So many amazing comments on this video… here is an update where I try to take what I learnt to the golf course… enjoy guys! - ruclips.net/video/KZS5ua1hyww/видео.html
From watching this video and employing the counter grip pressure. I was able to drop my score around slaley hall. From low thirties to 14 over. The difference was incredible. Setting the club early in this manner. It has changed my game.
Wouldn’t want to take a punch from Peter…
I’ll give this a try tonight, I’m the same I either hit a rocket or it turns into a hook.. probably due to trying to adjust face with hands and not managing it all the time
Any reason why you blocked me on twitter?? weird !
Thank you James (and Pete) for sharing this coaching experience with us. It was the most insightful thing I've heard in 15 years playing golf.
Best lesson I’ve ever seen, Pete is one scary dude, I was shitting myself for you James that you didn’t say the wrong thing and he would tell you to stand in the corner for 5 mins and think about your answer. Hopefully you will do a follow up video on how you’re swing is going.
I was thinking the same…he’s really scary and intimidating…I think I would have crumbled 😬
@@brianhull5125 lmao I had the same feeling.
I felt bad for James as he comes across as being very strict. I like his no nonsense attitude and asks a lot of questions.
@@acemakerjay Yeah but I mean, the coach wasnt bad at all except when he went into mathematics haha. Overall it was a great teaching even though he had a strong character.
@@edgemasterrlol I have been watching everything I can find on him on you tube and watching them all. I've learned a lot of what he is teaching. The pyramid videos of his are really good. 3 of them.
This is by far the best instruction I've ever heard. Brilliant content, absolutely the best you've done. Great stuff.

Too much talking & not enough hands on instruction.
This instruction has single handedly changed my golf game. For a beginner whos constantly watching videos, listening to Peter Cowen and not just hearing his words is fundamentally on a different level.
Couldn't agree more. Outstanding video! If you got nothing out of that then you should take up another game like darts or archery.
@@ILik3PH0T0 …deeeeeep. Best way to improve is to practice, practice, practice. Regardless of swing shape consistency is the key.
Incredible that you've allowed us to watch this invaluable coaching session for free. Cheers!
I've literally watched, paused, rewinded, and rewatched different pieces at least 50 times. Excellent instruction.
Me too, and I can honestly say I understand absolutely NOTHING!
Same 💯
@@SL0409 you need to be a low handicap - almost scratch player to understand these lessons.
well honestly, not to "undertstand" them. A high handicap player can actually understand the meaning, but he wont be able to put it into action. the mechanic of swing must be very clear already. The difference here is simple: most players, not low handicap, dont hit the ball by putting pressure on it from above. Most players think they have to "push" the ball ahead. That's wrong. Once you start realizing the real meaning of "putting pressure" on it, and start creating different impacts and divots, you can understand the real meaning of this lesson.
I love Pete Cowan's instruction...he really knows...so expect mucho improvement...:)
That’s a coach teaching a proper lesson. Thanks for letting me sit in on this amazing session.
I’ve watched you from Day 1, and never seen you intimidated. Rightfully so.
Much respect for taking this challenge on. Few really good players would attempt this.
Good Job 👍🏻
Thanks buddy
Brilliant
A very detailed but complicated was of saying…. Lock those bloody wrists…
@@richardholgate7849 Is that what you heard? I don't think locking anything in the golf swing is good. Applying equal but opposite force with the hands still allows everything to release normally.
"Your backswing has been around your arse" LOL. I love Pete!
He sees *EVERYTHING* so quickly. Incredible coach. Cowen is a legend in our time. Loved it.
His golfing intelligence is off the charts.
I definitely feel dumber after watching this video. 🤣 but in as good a way possible! Watching him swing a golf club looked painful before this. Now it looks more fluid but not fluent yet but definitely much better.
Every time James said Yeah his face looked like 'No Idea what you are talking about' 🤣
Thats because he didnt! Neither did I.
