify the differences. And they were dramatic. But is a nutshell touring pros turn away in a very level and connected plane. They do not free up their lower bodies like Greg Norman showed. Arms and shoulder only go along for the ride in what is a very level and "connected" swing. And keeping your head still is actually the kiss of death. They use lots of head movement to load up and clear things out of the way. I used it to turn myself back into a scratch player after I was about to quit the game in my 50's. You become unbelievably straight because this swing takes out almost all of the timing. It is also right in line with a lot of what Nicklaus advocated. Not all but a lot. Level body turn is what drivees the swing. Shoulder and arm are passive followers. Shoulders hardly dip at all. The left hip is closer to the target at the top of the swing than at address. This is what they do. And talented artists showed their swing and the average swing. I sure saw myself as average and I did not like what I saw. I was one of those still head guys that swung with my arms and shoulders.. Yuk.
@@meandmygolf. it does and they always do mate, I’m not the greatest, at 38 now I only had my first ever round last year and have never been able to get over 200 carry and from your videos I’ve been able to. I hit my longest drive at 247 yesterday. I just need to watch this video over and over to get it drilled in because I know it’s technique over power.

How much is a lesson with you guys? And where are you based?
I’m not even sure if this video can help my buddy 😂😂
"IT'S LIKE CHEATING" The amount of RUclips videos with that heading is unbelievable, actually puts me off watching them.
Totally agree; a million different tips out there but you just gotta find the ones that work for you. :)
Still watched though 😄
@@fresher21uk ya got me 🤣

"This one neat trick"...
I've seen loads of people talking about dropping the hands, but I don't recall them tying it in with the left knee.
Now it makes more sense.

I have implemented the feet together driver drill. It’s amazing how far you can hit it like that with good effort and intent.
I'm even more advanced: I drive with my feet crossed

Thanks. Glad you liked it👍🏻
I watched hundreds of golf videos on tube. This 1 is top 5 on driver.

“Creating the space”…..so true, so many golfers just have nowhere to go after the backswing.
Such brilliant advice boys - thanks very much. Can't wait to use these at the range later!
Our pleasure. Hope it helps!
what I feel helped a lot of golfers aswell is pushing back the right shoulder opening their shoulder line towards the target... just as a extra tip swell
I can't stop 😂😂 about Pierce's high waters.
LOL! Guys should NOT being wearing these EVER
For a relative new golfer, making a couple of practice swings to feel loose is good, then when addressing the ball, do a couple backswing checks to ball impact position to make sure face is square
Always good reminders at just the right time for my game. Driver has been getting a little lose lately, this should help tighten it down again.
Great. Hope this helps.
You guys are great! This is good fundamental advice - not the "golf tip hacks" we see from a lot of You Tube videos. Thank you!!
Hope they help. Appreciate your support 👍🏻
This!
The only channel worth having notifications as 'on'! Great work team! Love your work.
Glad you enjoy it Chris
@@meandmygolf. I swear, I've just given these tips a test run.
What. A. Difference.
Try Dan Grieve as well - best short game lessons on RUclips.
I love that Shaun is always the go to example.
You guys are great !!!! What a career your having. I found your channel very early on.
Appreciate all your support!!
How do you avoid whipping the club inside in the takeaway when doing tip 1? Tried it at the range today and I got so much more shallow but was flinging the club inside in the backswing
I had that, I made sure the club shaft was down the target line at first parallel with a smooth take away, that worked well.
Great video.
The feet together makes so much sense.
Big game Monday, better go practise
Let us know how it goes

