Effortless Golf Swing - How to transfer your weight in the GOLF SWING
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 мар 2020
- How do you achieve an Effortless Golf Swing? - One way is to learn how to transfer your weight in the backswing and the downswing. I personally love this drill. Its wonderful at getting the all important feel of what you should be doing.
Part of the drill I took form world long drive champion Kyle Berkshire. Don't worry though you don't have to have his physical body to make it work...I promise 😁

ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On RUclips and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

Been playing for 50 years. This is the best drill to help me readjust my swing. That’s Danny. Teaching Pros need to use this.
It’s quite simple isn’t it
Hi Danny - there has always been something missing in my golf swing, that is until I came across this lesson yesterday. I've always known my weight transference was an issue and I was never able to get the sequence quite right, that is till now. I've just been down to the range and WOW what a difference. Never have I hit so many balls consistently from irons to hybrid to fairway woods to driver. Without trying to hit the skin off the ball my distances dramatically increased, it just felt so natural. I cannot thank you enough - may I suggest you re-post this lesson as I'm sure that I'm not the only one that has this issue - either way keep up the good work - thank you again
Mr Maude,
I want to thank you for the down to earth, simple and straight forward instructions! With three episodes for Seniors, I FINALLY understand the EXACT elements of the golf swing!
Your drills really improved my swing which improved my contact, distance and control!
I have been playing for 5 years and now KNOW how to swing AND can “feel” when that swing is correct! I have added consistency, distance and accuracy! Can’t wait now to get out and play!
Thats amazing to hear Wayne, thanks for taking the time to share your results
I must admit Danny, a few of your drills/videos have been absolute game changers for me this winter. This one, the one handed swing and you did a video about the take away a while ago. They've really helped me piece things together to sort out my ball flight. I'm looking forward to getting on the course this year!
Thats great Robert, I hope this helps too, have a great weekend
The ground up is so important when learning to play. I learned all too late that focusing on arms, shoulders, plane, etc is pointless if you haven’t figured out footwork first. Great lesson Danny!
Absolutely Sean, much of what goes on above is created by what goes on below
I was an 8 handicap many years ago. I stopped playing for the past 4 years. I have been playing again for past 3 months and my game is horrible. I could no longer feel comfortable with the weight transfer. I had zero power, was very inaccurate and was hitting fat and thin shots. I watched this and went to the range today...and it was a miracle. I was super consistent. No more fat shots. I had my old power back. I put 6 balls in a row within 10 feet of a 120 yard pin with a front bunker that I had to fly 115 to get over the back lip. Unreal. The power and high loft on my irons is back. Thank you so much. Golf is fun again.
Good work Danny, I realised that in my efforts to follow instructions about alignment, releasing the wrists, disassociating swing from the body, I was not moving my body much at all. Did a bit of practice in front of your video, with the concept of corkscrewing your weight onto each foot, has helped me heaps. Thanks Mike.
Nice one Danny! I like your back to basics videos like this, great reminders to help us along the way to improving our game!!
Thank you, hope it helps you coordinate the golf swing and improve your ball striking
It’s the highlight of every Saturday, to wait for this weeks drill, I simply love you drills especially the one with open stance/Ball way back in your stance for better contact/compression, only one thing about this drill it’s a little difficulty for me also to-get my body true, I guess it’s easy for arms to take over???? Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend
well Im really happy to be part of your Saturday too 😁
It is indeed Michael, it's a game you play that you must trust your body to work out
Danny you are by far the best instructor on RUclips your explanations are clear and concise and your drills are easy to implement. I have dropped my handicap from 15 to 9 by watching your videos. Keep up the good work and thank you for not scrambling my brain with complicated thoughts. 👍
Thats amazing improvement Ray, so pleased for you
Brilliant, as usual, Danny! Your videos are always an important part of my week. Cheers, Mate!
Always good to speak Bill
Danny, your videos have helped me so much. You are the only one I will watch! Thank You.
Danny I haven’t played golf in 15 years and have the bug again. It’s very hard to get a balanced feel after that long. This is gonna help tons. Thanks for making it easy. I already feel better
This is similar to your Vroom and Vroom video. I love them both and will use them when I get clearance to swing the clubs again (had heart bypass surgery 4 weeks ago, so I am restricted in my various activities....
thanks danny, this change my golf swing a lot!!! i do feel like i'm swaying. but in reality the feedback are solid impact & free flowing body motion. i even can speed up my down swing without any doubt feeling. thanks, cheers!