Brilliant video James, love Peter’s no nonsense approach. As a relatively new golfer I have never heard that approach to the grip but seems obvious now. Would love to see a follow up video explaining the shoulder movements a bit more.
Heroic of you to put yourself out there in public doing this, James. What a teacher Pete Cowen is! Great video. Thank you and well done.
I've been instructing for years and this is the best lesson I've ever seen period hands down. Pete is a genius. Loved him ever since I saw him working with Louie and had him "chopping wood" with the club turned inverted. This is so master class.
Can you explain what he means by loading the shoulder for a fade/draw? They don't go into any detail on the difference
@@GSALG216 higher on the plane - fade, lower on the plane - draw.
Yet, by James own admission, he got worse after this lesson, not better. How is that good instruction if it makes an already good golfer worse?
I'm pretty dumb I guess. To play a fade you need to position the shoulder higher and for a draw lower. I'm lost!
Wow James!
Just F’ing wow!
This video just transformed the way I think about the golf swing. It’s really mind blowing stuff if you really listen to what he’s saying!
I’m going to watch this again, and again, and again!
I need to absorb this and put it into my game.
Thanks, as always, for the awesome content you bring us every day!
This one was special !
🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@JamesRobinsonGolf I've already started to work on this and have even started to pass on these concepts to my kids as well. It's already having a huge impact on my Son's swing (9 years old) .
Well said Lefty, "F'ing wow" sums it up perfectly👍👍
This is absolute GOLD what a lesson - no fannying about straight to the point 💪🏽
What did he say that was new?
What an amazing lesson, definitely puts the saying "let the club do the work" into perspective. Thank you for this amazing video and to be able to gain the knowledge along with you!
I’ve gone back and watched this video 4-5 times since it’s release. The information is so sound and appreciated. Thank you for taking us on the ride.
Peter Cowen is a golf genius! That was intimidating yet reassuring, complicated yet simple, just all around brilliant!
You like that Ken !
James: "Yeah"
A brilliant lesson. The equal and opposite force created in the hands by applying a slight torque to the grip in opposite directions has made a hugely positive impact on my ball striking! Thanks for sharing this lesson James!
Same for me-and I now understand why-because of the stabilising of the face. I don’t know anyone else who has focused on this!
Just stumbled across this video more than a year after it was posted - truly love the part about getting the hands to work in opposition as was described in the video. I took just that piece to the range yesterday and was amazed at how much more control I had over the club head. Still got a lot of work to do and still need to re-watch this video for more bits that i'm sure I missed. Thanks, James, for posting this.
Haven’t played golf for 4 months (injury). Watched this video last week. Shot my 2nd best score ever and came 2nd in the comp, my first 18 holes since 18/12/21. Just makes sense and my ball striking he’s improved 10 fold. Thank you.
It’s no surprise this has had nearly a million views, it’s content is pure gold.
The equal / opposite grip pressure was a huge moment for me, my 7 iron is now creeping into the 180s when it used to be 160s before I did this technique
I did not get the grip thing "opposing fingers" . I she saying 'one hand weak and the other strong ?
@@MrCatsailor My best answer as this worked for me, is to focus on the “squeezing the towel” example. In relation to the grip, you’re not necessarily ringing out water from a towel because the grip pressure would be too tight. However, that same opposing motion in the hands done lightly is what keeps the club face square and it feels like the hands are connected throughout the swing. The “aha” moment for me was noticing that in my backswing, my hands were rolling in the same direction which resulted in the club face being wide open. At that point, everything else becomes hand eye coordination and the club can’t do what it’s intended to do. As I’m far from the expert here and just letting you know how it clicked for me, just pretend you didn’t read this if it doesn’t resonate with you as we all grasp things differently 😉
@@thenextgreat8652 got it...that makes more since
Incredible content - absolutely brilliant insight from Peter! Thanks for bringing this to us James, great stuff.
