Another classic example of why you are consistently considered the best instructor on RUclips. The way you describe swing visuals is incredibly helpful and useful. And cheers to your dad. The videos with you two are some of my favorites.
I am 75 years old and I love that you take TIME to to help your dad with his golf swing . Even though we can not hit it 300 yards , we still enjoy playing the game . Spending time with your dad is the greatest thing you can do for him . Keep it up . I live in Sullivan Indiana and enjoy going out and playing golf with my wife, for us golf season is almost over . I enjoy gwtting my sons on the course when they have the time .
I can't hit it that far but still derive huge pleasure from hitting easy high draws that find the fairway. Lovely to hear the ball being compressed sweetly when I and/or playing partners connects correctly. 90% setup issues?
Set up correctly and just bloody hit it ! Hitting rug wi’ cricket bat is the most supremely Yorkshire visual. Thanks to you and your Dad for this inspiring lesson. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Danny - I am 70 years old and can only hit the ball about 170yds but after watching your video I have identified exactly what I have been doing wrong, your explanation in the swing direction and body adjustments can only improve my distance. Hopefully I will come back to you with my new improved distance over 200 yards.
Thanks Danny. I lost my dad last year. We used to go for a hit each time we caught up. T'was truly bewdifully to see this. Treasure your times together. Loved the tips. awesome as usual. Cheers mate Joseph
As a 25+ years experienced PE teacher (and a single figure hcp player for the same amount off time) i was so impressed by the way you thought this to your dad, soo exactly spot on for him to understand and so good to watch for a lot off players. Big thumbs up for the way you do this 🙂💪
These videos with your Dad and the way you can improve his game with simple little changes are brilliant. Lost my Dad 5 years ago and it's so heartwarming seeing quality Father and son time like this ❤
@DanielMaude took up golf in my mid 30s to play with my now 79 year old father in law. Been bringing my now 8 year old for the last 4 years. Took it up to ensure my little guy has quality memories with grand dad. He's lost a good amount of distance the last 4 years. Watching this vid, after getting him a XXIO Prime 7 wood to get him some more distance, I wonder if a lesson is in order.
helpful set up tips to help achieve a " positive " swing path : .... lively legs....left hip forward a bit....hands / handle slightly more forward ..... tips to ramp-up club head speed: focus on applying more energy into the back of the ball...... increase the backswing to store more energy for the downswing......God Bless your Dad.....I love the videos of you instructing him .....
I love all your videos with your Dad. I am older myself than your Dad ( 82), and my Dad has been gone since 1985, but he was and still is my favorite golfing partner of all time, and I get nostalgic watching you interact with your dad.
Hi Danny. I realise that you won't see this but I watched this and applied it on course this afternoon. I can't quite believe it. My drive always came out low and sliced back in. 180 yards was normal. Today I was hitting it completely straight and hit a max of 240 yards in extremely wet conditions. You've completely reinvigorated my love for the game. Thank you so much.
You've shared some great lessons Danny - but this is the best! I'm really pleased for your Dad - well done him (and you). This is exactly the lesson I'd like. I've had quite a few lessons in my time and , mostly, my coach has suggested some changes (similar to some of yours) but it's like they've plucked them out of the air. I'm sure they are correct and they know why they've made the suggestions, but they don't share the analysis and the explanation and they don't use the tracker data to show cause and effect. It calls for a lot of trust from me. That means that I take their suggestions to the range/course but, if a bad shots turns up (and it always will when learning new things) my trust weakens and I don't have the clarity of knowledge to fall back on. Your lesson with your dad was clear, logical, patient, progressive - great coaching !
Just been one of those Sundays that has given me joy with my own kids and seeing you and you dad has added to the happiness. Great lesson, will take a lot from it. Regards to Mr Maude Snr
Danny… a simple thing you covered on this video has completely changed my driver swing. The ‘glancing blow’ as you put it is exactly what I’ve been trying to rectify for years. So to move the hands forward in set up to open the face has been the fix. It also makes me swing more in to out. Today hit 80% fairways, meaning I’m not scrambling for an up and down. Thank you
I love these videos. The process for making your swing predictable and then more powerful is really beautifully broken down. Have to admit I was pretty much cheering your dad on every time he took a swing. Going to the range now to try and put some of this into my swing.
