I am Tom Saguto, PGA Member and founder of SagutoGolf. Thank you for visiting my instructional page where you can find how to get on the fast track to improving your golfing abilities. Whether you are a seasoned golfing veteran looking for a quick swing tune-up after an on-course emergency, or a beginner just looking to get the most out of your golfing experience, I am here to help you achieve your golfing goals.
My mission as your swing doctor is simple, to help you maximize your enjoyment in game of golf. Because, let’s face it, golf is a hard game.
My philosophy is wholly based on the student having a fun, meaningful experience in a frustrating and complicated game where potential lifelong golfers either quit because it is too difficult or that they experience some form of swing-related pain or discomfort. I mitigate these problems by focusing entirely on the student’s needs and goals while teaching a golf swing method that ultimately takes stress off of the common pain areas of the swing.

Same swing for your woods
@SagutoGolf Hi Tom, I am a complete newbie. Just started playing for the last 3 months. I have taken lessons but THIS video alone is worth a million bucks!!! I was focusing on way too many things for my swing and your 1 simple technique just helped me solidify everything together. I watched this vid last night and today, at the driving range, I could not believe I've made contact with my ball 80% of the time. A million thanks for giving me confidence back to my swing. Golf is now fun again!!! Cheers!
Listen man, I've never hit so many effortless draws in my life, been hitting the ball so clean and pure since watching and applying the tips from your videos, it's incredible, not to mention curing my constant slice with the driver, these videos are gold
Well done, Phillip!! I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating so well with you. Awesome job incorporating these lessons into your swing!
Thanks for sharing your success and enjoy that beautiful new ball flight!!
Tom
What videos? My swing is in shambles 😭
@chad williams - This channel has plenty of lesson videos. Really, though, the online school is the best place to learn this swing properly and sequentially in a comprehensive, structured environment. Here's a link if you would like to know more about the school - saguto.golf - and here's a link to my free mini-course: go.saguto.golf/

@@SagutoGolf Do you give lessons?
Tom is the best coach online, no bullshit, waffle, complicated jargon. His easy to understand, fun to listen to and the advise he gives works.
My ball striking has improved 10 fold since ive watched his videos. Weight forward take club back untill left shoulder is under chin, replace left shoulder with right sholder the hands follow and you hit crisp golf balls all day
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Jason, and I'm very glad to know that my lesson content and teaching style are resonating with you and providing clarity and simplicity in the muddied, overly complicated, oft-conflicting realm of golf instruction!
Thanks so much for your support in sharing your dramatic ball striking improvement and keep up the great work!! 💪💪

