![[PROS vs. AMS] | Create LAG In Your Golf Swing](/img/1.gif)
I'm 69 years old and have been playing golf for 57 years. I've watched countless self-help golf videos. THIS drill has made a greater impact on my driving distance than any other single drill I've ever tried. I've only worked with it during two practice sessions, but my driving average for my last round was 17 yds longer (247 vs. 230). I can't wait to get more comfortable with this new swing feel which, I think, will result in even greater distances. There's no single silver bullet for golf, but this drill comes close! THANKS!
Wow, thanks so much! Appreciate it 😃
This by far is the best video that truly explains how to create true lag. Thank you so much for sharing this training video!
Glad it was helpful!
It’s a phenomenal video. I accidentally “found” this swing years ago and have been trying to rediscover it ever since because it only lasted a single round back then and I didn’t know I how to recreate it. This video had me reclaim it and I absolutely blasted my drives last time out, not to mention the perfectly pure contact with the also unusually long iron shots…
Nice!! Glad it helped!
Can’t believe this doesn’t have millions of views, best golf tip ever honestly
Thanks!
While recovering from shoulder surgery, I started casting the club incessantly. It's been driving me crazy. Now I do a little pump drill, feeling the float, before each swing and it has helped tremendously. This is a rare drill that gives you mechanics and FEEL! Thank you!
This is so increadibly good - I also watched the special video. Absolutely what I need and have been looking for. I've done it before, then dropped out of it and doie something else. Pretty good shots but I remember how good I thought my shots were when I actually shallowed the club properly and kept the line through the ball. Thank you so much for this video. You made someone very happy.
You're so welcome!
Great drill. Love the simplified way you break it down starting with the grip and partial swings. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
This is absolute Gold!!! This is what I've been missing to create effortless club speed, power, and compression. New word for me...Float Load. My club speed is around mid 60's to low 70's no matter how hard I swing. I will work on this Float Load drill. Thank you so much for sharing!
Happy to help!
I can honestly say that once you get the hang of this it literally is game changing. I’m hitting everything 15-20 yards further with less effort. My low point is stillllll a little behind the ball but this tip cured my pull hooks! Any tips on doing this and getting a low point after the ball better?
Just a thought….at address, release all the tension you’re holding in your arms especially your inner shoulder crease. Then allow the swing to begin in your body and controlled by your feet. I have the same issue of sometimes hitting behind the ball and I find that it happens when I’m trying to do too much with my arms. Good luck!
@@SteveMe21685 We have the same name? My name is Stephen and last name starts with an M lol.
@@TheSalonGuy No sir, im actually you in the future....Now if you'll just shutup and listen to me we can fix this swing!!! lmao
watched this this morning...tried it today..what a difference!...lose a little control, but that can be overcome!...the speed and ease of getting a faster club without tensing the arms is amazing!!
Great job! Thanks for sharing!
No lie, this drill works!! Quite possibly the greatest video to fix your iron contact and compression.
Great to hear!
This is just fantastic. Just discovered this a few weeks ago and this puts all the pieces together.
So glad to hear it helped! Keep playing well!
I agree with the previous comment. I tried it and for the first time understood how the feeling of the weightlessness of the club helps your body manage the transition and acceleration in the downswing. No rushing down, no casting, just easy solid swing. Best drill ever.
Wow, thanks for that! Hope you play well!
You guys are the best coaches on youtube. No one has helped my golf as much as you
Thank you so much! I appreciate that!
Lots of lag with my practice swing. Lag disappears when the ball appears. I hope this will work. Excellent video.
Thanks for watching! Let me know how it goes!
This is the best golf teaching video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
BEST DESCRIPTION I EVER HEARD
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
Wow, this is an eye opener. Float load. Will make sure to try it in the next range session.
Float loading at the top with a slower tempo downswing eliminated my tendency to cast and lose all lag by the time I reached parallel. So good!
Glad it helped!! Play well!
Good or bad idea? As I go from parallel to impact I am also adding pushing the grip end down with my left (lead) hand and lifting the grip with my right hand. Seems to promote lag thru impact and ensure right wrist stays bent as I “think” about having right hand knuckles up as I lift. Don’t want to overthink every swing - just trying to train my hands. Thoughts? Thanks.
Great image showing natural lag , not forced. Is club face square just after impact or turning over. I'm sure Drill will help us warriors. KEN
Glad it helped! Play well!
Loving the float load concept, looking forward to trying it. Doubt I will get 194 yd total with my 8 iron which seems silly long given the easy looking swing you did, but I know my numbers , so looking to see if gains are possible with seemingly less effort.
I’ll report back and give you “ real world “ 64 yr old 6 HCap before and after... using range balls, top tracer tech ( pretty accurate for ball speeds) in cold Glasgow November weather, if I can float load with 4 layers of clothing on and my stiff old body and get gains.. you will hear about it !
Let me know how it goes!!
yup, understood it... think i can adopt this
Awesome!
Wow...excellent video...most are pretty good...but this is a feel you can work on in your backyard.
Thank you for watching 😀
You briefly mentioned it, but are you still rolling you knuckles at impact?
This is gold ❤
Glad you think so! Cheers!
playing off a 8 handicap, decided to implement this drill and promised myself to stick to it on the range, tried it yesterday for the first, shanked alot, could you please help in what i could be doing wrong, thanks
excellent !
Thank you! Cheers!
Great drill
Thanks!
190 with an i8! Heck I’m just gonna practice the half swing and if I can get 160s with my eight!! Drooling !