This video definitely felt close to home for me, Danny. My dad is getting back in the game after stoping for 10 years (he broke his back). He taught me how to golf when I was younger, and it’s been nice to now be helping my dad learn a new swing (because of his back), and the enjoyment when he realizes he still has the game. Danny, your tips and videos have helped myself, and now my dad. You’re a true gentleman, Danny. I will forever be appreciative of you, and everything you do for the golf community. Cheers.
Danny, it’s truly magical to see your dear Father’s smile at the end of the lesson! The instruction you provide in this video is so powerful and enlightening. Everything makes so much sense and you are a master at analysing and fixing a golf swing. Hope his improvement continues with respect to his ball striking. Best golf instructor on RUclips, best regards, Rob from Durban, South Africa.
I just love you guys. What a massive change in his swing. Loved the Rug analogy. Will keep that in mind. Off to Portugal today to golf from 🇨🇦 your Dad must have been tired after hitting all those balls but I bet he is eager to get out on the course to try it out. So happy you are taking advantage of the time you have with him. I look forward to your next episode. I am 70 and took up golf in my 50s. So much to learn in this mental and physical game. Great challenge.
I think you hit a very sweet note with this video, it was great to see you showing your 80 year old Dad how to improve his swing. I'm 75 and have been struggling with an outside-in swing for my entire life. I try to take all these tips to heart, but my problem is that my practice swings look great but once I try to hit a real ball, that all goes out the window. My downswing just refuses to listen to my brain. But seeing how your Dad added 30 yards with an abbreviated backswing gives me hope that I can improve. Great video for seniors!
Danny i have been following you for months now. You are just fantastic, you make golf swings so easy with the way you explain it. I have improved so much watching and practicing your methods.
Game changer Danny. Concentrate on hitting the ball hard. I’ve been faffing around with trying to complete my swing and loosing distance as a result. Great video as usual, especially for us old uns.
Thanks @roncowper5785 for the expression, which describes perfectly what I am doing with my driver (faffing around). Hope, Danny´s video will help us out.
Danny super impressed with what you have done for your Dad. This speaks volumes of your coaching abilities and you as a person. thanks for another great lesson.
Great lesson with your dad, Danny. I’m 79, and the long, languid, Fred Couples-like swing that I had in my younger years stopped working several years ago. Old age just doesn’t allow for that kind of golf swing. My swing became short and compact like your dad’s, and the lesson you gave him was spot on - get the setup right, take the club no further back than your flexibility will allow, and just hit it harder. Excellent lesson; really well done. 👍
@@DanielMaude nothing beats spending time with the parents Danny - moments to be treasured for sure - greta tips in the video and made simple as always ⛳️👍
This lesson is lovely to watch. So natural and insightful. Feels like you both don’t even know the camera is recording. Powerful, I have no doubt this will help soo many golfers old and young! 🙏🏻
I love your content Danny, but what I love more than anything is when you have your Dad on the channel. Your interaction is a beautiful thing. I lost my dad in 2020 and every time I see you and him together it makes me remember dad and how important that relationship is. Keep putting up great content, stay blessed, and let's get Dad to 300!
This is your best lesson yet Danny. You simplify the correlation between the numbers and each component of the golf swing. I have the compact swing like your dad, and usually lose control when trying to create that whip motion.
Your tips about hips and arm position are so clear and easy to follow...have been doing it unconsciously for years as I improve my ball striking but you gave theory and structure to the effort, thanks again.
Danny you are the only RUclips coach I will watch. By far the easiest to fallow and you have helped me loads. I’m a basic amateur but still helped loads
Danny, love this video. I wish I had my Dad still with me and this just brought smiles. Also, as a 70 year old golfer who used to hit it long, these tips are greatly appreciated. I think I was setting up with the shaft too far back, not allowing for maximum impact. Anyway, the videos of you and you Dad are priceless, and also love seeing help for us seniors! Keep them coming!
This was a great video! The teaching is superb. But my most favorite part is the end when the affection between you and your dad is so clear. Loved that.
Danny - love watching you work with your dad. Great pointers provided in this lesson. Thanks for all you do and focusing on solid teaching for all golfers.
What a day memories of playing golf with dad. Hitting the rug out on the clothes line and mum calling me a “silly sod” always with a smile on her face. Thanks a million made my day, now to put these methods into practice. 🏏👍
Email arrived Oct 5. and was going to pass viewing. Thoroughly enjoyed insights and the basic fundamental instruction. Glad I took 23:02 to view. I have watched a gaggle of Danny's videos. Everyone is like having the cookie jar on the counter and not in the cupboard. Easy to access. A good giggle I migh add....... You're a 120 yards off your goal. 80 years old and he hits final drive 196 yards in the fairway after his first drive with his son flew 161 yards. Club head speed jumps substantially as well. Pretty decent to say the least. What is notable is all....all the positive feedback Danny fed his Dad even when Dad was working on the "mechanics/position" of his goal.