This is the absolute holy grail of golf. The best golf lesson I have even seen. Thanks Tom for the joy and smiles you have brought to my golf game - Sanver
I'm glad to know that this lesson resonated so well with you, Sanver!!
Thanks for sharing your success and enjoyment!!
Tom
Tom, thank you for this! The golf swing has never been so simple until I found your RUclips channel. You're the man!!
My pleasure! I'm glad you enjoyed this episode, and I sincerely appreciate your comments regarding my instruction in general!!
Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Amazing as always Tom
Thanks pro!!
I've commented before how much your videos have helped my golf game. So I'm just giving an update.
Last year my 9i was my 135 club, now it's 150-155. Every club has stretched out by about 20 yards. And I'm hitting the ball so crisp and straight.
I thought maybe it was just at the course I play regularly. But last Sunday I played a course I've only played once before and shot a 78. Tuesday I shot a 74 and last night I played 9 and shot a 38 and my driver is consistently 275-290.
I am amazed and appreciative, I have sent multiple people to your channel.
That's outstanding, John!!
I sincerely appreciate your kind words and support, and I am very glad to learn of your tremendous improvements in distance and scoring. You've obviously done an excellent job digesting the lesson content, incorporating it into your swing, and taking ownership of it.
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!
Tom
Congrats 🎉
Tom, I was essentially a complete beginner last year and have been watching your videos..I shot a 92 today thanks to you ☺️
Wow! That is AWESOME!! I'm very glad to know that my instruction content is resonating well with you.
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and we'll see you soon in the 80's!!!
TS
Tom,
My buddy took me golfing for the first time in April to a public course while I was going through a tough time. With just a few tips from him, after 25 years of never golfing I fell in love.
Your videos have taught me how to swing in a way I can understand and apply. You’ve been the main person helping me on this new hobby.
It’s not perfect yet but I’m developing a consistent and uncomplicated swing with your help.
My older brother and I golfed for the first time together at his country club which is a relatively hard course and he couldn’t believe how good my swing was for being new and not having lessons. Lots of room for improvement but I was PLAYING the game, getting the ball down the fairway, no frustration, no holding up the group, and a great time on a beautiful day. Thank you so much!!! You’re the man!
I’m going to keep watching and improving and will probably be signing up for your website sooner rather than later.
That's awesome, Kyle - I'm thrilled to learn of your improvement and resulting enjoyment!!
Thanks for sharing that, and I look forward to seeing you in the school soon!!
TS
love your vids Tom. Some people have a knack for tapping into the intuition part of our brains. I have been way more consistent watching your tips and really just simplified my swing. Finding an intuitive swing instead of having a tornado of "swing thoughts" in my head makes golf fun. One can get massively lost in the weeds on youtube looking at all kind of "tips" from setup, how to backswing, shallowing the club, how do my hips and feet move, etc. to the point your swing becomes a NASA space launch.... Your tips are a gold mine for intuitive golf. Thanks man! BTW.... take us out on the course for some more course vlogs soon. would like to see some shot for shot stuff from you!
I sincerely appreciate the kind words, Derek, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you and - most importantly - helping you to derive more enjoyment from this great game!!
Here's my course vlog from last year if you've not already seen it: ruclips.net/video/YLVhf0VdWSw/видео.html

Best golf and absolute master at simplifying stuff. “Work smarter not harder” really defines your lessons in general. I have been taking golf seriously for the last year and you truly are the man for helping me out this much

This might be my favorite TS video
Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Tom, I started watching your videos about a year ago and it has made all the difference. This is my swing now. Not all the way back, no seeing the clubface in front of me before I go into my downswing. tilt, and am blasting the 4 iron about 200 yds but even moreso I am hitting it where I want to. I was an upright swinger and your instruction has eliminated my back pain the day after I play. Thank you.
@TheKnowitall - I am very glad to learn that my channel's instruction has benefited your game - and your back - to such an extent!! You've obviously done an excellent job digesting the lesson content, incorporating it into your swing, and taking ownership of it.
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!
Tom
Tom i wanna say you've been super helpful teaching me how the swing the right way in golf as a new golfer. I literally just finished my first month of golf ever at 27. Consistency is still the name of the game in terms of hitting every club well but taking some of your tips to the range and course has produced some amazing shots and makes me keep going. The big one i tried today was using mainly my right arm for the swing of the irons. I was getting them higher and farther like they should go and felt i like was really pounding the ball as hard as i could. Hit a nice 5 iron probably about 170+ with a little draw. Thank you for all the tips and hopefully with time the strokes will come down!
Wow, Daryl - that's absolutely fantastic!! And yes - the strokes will definitely come down over time, and sooner rather than later if you are able to dedicate practice time to chipping, pitching, and putting.
By the way, if you like my channel's content, then I'm rather certain you will really enjoy and benefit from the comprehensive, structured learning platform for all the finer aspects of the swing (and the game in general) in my online school.

