Hope you enjoyed the video guys, going to be putting in a lot of hard work now to get closer to where I want to be this year!

looks like from the video that if the ball was maybe an inch up in your stance you will have a better attack angle.. im no coach just My observation .. ive struggled with this in my lessons as well
This is EXACTLY what I've been working on, and lifting the left heel slightly in the backswing has made all the difference. To make sure the left miss doesn't sneak up on me (as it has with you), I've been making sure my trail hand grip is neutral or even leaning weaker but NEVER leaning strong, and it's kept the misses only one way. Good stuff, Andy.
It has taken me a while (years) to work out that when we talk about weight transfer we are really talking about pressure. I was trying to move my weight over my trail leg which led to a sway rather than focusing on creating downward pressure through my trail foot. No sway but more power and my average drive so far this year is 20+ yards up on all of last year with more to come. This is a really good video, great format seeing you guys working on your game and Andy's swing is looking smooth.
After seeing this video, I took the feel of "very far from the golf ball" to the range and course. I'd say overall this improves my swing, cures my overswing and over the top down swing. I have not measure the sway or film from the face angle, but the feeling of right and far from the golf ball on the top helps me find a room to come back to the ball from the inside, where as before I feel like there is no room to come back from inside and ended up swinging it over the top and hit it downwards.
Hi Guys, my driving was massive, but I didn't have the consistency in my accuracy. I went for a lesson with a pro here in Australia . My back swing was exactly what you are describing and for me that was my sort of trigger point for my whole swing. After the lesson, I came away so deflated and confused . It felt that my body was all tide up and that I had no freedom to move. Also my swing speed went down 15 mph and my distance was way down from what I was hitting. That was a year ago , my game has gone to crap, my H/cap has gone through the roof and I really wanted to give the game up, and all because I wanted a nicer looking swing. After watching this video, it has made me realise that I was doing the right thing for me and that I should go back to what I was doing and this is what I'm going to do . Thanks for this video
Thanks for another great video. How about just moving your ball position forward? I see it's off your front heel. The big hitters have it more forward than that which should translate to a more positive AOA.
Good stuff and good work improving launch conditions. Thanks for the update. I've been wondering how the driver journey was going. I struggle with mine so much I like seeing that progress is possible 😂
Great great video! I am even more guilty of this gap, think mine is a good few inches more than yours Andy. Who knows the cause, perhaps I recentre too early or even reverse pivot. Really appreciate how you explain that using video is so important and then the feel needed to get to "normal". The addition of sportsbox ai ontop of launch monitor data is great! Few of us are as lucky.
I not only lift my left heal (as a right-handed player), I twist my foot slightly a little to allow me to to turn my left knee in and load up on my right leg. I also flare my right foot out a little more to allow the turn. If I don't do these moves, I can't turn and become all arms. Bad arthritis in both shoulders and neck limit my mobility greatly. Does this make sense?
I am having this same problem with driver as I don’t present much loft and angle of attack is more iron appropriate. Have found though a feeling of right hand palm in transition more towards the sky has helped a lot with this. What do you think about that? Also I have gone to a 14 degree mini driver for now.
I would love to see your launch angle at 14. Great post. I'm curious, do you feel like your head is staying back/behind the ball through impact? Put another way, further back than when you address the ball. Thanks!
Thanks guys, is interesting. I am trying to work this out as Gears measures Rory to be 1-2 inches closer to target by the time he reaches the top. I don't understand how this gives him room to swing through?
Watch their video with Padraig Harrington. There is a slow motion video of Rory where his hip and feet extend, then pause before impact to let the upper body continue moving.
Have you any drills or videos about how to correctly rotate the hips. Feel like I'm getting into a really nice position at the top but the second I transition to the left my hips look like they are rotating but the weight shift is causing me to get steep. Hard to explain without showing the video but it's like my left hip isn't working properly Thanks
Good stuff guys. The swing speed is amazing considering how easy Andy swings. I agree with a comment down below as far as filming straight on and not always dtl. Filming a variety of angles is helpful.
What an effortless swing to be getting 170mph ball speed and 300 yards 🤯. I feel like I am trying way too hard to only be getting 270 yards out of my driver. Great video 👌🏽
Hey guys, how do you achieve the low spin? I'm 67 and swing speed in the 93-6 range, cap 3.6 but losing distance, many drives go high with good launch angle but sometimes not staying in the air that long, overspinning I believe. Any tips, thanks.
The 302 carry looked like you released earlier and it had good height, but drew left. The other one that hooked harder left and went lower looked like your hands released even a little earlier.
This is a key part Mike. What I am actually doing is releasing it the same but as I am hitting it later in the arc, the club is more released if that makes sense? That is why the speed is also up.
it seems to me you figured out you were right post golfer (and needed more horizontal force for distance ). I’m not sure if this advice would work for everybody, especially if they were center or left post golfers?
I was doing this for years and bombing it until a "scratch" golfer told me not to sway... been losing 20-30 yards since.. and forgotten how I was bombing it til this video!
I’ll take all of those, please. No sway for me, although I do hit down on the ball… maybe trying the sway thought could help. Worried about skying the ball, just leaving for an Alabama golf trip.
He’s hitting 220-250yds. That launch monitor is full of shit. The reason so many assholes think they can hit 300+ is because the simulator said so. Wake up fuckers, you can’t play golf three times a year and hit monster bombs. You are hitting 220 yds on good day.
Words like “weight”, and “sway” can be misinterpreted by most amateurs. I like the term “pressure”. Your feet will tell you EVERYTHING. Use the pressure from your feet, into the ground, to “apply the brakes”. Your right foot will apply the brakes before you reach the top, and start the transfer into your left side. This then allows you time to apply the brakes with your left foot, and get that slingshot affect from the ground through impact. Watch the long drive guys. People are way too robotic, and static in their golf swing. Power is created through dynamic, and athletic movement of the entire body. If your buddy told you that he would give you $100 if you could throw your 9 iron 100 yards, I promise you that you would turn your body, shift pressure, and create a ton of speed and power naturally. Free yourself up, and make that work in your golf swing. That little white ball scares people STIFF. lol
Because you're in SoCal now and have good warm weather, can swing freely without being bundled up by the cold weather of England LOL and also because you feel SWOLE LOL
Its interesting to note that while you were feeling like you were moving off the ball, you didnt have a consistent start line or curve. Consistenly pulling the ball and hit pull hooks or pull/push cuts, very chaotic flights. I would say if you were looking for more distance and attack angle why would you not just swing around your body more instead of shifting off the ball? Would also note that higher launch did appear but your dispersion also suffered greatly. Some people may enjoy more accuracy over distance.
Whilst you are correct, it is very important to note that this was one of my first sessions. I know have to work hard to get my body used to what I want to do and then accuracy can come into play. For me this session was about realising my potential, by trying the things that I knew could get me more distance. Will probably do a few more videos like this, this year to document my progress, I really hope my accuracy is better by then!🙏🏌🏻♂️😂
@@meandmygolf. well you were definitely smashing the ball so mission accomplished! Wasnt looking to be correct, just curious on the technique used for distance. Ive tried this and it creeped into my iron game unconsciously and was a disaster. Feel isnt real but if it works for you and you can get that accuracy back your driving game will be on point!!
Well, hopefully every golfer watching this video already master perfectly its contacts and swing plane, otherwise it would be funny to advise them to sway the hips in an attempt to strike the ball.............
That and you aren’t doing this by trying to kill it. Not lifting feet and getting off balance. What I’m working on in my game keeping my feet under me. I’m a 5.3 right now and I find my biggest struggle in my game is balance