Danny, I hope you appreciate how fortunate you are to have your father around at 80 yrs old. For him to want to improve his game at 80 is awesome. Good for you; good for him.
Thanks Danny - great technical session but honestly watching you and your Dad interact was very moving - some of my happiest times were spent on the GC with my Dad and although he is no longer with us , I always think of him on the course - a brilliant watch.
THANK YOU FOR A TRULY EXCELLENT, VERY HELPFUL VIDEO WITH A BRILLIANT, VERY CLEAR PRACTICE PLAN. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE HOW YOUR DAD ENJOYED YOUR EXPERT GUIDANCE & HE MADE WONDERFUL PROGRESS . I AM A SIMILAR AGE TO YOUR DAD & I WANT TO TRY AND FOLLOW HIS SUCCESS. THIS VIDEO SHOWED HOW A SENIOR GOLFER CAN INCREASE HIS DRIVING DISTANCE. I THINK THIS VIDEO IS PROBABLY THE ONE WHICH WILL REALLY IMPROVE MY DRIVING DISTANCE. MANY THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU. IT WILL ENCOURAGE MANY SENIORS TO FOLLOW YOUR CLEAR ADVICE.
SUNDAY. TESTED DANNY'S RECOMMENDATIONS IN MY GOLF NET. USED IMPACT STICKER ON MY DRIVER , WITH GOLF BALLS WITH A 2 CENTIMETRE DIAMETER CIRCLE USING BLACK FELT TIP MARKING PEN. MAJORITY OF STRIKES IN CENTRE OF DRIVER FACE. IF IT WORKS FOR ME , DANNY'S ADVICE SHOULD HELP OTHER GOLFERS. AS DANNY SAID THE FOLLOW THROUGH JUST HAPPENS. ONE VERY SATISFIED SENIOR GOLFER. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO CHECKING THE DISTANCE ON THE GOLF COURSE. RENEWED THANKS TO DANNY & HIS WONDERFUL DAD.
Simply Brilliant! I'm 72 and have been playing golf for 50 years. Your lessons have knocked 15 strokes off my score. Thank you very much. I love the lessons with your dad.
Today I incorporated your suggestion as to shortening my stance, down a bit below shoulder width...it was raining, horrible day and I shot 90!. My longtime golf partner commented that he had not seen me hit driver and fairway shots so straight in a long time. Kudos to you!
Thank you for sharing this video with the golf community. It is inspiring on a couple of levels. The father-son relationship is priceless, reminding me of my father and me when I was a teenager and now my recently retired son and I as a octogenarian playing golf together. Also, Danny, the video motivates me to continue pursuing improvement and that fundamentals are really important for so many of us. I'll be on my way to the driving range soon.
This is impressive!!!Danny is the best to my by far I turn my hdc from 3 to a +2 watching this guy videos. From the bottom of my heart Thank you 🙏🏻!!!!
Went to the range today. Definite improvement on my driver ball striking. I usually use a shoe spray to check my contact on the club face. Usually it shows all over the face. Today it showed almost everything in middle and the only deviation was slightly up on the face but still in the middle of the face. I even tried the weight shift move at address with my fairway woods of the deck and somehow even that made a big improvement in my striking and distance for my 5 wood. Only been playing for 2 years now and self taught of off many of yours and some other youtube golf trainers' videos. Thanks Danny!
I'm probably as old as your dad, and this tip on hip tilt and handle tilt as well as knee bend and body position is a boon to us senior golfers. Wow - simple small things make major differences. Thank you, Danny!
So lovely to see the great interaction between you and your Dad. Your ability to simplify the swing and break into 3 steps is so helpful! I will visualize the rug and cricket bat to hit it hard too! Thanks Danny!
Hey Danny, Australian living in Thailand. I used your technique that you showed your father. I am 61 and definitely saw a nice improvement in my drives being straight and more further distance when i concentrated. Thank you so much and keep the lessons coming.