Best golf youtube video Ive ever watched!! I was terrified, transfixed, anxious, happy and amazed! What a fantastic insight in to the highest level coaching. Well done James!!!!
Nailed it. “Think logically about why that might be”. Sometimes the solutions are so simple, but it’s so hard to realize what your doing wrong in the moment. Good lesson for all of us to take a deep breath and think about what’s happening when we are inconsistent. Hard to do, but thinking back to this video when it does will help a ton.
Absolutely brilliant, an amazing masterclass from a legend of the game, cannot wait to try it. Possibly the best instructional golf video I have ever seen. Greatly appreciated the time and effort you put into your content. All the best.
I’ve watched most of your videos and most of Peter Cowen’s, but i’ve never seen a more concise yet unique way of describing delivering the head, hold the club, moving consistently, or practicing most effectively. Cheers, James and Peter.
Explain it. It all seemed like nonsense.
Fairplay to you James for putting this up
You given everyone who watches your channel a golf lesson everyone can relate to with one of the best coaches in the world. Brilliant 👍
That was simply amazing! A fantastic video, thank you for sharing it, I was glued to to the screen, love it! Great stuff, and thanks to Pete Cowen for allowing it to be filmed, he has given us a beautiful golden egg.
What a legend,great to watch and simple to understand. Well done!
THANK YOU James!
You truly are an incredible person for sharing this with us.
God only knows how much someone would have to pay to get this invaluable lesson and wealth of knowledge.
You truly are a generous man. We all thank you! 🙏
Great respect for you James showing us this video. Realizing that no matter how good we play there is always room for improvement.
Just watched to the middle but already realize... that´s probably the best lesson I´ve attended to so far. Thank you!
Hands down one of the best videos you've ever made James. Completely changes how I think about shaping the ball!
Really?
Could listen to golf coaching all day! The breakdown of the swing and how to be more efficient with the movement! 🤯 great video! 🤙🏻
Best video on a golf lesson I have ever watched. Thank you so much. Just learning proper mechanics. Thank you.
Absolute Gold! So simplistic with zero fluff!!!
Absolutely amazing video James. I was totally absorbed by PC’s method of teaching. It would probably terrify me if I was having a lesson with him, but he is one great golf instructor. Thanks for showing this to us hackers!
Brilliant video James, Mr Cowen is amazing, it would good if you can do a follow up video of putting into practice what you learnt on the course
Thank you so much to both of you. Brilliant! I look forward to giving it a go.
Best golf video on RUclips. 27 minutes of detailed but when broken down and understood basics of a golf swing that blows your mind! As always thank you for the content james
10 seconds of content. Swing high for fade... low for draw.
You are easily impressed.
I cannot tell you how much the 'hands need to work in opposition to each other' learning point has done for my ball striking - that one lesson about twisting the rag has taught me something I never realized or had even heard of before. many, many thanks James :)
i’m also going to be trying this out, i hope i get the same results as you seem to have got 🙂
That opposing grip change the way i hit the ball. I can pretty much direct where my ball is going. No more slice or hook unless its necessary.
James that was an amazing lesson ,your swing was soo much better even after 20 mins . One of the best video lessons ive seen, very easy to understand and realate too.
I didnt see any difference
Hands down the best golf coaching video I’ve seen in a long time. The explanation of the grip twist has resonated with me and completely transformed my delivery. I’ve gone from a rank hook to frozen rope (and a club longer) in the space of one round and no practice. Start line still leaves a bit to be desired. Awesome content James Mind Blown
I’ve been a single digit for 40 years and this lesson changed my ball striking in a month. I look up and the ball is on line. The grip tip is incredible. Really helped my connection between hands and body. Wish I had more time!!
This may be the BEST golf instruction video that I've ever seen. My positions at take away and at the top of my backswing were already pretty good, but his comments about equal opposing forces in the grip was transformational for me since it keeps my wrist flat through impact. Also, his simple recommendation of firing solely from the left shoulder has taken my right side out of the downswing, as it should be. On my first time out to hit balls and then play after watching the video and practicing at home, my shots were more solid and on line with my intended target.
