I saw this video on the morning before I played. I will NEVER go back to any other method to hit driver. I no longer hit at the ball. This turn allows you to swing through the ball. I finally got my drives to be about 220. (58) year old here and thrilled to have gained distance!!! Thank you for a very easy and doable golf swing.
Thanks once again Jess. Love this segment. Practiced it while wintering in Fernandina Beach and now bombing it in North Jersey. I am averaging 30 more yards on my drives. Fun! I now use this method with my irons and fairway woods. Hitting straight and long with no pain or soreness at all. The way you make your videos really make it simple. I am a fan.
I've watched hundreds of golf videos on YT over the years, trying to cobble together some semblance of a golf swing that had consistency and decent power. _THIS_ has been the _ONLY_ one that FINALLY made dimming light bulbs light up and ultimately got me _killing_ the driver (and ALL my clubs)! LOL!! This should put professional, expensive golf teachers to shame! Thanks for keeping it *simple* and finally opening my frustrated eyes to what truly gets the ball out there, mate!! 👍👏
Love the advise. Been Watching Tommy Saguto and I think I caught you guys together on one video! I live in MA so would need to get down to Boca for some lessons. I'm not your online kind of guy!! I need people to put me in place like a chiropractor!! LOL LMK how we can do this. Great videos, you give me hope!! I'm a senior!!! 60!!! I need help.
Unbelievable. That is the most clarity I have had with Stack and Tilt in a number of years. I tried this with Michael Boyd (PGA Player) back in the day. I should be shot with not staying with that 20 years ago. I'm 68 and have been struggling with Irons for some time. I was desperate to do something different and remembered Michael and his success with his on the PGA Tour. It helped me so much in one day I was beside myself! Then I checked off with Michael just to reiterate some of the Keys. Only in this for 3 days now and then I check off online and snag you. Your simple moves make it seem so incredible and EASY to bring it together! Thank You Jess Frank! Nuck in Tulsa/BA
Hello Jess. I just got back from the range and I tried this and I couldn't believe it. Hit the best drives I've ever hit in my life. A little background: I've been reluctant to dive into this method, because I've just got done putting about 4 months of committing to learning a conventional swing from a well-known instructor here on youtube. I've been diligently practicing his step-by step approach, and I've made very good progress, and I greatly appreciate all I've learned, but I'm thirsty for distance that never seems to come. I've dipped my toe into the method recently through a few Saguto videos, so when I saw this video..I understood the basics of the setup. When I tried this at the range, it was like the clouds parted and a chorus of angels sang to me "Here is that distance thou wanted!"..LOL. I blasted one that flew out to the 200 yards sign and rolled far past it. I've never even come close to that before! And these were range balls! Now, it wasn't all perfect of course. I pull hooked quite a few, but then I told myself to take it down a notch and relax and started hitting them straight again. Also what's great is there was no slice spin to be found anywhere, which I get all the time with the conventional swing. Anyways, I'm besides myself with joy and now I'm fully a convert to the method. And honestly the conventional swing stuff I've been working with is beneficial, because I have a frame of reference to compare and I find it really isn't such a drastic adjustment. You basically end up in the same positions, especially after impact. So thank you Jess, you have a new subscriber and I've signed up for your Airwayz content. looking forward to working these ideas into my swing.
Jess I have never swung a club that fast in my life. I'm 62 and have always been fitted for a regular shaft. After trying your 3 swing technique I think I might need my first stiff shaft. Thanks for everything. Robin
This is the first time I've been the first commentator on any channel I follow! Mr. Frank, I love your videos and I cannot wait until my first lesson with you on March 25 at 10:30 AM. I have watched 71 with this video and I hope to have watched all of your videos by March 25th. My wife who will also be taking lessons from you is also excited to get started. I'm watching your videos and then trying out the tips at the driving range. I believe I'm improving on my swing because of these videos! (But we'll see when I get in front of you, LOL). Thanks for your thorough and easy to understand videos. I'll see you on March 25, unless you have a cancellation and call me to come sooner. /s/ W. L. Athas
Excellent explanation and demonstration Jess on how to stay centered in the golf swing! I have been working on lifting the club more with my arms creating a more rounded circle rather than an elongated one on the backswing. When I stay centered, the results of the shot will show! Always find something in your lessons Jess! Keep up the good work!!
Thank you Jess, another great video. Your lessons have really helped me improve my ball striking. I am now able to hit straight, long, and controlled shots. It makes the game a lot more fun.