Would love a how to release the club video or do you guys have one already? Been watching for years and I think from all the "lag and stop flipping" videos I never release the club and lately it's been causing a lot of shanks and drives starting straight but going right
We've got a ton of videos on RUclips! ruclips.net/user/TopSpeedGolfsearch?query=release
We also have a section of our Top Speed Golf system dedicated to the Straight Line Release. You can check that out here: topspeedgolf.com/topic/release-introduction/
Just a observation. The action which is occurring but not being mentioned is the side bending action of the spine. All good ball strikers do it so reflexively they often don’t realize it but it is not something that most beginners do when swinging a club.
Biomechanically the action is similar to the under arm tossing of a rock across the surface of a pond. If done at the top of the backswing you will observe by just side bending and doing nothing else it causes the shoulders to tilt more than the hips which swings the hands down and forward in an arc and causes the trail arm to tuck into the rib cage. What makes that move “magic” in the Harry Penick sense is that it is possible to side bent backwards while the shoulders are still being pulled forward by the club momentum in the backswing. When you isolate the side bend action you will discover it also creates a reflexive shifting of the hips laterally in reaction to the upper body mass moving backwards; the sub-conscious brain reacting to keep the body in balance over the feet just as it does when winding up to throw a ball with the trail arm.
Pulling the hand down with side bend action against the forward inertia of the club head is what causes the shaft to bend and store potential energy from the backswing - the advantage of metal and carbon shafts vs. hickory Byron Nelson discovered. But to maintain that shaft bend and lag in the wrists it creates the laws of physics dictate that the hands need to keep trying to acceleration faster than the club head mass. That is accomplished in the swing of good ball strikers because in their downswings then progressively increase the amount of side bend.
I came to realize this by analyzing videos of pro swings frame by frame. The more a golfer’s anatomy allows them to side bend in the downswing the more they can keep the hands pulling down against the inertia of the club head mass. In the swings of most recreational golfers which lack progressive side bend action the hands don’t keep accelerating faster than the club head mass resulting in the bend coming out of the shaft early in the downswing - casting.
Literal perfect explanation
Glad it was helpful!
I am watching everyday for next 30 days.
Haha, awesome!
Can that float load be used with your driver? Or is that a stupid question
Watched in frame by frame and when you did the full swing at 8:22 there was absolutely no "float load" Is this just a thought?
Can you carry this slowly with the arms and wrists?
8 iron 194 yards. Dang! That float is inner strength.
Interesting concept with regards to the "floating swing" and makes sense. However, there appears to be some conflict with finishing the swing. Now in contrast to the last video I just watched with Clay, it was recommended using the left forearm to pull down on the club and the last 3 fingers of the left hand should be gripping the end of the grip tightly in the pull down move. Not to mention I cannot tell you the number of videos I've watched and the discrepancy with regards to the hand position at impact. Left wrist bowed, right wrist hinged, roll the wrist over shortly after impact, don't roll your wrist. Way too much inconsistency. That is withe exception of just about every video ending with click the link below to learn the "E Slot maneuver" to finish the swing. I've seen the video and it still doesn't answer the question of just what is the correct hand position at impact.
There’s not the video about the tip of the elbow when clicking where you said.

Folks...listen to this video!!! I'll admit, it's a bit weird at first, but I've been practicing this on the range. I'm effortlessly hitting my 4 iron 245 yds using this technique. "More speed with less effort" 100% true. Study this video and do exactly what he says. I recorded 3 shots on video with my 4 iron today and It sounded like a gun shot when I hit the ball. When this clicks with you and you learn it, you are gonna piss off all your buddies with superhuman power. I'm over the moon now that I got this down
That's awesome to hear! Would you mind if I shared this comment with perspective members in some of our marketing material?
@@TopSpeedGolf No problem!
@TopSpeedGolf I'd love to share the 10 second video of me utilizing this technique on the range. The ball just explodes like a gunshot at contact. I'm so stoked.
That's so awesome. I'm glad it's going so well for you! Keep it up!
I'm not an idiot, you're not Clay.
Any accomplished golfer knows you cannot create lag or an effortless swing. As a scratch golfer myself I have only tried to create lag about 100 times. It never works to the point of being an added benefit. Lag is a result, not a manufactured happening. Lag is the result of an aggressive athletic swing. THE GAME IS A SPORT not a powder puff derby. Swings can look easy but those making them will tell you that is not the case. It might be turn speed. It might be right side power. But it is an emotional athletic effort to knock the crap out of the ball. And lag is something that just happens by itself and automatically in that swing. A top pro named David Knighton in Florida once told me, "my swing might look easy, but near impact I am trying to hit that ball as hard as I possibly can". David tried to make the U.S. Open every year and hit the ball a mile with what looked like a completely effortless swing. He could hit his driver 300 yards with his right hand only on the club. Do you seriously believe an effortless swing is going to do that. If you do, you are loopy. He equated to trying to knock the back seat rest off of a golf cart with your right arm near impact. You can't see that said David. David said he used no leg effort. He also said in his life he has tried just about everything. The members of the club constantly paid to try to get him qualified for the tour. He never made it. But he did go high several times in the U.S. Open qualifying chain of tournaments. One year right to the end at Bay Hill. I followed him around. That was fun. He got up and down out of sand 7 of 7 in 36 holes. He could play.
Wow, you are really in love with this David guy 😍
131 is my maxed out 8 iron 😢
Same boat 😢
Rolling all my body and butt, same 135 max..Of course no proper coach here. Self talent but that's all I got..