I follow your channel continuously and think it is by far the best of all the golf channels on the net. Besides you teach in a good way and it makes my golf better, i get to update my English //Dennis from Sweden
What a lovely video with your Dad Danny, not only really helpful but so heartwarming. Like many others I lost my Dad a couple of years ago and never had the relationship you have with your Dad until it was too late❤
Very touching seeing you coaching your dad. Golf is before all the pleasure to spend time with our friends and relatives not only performance, albeit your advices are so valuable. Thanks Dany from a French man over 70’s.
This information is golden, especially for us golden age golfers, the visuals for swing path regarding club face, brilliant with amazing results for all to see, well done to your dad and yourself Danny.
Brilliant video Danny! I’m 70 and swing pretty much like your dad at the start, glancing blow. It’s given me hope to increase my driver distance from the current 165 yds. Thanks.
What a wonderful session. Great to see you with your Dad. It was so heartwarming to watch. Not only that but the tips you gave him were amazing. I recently started pushing my left hip forwards and it’s made such a difference. I am still not as consistent as I would like, but am so much better than before and slicing less. Love your teaching style Danny - simply the best on RUclips bar none!
Your best lesson yet Danny! This is golf improvement in its purest form. Learn how to reliably smack your driver 200yds, and golf is instantly fun. Maude Snr. certainly enjoyed his golf aha moment immensely! So did I. Great video. Will send it to some friends for sure. Thanks to both of you. 🎉❤
This is absolutely brilliant, amazing to see you and your dad together doing this, I was absolutely rooting for him and buzzing when he gave it a smack.
I have improved my game tremendously with your lessons. I have not went down the you tube rabbit hole. I have stuck with your lessons and will continue to do so. Brought my score down from high 90's to my best score to date of 81. Plan to break 80 before the end of the year.
Once again a great video, thanks Danny. I’m 70 now and find your video’s very helpful being a more senior golfer. Keep up the great work and thanks to your dad.
Now, that was a lot of fun. Very simple to understand. More videos like this. You could tell your dad was getting excited, and that made me smile. That in turn gave you some satisfaction. That's why this video was cool. Great one, Danny. Hi dad!
Always look forward to these sessions with your dad as they are very relatable to my game as time tracks me down... efficiency and freedom to hit ...I'm happy with 200 yards inplay...thanks Danny.
That was very helpful. I used to play with a gentleman who was the straightest hitting player I ever had an opportunity to play with. Not very long but consistently down the middle. And he was full of wisdom too. Thanks for this and Thank your dad for sharing. Love seeing you work with him!
Another great video Danny which I used to good effect on the course today hitting much longer drives and hybrids than I have for a long while As someone almost your dad’s age I feel really connected to these videos It was nice to see you on the course on Monday and a privilege to shake your hand Keep up the great work
You never stop producing great content. I have/ had but it creeps in every now and then to keep me on my toes to same swing you are fixing. I will use this when it pops up as it’s far easier than the process I use to get back to the swing that works for me and will save a lot of shots left out there. And at times it’s a lot of shots to get back to something that works 😂
Danny this is such a great lesson!! I can't believe he improved his attack angle so quickly. Hitting it straight is such a big deal, and the confidence to hit it further will come. Love seeing your dad on here.
Hi Danny. A brilliant lesson. I am 78 years young and can relate to your dad's efforts with his swing. I will take this lesson on board and put the set-up etc into place. Thanks again!
Hi Danny, I watched the video yesterday. I played golf this morning and came 2nd in the comp. I did what you told your father. Thanks very much. Harold.
Love this video. It’s so much better to watch you improve your dad in real time than it would be to just watch you hitting different shots. We know you’re a pro. Your dad is like us.
to see the excitment on both your faces was truly infectious having lost my dad a couple of years back i smiled and cried in equal measure treasure these days danny
How great it is to see you teaching/coaching the man who taught you how to walk, speak, throw/kick a ball, write, etc.
Well played!
😁🙌👍

Your not very far from me Larry! Where do you golf in Sullivan?

I can't hit it that far but still derive huge pleasure from hitting easy high draws that find the fairway. Lovely to hear the ball being compressed sweetly when I and/or playing partners connects correctly. 90% setup issues?
Set up correctly and just bloody hit it ! Hitting rug wi’ cricket bat is the most supremely Yorkshire visual. Thanks to you and your Dad for this inspiring lesson. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Danny - I am 70 years old and can only hit the ball about 170yds but after watching your video I have identified exactly what I have been doing wrong, your explanation in the swing direction and body adjustments can only improve my distance. Hopefully I will come back to you with my new improved distance over 200 yards.