Really enjoy your videos- the right arm magic one really helped. Please consider doing a similar video for driver, i.e. right arm only drills. Tend to get "lost" as the club gets longer. In any event, keep up the great work!
I learned to hit driver using this methode 2 years ago. I got cocky and got into bad habits trying to hit like a younger player...I need to return to this. Great video.
Jess! Great video! You crush it! My epic speed is on the way and look forward to push draws following your incredible lessons! Hope all is well in Boca! Dennis
After 45 years I am finally changing my swing to your method. Sore back, sore right knee, and shoulder surgery has convinced me to go to this method. As a #4 hitter in baseball the swing is NOT the same. My friends always asked why I can’t hit a golf ball like a baseball. It is a different type of swing.
Changed my grip to your, changed stance to yours, setup with toes pointed out and ball of right foot even with my left heel like yours, Turned around torso ( no sway ), pulled thru hard with left arm to snap the whip... ( had to mentally aim right ), kept more weight on left, hammered the driver to within 100 yards of the green a couple times today...still have to practice for consistency... PS I use a Callaway 21, 11.5 degree driver. Thanks again...i have never been able to draw the ball...my quote was always "My kingdom to draw the ball"... I was told by a College coach last week that with my path, it would be impossible!. I setup like you do and my first shot yesterday was a4 Iron draw around and corner 60 yards from the green. I have watched all 625,349 videos on RUclips about golf... I got great concepts from them... but your grip, stance, hip and arm movement, weight on left FOR ME... was the answer. Thanks again!! Seriously ... thanks!
That's awesome Craig! It makes me so happy to hear my videos have effected your golf game in a positive way:) Did you sign up for my free newsletter!:))
Great video Jess! This will help me as well as many others with the backswing. My problem though is with the downswing and learning that hip slide that you make that is visible in the slow motion replay. I feel like that move is the hardest thing to learn in this swing and it doesn't get discussed enough in videos. Maybe because it's easier to teach that move in a personal lesson? But without it the consistency will not be there. Thanks again and please give us more downswing/hip movement drills and videos.
I’m assuming if your left shoulder is the middle of your swing that your left hand must do a lot of the release and your right hand is just very lightly holding the club is that right?
jess, good lesson, i've been working on this for a couple of years and when i get it right can really pop it out there to spots on the fairway i'm not used to. i'm 73 and at times can get it out with the younger 40-50 yr. age guys in my league from the same tees and their eyes will bug out....whatttt!!!
Nice one Jess great video 😊, I will be implementing this right hip right shoulder back . That tip is for irons I think also 🤔 on the Irons I’m just remembering straight arms because when I videotaped myself on the iPhone 📱 i could see my arms breaking down folding to much, exactly like the way you show it of what not to do. I think less of a back swing also will help me to keep the left arm straight … then right arm Straight on the follow through
Very good points.... this should help stop my tendency of leaning back for more loft on a drive and keeping my weight shift more forward! Obviously, the more turn of hips/shoulders will translate into a more powerful down swing and greater distance. 👍
Jess. Great video, excellent explanation. Circular motion! Brilliant! Great illustration that a lot of other stack and tilt instructors have not been communicating. I’ve studied stack and tilt for years. Big proponent of the system. However, I’ve been struggling with my swing and specifically my driving recently. I’m sick of getting out driven by guys twice my age who are in worse shape than me. I really appreciate this illustration. Any chance you can provide a suggestion to a video that you’ve done regarding the transition or swinging down from the top? Thanks again.
Hi Jess. Brillaint video. I'm using your entire collection to re-start my golf after a bit of a lay off. Just wondering though, is ball position off left heel heel and should I keep my left arm straight as per your tilt and stack video swings.
Thank you Scotty! So happy to help! The ball position can vary depending on ball flight but standard is usually inside the left heel. Also, keeping the left arm straight is for the radius so just make sure you are doing it correctly:)
Jess, thanks for all the great info. I’ve noticed neither yourself nor Tom Saguto lift your left heel off the ground in the backswing. Before I converted to S&T my left heel would come up in the backswing. When I converted it seemed like the right thing to do keep that heel down. Now I’m not so sure. What are your thoughts on lifting the left heel in the backswing? I experimented with it and it seems to free up my backswing but if it’s a rabbit hole I don’t want to go down, let’s figure that out now. Thank you in advance.