Yes that could help also 👍🏻
@@meandmygolf. I mean you guys are the best coaches it’s just what I noticed but you probably already knew that lol
Watching 'my mates' has helped my driver get straighter and longer. Drove a green 270 yesterday.
Thank you fellas!
Great to hear Phil!!💪🏻
As others have said, that’s such an easy swing but you’re going at 117 mph. Amazing!
Thanks James. I’m definitely curious to how fast I could ramp it up to.
Love the content, gents. Appreciate the fact that you are challenging yourselves versus just talking a good game. Respect.
👍🙌🙌💯🔥💯
Thanks Jason. Glad you enjoyed this!!👍🏻

Love it Pinn. It will take me a little adjustment to nail it down too👍🏻
Love it gents! I also recommend more side bend at impact, this will in height and regerate more speed.
Thank you for the pro tips. I’ll go and practice and try it out. Been averaging 230 yards 😅and I stand still like a rock
Andy is also super fit, helpful ;-). It's incredible your swing speed is 115 so effortlessly. Fun and helpful video guys!
Thanks Josh. Glad you enjoyed the video.👍🏻
Best advice i can give is you must keep your head absolutely still at all times

Glad you enjoyed it Andy. Yes “weight” can get a little miss understood. Happy you figured it out.👍🏻
I have never seen so much effortless power. Amazing swing.
Thanks Aaron.
I’ll have to say literally this just completely fixed my drive! Thank you 😊
Keep the camera angle face on during the swing instead of down the line. That way we see how much he sways back from address
Very good point, thank you for your feedback🙌🏌️♂️
these are the only two things I think about when hitting driver and they have helped me to find some consistency with the big stick!
Great stuff👍🏻

Still work in. progress but testing it out.👍🏻

If you are swaying etc will you not have a harder time timing it? Two way miss and all that
I not only lift my left heal (as a right-handed player), I twist my foot slightly a little to allow me to to turn my left knee in and load up on my right leg. I also flare my right foot out a little more to allow the turn. If I don't do these moves, I can't turn and become all arms. Bad arthritis in both shoulders and neck limit my mobility greatly.