no one does it better Tom’s instructions are all you need
and a bit of patience to master
the crazy game of golf I’ve been a huge fan for 2 years
Thanks Richard - I appreciate the kind words and support!!
Be sure to have fun out there while patiently working towards swing mastery! 😎
TS
Excellent video Tom. Well explained the path of the club. For me the forward weight was a real game changer. All other aspects of the back and forward swing was a improvement from my natural swing, but the biggest impact on improving came from the forward weight. We not the same and for some works what you preaching for other work less. In one word, since I'm using your lessons, my game improved from steady average 95 plus to 85 and lower. I'm 67 and this year I got 3 birdies in one game and one week before my first eagle in my life. Cheers and a big thank you from Ontario, Canada.
Glad you enjoyed it, Nick, and congratulations on your awesome improvement (as well as your first eagle)!!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
The best tip I've seen on RUclips. You are a fantastic teacher!! Thank you. Craig
I sincerely appreciate the kind words, Craig, and I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you!!
Tom
Wow @TomSaguto, what a great video...all of them are really good, but this was the climax video for me, if you will!
I have gone through several courses in your online school, read the SnT book, and watched almost every other video you've made...but this one really put it all together for me. I watched it ONE time!...earlier this afternoon, went home to get my sticks before going to my Monday night golf league...while there I incorporated the information I gleaned from the video earlier, making several ball-less swings with 6-iron and Driver (or "D-River). It felt great, compact, and 20 mph faster than my normal swing...so free and relaxed!
Later, in a 2-man scramble, I drove the ball better than I have since I can't remember when, hit or was on the fringe of 8 of 9 greens, and hit a couple hybrids and fairway woods like I never have! It was amazing!
Thanks again Tom! You're the best! And friends, if you haven't taken Tom's teaching to heart, your missing out!!
That's outstanding, Jeff!! I'm very glad to know that this episode connected the dots for you. Awesome job putting it into play!!
Thanks so much for your support and for sharing your success, and keep up the fabulous work!!
Tom
PS: Post this in the members forum and you just might earn yourself a virtual award..... 😎
I watched a couple of your videos on a Friday. The very next day I went golfing and had one of the best ball striking rounds in years. Maybe ever. I was swinging with such confidence. I drove a 300-ish yard green, and my irons were flush every time. I wasn’t thinking about all the technical nonsense that in my opinion has kept me from improving. I love your videos and your advice. Thank you for helping me improve my game!!
That's *AWESOME,* Michael - congrats on achieving that tasty crispy KFC ball striking bliss!! I'm very glad to know that these lessons resonated well with you - excellent job incorporating the instruction into your swing and taking ownership of it so quickly!!
Thanks for your support in sharing your improvement, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!

Your videos have helped me so much! I hit high push-draw iron shots that I never thought were possible and have way more birdie putts than before.
Not so much with my driver, still working that out. I like the thought in this video about swinging the same with driver. I’ll try that!! Thank you for all of your great swing advice
I am very glad to know that you are benefiting from my instruction content and getting that nice ball flight, Joshua. Excellent job!!
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there with all those birdie putts!!
Tom
Phenomenal video, found myself doing something very similar in the recent months. My main swing thought and action was having my trail elbow crease facing outwards and having thr same trail elbow tucked in, seemed to work a treat!
Thanks Cale - I'm glad you enjoyed it!!

Thank you Tom.It took me a little while because I never had the time to practice much but now that I do it is really starting to come together. I took your online course a couple of years ago and would highly recommend. I love how you keep it simple. I also ordered the lag club you recommended would love some drills to do with it if you ever have Time. You’re the best.
I'm very glad to learn of your progress, Pamela!!
Are you still in the school? That's got all the drills you'll ever need, and you can always substitute the LagShot club in any of those to further reinforce your feels.
Nice to hear from you, and keep up the great work!!
Tom
I am not currently enrolled in the school at the present. But still remember some of the drills so will incorporate them into my practice routine. I’ll let you know how it goes.
Great video Tom! I'm excited just signed up for your Golf School. Just want to keep it fun and crispy!
Awesome, David - Looking forward to having you onboard in the school!!
Thanks!
Tom
The humor really made this fun. Thanks for the quality and reminder that thinking less is a good thing!
Glad you enjoyed it, Paul.
Yes indeed - no brain, no pain..... 😎

