  • This video is a bit different than all the other videos we made so far. Someone is getting his first golf lesson ever. In fact, this guy never touched a golf club in his life! Jos Verlooy is someone special. Is is participating at the Olympic Games in Tokyo in 2021. His discipline is Show Jumping (horses).
    He is also participating in the Flemmish tv show "container cup" at Play4. In that sports program he has to hit a golf ball with an iron as far as possible. Today he is getting his first golf lesson to prepare himself fot that program.
    In this video you will see someone learns how to hit a golf ball properly. We talk about gripping a golf club, balance, rotation and of course the basics of the golf swing.

      Hi Lisa, no no I don’t think that’s a good idea, I would wait until your teacher tells you what is the best in length and shaft flex 💪

    This video is a true hidden gem. I have been golfing for years, but listening to you explain the basics in very broad terms to someone that knows nothing about golf forces you to remind yourself of the fundamentals. Too often you can become dizzy from instruction thinking about angles, checkpoints, and forces of power, forgetting the key concepts.

    His swing plane is so pure for never playing and he is already turning his wrists over at impact. That's crazy for a beginner to have that feel. He could be very good if he sticks with it. Great lesson and great foundation!!

    I have been playing for 6months and had a lesson, nothing was working, i could swing the club but it was forced and very tense, this lesson has changed my golf, im so thankful you uploaded this video, everything has clicked with my swing, and im on my way to break 100 legitimately, no breakfeast shots etc, playing by the book this year as my golfing goal. Thank you so much and what a wonderful game it has now become to play!!!! 😊🙌🇦🇺

    This was entertaining to watch! I forgot what my first lesson looked like, what a hard game! Keep posting videos like this and any other tips that you have. I still struggle with balance! At the takeaway I pull my body forward and force myself onto the balls of my feet.

    If you want to see something truly amazing, check out Ron Sissons ( a Canadian PGA Pro) giving lessons to beginners and experienced golfers. The before and After is truly remarkable, and the fact that he takes absolute beginners in one hour from terrible to striping the ball is something to see.

  • @TheRausing1

    Great tips! I'm trying to get into golf and never knowing where to actually start. Only extra thing I would have said to him is something that was said to me when I first wanted to learn how to swing, which is to keep my head down and eye on the ball for much longer than I think I need to. I tend to want to see where it's going to go more than keeping my eyes down to ensure solid contact.

    I actually liked this video. From absolutely beginner - to still a beginner, but we all saw that slight improvement. He needs to be congratulated. He's done well, so hopefully he improves!
    My first lesson? June 2021. I'm a newbie as you know, and I have played golf before (roughly once a year) - but you'd call me a 'weekend hacker' (like 40-50+ handicap or even more - and didn't care to do much better). Once my Comp Tennis days were over (earlier this year I decided, sadly) I decided to take up Golf. Fast forward 8 lessons in and my SW-7I shots are extraordinarily consistent (with the odd shank here and there, obviously). Point is, in this three month turn around with lessons and practice, i know when I hit a bad shot, I know when it doesn't feel right, I know when my tempo is off etc etc. I have high hopes for the future, and so do i for this guy learning and improving Golf. Fantastic - and well done to you for being patient. A trait I know that is part and parcel of teaching. Well done. Dann.

    That is with years of playing
    Surprisingly this guy despite being inundated with info is picking things up so well
    Amazing to watch that he can take on board so much when I am struggling with 3 things which are not really that hard all things considered