Love all this and all makes perfect sense. Great work

Great video guys. Can't wait to try it out!
Let us know if this helps Darren👍🏻
Looks like where the latest BBG shot their last video with Dr Scott Lyn
Have you any drills or videos about how to correctly rotate the hips.

I just hit 300 yards with old fashion 2 wood is that any good?
Well done guys 🏌♂️ 😊👍
Thanks Roy!!

When you pick up your left foot onto your toe, where is the weight in your right foot?
Inside, middle or outside of foot?
I don't really want to let it move towards the outside Chris. Middle ideally.
My driver is consistently 180 yds. Im 67 years old. If i cld fly my driver 300 yds fairly straight, consistently, i feel my score wld improve!
Would you recommend this for iron swings?
Not really Mark. A little shift and then rotate is ok providing we stay centred.
Im swinging out of my boots and only getting 230. What am I doing wrong besides needing to grow a sack?
Your sequencing is probably wrong.
it seems to me you figured out you were right post golfer (and needed more horizontal force for distance ). I’m not sure if this advice would work for everybody, especially if they were center or left post golfers?
Is it better to swing smooth and steady tempo rather than a quicker tempo
It all depends on the person. It’s more important to create a good pivot first and then figure out tempo
@meandmygolf OK, I always find I hit the ball better with a slower swing but lose distance
Swing path is shifted right by the move & lengthened & lead shoulder is behind the ball
Great video from the OG’s
Thanks Travis👍🏻
You can load without sway if you narrow your stance.
I was doing this for years and bombing it until a "scratch" golfer told me not to sway... been losing 20-30 yards since.. and forgotten how I was bombing it til this video!
I’ll take all of those, please. No sway for me, although I do hit down on the ball… maybe trying the sway thought could help. Worried about skying the ball, just leaving for an Alabama golf trip.
Amazing! Hope you have a great time, don’t experiment too much, just enjoy the golf👌🏌️♂️
Great swing 👏 👌
302.9!! What a surprise. 33
stack-and-tilt was hampering a generation of great golfers. Sounds a little harsh now that I‘ve written it out, but I stay with this message
i mean Shit man!! how is that so effortless!!!
What is the ball being used?
TP5 TaylorMade
My feel is not shifting forward and just turning around my spine.
Scabby 😂🤣🧅😎
Are you guys speeding up the shot tracer? 280-300 yard carry should stay in the air longer.
He’s hitting 220-250yds. That launch monitor is full of shit. The reason so many assholes think they can hit 300+ is because the simulator said so. Wake up fuckers, you can’t play golf three times a year and hit monster bombs. You are hitting 220 yds on good day.
I think go to the sport center and same swing+15yerds no need expensive lessons 😊
Great
This is the first time I’ve seen you guys not in matching outfits
Words like “weight”, and “sway” can be misinterpreted by most amateurs. I like the term “pressure”. Your feet will tell you EVERYTHING. Use the pressure from your feet, into the ground, to “apply the brakes”. Your right foot will apply the brakes before you reach the top, and start the transfer into your left side.

Free yourself up, and make that work in your golf swing. That little white ball scares people STIFF. lol
Your club path is from the right. Want less spin and more roll you need to path form inside not outside.
Still try to figure out which one of you is Me and which one is Mygolf
Andy is on the way to drive over 310 yards 😊
I think I can get there if my launch can get to 12
Because you're in SoCal now and have good warm weather, can swing freely without being bundled up by the cold weather of England LOL and also because you feel SWOLE LOL
Definitely much better with the ☀️ out 😃
Second comment at my age separating lower and upper is not so easy.
I will be ignoring this advice because I’ve just had a lesson where I got shown I was swaying about 3 inches outside the line 😳
Yes you definitely don’t need to feel this Dom.👍🏻
Its interesting to note that while you were feeling like you were moving off the ball, you didnt have a consistent start line or curve.

What pants are those?
That left hip rotates way too much away from the target and does non efficient rotation without gaining string like effect.
Well, hopefully every golfer watching this video already master perfectly its contacts and swing plane, otherwise it would be funny to advise them to sway the hips in an attempt to strike the ball.............
That and you aren’t doing this by trying to kill it. Not lifting feet and getting off balance. What I’m working on in my game keeping my feet under me. I’m a 5.3 right now and I find my biggest struggle in my game is balance
I would say the transition forward is slow, timing is off.
The number one reason you’re probably not 53 years old with an arthritic back!
Probably because you're playing in the heat
i hate this rory effect
I have a hard time believing these numbers.
Yeh, same here.
Always to complicated