Incredible advice, easy to understand! Great vid, appreciate it! Here's to striping the fairways!
Thanks Casey - I’m glad you enjoyed it!!
Keep it crispy and have fun out there!!
Good video Tom! I've been a fan of your teaching since discovering your channel early last winter. Simplistic brilliance. Living in Wisconsin, I had to wait out a long winter to put your method to the test. While undertaking a change requires repetition to unseat ingrained "muscle memory" methodology, your method is so ridiculously simple that task is easily overcome. Yes, my old swing occasionally rears it's ugly head, but I can think my way past it, and get back on track. This is your best lesson to date! You lay it all out in simple terms. Keep it up, mate!
Glad you enjoyed it, Richard!

Awesome! I'm glad to know that lesson resonated well with you, Jeremiah!!
Keep up the great work!
Tom
This makes me love golf again. Thank you!
I appreciate knowing that. It's really all about having fun out there with this great game!!
Tom, my ball striking has improved dramatically since I subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much for making these videos. I feel like I had been wandering in the wilderness for the last couple of years. BTW, I just picked up the game at age 50 so I’m still learning. A lot of what you teach applies to people like me being Johnny come lately. Last thing. Course management??? Consider making a video on helping people to break 100 or 90 or 80. Thank you👍
I'm very glad to learn of your continued improvement, Shawn!!

I started stack and tilt in April, aged 56 and having played over 40 years. I expected to maybe have a season of adjustment as this is quite a change. I thought my actual results might inspire people:
1. Lowest handicap 6.8 previous best 9.0.
2. Two holes in 1 - previously none.
3. Three other shots over 50 yards holed.
4. Lowest ever score 67 - 2 under - previous best 68.
5. First ever back to back eagles.
And I feel like I am still only a beginner with this, sometimes I have rounds where my low point is spot on every shot but some other rounds my low point control is a bit loose. So thanks Tom!
That is absolutely awesome, Chris - I appreciate you sharing your fantastic first-year S&T successes!! That is indeed inspiring, and a wonderful testimonial for a body-friendly, consistent, powerful, and low-maintenance swing system that does not rely on timing and impeccable hand-eye coordination.

Tom, you're the best instructor imo. You make the golf swing so easy!
Thanks for the very kind words, Andrew!! Simplifying the swing is part of my mission, and I'm glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you!
Tom
Best golf lesson I ever had, end of. After 6 years without playing I recently joined another club and have been really struggling with pulling irons all over the place. I tried this on a nearby driving range and hit 60 (out of 70) straight, long 3 irons off the deck. I haven't tried this on the golf course yet but I'm now very confident. Thank you Tom. Lip-smacking mashed potatoes and gravy every shot :)
That's awesome, Michael! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing.
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun mashing out there!!!
Tom
I love the comparison videos with you, Hogan and Varner and how you show 5 iron and driver. The only thing I would add is a point you have made in several other videos about lowering your lead shoulder on every backswing. I find that when I lower my lead shoulder on every swing (like Jess Frank describes as "down and in and under the chin"), that my downswing almost naturally returns along the path I make in the backswing.
Glad you enjoyed it, Ray!
I can't speak to everything in every episode LOL, though it is quite apparent that the lead shoulder is working down in all the featured swings here.
Thanks for your observations and keep up the great work!!
TS
Watched this video twice last night, took the technique to the course after a 20 minutes warm up in the net, scored 49 points stableford 3 over par 74 with no wipes (9 pars, 3 birdies, 6 bogeys) with only 29 putts including two 3 putts. My handicap on the day was 16. I was hitting the ball flush all round with a beautiful draw even with the driver. Suffice to say, this is the best golf instruction video on RUclips. Thank you so much for posting content like this. 🎉
That is *OUTSTANDING* - congrats on a fabulous round!! 💪💪
I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play.
Thanks so much for your kind words and for sharing your ball striking and scoring successes, and keep up the great work!!