Hi Danny, I love your videos. They have inspired me to overhaul my swing aver the last couple weeks. Your videos combined with Ben Hogan's book - 5 lessons have made me think about it in a whole new way. I'd say it's 75% mental right now, although I can feel the weight transfer and whip action. I can't wait to take it to the range this spring.
Thank you Chris, spring can't come soon enough
Love your vids! I do this while I'm warming up, first the left arm swinging freely and then the right. Get my swishes in the upswing. Now, when I have both hands on the club, not so freely. Akways learning!!
Great warm up Michael, ask yourself what interferes with the flow
This is the best ever instruction I had in golf. Tried the drill for a few days at home then grab my 6 and 5 irons out on course today, which I never had the confidence to use, both work wonderfully.
Thank you Danny!!
My pleasure Bill, appreciate the feedback...stay safe
Danny, Just love your videos and teaching methods. You have a wonderful ability to break things down presenting them in a way that's easy to understand. Your drills then reinforce the methods that you are want your readers to learn and use. Of all the videos and multiple lessons that I've had.....I've learned the most from your video instruction. Many Thanks.
So pleased the videos are helping Francis, gives me lots of encouragement to keep on producing
Over the winter I have been working hard with my pro to improve my game and get out of old habits. Its a process of several steps forward and invariably a step or two backwards, usually to my old habits. One is all arms and not turning properly and my mind goes to mush and I cant remember all that I had learnt. All I have been able to do is walk away and come back later. Just tried the shift push in the garden and it really worked in reinforcing the correct turn. It was so simple Thanks Danny
It can be really simple David. Learn to trust your natural instinct to learn. Trying to think about how to get the swing correct too much can lead to paralysis by analysis
Absolutely has helped me with my full golf swing .I have never been able to follow all the way thru . Tried this at the driving range and saw an immediate difference . My fiancee did video and I immediately saw the change .Thank you
Well said Danny! This is a great way to develop both the twisting and weight transfer that is needed to create natural effortless power!
Caminiti Golf thanks for taking the time to feedback
My teaching pro put me on a balance board to give me this feeling of weight transfer. I just found your lesson videos and I find your teaching style very helpful. Good job Danny.👍
Just found this video & it really helped my game, I was basically swinging like your student was. Seeing this video & practicing it over & over I am striking the ball with improved distance & accuracy as well. Thank you for such a great lesson ,it is one that I will continue to work on.
Love to hear how it goes James
Same problem here: always tied to hit all the correct "positions" while swinging "around my spine" - felt like a robot... this drill gave me the "feeling" versus the "positions". Took to driving range today - best ball striking session ever. Danny Maude - you are a genius!
Amazing! Well done
Hiya Danny, the simplicity of this explanation is overwhelming. Brilliant sir. After a pretty serious accident 8 years ago which kept me away from golf for 2 years I lost a lot of my swing and I made change after to change to try and get back to my low single figure level. No chance. I couldn’t see why there was a complete lack of consistency, loss of distance and erratic ball striking. I visited a local Pro whom I’m friendly with and straight away he spotted no real rotation and, therefore, no transference. I thought that turning and clearing etc would worsen then pain so I guess subconsciously I’d stopped this. Ive been working on this for a while now and it’s returning and the pain is actually less than the “Steve” rigid army swing you described was creating. Again thank you Danny for your fine efforts and brilliant videos. Good luck you
Thank you Paul, great to hear things are improving for you 😁
No matter how consistent I am, there’s always a shot that goes awry during a round and this is one of them. Lack of the correct movement has me digging the club into the ground or pulling the ball wildly right (I play LH). This is another super tip. Thanks Danny and keep healthy everyone.
Seamus Toomey you too Seamus, hope the big C isn’t affecting you too much
Hi Danny, really like your lessons and watch them regularly. But this one is a real non brainer. Simple excercise to learn an effortless swing. Keep on going. Cheers :)
Yes, I love how this helps you to feel how the body moves. It can feel strange at first but that's usually because we are just stuck in an old habit
Hey Danny. Just started playing golf. Your videos have helped me so much. Love the amount of detail you put into every single video! Thank you so much!