I don’t teach lifting the left heel because I just think for most people it puts too much weight on the back leg. Hope this helps. Also, lifting the left heel is a result of extending tilting and turning
My goal has always been to break 90. I recently played a round and was really frustrated with the way I hit the ball. After watching you and Saguto's video I made the decision to try the S&L method. Six days later with no practice and just setting the weight on my front foot my score was 90. I was happy with it but am not satisfied. How much wieght should I be putting on my front foot. Sometimes when I take some swings here at home I feel like my trail foot is on the toe with the heel being slightly off the ground. Is there some way to know when I have it right. By the way great videos. Thanks
Hi Jess, love watching you videos, maybe you can help me , does the left shoulder always start the back swing. The reason I ask this because when I move my left shoulder first I feel as though I don’t turn my right hip enough .
Hey Jess thanks for the tips. Stack and tilt has really changed my golf game giving me a consistent low point but I’ve really struggled being able to consistently use driver. On video the one thing that stands out to me with driver is seeing my head dip down in backswing. With this tip I find it looks like my head is moving away from the ball/target. Do you have any tips for this?
It's ok to have a little head movement away from the target with the driver swing. Sometimes golfers keep their weight forward and their head too far forward. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the videos, I'm relearning my swing after recent surgery and stack and tilt seems to be helping. I understand the concept of weight centering and not shifting it away from the target, approx. 70/30 forward. Between p3 and p4 in my old conventional swing I would start my forward move with my left knee toward the target using my right foot instep for leverage. I see that in S&T the forward move is basically the same but I still feel that I need to use my right foot to start the forward move for leverage, which of course gives me the feeling of more weight on my right side. Is this a normal feeling or am I missing something in my weight transfer move? Thanks again and carry on with the good work.
@@JessFrankGolfAcademyBocaRaton Good morning Mr. Frank, I think you may have misunderstood my comment, actually it was a question - "I see that in S&T the forward move is basically the same but I still feel that I need to use my right foot to start the forward move for leverage, which of course gives me the feeling of more weight on my right side. Is this a normal feeling or am I missing something in my weight transfer move?" Hal F.
@@speakthetruthplease5644 Good question Hal! So when you change flex in your knees you get pressure in your right heel. But there is no shift. This is probably what you are feeling. Hope this explains it
I like the concept, but with back fusion neck fusion both knees replaced I cannot turn near what you want. At 72 years of age and a retired firefighter what should I do to engage this concept when I can’t do physically everything you are suggesting.
Didn’t have to watch the vid , the pictures show it all. Have you ever been accused of reverse pivot or performing stack and tilt like I’ve been? Amazing that people don’t understand that a twisted spine which everyone promotes will do nothing but hurt your back over time and the consistency from day to day is up and down. Nice and I will now watch your vid.
@@JessFrankGolfAcademyBocaRaton that’s what I’m saying, your not torquing or Twisting the spine, it only moved in 3 Dimensions with the base over your lead foot and the top over the base. If I’m wrong so be it but yeas your neutral which is a great thing.
I agree with what you taught. No argument against what you are saying; but is their a link to the downswing; the other side of your story? Cheers😃⛳️👍🥂❤️
This may work for many of you but I tried it and still only hit my driver 185-200 if I hit it well for me. I must be one of those people that will never get any better with my distance. Very frustrating
You want to take it up another notch? …I would add a forth point. On your down swing as you are pivoting to your left leg/side brace your left leg and actually push back while moving your arms/hands towards the impact position. Your swing speed is going to increase and you’re actually using your legs as anchor points for increasing club speed and naturally ball speed. This is the modern swing you’re seeing the pros do today. They know how to use the ground to leverage their swings to get everything out of it.
Getting the club high in the back swing like this promotes a steep angle coming down in which you will sky the ball. It is much better to stay on a flatter swing plan. Stack and tilt doesn't work for most golfers. Too much changing direction of the club.
Seriously? U want us to take your word as to where and how far it goes?why not some proof? Plus 270 really isn't that far.a weight shift swing adds more distance
I saw this video on the morning before I played. I will NEVER go back to any other method to hit driver. I no longer hit at the ball. This turn allows you to swing through the ball.

Thanks for the videos, I'm relearning my swing after recent surgery and stack and tilt seems to be helping. I understand the concept of weight centering and not shifting it away from the target, approx. 70/30 forward. Between p3 and p4 in my old conventional swing I would start my forward move with my left knee toward the target using my right foot instep for leverage. I see that in S&T the forward move is basically the same but I still feel that I need to use my right foot to start the forward move for leverage, which of course gives me the feeling of more weight on my right side. Is this a normal feeling or am I missing something in my weight transfer move? Thanks again and carry on with the good work.
Thank you so much!