What an eyeopener, brilliant, so logical!!! One is to be able to execute a shot even blindfolded.
This is your best one yet. I could see you had a break thru moment with the grip and shoulder movements and the sound of the strike was great. Could you do a after lesson review on what you came away with? Agin great video.
This video contains so many key insights........ Pete's concept about the shoulders as the transmission of the golf swing is nothing short of genius a true master Pete Cowan. Thx James a year later and still one of the best golf videos out there
Wow...his words of wisdom is worth every single penny. I can listen to his instructions all day, everyday. Thanks so much for sharing this video. I can't wait to get onto the range n try the "natural force".
Honestly the most insightful golf video I’ve seen, brilliant stuff and totally different to all the past pros I’ve had lessons with. 👏
Been trying for years to be less handsie .... would love to see a follow up video on the use of shoulders to assist with fade/draw. How do you interpret it?
Yes definitely !
I have been using the opposing hands idea for 2 weeks and it’s great. Really keeps club face square. Love it.
I watch this every few months as a refresh. Love this video
Thanks to Pete for allowing us to watch this. That was absolutely f@*#%ng brilliant. A genuine Masterclass!
Nothing new
It was essentially swing high for a fade and low for a draw.... 25 mins to say 10 seconds of content.
Pete loves the sound of his own voice.
It was just amazing how Peter Cowen watched you hit what 5,10,15 balls and had your swing sussed. Thank you for having the humility to Peter analyze and give you instruction. You will only get better. Chris is in trouble!
He had it sussed after he hit 1 ball i think
@@TheTraditionalGolfer lmao
@@TheTraditionalGolfer He had him after he gripped the club.
Masterclass in golf instruction. Brilliant. Thank you so much James
One of the best videos I've seen! Great instruction linking everything together in the swing. Awesome!
Good Lord, James... this is possibly the best video you've posted! It's made me completely rethink my swing. It's gone into my saved folder and I'll be referring to it often and putting it into practice! Thank you again for this!
Yep... same here. Straight to the saved folder.
Thanks for posting this. Couldn't be easy to have an elite coach giving you pointers and correcting swing flaws for the world to see but glad you did. What he said makes so much sense, almost too much sense, and it isn't rocket science. Knowledge is King!
Thanks again for your great videos.
Appreciate your time
One of the best teaching video's I've seen on youtube..... hopefully you can get Pete Cowen on down the line...excellent!
I also have a disc problem had X-rays 2 days ago used this swing using the arms not the body and huge difference now shooting in the 70s with no back pain,fantastic to watch your lesson and look forward to your results and thank you for asking the question on how to practise it which I can do at home and on the course between shots,better chipping and putting and I will break par in the near future.Look forward to your follow up video.
I watch every morning from the states and this is hands down the best video you’ve made. Thank you James.
Thanks buddy appreciate that!
I do as well and I agree 100%.
Great video. Method works a treat. Just short of a par 5 in 2 when normally a 8 or 7 iron 3rd shot. Finger pressure in my putting grip meant I missed nothing under 6ft. What a transformation for a 69 year old.
I went from playing the best golf of my life in the early summer yo the worst in years this fall. This just helped me put into context what I’ve been doing wrong. What incredible insight!
Adopting the different grip (and swinging higher ) has transformed my ball striking-from planning to give up last night to rejoicing in the huge difference this morning. Thanks very much James for sharing this!
This was quality James learnt so much from that. I struggle with a “around your arse” backswing as Pete called it 😂. Would love to see a follow up video of this of you practicing it and how it’s developing
Agree
Yes please, my backswing is also very flat. Not sure if i can change.
@@willemdewaal1127 same here.
Great stuff James! I wish these ideas could be better related to us average golfers trying to improve our games. Could you do a followup to better explain the feelings you were trying to achieve. Thanks again for the content.