You are very welcome
As always a different view about the swing. Thanks a lot
My pleasure, hope this helps your ball striking
My miss hit with driver is a strong snap hook and now I understand why. I get stuck or stop my weight shift. Guess I'll work on pivoting on my left hip more and remember to rotate my upper body thru the shot as I release to the target!
So I spent the whole of the past month trying to break down the mechanics of the swing and how to to get a smooth repeatable swing and I came to the conclusion the golf swing is like throwing a ball and the body swings round with a weight shift. and that body motion and weight shift is exactly what you a describing here! so much more smoothness in the transition and consistency has shot straight up. I totally agree with this message and really believe this exercise is the foundation of a repeatable easy golf swing! good stuff danny! and also funny how i come up with my own theory and conclusion and this video with the same message comes out haha
Edwin Chan brilliant, thanks for taking the time to comment Edwin
I played yesterday trying this and it has changed my game! never hit my irons better, great video 👌🏿
That’s awesome Jamel, thanks for sharing
Danny. Thanks so much for the weight transfer drill. Took it straight to the practice range and worked so well. Hope it does likewise on the course today. It seems so simple. Tez from Aus.
Terry Mitchell thanks Terry, let me know how it goes 😀
Excellent description of the golf swing. When the rain eventually stops I will go and try that. Cheers
Robert Bernard perfect the golf course has to be one of the safest places to be right now
Absolutely love this drill. I have been struggling to get the right feel for the correct sequence of turn and weight transfer. When I tried this drill I got it! Thanks Danny
Peter Don-Duncan I must admit he is good at making this look easy Peter but you’re right it certainly is a fantastic drill and very easy to feel , I hope your game is getting better like mine because of Danny peter 👍🏼🏌🏼♂️
👍
Well done Peter, not sure about you but many of my clients can't quite believe how much they feel they have to move to correctly transfer their weight
I thought I was shifting weight and coiling alot but my pro wants me to do even more! I agree that it is much more than perhaps most people realise. The problem I had was the rhythm and sequencing of all this through the full swing. Danny's brilliantly simple drill just makes so much sense and the penny finally dropped for me. I still need to work hard on improving the sequencing but Danny's drill has given me the mental picture and feel that is needed.
Peter Don-Duncan that’s great to hear Peter, keep up the good work
Thank you once again Sensei Maude! Wish I had this one for my last visit to the range, I'm going to try and get out there today/tomorrow and give it a go.
Perfect, keep me posted and let me know how you get on
My name happens to be Steve too and this was exactly what I was struggling with too! So focused on not moving that it was all arms... so excited to try at the range next time! #mindblown
This was probably the best lesson I’ve learnt. I went to the range and started doing this and the compression and hit was amazing. The ball flight was fantastic and it felt effortless. The other lesson was about keeping my back to the target for a little longer. Awesome Combo. But... its easy to forget. I went to play today and couldn’t do it consistently. Danny please advise drills to help with this feeling. I have never hit the ball better when i keep my back to the target for a split second longer and do the foot pedal turn. I want to train my brain to do this naturally. The urge to rush the downswing throws everything away! Thank you for the great videos!
Keep working in these drills and the feelings will come. 😁
Morning Danny,you,ve just answered aproblem I have,great video,,Cheers !!!
Thank you love to hear how you get on,
This is very helpful. I knew I needed to do this, but I couldn't figure it out in such a simple & rhythmic way
Fantastic Danny this is the first time I have felt the turn! Very much needed for this 86 y/o body.
Thats brilliant David, well done
Saturday, and another nice video from Danny 😀. I agree with Michael Andersen - highlight of the weekend! And the sun is shining today, so let`s go out for a ”push and swing”. ❤️
Im really happy to be part of your weekend too 😁
great drill Danny, I'm really struggling with driving through with my hips, and getting distance, this will hopefully help
It promotes a really great feeling
This drill along with the "How To Hit the Ball Then The Turf With Your Irons - Magic Drill" ..I don't think I have hit irons so nicely...ever. I play an old set of Mizuno T Zoid blades and my 7 iron is 35 degree loft. After these 2 drills (yes I spent a few hours on each drill at home before going to the range), I have brought down the ball flight from 110 ft to about 90 ft, the control is amazing, the shot shape is amazing and the power is effortless. I was hitting my 7 iron as far if not a bit more and felt like I was not even trying. i can hardly wait to get a few more ranges sessions in because this feels like I can hit it as hard as I want with little effort. Thanks for the great video series!
