The most productive lesson I have ever seen. This explains the heretofore "feel" I experience when I'm in synch and really crushing the ball, and with seemingly no effort. "Free-falling" is the magic word... and now you have unlocked the monster. I think that, loaded with this simple and unobtrusive swing thought, I will be able to reliably repeat more often this magic move. Great job...
I've been golfing for 55 years and this is the best description of the "move" I have seen.
Best explanation of how to start the downswing I have ever heard. Eliminates what Homer called “downswing blackout!” Very perceptive.
Thank you Jonathon, that really is the missing piece in my jigsaw, what an amazing thought, everything just naturally falls into place after it now feels like it's starting right.
This move you are describing is what people like Milo Lines and George Gankis are also teaching, however, you describe it much more in detail and much better than they do. I have been learning this move for 3 months. I have noticed a difference in my ball flight in a gradual improvement as I get closer to getting closer to doing this move correctly. My point is that I don't have to be doing this move perfectly to see results, but I continue to see better and better results as I get closer and closer to doing this move properly.
This is another great point. I kind of think of the move as a very very tiny hop, so small of a hop that your feet never actually leave the ground, at the very top of the backswing and then on the landing from the aforementioned hop your downswing comes into play naturally. When "landing" on from the aforementioned "hop" it helps me to weight shift much more easily as well. In my experience this sequence of events makes the inside to outside swing path in which you come across the ball possible. Until I began to do what Jonathan explains so eloquently I had a very hard time coming across the ball. Jonathan I must say you are one of the most articulate golf pros Ive seen.
Jonathan, your content is incredible. I had this feeling of momentary weightlessness by accident once in my round yesterday.. drove it 300 yards with no effort. Almost felt like I was just along for the ride. What a gem you have uncovered. Thank you for all that you do, I love it all, please keep it coming, you deserve a million subscribers. All the best, Paul
Jonathan, last week I was able to shoot at 81. My previous best round was 87. Thanks to you, I feel like shooting in the seventies is now attainable. To anyone reading this, do the drills that Jonathan prescribes every single day, visualize your shot, have no swing thoughts during the swing, and you'll be amazed at what comes out! THANK YOU again Jonathan! I'll keep you posted on my progress!
There is no need to watch anyone else give instructions on golf. Excellent and easy to understand video. Thank you Jonathon
Not only do I believe you believe this is the secret - I believe you are 100% right :) There is a ton of stuff out there on posterior pelvic tilt - particularly at setup and how this helps rotational turn. But it's never really explained how and why it is so crucial to transition back anterior at a point in your swing. It's the transition and the corresponding amount of transition that in particular defines how far you can hit the ball. More transition means more loading and lag and greater "drop" into the ball - when I saw this and your other video it was easy to sense-make players like DJ, Rory, Tiger, Cameron Champ and how they hit it so pure and so far and look so fluid doing it.T his one little move - you are one of the only golf instructors on the internet that has managed to explain it so well. Thanks
Easily one of the best explanations & teachings of transition from “backswing” to “downswing” I’ve ever heard/watched!
Every time I watch this I gain additional valuable insight and information of how to transition and release the club. Your knowledge of the golf swing is amazing and your delivery of information is spot on.
Excellent video as I have fought my entire golfing career, especially with irons, to hit from the top. Best explanation I have seen on the so called "transition" or how to start the down swing. it is almost like a pendulum, when it hits the top of it's arc, it starts down slowly and gravity pulls it down causing acceleration more at the bottom. Sorry to discover you so late as this video was 4 years ago, but thank you as you are what I was looking for!
This is great! And that kid at 9:56 knows exactly what he’s doing!
I've seen a lot of videos that try to explain the "move" and this one was one of the best. Thanks!
The operative words here are: WEIGHTLESSNESS and FLOATING sensation.
I discovered this at the start of this season and this vid reinforces the same. When you start to feel like your club is just floating in space, it is a COMPLETELY different sensation than using the hit impulse to go after the ball.
I am guessing this is what he is talking about and it is not at all as complex as some are making it out to be.
