Alex hope you are doing my friend i love this video
Alex i want your assistance with flop shop explained and how to practice it please
@@demonlord5770😊ñ. My n I'm
It seems to me, that this is a very similar move to what Jimmy Ballard prescribed many years ago. It is his belief that if you stay connected to your torso with your arms, and maintain a triangle between your arms, between waist high back and waist high through, your contact will be more solid. It’s very similar to what I’m currently working on in my swing.
Agreed. That’s decent mate. Be good watching you smash balls with that in tbf 👍🏻
I couldn't break 100 before I found your teachings. I broke 90 yesterday on a par 68 course. I've learned a lot from RUclips golf teachings but most of my improvement has come from watching your videos over the course of only a few weeks. I will be buying merch from you as a thank you. Can't thank you enough really Alex.
Thank you so much!! So happy to hear that this is helping you!!
The same goes for me, Alex has done great things for me too.
Wow, you're doing great. Keep up the good work mate. Don't forget, if you can learn to chip and putt, you can easily get into the 70s with an up and down game that results in converting 40% of the time. I call it 2 chops and a plop game management. You can miss every green in regulation. As long as you're 4o yards from the green, and you get it up and down 40% of the time, that's 7 to 8 pars a round. If the rest end up as a chip and 2 putts, that's a bogey for the remainder, bringing you at around 83 (on a par 72) From there, high 70s are within reach once you hit just 4 greens in regulation. It's really about course management and playing within your limitations. The score card does not reflect style points, greens in regulation, or bombs off the tee. It only records a simple number of strokes, and it does NOT care one iota about how you did it. So practice that short game 80% of the time. Use the range sparingly for chasing a perfect golf swing is a recipe for driving yourself crazy in the pursuit. Short game short game short game!!! No one does this however because all those golfers at the driving range mistaking believe it's the equivalent of the squat rack in the gym and they must load on every plate to impress upon the world how strong they are, when in fact no-one gives a hoot. What they do care about is when their opponents drive them crazy with a killer short game and they 3 whack 7 greens a round, having then to reach for their wallets to hand over their hard lost cash to the short game master, who's more of a psychological warfare agent than a perfect golf swing aficionado chasing rainbows and unicorns.
This does nothing. Lol. If you look at Ben hogen address he’s right elbow isn’t even tucked in….
I love how your videos have a POV angle of what you are seeing in the swing! I’ve watched so many golf videos and you are the only one that provides the a POV angle. Please keep doing that!
Well done! I'm 85 and still trying to improve my techniques. Your videos give important instruction!
Thank you Alex! This made an unmistakable difference in my shots. Doing the curl & just turning the wrist gets me on the right path for the shot better than the method I used to try (bringing the right elbow in on the downswing). This was seriously helpful : )
This is MAGIC! 😳
I’ve done this for three rounds now and I’m hitting fairways with my driver and throwing darts at the flag with my irons.
Yes, it feels different (especially with inside of the right elbow facing outward & then turning the right hand so the “V” points at right shoulder), but … this is that one magic golf tip we’ve all been looking for. ☝🏻
Thanks, Alex
… keep up the good work.
Keeping your arm tucked has really, really helped my consistency. Sweeping and keeping the trail arm tucked is a game changer.
I have been watching your videos since this past spring and have applied a number of your teachings. I’ve been a mid to upper 80’s guy for 20+ years. Over the last month, using your teaching, I’ve been breaking 80 at my home course 3 out of 4 times. I play 2 to 4 times a week with very little practice. Your concepts are simple and easy to follow. I just have to be careful with how many I bring to any one round at a time, which is hard to do because of the exciting possibilities each time I play! Eliminating 6 to 10 shots a round is a big deal for me over the course of a few months and I have a new found excitement for the game! Thank you for sharing and making this guy more excited about playing and knowing I can improve my game as I get older.
Thanks so much for this comment, I really appreciate it and i’m so glad that you are improving
Out of the hundreds of YT videos I've watched, this is the simplest and most effective tip, change, adjustment I've seen. My dispersion off the drive has shank noticeably. I need more work with the irons to be consistent, but I've already hit the type of shots I've never hit in my life. Thank you Alex. 7/21. 11:37am
Shrank. I did not mean shank. Haven't done that at all since using this method.