Absolutely fantastic, Danny.
I have to be honest, I've been learning to single plane golf swing from videos about Moe Norman and it has transformed my game. I am now making solid contact all the time and the ball flies perfectly straight and the biggest and best part there is no pain in my back after a round of golf. I'm 58 and I shoot anywhere from 90 to 100. Now I have been shooting my lowest of 84 and 90 is now my top score.
Thats pretty good going, well done
Thank you for this drill. I do this every time after first time I saw this video, and it helps me to feel the control of weight shift. It improved my game. Well I knew about the weight shift but did not allways do it like this. It is very importent.
Thanks Danny this is really helpful, with some great results. 👍👍
I've been watching golf videos for years and have changed SO many aspects of my game, but THIS video has helped me THE most out of every video combined! Maybe wrestling and baseball set me up for failure with a golf swing, but this simple drill has changed my entire game! Thank you!!
That great to hear 😁 thanks for taking the time to comment 👍
Love your videos. Keep em coming. 🇨🇦
Allan Lackman thank you, hope the snow is melting your end so you can get back out on the golf course
Great video once again Danny. Believing in weight shift to allow a solid swing is sometimes hard to achieve. This helps alot!
Yes it can often feel excessive when you first try...something to trust
Awesome, Danny! I have been struggling with this for a while (forever!). Good luck in 2021. Scott
Thank you Scott, all the best for you too
This is why I watch the channel because you always come up with something different Danny.
I certainly try Nic, Im fortunate that my clients give me so much material 😁
Oh man Danny! This game! Indeed habits don’t die easily. Great video as usual. Thank you. We soldier on 🇿🇦
We do indeed Georgie 😁
Well Danny. I’ve got to say that is absolutely fantastic i’ve got to say a massive thank you again for you doing what you do best and giving us some great drills to work on , I went on the golf course yesterday with one of my clients , and shot 81 course is par 71 I could NOT of done that without your HELP 👏 and the summer is not here yet hope you and your family have a fantastic weekend Danny. 🥳
Thats very kind Dave, must have been a great feeling. Well done
This step by step is what i looking for.. good luck Danny and greeting from Indonesia
Best golf lesson 👍 You’re the man Danny…Thank you !!!
Great tip as usual. So much easier than trying to focus on weight transfer. Would love to see a tip focusing on releasing the club. Thanks Danny!
Funny you should say that Bill, Im planning one at the moment
Watched this video this morning. Practiced before I played. I hardly ever used my 5,6 and 8 irons. Tried this on the course and broke 100 for the first time ever. Thank you Danny.
I bet that was an amazing feeling! Thanks for sharing
Single best lesson I’ve seen on RUclips.
Hope it helps Walter
Danny, i watched your video on how to hit a driver & irons, i still dont use my driver, but i bought a 3 wood (13° ) i am hitting my irons great now & do my palm swings, as well as my swing band nearly every mornings, ive gained yardage off the tee & like everything else I am enjoying it loads more , all thanks to you Sir👍thanks again, TOP MAN
Thats brilliant Philip, well done. Thanks for taking the time to share
Hi Danny, new to your channel, really enjoying your instruction videos. I love the way your drills are focused on FEELING things, I can't wait to take some of these ideas out onto the course. I've subscribed and look forward to checking in for my virtual 'lesson' every week. All the best.
Welcome to our community Boyd, really look forward to helping you with your game. Come and join me on Facebook too as im going to go LIVE again this week and answer your questions.
One of your best lesson yet. Thank you, Danny. Very Hogan.
Robert Roadenbaugh glad you liked it Robert, thank you
Great drill, Danny. Especially the tip about not turning on the follow through causing a hook.
Yes, this is one of my personal faults
Simply great, many thxs!
My pleasure, hope it helps your ball striking
This is by far the best pressure transfer drill I’ve ever seen 🙌. Simple and athletic movement. Thanks Danny! 👏
Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant video thank you
Thank you, hope it helps your ball striking
Your information is very helpful! Thanks!
Thank you Fred 😁
Another great simple drill for better golf. Thank you Danny.
Hope it helps your ball striking Richard
HELLO... SAMARITANS? 😢
Danny, you’ve put me back 6 months! You are spot on with this as I believe I only turn but mate, I’m in lockdown here swinging a feckin’ empty loo roll!! 😬
I know, its crazy times we are in right now...stay safe
Thank you, Danny .. For the perfect video
Its my pleasure, hope you are having a great weekend
Love your instruction! I get stuck on my right side, so trying to get a few drills to change that habit. Thank you Danny🙂
You got this!