You will get there with ease😎🙌
This is super solid advice - it’s great!!! Have a blast applying it.
Fella I am 71. Getting o we 210 now, using the things Danny tell us. You can do it!
goodluck on the links
Had my time on the range but still did not improve my distance consistently, I still need to do more practice 🙈
Thanks Danny. I lost my dad last year. We used to go for a hit each time we caught up. T'was truly bewdifully to see this. Treasure your times together. Loved the tips. awesome as usual.
Cheers mate

Thank you Jalving 😁
This is probably one of your best lessons Danny. The position of the left hip explanation solved a few issues for me. Many thanks
Awesome to hear
These videos with your Dad and the way you can improve his game with simple little changes are brilliant. Lost my Dad 5 years ago and it's so heartwarming seeing quality Father and son time like this ❤
Sorry to hear that Matt, I’m aware he’s not getting any younger so am doing my best to spend as much time as possible with him
I hear you, playing with my dad was always the best golf ever. From when I was 14 until he passed away in my late 50’s. Miss him everyday.
@DanielMaude took up golf in my mid 30s to play with my now 79 year old father in law. Been bringing my now 8 year old for the last 4 years. Took it up to ensure my little guy has quality memories with grand dad.

What a wonderful way you ;have in teaching...it is so refreshing !
That was great! Lovely to see the relationship between you two. Your Dad is SO proud of you Danny and with great cause. Thanks for this.
Thanks Michael 😁
Email arrived Oct 5. and was going to pass viewing. Thoroughly enjoyed insights and the basic fundamental instruction. Glad I took 23:02 to view. I have watched a gaggle of Danny's videos. Everyone is like having the cookie jar on the counter and not in the cupboard. Easy to access. A good giggle I migh add....... You're a 120 yards off your goal. 80 years old and he hits final drive 196 yards in the fairway after his first drive with his son flew 161 yards. Club head speed jumps substantially as well. Pretty decent to say the least. What is notable is all....all the positive feedback Danny fed his Dad even when Dad was working on the "mechanics/position" of his goal.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and now feedback. Really appreciate it
Danny, I hope you appreciate how fortunate you are to have your father around at 80 yrs old. For him to want to improve his game at 80 is awesome. Good for you; good for him.
I really do Dale, thank you 🙏
Thanks Danny - great technical session but honestly watching you and your Dad interact was very moving - some of my happiest times were spent on the GC with my Dad and although he is no longer with us , I always think of him on the course - a brilliant watch.
I feel very lucky
Already my favorite instructor on here, but watching you work with your dad, is special and I think this will actually help a ton of people
Thank you ATA 😁
THANK YOU FOR A TRULY EXCELLENT, VERY HELPFUL VIDEO WITH A BRILLIANT, VERY CLEAR PRACTICE PLAN.
IT WAS GREAT TO SEE HOW YOUR DAD ENJOYED YOUR EXPERT GUIDANCE & HE MADE WONDERFUL PROGRESS .
I AM A SIMILAR AGE TO YOUR DAD & I WANT TO TRY AND FOLLOW HIS SUCCESS.
THIS VIDEO SHOWED HOW A SENIOR GOLFER CAN INCREASE HIS DRIVING DISTANCE.
I THINK THIS VIDEO IS PROBABLY THE ONE WHICH WILL REALLY IMPROVE MY DRIVING DISTANCE.
MANY THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU. IT WILL ENCOURAGE MANY SENIORS TO FOLLOW YOUR CLEAR ADVICE.
SUNDAY. TESTED DANNY'S RECOMMENDATIONS IN MY GOLF NET.
USED IMPACT STICKER ON MY DRIVER , WITH GOLF BALLS WITH A 2 CENTIMETRE DIAMETER CIRCLE USING BLACK FELT TIP MARKING PEN.
MAJORITY OF STRIKES IN CENTRE OF DRIVER FACE.
IF IT WORKS FOR ME , DANNY'S ADVICE SHOULD HELP OTHER GOLFERS.
AS DANNY SAID THE FOLLOW THROUGH JUST HAPPENS.
ONE VERY SATISFIED SENIOR GOLFER.
I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO CHECKING THE DISTANCE ON THE GOLF COURSE.
RENEWED THANKS TO DANNY & HIS WONDERFUL DAD.
Thank you Alan!