PS: By the way, since my channel's content is performing well for you, I think you will also benefit from my FREE mini course - “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” - where you can learn some key aspects of the swing system I teach in a more structured manner. Here's a link in case you’re interested in checking it out: go.saguto.golf/
@@SagutoGolfThank you! Would you say that the upper torso rotation on the backswing leads the arms or that the arms lead the body?
Great teaching. Thanks
Thanks David - I'm glad you're enjoying my instruction content!!
Tom
Yup Tom, these training tips are the real deal! Enabled me to start hitting draws for the first time ever. The 3/4 swing keeps the body down.
Well done, Ron - I'm glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you!!

Tom
Tom, Thank you!
Your teaching is producing results for me.
This video of the lead knee movement of Varner & Hogan however, shows the left knee going away from the target instead of down like your other demonstration.
While that wasn't really the focus of this video, Bill, this system certainly allows for some transfer of pressure into the trail side during the takeaway. After all, we are moving the mass of the arms and club backwards during that initial stage of the swing. Some like to sense the dynamic pressure shifts; others prefer the feel of a gradual increasing of weight load into the lead leg from the start. However, in either scenario the key here is that we do not allow our mass - and thereby our swing center and low point - to drift back at any point.
TS
PS: Great to see HV3 notch a victory this weekend!!
Thank you for these tips. They have transformed my game. Much more consistent strike.
My pleasure, James - I'm very glad to know that my instruction content is resonating well with you!!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Thanks for simplifying things as always Tom. I've lost my swing and need a little hiatus from golf, I'll return to your videos when I come back. (Equipment issue, shoulder pain, and generally tired of trying to figure it out, I need some time off). Though I can say the precision impact glove is pretty cool, you would like it.
I understand. Don't be away for too long.
We can always arrange for a V1 Analysis to help you get back on track.

I have fantastic news. After watching this video a couple of times to make sure I actually comprehended everything, I went to my golf club's driving facility and put this swing technique to use. I have never and I mean NEVER hit the ball more solidly and my drives were incredibly straight and I even gained some yardage. I had to constantly focus and force myself to shorten my backswing which became my only swing thought, but when I did my part, everything just fell into place. This video for some reason just resonates with me and it truly works very well. Thanks for the tip. You helped me take a decent swing up at least 2 notches.
That is indeed FANTASTIC news, @M T!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson connected so well with you - excellent job digesting it and incorporating it into your swing.
Thanks very much for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun with your new ball slight!!
Tom
I am always skeptical when it comes to "simple" fixes/ miracle cures when it comes to the golf swing. But I will tell you this swing plain and simple works and is extremely easy to become proficient at. I discover this channel last year but wasn't until late last year and this spring before I began to implement the changes in my swing. I used to (in my teens) get away with poor form by simply playing every day and being consistent that way. But now that I have a full time job, a wife, and a daughter I don't get out nearly as much. The beauty of this swing is that it's truly simple to learn and make it muscle memory. Like I said I don't play as much as I used to and my scores were reflecting that. This year has been a different story. With only a few late season range sessions last year, one range session this year, and 27 holes of golf I can say with certainty that for the average golfer this is the channel you should be watching to correct your swing. Everything Tom is saying is true. My ball striking is the best it's been in 10 years or more and I'm hitting the ball farther than ever with less effort. I am swinging the club easy and have gained at least 5 yards on every club. In only 27 holes this year I've already tied by personal best 9 hole score of 37 (with a VERY rusty wedge game and equally rusty putting). My first full 18 holes this year I felt as though I was leaving a lot of strokes out there and at the end of the round the score card definitely looked a lot better than I had expected. In summary for those of you who may be skeptical, give this a try and thank Tom later. With this swing I see some more personal bests coming for sure. I am already playing better than I have in a decade and I'm just getting started perfecting (a relative term in golf haha) and committing this swing to muscle memory. Thank you for making these videos, they have been a huge help. Effective while being as close to effortless as the golf swing can be!

