  • This EYE OPENER golf tip will shock you as to how quickly you will be able to implement only 4 SIMPLE driver set up checks to start bombing your driver. I call it the eye opener as it immediately demonstrates four key set up positions that will shock you and allow you start hitting driver longer and higher.
    It's an amazing drill for golfers of all levels.

    For a golf swing that is CONSISTENT, provides a flat left wrist, compression, lag and more. Steve's EUREKA GOLF SWING is now being implemented in 52 countries taking the golfers game to a place that allows the body to turn, the flight to straighten and compression to become a reality.
    The starting place is the "iron swing series" offering the set of the Eureka Golf Swing canes and a step by step tutorial of the full action.
    REMEMBER: as Steve says, "There is a difference between opening your stance and aiming left".

    Took this to the range yesterday.
    Hit 10 drives
    Crushed 8 of them and 6 of those in the fairway. Took it to the course this morning and shot 36/43 for an easy 79. My playing partner said send me that video.
    Thank you Steve!

    @TEKXS00D6 2 года назад +10

    What I learned at 1:47 into this video: "We don't swing up this way (motioning through to the target) for the angle of attack to be positive ... so high launch. We swing with the clubhead level up that way (motioning through and up)." In all my years it has never occurred to me to think of it like that. Brilliant!

    Steve you’ve changed my game mate. I’m down to 7 now from 11. Crushing my irons. One tip you gave previously was posture/set up. Huge changes for me. It’s incredible how much consistency I’ve got. Amazing

    Hi Steve! Absolutely brilliant! Was struggling with my driver as of late and came across your video and eureka open stance golf swing...applied what you teach at the range and was smashing drivers 230+ yds. I'm 65 by the way. So I've subscribed and added your playlists to my favorites! Thank you so much...great practice plan too. And I remember the very important rule...ball on tee😄

    Bizarrely I was actually there trying out this 4 point driving routine and while I didn’t quite hit the bombs you did in the video the results were really encouraging!
    Really enjoying the quality and content of your channel.

    @petercameron8832 2 года назад

    Thanks Steve, your instructions took me from a consistent 12 handicapper to 8 three years ago. So much so that I keep trying something new. Anyway I have strayed from your true path and now am playing off 11: Jim Venetos has captured my fancy- and fancy it is, but so hard to do in my mind. . Golf is strange! This video has me returning to the fold, got within two of shooting my age a fortnight ago.

  • @dancingdavethomas3866

  • @slmmcgee8686
    @slmmcgee8686 Год назад

    As someone who has lumbar disc and stenosis issues from American football and rugby, I avoid adding extra secondary axis tilt at address. My trail hand being lower on the grip accomplishes some tilt automatically/naturally. If I want to add more positive attack angle, I just widen my stance a little bit more than standard. As I continue to strengthen my core, lower back and legs, I may be able to add some extra tilt again. In the meantime, I've been happy with the 275-290 drives I'm able to produce, depending on environmental conditions and strike!

    • @wanderingbrummie
      @wanderingbrummie Год назад

      Well that average driving distance puts you in the top few % of amateurs (average drive for a scratch golfer is just 260 yds according to ShotScope), so I’m not surprised you are happy with it.

  • @tomhester1406
    @tomhester1406 2 года назад

    Maybe a third of my drives hit the fairway, so I am going to take your lesson and tips to see if I can hit more fairways. Good day to you Steve. By the way, you are one of my favorite instructors.

  • @orkayen
    @orkayen Год назад

    Thanks for sharing. In this video, it appears that you follow closed stance. So, not a Eureka set-up?

  • @MaFaKeys
    @MaFaKeys 2 года назад

    I took this to the range amd saw a dramatic improvement in consistency. But…, your shots end up with a nice draw and almost all of my shots end up in a fade. Can you elaborate a little bit more about your grip, the alignment to your target and what you do with your wrists in the takeaway and downswing amd do you snap your wrists before impact? Thanks for the excellent video!!

  • @z-man2343
    @z-man2343 Год назад

    I understand the concept of a flared lead foot to facilitate opening up at impact. However (based on ground force data) too much flare can significantly reduce the ability to push up vertically (post up) off your lead foot, thereby reducing that force to generate club head speed.

  • @lkae4
    @lkae4 2 года назад

    Great setup. I would add a midsize or jumbo grip, tackiest you can tolerate, the stiffest, lightest shaft that doesn't get you wild misses and the lowest spin head that doesn't get hurt your total distance. Recipe for bombs. 😎

  • @starks1974
    @starks1974 2 года назад

    Steve - are you 50/50 weight at set up or are you favoring a little more weight on your lead side? I know you favor more weight on that side for your irons/eureka swing so didn't know if you were doing it here.

      I am a lefty too. I feel like this tip dropped me a bit too much. But, putting my left hand on the side of my leg (but above the knee) and then come in from the side like he demonstrates (keeping my lead shoulder more in compared to my trail shoulder) seemed to do the trick.