Thanks Alex, yet another amazing tip, now I know where I am going wrong with my arms, I can now fix it.
Thank you Ronald!!!
Alex as I learn from you from year after year I enjoy watching your journey and your improvements in content and helping so many golfers.
I really appreciate that thank you so much for the continued support
Loved this lesson. No unnecessary waffle. I hit eight out of nine drives straight down the middle. Just need to sort out my hybrid 3,4 5 and 6 irons.
Played yesterday and tried the drill. Was a bit inconsistent with driver but irons loads better. Finished last 2 par 4 holes with birdie putts from less than 6 feet ok I missed them but my 6 iron approaches were the best I've hit in a long time. Will persevere with the right elbow
After I watched your video, I rushed myself to the range to experiment this tip. Wow ! It works. Amazing. You know , I watch a lot of golf instructions on you tube . I would say it’s the most improving tip I received since I play golf…
And I’m 68 …
Fantastic!
Many greetings from Germany, you have definitely improved my Golf Game.
I'm looking forward to the next season.
Thank You.
I really enjoyed this tip, I have been a slicer most of my golfing career, I have been trying to learn how to hit a draw. I have worked so hard a trying to draw the ball that I have lost my slice or fade, now when I want to hit a fade I’m having trouble.
Loving your teaching Alex. So many things that can go right to the course and really help.
Thanks for the Cheat Code. Player perspective was key for me. As a singe digit HC, I was definitely struggling to achieve it. I look forward to a round in the 60s this year and almost did it yesterday with this move. Thanks Alex, like the way you keep it real.
Cant wait to try this out tomorrow. Seems so obvious when you say it. Thanks Alex 👍
You're 💯 right, the trail arm is key for consistency and power. You the Man!
This was an excellent video Alex! I am very aware of the duty of the right arm in the swing and as such, I set it just as you suggest. It's surprising how much better my strikes are when done properly. I also know when it leaves my side because an errant shot is the result! Good Job Alex!
The Hank you John!!
Finally a first person camera explaining golf mechanics!
Dude! I started playing a year ago. This past winter I was shooting 125+. Around February I started really watching your videos and practicing what you teach. Last month I shot 100. Thanks to your videos! Thank you Alex. Keep ‘em coming. All the way from South Carolina USA. 🤘🏼🏌🏻
I started doing this last week with the video you did about the placement of the toe of the driver to the tee. Worked like dream. Best I drove the ball ever
Yes Paul!! Magic!!!!
Best golf tip. I have been reminded of this over and again but never explained this way. I made instant crispy contact
When I watched this last night I thought yeah right. Wow was I wrong...I've been struggling with ball striking this season so far (lots of slices and pulls) and was generally shooting high 90's as a result. Took this tip and shot an 87 tonight with some of the straightest ball flight I've seen from myself maybe ever. New happy sub here.
This definately makes sense!! Think i am dropping my right shoulder too much on my irons. I hit a fat shots alot ! Definately gonna try this! Great video!
This is one of the best tips I've ever had Alex. Ball striking improved a lot but curiously all my shots are going slightly left now which is easily sorted.👍
Alex, thank you for this great advice. I tried it and boy, what a difference.
Great video, and it only takes about a bucket of balls to get used to the new right elbow set-up. Changed my ball striking much to the better!
First timer! Great swing tip! Thank you bro!
Happy to help!
The increase in power and control was unexpected. Excellent tip!
You are my favorite you tube teacher to watch. You make it simple. Thanks.
❤️❤️🙌🏼🙌🏼
I can't wait to try this. Simplifying things into a 'cheat code' really does help. Body kinematics isn't easy.
3 things:
1. Great lesson; I’ll take this with me to the range after work today! 👍🏾
2. 🚨GOLF NERD ALERT🚨. Are the Fujikura “Ventus” line of driver shafts the greatest, or what?!?!?🥰 (Project X “Hzrdus” a close second!)
3. I love how Alex is growing out his “RUclips-PGA-Pro” beard. (Shielsy, Finchey, and Mattie need to have you on for a scramble! MAKE IT HAPPEN, ALEX!)