You're absolutely 💯 I have only been playing golf for a couple of months, but I realized I hit the best shots when I do what you reccommend. At the end of my backswing I already have that feeling that it's going to be an absolute bomb, and it is 9/10. My pro, however, wants me to perform the dance, hip back shoulder down, pelvis pop. I'm way too rigid in my anatomy for that. Simple is the way to go.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction content and teaching style are resonating with you!! And please - just say no to the "dance"!

Great video Tom! I have learned so much watching your channel. Finally, getting the ball to draw. I still can't hit that big push draw to get around trouble like a tree though. Any tips? God Bless!

Nice Tom simple basic. Well done.
Thanks Dion - I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
TS
your instruction about keeping the head still and left arm straight during swing is GOLD! but what i also do is "nose x 3" which is 1. nose just behind ball at address, 2. behind ball at top of backswing, and 3. in the same spot at impact (belt buckle slightly ahead). Weight 70% left at address, thanks!!!
Well, wherever your nose goes your head is bound to follow, so that is absolutely an excellent thought!
Great video Tom and some awesome drives at the end
Thanks Julian - I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Yeah - those we're crushed pretty good....😎
Cheers!

Just that easy! Good stuff
Thanks! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you, and I hope it performs well when you put it into practice!

Tom's the bomb! Sometime later, I fell in love with this guy! Fantastic teacher!!!!!!!! I love the fact that I get to see his swing often. To much ranting, gets in the way. He does it right...! And accurate....#hip moves forward!!! Another great video...
Thanks Frank - I appreciate your kind words and support, and I'm glad you enjoyed this latest episode!!
"Tom the Bomb" 😎
I saw Varner III the other day and thought: "Yes! Tom would approve!"
I guess I'm gettin' what you're preachin'
The good thing is, now I have a model, a system.
I don't look at other great players and think "Maybe I should try THAT..."
Because I know this model works ... and is easier to master.
He's not pure stack and tilt, but ... his swing is much simpler than most: back and forth, right elbow tucked in. Beautiful. Wonderful. Like mashed potatoes and gravy ; )
Indeed, Justin - but what is "pure" Stack & Tilt? The system affords considerable leeway. Consider Charlie Wi, Mike Bennett, and Grant Waite, for example. Three different swings, all well within the realm of S&T!
Yes - I love Harold's very simple yet very consistent and powerful move! Much to be garnered from that.
TS
Great video, Tom. I just seemed to correct most all of my swing flaws after about 5 mins. I thought I was doing this swing, but I apparently not, as I've been all over the place. This also looks like Matt Kutcher's swing .. a model of consistency.
Great - I'm glad this one connected all the dots for you, @DP!!
TS
Ya, just wait till next week. Lol
Can’t wait to try this out
BRAVO & THX‼️👏👏👏
My pleasure, Goldie - glad you enjoyed it!!
Tom
Thank you!
My pleasure, Darleen - Glad you enjoyed it!!
Tom
Thanks, Kirk Cameron.
Excellent stuff
Thanks Daniel!!
Love this video. Working on some grip adjustments (also thanks to another video of yours) along with creating more shaft lean to restore some distances, so this video could not have come at a better time to simplify practice.
Glad to know that, Kyle, and I hope this lesson works well for you!
Keep it simple!!
TS
You can do any style of golf swing with the proper grip
I wish this video was recommended a month ago. I just started watching HV3's swing last week and i've been hitting the ball far better finally. Way less swing thoughts now and easier to improve now that i'm on the right track with a simple repeatable golf swing!
That's awesome, Braylan - it's certainly a very efficient, powerful, and simple move to mimic!!