It is more of a feeling or a sensation vs a specific move happening here but once you have that “feeling” engrained, you will hit the ball and swing the club in a very different manner than you are used to.
How could there be 99 TD's with this video?
Priceless content IMO!
Thanks for a great channel Jonathan.
Your choice of words in explaining things is amazing. Heard about this many times before, but you really unlock the benefits of it. Thank you...
Wish I'd seen this video earlier this year. I'm really into the Stack & Tilt swing, but when it comes to an intellectual analysis & cogent description of what is important in the golf swing, this video is second to none. Jonathan, you are the Mr. Professor of golf! I will watch this several times over the winter & before the beginning of the golf season next spring.
Brilliant lesson. I've been able to dramatically improve my swing using the move. And my enjoyment of the game has skyrocketed. I finally feel like I am imprinting the ideal swing. Thank you.
Hello, I am Argentine and I write for the Google translator. I have to affirm that this is the most brilliant explanation I have received of a golf swing. My most sincere congratulations to Mr. Taylor for such a brilliant explanation. Thank you.
Wow, thank you!
I wish I had seen this 10 years ago....it’s spot on, exactly what it feels like when you get the transition right!
Great basket ball comparison. Never got the AMG explanation of how to transition. This was a great vid that actually translated into onto the course. Thanks!
Thank you so much Jonathan, this "move" really changed my whole understanding of golf. In my mind the downswing is drop in the first part and release in the second part. WOW!!! Makes my golf so easy to hit... I look forward to playing this game for a long time...my best to you and thank you for letting me enjoy this game even more...:)
Hi Jonathan, after I watch your video, I fully understand the weight shift and the release. Thank you very much for this great video.
Man! I am going to delete all the previous vids from other Pro. You are simply the best!!! Respect from Russia 🇷🇺
Jonathan, this is what I,be looking for for ages. Tried various thoughts of others. You have indeed “got it” with this explanation. Changed my game unbelievably so. Ciao
This tip eliminated my pushing the ball, improved rhythm and timing, improved distance and quality of contact. The single best tip I have received in 15 yrs. it helped me go from being a teen handicapper to a single handicapper. Amazing.
Jon, you're so articulate in a way about the swing I've never heard from anybody thank you so much
Man if that ain't the greatest instructional video I've ever seen! superb!
this is gold. I just tried it next to my bed. totally feel the weightless moment. very peaceful
I have never heard anyone explain this critical concept so clearly and accurate !
Fantastic - thank you so much !
Once again, for those of you who have struggled for years, this is some of the best information I have ever seen. Certainly, not taking any credit for any more knowledge than anyone else, but what Jonathan is saying here, are the answers to questions that I had asked for years and would only get funny looks.
Excellent graphic illustration and explanation of the body movements and physical forces that make up a classic golf swing. Really impressive video.
Excellent. I'd been working on a hand drop - now realise it's more of a whole body 'drop' - which, hopefully, is a bit easier to groove into the downswing. Thanks
I'll have to say this is great. The SQUAT explained. Yes all great players do this either consciously or subconsciously it's evident in the videos.
Best instructional videos on RUclips. Thanks
This is just great description of the downswing and advice on what the body is doing. Thank you.
Thank you very much, this free flow movement is how I started when I first was learning the swing but I kind of hurt my back and I even started learning left handed cuz I didn’t wanted to give it up, since I didn’t know the fundamentals, but now a year and a half ago I’m more happy with my swing and I’m back now to right handed, but this video helped me be not afraid of if letting go and I now feel what you’re saying here... so thank you so very much
I started playing after my 72nd birthday in November 18. I did play 2 rounds back in the 80's and did not enjoy it much. When I started again I was topping slicing hooking and all over the place... even when I could connect I only was hitting a 7 iron 50 - 80 yards. I have played around 30 games on the local 9 hole and my best round was 53 but often in the 70+ strokes.....I decided to get some tips and started watching your videos, I went to the range yesterday and was consistently hitting the 7 iron 90+ metres - I used around 30 balls and only mishit 2 or 3.... Looking forward to getting on the course again next week! Thank you....you have been a great help
Perfect! Good video. I call this move the "Tiger Squat." Or the Rory Dip. Yes. I practice this move all the time. Thanks!