It's been a while since I've seen a video that has seriously made me think about my swing and rethink how to hit consistently. Brilliant content James and appreciate you sharing!
Saw this on Friday night and practiced the principles that Pete shared and the next morning shot the best game of my life on a difficult course which I played only the second time. First time I finished with the same ball and hit most my shots where I wanted it to go with no wild shots to either the left or right. Face control allowed me to hit the most greens in reg and was in less trouble than usual. Kept getting praises how easy I seem to be hitting the ball with no effort but getting it long and straight.. everything that Pete touched on is trully an eye opener from the grip to how the club should work on the downswing. Thank ypu so much for this excellent video!
Came back from a golfing session, had the most effortless session I have ever had !!!
Ended up making 82 (+10) at 26.8 handicap
Sounds like your handicap is banjaxxed😂
That is seriously impressive 👍
I’ve been playing for most of my life (I’m 56) and am a mid single digit handicapper. Therefore, I am highly skeptical of “new” swing methods. What sold me straight away was how quiet James was. This is a guy who knows golf and if the gears in his head were moving that much then I knew there was something here. Like most of the other comments here, I’ve watched this video multiple times. It has so much info in such a short amount of time that I want to absorb it.
Such as?
@@beniteztheconman such as in the video
What an incredible guy Pete Cowen is, I could listen to him all day. Extremely insightful!
This is the best golf video I’ve ever seen on RUclips and by a lot.
Watched it three times. Just got back from the range. Unreal ball striking. Best of my life and I’ve been playing for 40 years
Thank you for sharing this with us James! That was definitely a master’s class. In an upcoming video could you teach us what he was having you do in the fingers (opposing force) during the backswing? I didn’t quite pickup on the exact mechanics of that.
If I understood him, think of the club grip as the towel. Twist the fingers of each hand inwards against the twist of the other hand. This wrings the handle, increases control of the clubhead and locks the shoulders in. The whole lot together creates more consistent striking.
You cannot miss when you swing with your hands opposing and you strike the ball, it's uncanny!
Think of a “Chinese Burn”. As you’re looking down, twist your left hand clockwise and your right hand anti-clockwise. Not excessively. Just enough to feel your grip stronger than before. You’re not looking to strangle the club. Just hold it as normal and then move each hand around 1cm. You’ll feel it when it’s right. You’ll instantly feel your grip strengthening without the need to grip harder. Once you get it, you will have a stronger grip that doesn’t need grip strength or conscious effort.
@@fedup3449 doesnt it make you have a really tense grip and swing?
@@beniteztheconman It describes the process. It doesn't mean you have to wring the crap out of the club.
That’s a fun way to start a lesson, “you have no face control”. Very interesting session. It’s amazing how many different ways coaches teach the swing. This is certainly one of the more clear approaches.
This is what I wish I'd get every time I paid for Instructions. Nothing drives me crazy when I just get complimented the whole time. Like tell me more man, be honest here I'm paying for honesty
Exactly Kuzmania
Clear? It was so not clear
Absolutely the most practical and insightful golf swing video ever. Brilliant!
Fascinating to hear him quote Sevvy. So great to listen to Pete explaining so easily why the fingers must work in opposite directions. I’ll have to try it.
This is incredible! It sounds so "easy", but we need to just get out of our own way. I can't wait to practice it.
i tried this the same day and babby draws and fades on demand very much improved. i think that the opposing grip force very important for face control. maybe honeymoon period but , i hope not.
Pete Cowen is amazing! Thanks James! Would love to have a progress report and a potential follow-up with Pete.
I learned all this myself working on my release last week at range but he describes it so simply.👏👏👏👏
I can see why Pete Cowen is a legend in Golf instruction. The simplicity in explaining natural forces in the golf swing is unmatched. Thank you, James, for sharing this video
Incredibly clear instruction.