Your lessons have been great. I love how you have made the swing so simple. Can you do a quick, simple ball placement? Because I have my weight forward slightly in the setup, I still can't seem to get the ball placement correct for a buttery, crispy shot.
While you do have some leeway, Michael, in general once my students and members show some level of proficiency with the swing I suggest that they migrate to a stock ball position that is in the middle of the stance for short irons, two balls inside the lead heel for middle irons, and creeping more forward for the longer clubs - the farthest forward being even with the inside of the lead heel for the driver (with the stance width increasing as we move from shorter to longer clubs). From there they can make incremental tweaks to see how different positions affect impact quality and shot shape. For example, my personal preference for the shorter clubs tends to be a position that is slightly forward of prescribed.

Like a single plain swing. Very cool. Easter to hit it straight and simple. 😀👍👍
Thanks Sherry - And yes indeed - it's a much simpler way to swing the club and achieve consistently crispy results!!
Tom
After having a shocker of a round, over complicating my back swing, hinge, bla bla, I've spent the evening watching 101 "how to swing a golf club"... Now I've just watched this and read the comments and I can't wait to try this! I hope this is the swing I've been seeking!

Went to the range and hit a bucket to try the advice in this video and was really astonished with the results; it really allows me to focus on the low point of the swing and solid contact! I struggle with thin iron shots constantly…maybe a good topic to cover? Subscribed!
Thin (and fat) shots are oftentimes the result of a low point that drifts backwards at some point in the motion, Terry. When executed properly this is a very centered action that enables us to strike the ground in the same spot every time - the first true fundamental of the golf swing.
There's an entire section of my online school dedicated to resolving common swing, contact, and ball flight issues. Have you looked into it?

Very good. So many golf videos and teachers focus on all the moving parts. Where should the right elbow be, and the hip, and so on. If it is to be repeatable, it needs to be comfortable and relaxed, and you get right to the heart of that. I have one other thing I add to what you did, and that is a drill I have used for years to perfect balance. put both feet together, and hit the ball. If you are in balance, you can do it, and the will fly a reasonable distance, perhaps 80% of normal. If you are out of balance, you fall over.
Thanks Carl - I appreciate your comment as well as you sharing your helpful balance tip!
Have fun out there!
Tom
Thank you for the video, your swing videos have really helped me play better golf. What modifications do you make when you’re working the golf both ways?
I'm glad to learn of your improvement, Steve!
Once you have an understanding of the Shot Shaping Grid, it's simply a matter making a few setup adjustments in order to work the ball in either direction. There's an entire course on this in my online school. Here's a link if you would like to know more about the school - saguto.golf - and here's a link to my free mini-course: go.saguto.golf/

I’ve been on the super struggle shank bus for the last 2 months with my Irons. I hadn’t even practiced this yet and took it straight to the first tee yesterday and had the best ball striking round And most fun 🤩 on the course I’ve had in a looooong time. I’m never going back to a different swing. Thanks Tom keep up the Stellar video lessons!!!
That's awesome, @WineHo888!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing on the fly like that!!
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and most importantly - keep having fun out there!!

I really appreciate your goal of keeping things simple. I hate getting to the ball and having 7 things in my head that I'm trying to juggle.
Golf is indeed a very difficult sport, Chris, but if we can simplify the swing so as not to rely on timing and/or exceptional hand-eye coordination, then we can achieve consistently great results without having to continuously work so hard. So we put in the time and effort on the front end to build the swing, and then we can enjoy low maintenance, powerful, predictable, body-friendly ballstriking bliss for the rest of our lives!