@@JessFrankGolfAcademyBocaRaton Good morning Mr. Frank, I think you may have misunderstood my comment, actually it was a question -
"I see that in S&T the forward move is basically the same but I still feel that I need to use my right foot to start the forward move for leverage, which of course gives me the feeling of more weight on my right side. Is this a normal feeling or am I missing something in my weight transfer move?"

@@speakthetruthplease5644 Good question Hal! So when you change flex in your knees you get pressure in your right heel. But there is no shift. This is probably what you are feeling. Hope this explains it
As a lefty to help with the hip turn, I raise my lead foot (right) with the driver which complements your three moves.
Fantastic thank you !
I like the concept, but with back fusion neck fusion both knees replaced I cannot turn near what you want. At 72 years of age and a retired firefighter what should I do to engage this concept when I can’t do physically everything you are suggesting.
@@WilliamErnst-l1m only go as far as your normal range of motion suggests. You can still do these movements just do less hope this helps
Does anything in the swing change if hitting 3 or 5 wood off the tee
Nope :)
I assume that perhaps the amount you straighten the rt. Leg is somewhat less when you're hitting a wedge or short iron. Please advise.
You are correct sir!
I have a question? Is your right foot pulled back a little bit behind your left foot?
Maybe a fraction I have always played that way
Looks like he's set up for a draw.
Looks like someone else found out what a neutral spine looks like in a golf motion. Neutral spine equals no injury and joints that work properly.
Are you saying this video is a neural spine :)
Didn’t have to watch the vid , the pictures show it all. Have you ever been accused of reverse pivot or performing stack and tilt like I’ve been? Amazing that people don’t understand that a twisted spine which everyone promotes will do nothing but hurt your back over time and the consistency from day to day is up and down. Nice and I will now watch your vid.
@@JessFrankGolfAcademyBocaRaton that’s what I’m saying, your not torquing or
Twisting the spine, it only moved in 3
Dimensions with the base over your lead foot and the top over the base. If I’m wrong so be it but yeas your neutral which is a great thing.
@@Wooduckthank you!!!
@@WooduckThis is Stack & Tilt.
It saved my back. I was in a really bad spot before with extreme lower back pain.
How do you transition from the top into the downswing with the driver?
Weight forward and hip slide and right side pelvic tilt :)
And arms down /)
At top of swing how many % of weight is on left foot?
@@chattor1 60%
So Dr Kown’s method?
So Dr Andy Plummers system:)
Lifting the lead heel also encourages a full turn.
👍
How closed are your feet? From the DL view, it looks as if the tip of your trail foot aligns with the middle of your lead foot.
Maybe 1 ball behind
Is your stance slightly closed?
Nope just square but my toes are turned out :)
@@JessFrankGolfAcademyBocaRaton thanks!
I agree with what you taught.
No argument against what you are saying; but is their a link to the downswing; the other side of your story? Cheers😃⛳️👍🥂❤️
Thank you Thomas!
Is 60% of the weight still on the lead leg when you have completed your backswing? I find that hard to believe, based on what I’m seeing.
I have 60% or the weight on the left when I get to the top
Great video and your right, but what if my friends are watching this too.
Lol!!!
Massive 220-230 yards?
260-280 yards for me and maxing at 300 yards
This may work for many of you but I tried it and still only hit my driver 185-200 if I hit it well for me. I must be one of those people that will never get any better with my distance. Very frustrating
You may not be doing it correctly but there are also other factors involved too:
You want to take it up another notch? …I would add a forth point. On your down swing as you are pivoting to your left leg/side brace your left leg and actually push back while moving your arms/hands towards the impact position. Your swing speed is going to increase and you’re actually using your legs as anchor points for increasing club speed and naturally ball speed. This is the modern swing you’re seeing the pros do today. They know how to use the ground to leverage their swings to get everything out of it.
Absolutely love the 4th point!
Like my mother said when she was trying to dress me as a toddler, Stand Still!
Keep pounding it into my thick head Frank. It helps. 😇
Yes lol!
You can’t load hips and knees when your old and knackered, believe me.
Sure you can just have to know how to move :))
You lost me at weight on the front foot😂
Darn! Lol! 😂😂😂😂

Getting the club high in the back swing like this promotes a steep angle coming down in which you will sky the ball. It is much better to stay on a flatter swing plan. Stack and tilt doesn't work for most golfers. Too much changing direction of the club.
Hi James thanks for your feedback! Have a great day:)
Seriously? U want us to take your word as to where and how far it goes?why not some proof? Plus 270 really isn't that far.a weight shift swing adds more distance
Thanks for your comments!