All the best, Alex! 🙌🏾
Great question!!!! Keep you eyes on the channel
Ventus Black I put on TSR2 for this season, lets just say, regular 300-320 yard bombs ;) stiff. Love that shaft, feels great.
Tucking in the trail arm helps tremendously with chipping and pitching as well.
Left arm straight, right arm tucked.
Alex, I like your videos, and I would like you to make a video showing how to swing with the shoulders while keeping both arms straight. I played my best golf doing this, but I have forgotten how to do it properly.
Thanks, John
Sure, i will definitely try and cover this 🙌🏼
it helped me today in Lake Tahoe
Thanks Alex. This tip is helping rid my slice and correct my swing angle
That's the setup and move right there that will seriously improve your consistency. Great video Alex!
This is what Bryson taught in his swing basics videos, right arm/shoulder turned external and right forearm turned internal.
I used this at the range today and I was so shocked at how straight the ball was going. Specially as I slice the ball when driving all the time!!!
Thanks Alex
Won’t this always lead to a strong right hand grip?
No. The key is to keep your elbow close to the body at address while maintaining your usual grip, as he demonstrates.
I can't wait to work on this at the range!
I am subscribed.....the elbow and right arm is how one hit ball correctly 😊👍🙃
OUTSTANDING Teaching here. Thank you Sir.
You are very welcome
Great explanation! Very Ben Hogan-y. Ben Hogan said point your elbows at your hips, literally getting the same setup that you end up with. I definitely will incorporate your ideas.
Thanks for this lesson! If I see your video 2 years ago would have save me so many bad shots.
Thanks Alex great tips. Would you please consider playing your "watch me hit this away" shots in both normal speed and slow motion so we can really see what you have taught us, onya mate
Yeah course!
Very helpful. I will take this with the towel drill as well to really drill this home. For fairway woods, I assume the irons approach still applies since you’re not really hitting up off the deck?
Used this today. Hit some of the purest shots I've hit in years. Knocked one to 10 feet on a par 3 and made birdie. Can't wait to get back out. 🏌♂️
So clear to understand and so easy to learn from! Incredible results! Thank you for making so many fantastic videos!
Starting doing this and it has been a game changer for me
Can you do a post on topping on ball strike it small practicable bite size chucks and include a strike in slow mo to show how a full complete swing looks.
Awesome tip. Thank you for taking the time to show us your tips. You make them so simple to learn and understand. I Can actually feel the difference in my swing.
Thank you for your content. You are an excellent teacher, every video I have watched has been spot on.
You are very welcome
Very interesting...never heard this before! Gotta try it.
Reading Ben Hogans lessons he says swing the club like throwing a ball sidearm. I didn’t understand. Now I do.
Outstanding!! Looking forward to trying this out Thursday! “Keep them tips coming!!”
Love this tip it helped me to a nett 67 in our monthly medal competition two shots ahead of the field. It definitely helped keep my ball in play. I will be adopting this method and looking forward to reducing my handicap even further. Thanks Alex.
Glad it helped!
Thanks! This video has done wonders for me. I didn't have one fat shot today, I
could tell I gained club head speed because my distance improve. I found I needed to stand a little closer to the ball. Only adjustment I had to make.
Thank you so much John!!
Fantastic lesson. Thank you.
Wow awesome golf tips Alex!
Timely video. Great contact when done properly. My miss with this move is often a push - open clubface - difficulty squaring up the clubface. Any tips for getting the clubface back to square without reverting back to an over-the-top move?
Finish with your belt buckle towards your target. You're not finishing through but only going 3/4 of the way
This is a great video. I've been working on keeping my right arm closer to my body.
I have appreciated your videos and perspective. Wondering if you might cover the legs, both left and right in backswing and downswing as this seems to be the key to both stabilize as produce power and consistency…? Thanks
Used this technique in my game today. Great drives. Now I need to work on short game. Cheers
Thank you Francis!
Do the same with your left arm. Turn the arm clockwise until the shoulder can go no further then turn the hand back to normal position.