Simply Brilliant! I'm 72 and have been playing golf for 50 years. Your lessons have knocked 15 strokes off my score. Thank you very much. I love the lessons with your dad.
That’s amazing to hear David well done
Today I incorporated your suggestion as to shortening my stance, down a bit below shoulder width...it was raining, horrible day and I shot 90!. My longtime golf partner commented that he had not seen me hit driver and fairway shots so straight in a long time. Kudos to you!
@eegpas that’s great. Well done 👏
Thank you for sharing this video with the golf community. It is inspiring on a couple of levels. The father-son relationship is priceless, reminding me of my father and me when I was a teenager and now my recently retired son and I as a octogenarian playing golf together. Also, Danny, the video motivates me to continue pursuing improvement and that fundamentals are really important for so many of us. I'll be on my way to the driving range soon.
Thank you Zak 😁
This is impressive!!!Danny is the best to my by far I turn my hdc from 3 to a +2 watching this guy videos. From the bottom of my heart Thank you 🙏🏻!!!!
That’s wonderful to hear well done
Went to the range today. Definite improvement on my driver ball striking. I usually use a shoe spray to check my contact on the club face. Usually it shows all over the face. Today it showed almost everything in middle and the only deviation was slightly up on the face but still in the middle of the face. I even tried the weight shift move at address with my fairway woods of the deck and somehow even that made a big improvement in my striking and distance for my 5 wood. Only been playing for 2 years now and self taught of off many of yours and some other youtube golf trainers' videos. Thanks Danny!
I'm probably as old as your dad, and this tip on hip tilt and handle tilt as well as knee bend and body position is a boon to us senior golfers. Wow - simple small things make major differences. Thank you, Danny!
They really do Michael 🙏
So lovely to see the great interaction between you and your Dad. Your ability to simplify the swing and break into 3 steps is so helpful!
I will visualize the rug and cricket bat to hit it hard too!
Thanks Danny!
Thank you Jackie!
Hey Danny, Australian living in Thailand. I used your technique that you showed your father. I am 61 and definitely saw a nice improvement in my drives being straight and more further distance when i concentrated. Thank you so much and keep the lessons coming.
Thank you Geoff! Appreciate the support :)
I follow your channel continuously and think it is by far the best of all the golf channels on the net. Besides you teach in a good way and it makes my golf better, i get to update my English //Dennis from Sweden
Thanks so much Dennis
What a lovely video with your Dad Danny, not only really helpful but so heartwarming. Like many others I lost my Dad a couple of years ago and never had the relationship you have with your Dad until it was too late❤
Very kind thank you Jv 👍
Very touching seeing you coaching your dad. Golf is before all the pleasure to spend time with our friends and relatives not only performance, albeit your advices are so valuable. Thanks Dany from a French man over 70’s.
@pierreforet5313 thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Simple tweaks, big results. Why I look forward to Saturday mornings 😊
This information is golden, especially for us golden age golfers, the visuals for swing path regarding club face, brilliant with amazing results for all to see, well done to your dad and yourself Danny.
Thank you Dave!
Congrats Danny, excellent tips as always! And what a great complicity with your dad !!! Manuel from Italy 🇮🇹 🇮🇹🇮🇹
Glad you enjoyed it Manuel? Thank you
Brilliant video Danny! I’m 70 and swing pretty much like your dad at the start, glancing blow. It’s given me hope to increase my driver distance from the current 165 yds. Thanks.
Thank you Rich 😁
This really makes me understand the club position at impact! Thanks so much Danny💗 Always love these lessons with your Dad🥰
Glad you enjoyed it Shelia
What a wonderful session. Great to see you with your Dad. It was so heartwarming to watch. Not only that but the tips you gave him were amazing. I recently started pushing my left hip forwards and it’s made such a difference. I am still not as consistent as I would like, but am so much better than before and slicing less.
Love your teaching style Danny - simply the best on RUclips bar none!
Thank you Millsy 😁
What a brilliant video Danny. Great to see your dads improvements .
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant, and congratulations on being chosen as the best instructor by My Golfspy. Well deserved!
Thank you Blake, happy to help 😁
Your best lesson yet Danny! This is golf improvement in its purest form. Learn how to reliably smack your driver 200yds, and golf is instantly fun. Maude Snr. certainly enjoyed his golf aha moment immensely! So did I. Great video. Will send it to some friends for sure. Thanks to both of you. 🎉❤
Really kind of you to feedback Tim 🙏
This is absolutely brilliant, amazing to see you and your dad together doing this, I was absolutely rooting for him and buzzing when he gave it a smack.