I just found this video. Phenomenal way of explaining this, incredibly helpful
Thank you Jonathon.....an excellent explanation of the “move”....can’t wait to get to the range!
I love your step-by-step approach. Will include it in my daily Morning exercice, and will report my Progress in March 2022. Greetings from Austria😃
the falling sensation is the best downswing initiation ive ever seen......totally get that....
Thank you for a clear and detailed explanation of the "move" (or what some teachers call the "float"). It is the best account I have sseen/heard on RUclips. It also explains how the hands can be still moving up while the body is begining to turn in the opposite direction. As the hands are reaching the top of the back swing, doing a very small squat or dip makes it possible to stretch the arms a little further up as the knees flex a little and the body beings to turn towards the target. The hands are not still as the "move" is being executed. This makes it possible to execute the golf swing in one fluid motion. Without doing the "move" it is difficult to keeep moving the up up while turning the hips toward the target. Thank you again for your generosity in sharing your vast experience and expertise with us. Your kindness is much appreciated.
Hi Jonathan,I cannot emphasise enough how important this move is,it has helped me enormously in my consistency,if you are not doing this in your golf swing then you will never achieve the level of ball striking that you seek,,many thanks,,,ian
Thank you for breakdown on the beginning of the golf down swing! Excellent!
Spot on instruction my friend !!! You have me ripping the cover off of the ball!!!
LOL "There's light at the end of the tunnel" Great video.
Jonathan, Thanks for helping me connect the dots. I have heard a dozen explanations on starting the down swing but never as clear and logical as you describe. Thanks to your instruction my understanding of the swing and my ability to execute is improving.
Jonathan, thank you for the detailed visual explanation of what you are trying to teach us. Good pedagogy.
You are the best teacher for golf swing s. My swing has been improved a lot since I met with you ! Thanks a lot !
Thank You Jonathan... This more than any other instruction has helped me with my swing!
This is the biggest secret not many pro teachers share it with their students. Thanks a lot for this
Thanks Jonathan, so I guess this is what some instructors on the internet call floating.I like the way you explain the golf swing you make it very simple to understand and you get right to the point.I will be working on this move I hope this will help because I do get steep in my downswing and get very handsy and flip at the golf ball.
great explanation of how the freefall sets everything in motion.....something i need to work on.....thx jonathan
Was skeptical at first but a big thank you, getting to the bottom of the ball for the first time in ten years.
Great video and well explained, I actually did the move without realising when I was playing my best then got in my own way not knowing I'd struck gold. Added so many yards doing this, and accuracy from not trying to steer the club
yes !! agreed
Hey Jonathan, I have watched this vid multiple times. I have been reviewing some of yours that I have seen before but given the timing it helps me to go outside in the back and do some more focused work on the swing since the courses are not available. I really love the break down of the swing you provide. I have so much more understanding of the mechanics because of your explanations and I can transfer this understanding to my own swing. Just wanted to say thanks and stay safe. Next time I am in Germany I am going to schedule a lesson. :) Joe from California
Brilliant explanation about the move. Really answers my doubt of many years.
Brilliant, this will make such a difference to my game. Thank you.
Great detailed explanation. Felt exhausted after watching the video because I was feeling what you were explaining. Like I was actually making the swing yet I was sitting down watching the video. Basketball player making the shot helped me understand the free falling feeling. Great teacher. Thank you.
Great explanation of the coming down part when its an integral part of a swing or whether its wrong or wright to even incorporate it in your swing.
I've been looking for an explanation of this movement. And now I found it. Thanks!
Fantastic. I can't wait to get to the range to try it out. Thank you.
Great stuff, best golf instruction series on RUclips, thanks.
