    only having 56k subscribers is criminal, the information he provides is immensely beneficial. I’ve been taking lessons for about 1.5 years and then information he gives is worth 10x what those lessons cost. The jump drills have been a game changer, better contact, tight ball flight and easier on the back. Thank you for taking time to do this, hard to not root for Paddy going forward!

    This is some of the best advice on RUclips. Listen to a guy who knows what he is talking about. He has done it. My personal experience matches exactly what he is saying, most of the speed comes from the arms and wrists. So many people try to get speed from the body and turn it is such bad advice. Thanks Paddy. Your passion shows through in your videos. Hope to see a lot more from you.

    I’ll be 64 in December. I played golf in my 20’s and 30’s, not very well. Basically, if I broke 100 I treated myself to a beverage of my choice. My youngest son started playing golf back in March and asked me to join him. My first time out at the range I beat the hell out of my body. I’ve given myself a year to find my swing. I’ve went through, probably ever rabbit hole on RUclips, and there are a lot of good instructors out there. I bought a course. None of them really gave me the, ah ha moments, I’ve been looking for, until now. Prior to stumbling upon Mr. Harrington, I was hitting my driver ~200 yards. After your no nonsense, layman terms videos I’m hitting my driver ~286. I’m blessed, as far as golf is concerned to have stumbled across your instructions. Thank you so much for doing these. Your video on green reading is pure gold. Thank you.

    Padraig, quick hands thrown down early in the downswing before we expode up is a fantastic sequence. You can also see it in Rorys swing.Having watched your video yesterday i took the drill to the driving range and the improved distance and penetration in ball flight was dramatic.Why isnt this taught to amateurs as a fundamental by your average teaching pro? I owe you bigtime Mr Harrington.Thankyou so much Paddy. Robbie Sprague.

These are awesome tips and a lot of them are either opposite or very different from the other "stuff". Ill be getting a swing speed monitor asap, and trying different swings for sure. Thanks Padraig and good luck with the Ryder cup.

    Must admit I tried moving my hips faster for years after a lesson but lost control of my ball and really never gained any yardage! Now I only think of throwing my “arms” down like Padraig said and it’s straight and long and feels effortless! I practice your tip on the range of throwing a ball and jumping looks odd but when they see you hitting the driver suddenly they all try it! These tips you are putting out there are awesome, never more relevant then this one about gaining speed! Thanks for the insight and years of experience and hard work!

I and along with many golfers suffer with early extension and flipping the club. For me these are the 2 best videos i have ever watched on golf, (& I’ve watched a lot). Best of all u know I can trust the content as it’s from a PGATour legend. Thank you so much for taking the time to make all your videos. True gentleman and I’ll say it again LEGEND.

    This makes a whole lot of sense now after my last lesson. I was under the impression that when my coach was telling me to make a faster turn he meant fire my hips faster, which was always a loss of speed for me. He corrected me by getting me to feel that stretch and then turn my shoulders faster, which instantly added a whole lot of distance without too much more effort, actually less effort. I like your explanation better though, so thanks!

  • @zero2herogolf
    @zero2herogolf 3 года назад +3

    13:36 - Paddy absolutely nailed it here. Moving the hip/pelvis completely independent from the torso is guaranteed to lose speed. Once that stretch is lost it's over. Having excellent X-Factor is very important, the stretch created near change of direction must be maintained at least for a while with everything still connected. The move toward the target in the backswing, and the subsequent change of direction, will create an X-Factor stretch, which in turn creates lag both in the wrists and club shaft! 14:08 - The Sammy Snead hip/pelvis move, everyone should learn it!

    I am back again to say Thank YOU Thank YOU Thank YOU AGAIN 👍.
    "body separation " has never done anything for me in term of adding speed and distance. Never learn to use the core to power the swing.
    Now with hip leading the swing while staying connected to body change alot of things for me - feeling of the core firing and need to maintain that stretch in the leading side during the swing. Definitely added distance, striking sounded much more solid. I dont know how much more distance since balls were flying left and right with a huge curve but 2 days on the range showing balls landed and rolled to corners i have never reached before.
    many possitive things i feel but not sure how to word them.
    will follow up when i figured out how to fly the ball a bit straighter.
    Lord Harrington of the swing, Thank YOU sir.

  • @AtEboli
    @AtEboli 2 года назад

    What a breath of fresh air! All we ever hear is that speed comes from the length of your backswing, or from your core rotation- never from your arms and hands. Well, here is the truth from someone who knows a thing or two about the game!

  • @winstonsmith11
    @winstonsmith11 2 года назад

    Brilliant. The stretch across the lead side through the core and chest vs. the spinning of the hips, is the key to useful separation. If you take nothing else from this video, take that and apply it. It's not just a power move. It's a golf move. Maximize the distance between the lead foot and the lead shoulder through the ball. Easy, useful rotation without even trying to rotate. Just brilliant for golfers of all levels.

  • @peterbutler39

    I actually gained speed to 110mph by shortening my backswing similar to John ram. I found it easier to get the in to out path doing that too. I can John Daley it properly with my flex but end up in huge slices as I steepen the club.