I hit a driver at the range today the head flew off…….. i used another driver and same thing so embarassed. I might give up on golf

same im on my third driver now
you got a lot of coverage on your logo thanks to Aaron Rai and his excellent play this past weekend in Detroit, great job
Yes Ed. We have coached him since he was 11. Great to see him at the top of the leaderboard
Another great tip for golfers with limited flexibility is to lift the left heel in the backswing and push it back down in the transition. Many top golfers did this.
Been really liking your recent content guys keep it up
Thanks Jamie
Can you guys do one on stance. Had a lesson and he had me stand so close I had to choke up. It was uncomfortable and won’t be doing another lesson with him.
Excellent and very consistent instruction. Very cool !!!
Thanks. Hope this is useful to you.
This is the only part of my game i need extreme help in. No matter what i do. I always hit it with to much slice spin on it.
Well done, Team. Aaron is your best student!!!!
Thanks Martin
Massively needed this, thank you 🙏
Great. Hope it helps!
Thank you! Feet together to do release drill? That I gotta try! Can't believe he played standing feet together like that lol ha.
Great video Coaches!!😊
Thanks Mike!
Hi guys any advice for someone who struggles with rotation due to lower back problems on the right side. Feel like i have to use a ' sawn off ' swing !
Definitely a good thing to do if you are limited.
Aaron Rai ... doing the business for you boys! Noticed he had the t-shirt on! 👌
Yes we have coached him since he was 11 years old
I have a question just want to know if you have any drills for an open club face but for someone who doesn’t swing over the top ? That’s what I’ve been doing when watching my videos of my swing back
A drill if you don’t have a bag to do the bag drill that is
Start with the grip Brad and then the table away. You have to see if you can fit the open club face as early as possible in the swing. You need to identify what is causing it.
A lot of these videos, I see the golfers right arm leave the body…Ben Hogan, who hit the ball a ton and straight kept his right arm on the body…he wasn’t a big man but had a cannon shot.
Always keep my back to the target as long as I can and then go.
good stuff.👍
Thanks!
You're welcome Dan. Appreciate your support my friend
Well done guys 😊
Thanks Roy. Hope you’re well pal!
Would love to have a lesson with you guys for every club, long way from Scotland though 🥲
Would love to spend a day with you guys to get me from 11 into single figures hc!
We would love that too Chris. We do have some golf schools coming up very soon in San Diego
ive never had problems with my irons, i just imagine im back handing the golf ball with my leading hand i hit straight every time
Awesome video guys
Thanks Shane
Feet together definitely works for me 👍
it is very odd, when I hit driver with feet together, ball flight is better, and ball would continue to roll after it lands
According to most teachers on RUclips 90% of golfers can’t do anything, thanks for making us feel crap , might as well give up
Is it weird I can hit driver for fun 270 yards playing straight - draw - fade - cut but, woeful with my long irons and putter?
What is the issue with the long irons?
@@meandmygolf. thank you by the way for all the excellent content and love the glove!!
I often get narrow after takeaway then push the ball left and chunky - feels as if I am stabbing the ball and won’t hit beyond 170 yards even with 5 iron!

I use 2 hybrids at the moment in replacement
Most valuable 12:00 minutes ever
Great to hear Robert!
Bring me on the show please. I'm a 22 handicap and a big slicer!!!! HELP
What's with your pants Pierce,did they have an argument with your shoes 😂.
Looks like you lads use arccos?
Yes it's great
Golf is a rotational power sport. If you struggle with rotation, you're going to struggle with golf. Improve how you move, play golf better.
Let’s go Aaron RAI!!!!!
Yes 👌🏻
Expecting some flash flooding??

If you're Always Slicing your driver, get an Offset Driver.
Problem solved.
i would subscribe, the pants, oh the pants, they just don't allow me to.
said you were going to address people who hook, but never did...
But what if I do all that bad stuff, but instead of a slice, I duck hook it.
The club face is closed. You need to identify why and where that is. Check the grip first.
What I do I just make sure my left shoulder brushes my chin
You accidentally pack your missus’ trousers again, aye?
Bro, you gotta get rid of the Coolots man....there fine for 18th century painters...and girls......but dudes?
Trousers shrunk in the wash 🤣🤣
😂😂 Gotta tan those ankles.
If those pants were any shorter they would be capri pants.
@@meandmygolf. 😂 I have brown ankles from joggers, trying to wear shorts as much as possible to even it out! 😬
Snake oil 😂
I can't trust an adult man that wears his pants like that.

STOP WEARING JOGGERS!