Hi alex started playing 4 years back iam 62 years from india..i struggling with those 4 5 footer putts..plz give tips right from the grip to swing path and more
Brilliant once again Alex. So easy to understand.
Will doing this help me to stop pulling my iron shots?
Yes it should do!
Best video thus far Alex! Simple tips!!
This has helped me so much it changed my game totally your awesome 👍
Great video and "cheat code" Alex. I was out yesterday trying this and really improved contact. AND I found it helped massively with pitching - had the dreaded s*anks for months and this looks like the fix 🙏
Great tips and I appreciate the level shoulders with irons!
Alex. With Meronk tucking in his left armpit of his shirt,would you do that with the trail armpit sleeve?
Brilliant tip! I just subscribed.
Such a helpful tip Alex. A game changer. Thanks very much
played a quick 9 after work after watching this video & was 10 yards longer messed up my game in a good way 😀
I’ll take it one step further…I’ve been suffering from inconsistent contact forever (who hasn’t?)…to get an idea where I’m supposed to be at impact, I set up at impact…and as soon as I did that, I asked myself, why not just start my swing from here? So I did…and voila…I was going from maybe hitting 4 or 5 out of 15 balls solidly, to 13 or 14! Not sure why we address the ball in the position we do…makes so much sense to start where you want to be when you contact the ball! Try it and you’ll thank me later…
The funny thing…while hitting a draw I unknowingly got my right shoulder down sending the golf ball flying. I realised it when I saw your video. Would this apply when using a 3 wood and hybrid off a tee ?
I see the nice divot you hit there with your iron. When I hit my irons I tend to take very little divot. I'm hitting the ball ok but little divot. There historically have been two schools of thought on ball position... one is like Nicklaus... play every ball off the left heel. The other old school thought is move the ball back in your stance as you move to shorter irons. What do you subscribe to and what is the key factor here? Also, I tend to keep my wider stance up to my 7 iron and go a little more narrow with 8, 9 and wedges. With the narrow stance I feel I have less power. I am now 62 years old. Hogan said he wished he had 3 right hands. With your bent right elbow, do you try to extend the elbow thru impact to increase power? Btw I have always enjoyed your videos...you're very "down to earth" and do nice instruction. Where do you do most of your videos from... .England?
You’re really good to watch. Probably my favorite on golf!
Very kind thank you!🙌🏼
Thank you took me 51 years to discover this great instruction
This is a good technique. also, there are bands you can buy to put over both arms and keep your arms connected and close to your body. When I was a kid, I would put a plastic coat hanger over my arms for the same feeling.
This trail arm placement tip 🔝
It does work great. This coupled with the tee in the grip of the club (as per your earlier video) is super. Thanks for this video.
Yes this is great to hear!!
@@AlexElliottGolf The thing is, these two tips help me get the club back in the right place consistently. You presented them from the golfer's viewpoint, so I can replicate them in the setup and in the takeaway. When I go to the range I practice getting them correct on shot after shot. Thanks.
When you turn your forearm are your fingers pointing more to the ground or more horizontal?
I’m a literally doing this in my pre shot routine on every shot and it has made a huge difference in my ball striking! Thank you so much
Thanks Alex, I’m going to take this the courses.
Excellent tip. Thanks
Man ive seen it explained before but not like this. Awesome
Another brilliant tip Thanks Alex🤩
This is So.....Awesome!!! Thank You!
This is good stuff, Thanks Alex!
Thank you Alex
Thanks. This has been the answer for me, I just have to stick with it, as you say. Love the channel. Keep it up mate.
Thank you Pete! So happy to help you with your game!!!
If you wanna try learning this, put the driver hood in right armpit and try to hold it there until impact.
Whats the best mental approach to having 2 different swings with irons and woods? I use Sam Goulden's videos and method of the square to square swing for my irons, I recently got a driver lesson and use a open to close swing. Lately it feels like I can't sort them out on the course.
When you address the ball with an iron, should the club lay completely horizontal to the ground. It seems to me there are times where the toe of the club is not touching the ground? Beginning with the heel, maybe 3/4 of the iron touches the ground, but the remaining 1/4 that includes the toe is up off the ground. And when you strike the ball, is the club totally parallel to the ground at moment of impact?