Me too 😂
My favorite instructor but I love Danny and Dad even more. Reminds me of time with my Dad and now with my son. Thanks Danny.
Thank you 😁
I have improved my game tremendously with your lessons. I have not went down the you tube rabbit hole. I have stuck with your lessons and will continue to do so. Brought my score down from high 90's to my best score to date of 81. Plan to break 80 before the end of the year.
Well done Casey! Happy to help 😁
Once again a great video, thanks Danny.
I’m 70 now and find your video’s very helpful being a more senior golfer. Keep up the great work and thanks to your dad.
Really appreciate that Andrew
@@DanielMaude I think we all appreciate you and your coaching mate. Thank you.
Love your vids Danny , so straight forward , keeping things simple
Thanks so much Steve
Now, that was a lot of fun. Very simple to understand. More videos like this. You could tell your dad was getting excited, and that made me smile. That in turn gave you some satisfaction. That's why this video was cool. Great one, Danny. Hi dad!
Thank you Kim, always great to see him
Fantastic explanation that makes it easy to understand. Thank you
@chrisbarratt893 you are most welcome. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻
These are my favourite videos! Your Dad is the perfect student!!! Thank you for the set up tips, they are the key to success!
Thank you 😁
I’m 80 this week and am jealous of having an instructor like you. Well done.
You can do it!
What a great video in explaining the swing direction and how to adjust the body and direction of swing to hit repetitive shots with better distance.
Thanks Paul, appreciate the support 😁
Your dad is great. Also the graphic aids really helps. Thanks
You are very welcome
The best I've seen on this topic. Brilliant!
Glad you enjoyed it
Always look forward to these sessions with your dad as they are very relatable to my game as time tracks me down... efficiency and freedom to hit ...I'm happy with 200 yards inplay...thanks Danny.
Thank you Peter!
Just getting back into the game at 60 and this video is absolute gold..Very inspiring !
Really kind thank you
That was very helpful. I used to play with a gentleman who was the straightest hitting player I ever had an opportunity to play with. Not very long but consistently down the middle. And he was full of wisdom too. Thanks for this and Thank your dad for sharing. Love seeing you work with him!
Thank you Tdunn!
I love these nice going lessons with your dad. And your visual image imprints in my brain (hitting the rug!). Thanks again, Danny!
Pleasure
Another great video Danny which I used to good effect on the course today hitting much longer drives and hybrids than I have for a long while As someone almost your dad’s age I feel really connected to these videos It was nice to see you on the course on Monday and a privilege to shake your hand Keep up the great work
That’s really kind Trevor thank you, nice to meet you too
You never stop producing great content. I have/ had but it creeps in every now and then to keep me on my toes to same swing you are fixing. I will use this when it pops up as it’s far easier than the process I use to get back to the swing that works for me and will save a lot of shots left out there.
And at times it’s a lot of shots to get back to something that works 😂
Good afternoon. With your classes you make golf easier and more fun.
Thank you very much for your advice.😀
Glad you like them! 🙏
An absolutely brilliant lesson which all us senior golfers can learn from!
I really hope so
Danny this is such a great lesson!! I can't believe he improved his attack angle so quickly. Hitting it straight is such a big deal, and the confidence to hit it further will come. Love seeing your dad on here.
Thank you Joe 😁
Hi Danny. A brilliant lesson. I am 78 years young and can relate to your dad's efforts with his swing. I will take this lesson on board and put the set-up etc into place. Thanks again!
Thank you John!
Hi Danny, I watched the video yesterday. I played golf this morning and came 2nd in the comp. I did what you told your father. Thanks very much. Harold.
Wonderful to hear Harold
Love this video. It’s so much better to watch you improve your dad in real time than it would be to just watch you hitting different shots. We know you’re a pro. Your dad is like us.
@jefffletcher7335 thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻
to see the excitment on both your faces was truly infectious having lost my dad a couple of years back i smiled and cried in equal measure treasure these days danny
Very kind thank you Wilf
This was fantastic Danny. Loved seeing you run through this with old man.
Glad you enjoyed it Alastair, it was great fun for me too
Danny you are such a great teacher. Patient and succinct information. Well done. Wish you were in the USA!
Really kind Brian thank you
Amazing. The way the change in numbers is almost automatic. Nice one
thanks so much