Fabulous explanation Jonathan, the free fall is similar to what we saw Sam Snead do with his "squat". We will get out of the ground what we put in so we need some downforce to create energy that we can use for counter leverage and create speed. Really enjoyed your delivery of this message. Well done and very sound information to all who will take time to invest and understand the "why" about the golf swing instead of just the "how".
Wow - never heard this concept of "weightlessness", brilliant! This just might be the "Secret"
I do like! I like the way you describe subtle feelings, quite difficult to do. This magic move reminds of Mike Malaska's discussion of "tipping" the shaft. You gave me my first "eureka" moment when you demonstrated how the hips move in the backswing and this is probably my second...thanks!
Deep video... it's a different concept than what I understood about the downswing. I'm going to make a bunch of practice swings in the home before I take it to the range and see how this changes my results.
Thanks for all the great content! This in particular works great for me. I tried it out on the range today and feeling the weightlessness meant everything fell into place: no rushing the backswing, hands stayed loose so good lag, gravity can do its trick so the swing plane can be more horizontal , hips rotated and no more questions about transition. Excellent contact and distance as a result. I also liked how simple and focused on pure feeling it is, which is a great complement to some other videos where you focus on very detailed and technical aspects.
Thank you, that means a lot.
A really good job of explaining a difficult move to explain. For me the feeling is of the right shoulder and right elbow moving downward and forward as the club stays in the top of the backswing position while my back remains facing the target. This lasts only a fraction of a second before what Sam Snead described as a “ snap crackle and pop ,” which was how he described release. But that first move really is one of free-falling..
Really glad i found this, I have a reasonably solid swing - 5/6 handicap but tend to be too steep as I try and 'hit' the ball the moment I start my backswing, left shoulder pulling and turning and club steepens. I will try the move and hopefully it will help me allow the club to fall into position, hands lower before trying to accelerate. Something to practice whilst we can't play!
Another amazing illustration. And well out tougher. You will be a sensation on RUclips. Give it time.
Many thanks J.T.
Great video, well done.
Cheers
Simplement Magnifique ! Thank You, Great Video.Merci
Great advices and tips as usual. Thanks Jonathan!
1 word, no 2 words - simply brilliant !!
Jonny Boy ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ that's probably the best explanation of the transition I've ever seen 👍👍👍👍 brilliant thanks 👍
The Move! My number One Goal!
FINALLY!!! Great video!!!
brilliant video - the best i have seen on clearing hips
Excellent explanation! Can't wait to hit the range tomorrow and try it
this was a revelation for me! thanks - excited to go to the range....
I love you. Game changer video! Thank you so much.
Love the eloquence and humbleness in delivery Jonathan.I am going for a lesson later today in England and will use this video as the core for discussion.I was already considering a slight lift( in pressure at least) of the left heel and then a replanting (feeling)to initiate a similar "move" scenario.Not sure as yet whether to have the Mike Malaska type shaft tipping/hands in front or a more club head "laid off" or behind thought whilst allowing the club to freefall.Ideally just let it flow I guess as i can imagine too much manipulation will only bring back tension.Anyway thanks for your continued online content bud much appreciated.
This makes golf fun! I love it! You sir are superb!!!
Jon is a biomechanist. Great explanation.
What you are describing at 3.48 is exactly what Hogan did.
He figured it out way back then.
Greg Norman also did it. Good vid .
Brilliant! Much respect .
Well done! I like the option to skip ahead or not.
Love your explanation of "The Move" Jonathan, I just found your "3Tips for a Perfect Release", absolute Gold!
I predict you will have a Monsoon of followers once the word gets out. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Super video - Great for me as I have aged perhaps not gracefully as I got away from the move as shown; Been struggling - aging seems to cause decent players to seek to hold onto what they have and therefore in trying to maintain the lost of distance allow elements of their swings to change --- results being in my case extreme inconsistency. Thanks
I found this video very helpful it is something I am struggling with, thank you.
You perfectly describe what pro's have called Lag for generations now.
Correct.
Spot on! Thanks very much!
Best info about the downswing .
Whatever a good vidéo.Bravo for you,teacher.
great explanation...simple and easy to understand
great instruction! This will take time to own, but time well spent.