It is an excellent way to improve one's golf. I think it is the best so far.
Thank you Pravat, I like the feel of this golf drill
This video is top, was struggling so much with sliding and bending my right knee not really getting to get the weight on the right foot at all, been doing this for 10 minutes and I can consistently do it without having to use my full brain on it. When you are really used to do something it's actually so hard to change, indeed.
Yes very true glad the video helped you and thanks for your support 👍
Having lessons at the moment and the down swing weight transfer is doing my head in. I'm definitely going to try this to see if it solves the issue for me. Thanks for sharing Danny
My pleasure, all the best
It’s more of a momentum change or pushing force into your foot not changing weight
Another great lesson, it has helped me
Brilliant Joe, thank you
Just stepped away from the full big mirror in games room set up with rubber mats and foam golf balls, love this drill I prefer prop and twist ( but a rose by any other name smells just as sweet) I am also a 60+ golfer that returned to the game after a 25 year absence from the game. To para phrase Greg Norman “ I surfed before I took up Golf there are a lot of similarities with golf” I never surfed but I think I have only recently discovered what he meant.
Yes, love that image
I was pushing and twisting in my living room! Great video!
Love that! Thanks for sharing Jaime
Excellent reminder Danny!👍
Hope it helps your ball striking Doc
Thanks again Danny 😘👍🏻
Pleasure Steve, hope you are keeping well
Great video. I have been struggling so much with my swing as I get poor strike and bad distance. I've tried so much lately and getting worse. But think I have lost so much confidence and think down to my static posture because of it. This video really feels better about where pressure points should be.
keep me posted Martin
This is the most easy way to learn weight transfer for ever!
Hope it helps your golf game 😁
Looks like a great drill and perfect warmup.
Thanks Colin, yes it's a great one to get the feel and coordination of the golf swing
Colin White I totally agree with you mate 👍🏼🏌🏼♂️
Brilliant again Danny pal top man 👍❤️
Cheers William, this one can be a game changer. Hope you are having a great weekend
Another awesome drill to freely move the weight over. Great video. Thanks Danny!
Happy to help!
Hi Danny, love this video. Just clarify where exactly in the feet should I feel the pressure before twisting. Keep the videos coming my friend
initially I'd be happy for you to feel an even pressure across the foot before it moves into the heel of the right and the toe of the left in the backswing and vaca versa in the down swing (right handed golfers)
Well Danny My Grandfather 👴 came over here early at 4:39 for me to play golf with the golf sticks so we did a good game he was trying to get me ready for golf in 3 days. Oh there’s one thing my Pop pop keep my feet straight and aim it at the course stick on the flat mat to make my body still and strong.
Hope you are enjoying it Jimmy
Thanks Danny!
Pleasure Jeff
This is one of your best vids!!
Thank you Gregory, appreciate the feedback
Another great Video
Thank you Scott, appreciate the comment
Another great video Danny getting there but my word it takes practice and lots of great it.it’s the stalling at impact. Even though I let go with the arms it’s getting the body to follow. What I have. Realised is slow and forget about distance swing easy takes time but getting there slow but sure many thanks chris
Yes, it's not always easy to eliminate our habits but you will get there
danny you should be an easiest swing coach. your coaching content are very similar. with the help of both my golf has never been better or more fun. thanks , so glad i found your channel
Glad you did Vincent, great to hear the lessons are helping
Danny, thanks for the tip. I have been struggling with this for years and I think I might be able to correct it with this drill. One question - when I do eventually work up to hitting balls, which iron would you suggest I start to use? I always have trouble hitting anything longer than a 7-8 iron but am looking forward to being able to make good contact and get to my left side.
Hugely helpful tip. Saw immediate improvement. Thanks!
Brilliant Steven
Brilliant video Danny!
Thanks Francis 😁
Thx Danny, with this my Ben Hogan swing now are complete😎
At least I hope to 😀
Simple and awesome
Thanks for taking the time to feedback Mac
So simple, and I’ve heard it a million times in one way or another.....but I wasn’t doing it!?! Am now, and made a big difference!! Solid video....TY Sir!
Glad it helped! 👍
Nice video Danny. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Avery, hope it helps your ball striking