Watched this video 4 times now and find it more interesting each time.. probably the best coaching video I've seen on RUclips. Need a follow up to find out if your consistency has improved grow it. Pete is one scary teacher🤣
Thanks buddy. Appreciate your time
Thank you James, This guy is no joke. Still trying to Comprehend his philosophy...!!👍👍
Just an amazing lesson! Great stuff @James Robinson Golf. Took this logic to the range today and such a transformation!
I have watched hundreds of videos on golf but I can honestly say this is the best and most informative I have ever seen. Thanks I will save this so I can come back to it time and again.
Incredible video. Wish I could have Pete just show me how to properly load the shoulders so I know exactly how a draw, neutral, and fade fell. That way I could actually practice them and know I’m doing it right.
Start by looking at your backswing in a mirror, and place the triangle of your arms, so you can see your shoulder in that triangle, then make adjustments for a fade, higher and draw lower. It's a start, lol.
Class, fascinating… Pete seems a bit grumpy though 😂
I think this is just his personality. He'd be great military man. No nonsense. No BS.
The video was exceptional watching Pete Cowan sharing his knowledge was absolutely amazing.
My first time watching or listening to P. Cowen. Pure WISDOM and experience! It beats books and technology every time.
It's like listening to Yoda explain The Force😳
Great video James. In your next video - and after you've ingrained the feeling - could you please go through this again for us viewers, especially this shoulder movement. I must say at the end your swing was looking more fluid... Great job!
Yes - James please do this
Good work! James, that swing looks so much more natural than your normal swing. Would love to see a follow up video to this to see how it is working for you if you have continued down this route.
One of the best lessons I've ever seen on RUclips. Very insightful how to practice.
This is by far one of the best instructional videos I’ve seen. If you have a moment, would you mind explaining a bit more about the loading of the shoulders? I couldn’t quite tell the difference between the fade and the draw. Was the fade more vertical and the draw flatter?
Was hoping for a bit of insight into the shoulders as well. Kinda wondering about the initiating with the shoulder muscle.
Me too! Same question.
That's what it looks like to me. Kinda makes sense too as gravity and the natural pull of the club when flatter is going to in theory bring the club in to out for the draw and vice versa.
I was the same. I struggled with the difference in the shoulders but it seemed to work. Is the clarification in the follow up?
Absolute genius, I've watched Pete hit balls up at his place and he's unreal 😎
this is probably the best golf lesson video on youtube. thank you for uploading it. amazing.
I came across your videos by chance the other day and I’m hooked finding them both entertaining and informative in equal measure. As others have commented the lesson with Mr Cowens was an eye opener. I’m 67 and until two years ago played off 9 but now crept up to 11 having lost distance and a draw! Having watched the video I went straight to the driving range to put into effect his teaching. My yardage and draw are back. So many thanks for putting this out online. I would ask for a follow up to see how to fade the ball 🤞as I couldn’t quite see how this is done. Regards.
I can only imagine what it was like to talk with Einstein about math 😂
This is CRAZY!! I went to the range and did the grip twist thing and it completely changed my strike quality along with increased compression of the ball. Hands down the best tip I’ve experienced in a very long time!! The amount of control you have with this technique is incredible.👍
Dont believe you
@@beniteztheconman I pity you.
@@citanullunatic4084 Why because a 24 handicap grips a golf club too hard?
@@beniteztheconman I'm talking to you.
@@citanullunatic4084 oooooh
I’ve started playing golf again this year after a 10+ year hiatus, and I’ve seen this video at least 10 times since it was posted. I keep finding gems that didn’t click for me in previous viewings. Initially, I was trying very hard to understand the mechanics of it, but what’s resonating with me the most after a season under my belt is the last bit about practicing without the ball, where you focus on the right movements instead of trying to beat the ball with the same deficient swing. I’ve been practicing this for the past few weeks where I hit less than 10% with balls, and it’s made a tremendous difference. My off season will be primarily focused on this.
This video has dramatic impacts on my game I now have a bread and butter baby fade off the tee!! Loving it!! Thanks
