    I’ve watched a lot of golf instructional videos and taken a few lessons but the way you explain things makes more sense and made more difference in my swing than any others including live lessons.

    Hey Larry, I've been working on your build your swing series, and have actually started getting some divots (very unusual for me), even before watching this video. I just wanted to take time to thank you for providing such quality instruction in an easy to access and understand format. I feel like I should owe you money at this point. Now off to find some content about making the driver hit some fairways......

      Good to hear you're enjoying it!! if your swing is good, it will work regardless of club in hand =)

    I wanted to thank you Larry for your videos. I've watched just about all off them. and my swing has improved. I've had issues with trying to create lag for power which caused a lot of bend in my elbow. my intial back swing started with my arms again thinking power comes from the arms that caused an out to in path. my transition from the down swing started with my arms which i chunked alot or topped. now i start with my lead shoulder which helps me think about rotation vs hands. so much power and little effort. i keep my weight on my heels which helps with leaning forward. My obliques and glutes feel it cause i engage them now. i video tape all my swings and see the progression. thanks so much. my driver doesnt slice anymore too.(aslong as i follow the program.)

    Qual as always Larry. I was clean striking due to early extension. You videos on how to load the rear glute and turn with more weight in the rear foot has helped no end! Top stuff as always👍

    Wow it's like you're speaking directly at my swing. I always throw my hips towards the target as my first movement. Now I know what I have to work on!

    What a great lesson. I didn't realize that since my lead shoulder wasn't staying low and through long enough, I was early releasing and at times hit fat. This is an awesome tip for someone like me. I shot an 83 today but really had to pay attention to stay in the shot. Had I known this and been deliberate in working the lead shoulder through, results would have been better with all my shots. Find out tomorrow at a different course. Thank you very much for sharing!

    The two times thus far that I have implemented the stock 40 yrd shot (58deg) with your technique, it has resulted in an easy birdie. Thanks

      Hey Whisker it's Bandit here (currently in hiding on MrsBandits computer), ...yep definitely think that Larry is spying on us.
      PS I think that Larry's drills only work if we grow our hair, so I'm currently trying to grow my ear & nose hair so that I can knit myself a full head of hair. At the current rate of grow I should be ok in about 10 years!!!!!!!!

    Excellent reminder vid Larry, the part of the sequence I am struggling with currently, and is resulting in variable strike qualit,y is while progressing through the turn, matching up addition of pushing with the back foot and making a well timed extension - this has been leading to quite a few funky tops when I try on course

    I’m trying this as a left handed and I’m taking a divot now but hitting the ball directly to the right, and I feel like I’m coming over the top. Hopefully I can dial the turning right back some to straighten out the shot.

      This isn't the fix for everything haha, but it could if you top fairways woods due to you tilting back so much =P

    As the Membership Sec of SAS (Sweepers Anonymous Society), I wish to lodge a complaint! If you carry on like this Larry we ain't gonna have any members left!
    I have been struggling to take a divot for years, (the only time I take an actual divot is when I hit a massive fat shot).
    I'm trying this drill out, but I am struggling to keep my lead shoulder down in the downswing, it automatically wants to "lift" as my trail shoulder drops. Any suggestions, please?

      if doing this makes you very out to in, then it may mean that trying to hit down on the ball is not the most important piece you should be working on =)
