I usually don’t leave comments on these training videos but I was super struggling with hitting thin shots and was never feeling solid contact even though I hit straight. I started using flextion in my lead wrist and wow instantly fixed me I’m hitting it further now with half the swing length it’s amazing. Ty so much ❤
I realized, people watch your videos in order to stop watching your videos LOL. Super helpful, Just broke 80 for the first time last week, and yesterday shot a 75! Thanks for all the tips Alex!!
I am 78 and have been watching your videos for awhile now and they have helped my game tremendously. I am starting now to break 90 often with my handicap going down slowly. Thank you for the videos as i am now playing better golf than I did in my younger days..
This was just what I needed. I have been hitting my shots a long way left. I took these tips to the range and was hitting longer, straighter shots immediately. Thank you!
@@AlexElliottGolf that's the plan. This really helps. I started at age 4, i'm now 39. I feel like I should be better but my swing has held me back. Early extension, coming over the top. You mentioned your lead shoulder when focusing on keeping your trail elbow in front of your trail hip was like a light bulb turning on! Because as I have been working on my swing over the last several months, I have seen my lead shoulder go up and my lead hip going towards the target -- almost like the hips stop turning/rotating and then the waist moves left and the lead shoulder up -- just like you demonstrated at the beginning of this video! I love it. I'll report back :)
@@AlexElliottGolf Recently the L to L drill has helped me the most. If I try to think about wrist positions I am way too slow. L to L or throwing the club helps me most, but of course as you say the hands must win the race.
I’m 48 and cannot and will not ever be able to compress the ball like this. I have moved the ball back in my stance like 6-7 one ball behind center and hit 7/150 6/160 and so forth. Only thing I can do. Been trying for 20 years
Big fan here, your videos have really improved my game but... your slow mo shows that due to the shaft flex the club head is beating your hands or at best dead even. so are stiffer shafts needed for irons? or less deceleration on the way down? Slower at the top and accelerate through the ball to prevent the shaft flex effect I am 60 years old with slow club head speed and use senior flex on all clubs, but I do the later due to the whippy clubs I prefer at the top I only think about the wrist angles being correct and elbow tucked in and do not even think about speed until hand are at the right thigh ( 10 handicap, so not qualified to teach, just my 2 cents)
What is happening in this video? I know I didn't take any mushrooms. It was animated, then a green screen, then I saw your shadow and footprints, and how did you get access to Augusta National? 😂
*New way of thinking about releasing the golf club! This is the BEST & easiest way to understand how to hit your irons longer*
Alex, your wave hi tip from another video was the game changer for me. It stopped me from going OTT and I’m hitting crisp shots now. Mahalo!
This is awesome to hear!!

Thank you means a lot 🙌🏼❤️
Hand having a race with the club head is the best fuckin explanation I’ve heard. Makes sense finally. 👏👏👏
Love to hear that!!!

Fantastic! So happy to hear that the videos are helping you lower your scores

Love this!!
This was excellent quality instruction, Alex. It reminds me more of what you were doing years ago when I first subscribed to your channel.
Awesome, thank you so much Richard
Hey thank you so much!! This explanation is world class ❤ love it and will put it to practice as soon as I can!! Great!!
You're so welcome! Thank you Susan
This is another banger. This is going to help me a ton. I’m a 5 handicapper with an early extension. This is gold.
I hope that this helps! I want to hear those scores dropping next 👊🏻👊🏻

Wow!!! I love the way you broke this down👍 Will definitely work on this, thanks so much🥰
You are so welcome!
That’s my course La finca !!!! If you can play Las Ramblas , Colinas and Vista Bella
Brilliant explanation 👍🏻
Glad you think so!
Love this brilliant 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I appreciate the different feel options. Handle dragging may be a feel that works for tons of people but it hasn't clicked with me.
Let me know which works for you!!

Bro, you remind me of Simon Wilson! Thanks for your tips.
Haha, thanks! No problem i hope this one helps you

exciting great video
Thank you
Commented too soon you did play Ramblas beauty course
the hands always win the race. I think about that often
Yes! its a good concept for sure
What is missing is how do you initiate the swing to accomplish what you are describing? Should you start with a forward press? Please let us know.
Yes forward press!!🙌🏼🙌🏼

Less deceleration on the way down for me! - Appreciate you tuning into the videos too, thank you Peter
That's just a camera artifact. The shaft doesn't actually bend that much.
Golf is hard.
It sure is but I hope that this helps
got some bling on ur wrist there bretheren... no wonder you are hitting down on the ball....
😂😂😂

😂😂 Hope it helps
Good old saying: there is always a race between clubface and hands which the clubface never wins
Haha yes
your voice over is so weak that its inaudible, if you can improve it it will help the viewers , Mansoor