Thanks Steve - glad you enjoyed it!
@SagutoGolf I’ve had a rough start to the season and this advice is helping me get back on track so thank you! Was a subscriber of your school years ago and highly recommend it! One thing thats always confused me though is how to work the ball as you show on the range. Is this merely done through set up changes with the feet and club face or doing something different with the hands and path?
I appreciate the online school shoutout, Mike, and I hope to see you back in it again soon. I think you'll be impressed with the new platform, format, and content that just recently rolled out!
The answer to your question lies in ball flight laws. Clubface angle relative to target line is the primary influencer of the ball's starting line, and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature. With a few minor setup adjustments we can work the ball either way without changing our feel for the swing motion. For example, here is a brief shot shaping demonstration featuring a fellow teaching pro when we were attending the Stack & Tilt Instructor Camp together in Miami: ruclips.net/video/IcmKxfLz9EM/видео.html
Embrace the challenge and get that swing back on track!!
Tom
This is something I'm going to try tomorrow. Hit some nice draws. Thanks Tom
Awesome! I hope it performed well for you!

I started trying this swing the last couple of weeks after getting tired of inconsistent iron play. It has been an incredible help in hitting the ball cleaner and more consistent. I just have less going on now. One of the keys to me is not rushing the swing so I have good tempo. The other thing is being more concerned with good contact and not trying to hit hard. Now, my swing probably doesn't look like the video, but the results have been great.
I'm very glad to know that my instruction content is resonating well with you, Nick. Nice job incorporating it into your swing so quickly!!

Harold Varner!!! I play his home course all the time and he grew up 30 min from me he’s a hometown legend !!!
Seems like a great guy, Glenn. I'm looking forward to him breaking through. He's definitely on the cusp and regularly putting himself in contention!
I started playing golf last year. With your tips i was able to start breaking 80. Thank you. You are the best

Good stuff, I’m also seeing the lead shoulder under the chin to finish the backswing
Indeed, Bob - the lead shoulder under the chin is an indication that we have maintained our relationship with the ball and have tilted, turned, and extended properly during the backswing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
TS
Yes life is good when i try this !
Awesome!! Keep up the great work and enjoy the good life!! 😎
TS
Saguto Rocks. Simple..
Thanks @SiJRa - I appreciate that!!
LISTEN TO THIS GUY!!!! JUST FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS!
This is pure gold. This is what every beginner golfer should be taught.
I have only 1 y. experience in golf and discovered this "dead arms" move on my own, a few months ago, it was such a game-changer, then found these vids...
A few days ago my friend came to a range for the very first time, he had a scheduled lesson, but the coach got sick, and the lesson was canceled. I was there and so he won't waste time and give up I showed him this idea.
And imagine this... 47 y.o. guy hits 150 meters with 7 iron like 7 out of 10 shots. After an HOUR of practicing. Yeah, these bad 3 are fats or tops, coz he forgets and tries to sway. But it was really 1 hour of practicing.
I think that coaches and pros do not teach this so that they can charge you for lessons again and again.
I'm very glad to know that my instruction has helped you and your friend, @MrMartwy - nice job not only learning it but also teaching it!!
Thanks for your kind words and support, and keep up the great work!!
TS
Awesome - the best ever
Thanks Stevo!
Great stuff Tom !! at 8:16 are your grips bigger than standard ... just kinda jumped out at me. I changed to your power fade with the driver 2 years ago (power fade video) and it has literally changed my game. Can't miss a fairway and now playing my irons the same. HC index now 8.8 at 65 yrs old ... you are one of the best instructors out there ... thanks again !
Hi David,
I’m using JumboMax Wrap Series grips (X-Large). I personally love the feel as well as how they help to keep my hands quiet through the zone. They’re not necessarily for everyone - and my fingers are a bit longer than average - so I routinely tell folks to "try before you buy."
I'm thrilled to learn of your fabulous progress, and yes - that power fade is a great go-to shot shape for accuracy without really sacrificing much (if anything) on the distance side.
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
I absolutely love this video. I would love it even more if you had some examples from the LPGA 😊😊😊
I appreciate that!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you, and I hope it performs well when you put it into practice!
I did mention Natalie Gulbis in a recent episode, but that was in reference on how not to swing if you wish to enjoy playing great golf in a far more body-friendly way....😎 I will do my best to feature LPGA players in the future when the opportunity arises.
Thanks for your message and have fun out there!
