    Here's what I like about these videos..they don't inundate us with tips. Sure there are a ton of things you could do to improve a swing, but I love how they pick a couple things to focus on and really drive them home to us. Too much info and people won't absorb any of it.

    Yes, i look at hitting fairway woods and hybrids as using the bounce of the club to my advantage. Good golf tip. Thanks Dave.

  • @anothergolflesson
    @anothergolflesson 3 года назад +15

    I'm a little late to the show here but I tried these tips my last two rounds and I was hitting my fairway way wood better than I had for a couple of months. Thanks for the great tips Dave.

    @georgenicolai455 3 года назад +6

    I tee off in 47 minutes. Just watched Dave's excellent hybrid/fairway wood video and I will be using his advice on the course momentarily. I will definitely widen my stance in regards to hybrid and fairway wood play... Thank you, Dave!

  • @bobadkins7377
    @bobadkins7377 3 года назад +3

    Excellent! Thank you. Just recently I have begun to widen my stance beginning with my driver, and have had very promising results. I always tended to fall away from the backswing and get exactly as illustrated here. I’ve been getting the same positive results with my three wood by widening and it naturally steadies my stance. I dreaded the three to the extent that it stayed in the bag, now I’m getting sweet yardage with it. These sessions are great, thanks for posting.

  • @holmeswilliam
    @holmeswilliam 3 года назад +3

    I tried those tips out today with my hybrid and 3 wood. I topped the first hybrid but I felt I wasn’t full committed and was trying too hard. The next 3 wood was probably a career best. Lovely ball flight as well. Same for the hybrid. I actually think this is one lesson that’s done the job for me. Thanks Dave! 👍

  • @Whitm0rejames
    @Whitm0rejames 3 года назад

    Watched the video earlier and went straight to the range and it worked can’t thank Dave enough as I’ve been struggling with a shank for the last 18 months with my woods off the tee and have been using a 4 iron to tee off with.
    Hopefully with a bit more practice at the range following Dave’s tips I’ll get my driving back 😊👍🏻

  • @charlesharrison6291
    @charlesharrison6291 3 года назад +2

    Dave excellent video, with everything so clearly explained. I will practice positioning with the rescue club opposite my shirt logo and with the 3 wood opposite my arm pit. I often struggle with the correct position in my stance. Looking forward to next weeks video.

    @lisadunning3017 3 года назад +1

  • @paulgarrod4617
    @paulgarrod4617 3 года назад +1

    You have done it again. I was very reluctant to use my woods off the fairway as they had a mind of their own and this cost me shots. Simple alignment, ball position with a good steady swing is all it took. Thanks for tip and today tried it. Holy moely! 3 wood straight from the deck 4 times! never in my chuff have I achieved that. Thanks Dave my hero.

    Another tremendously simple and easy to understand lesson. Thank you Dave. I will take this to the driving range along with you other lessons and slowly work on them. In four lessons I think I’ve discovered four things that will help my awful golf game. Now if Liam will take these to heart and try them out! 😜🤷‍♂️🤔

  • @gerdamarsh
    @gerdamarsh 3 года назад +1

    Dave & Liam, thanks so much for these tips. I hit 3 hybrid decently, but as Dave mentions I top 3 wood off fairway 1/2 the time. Would love to be more effective as 20+ extra yards can come in handy. Will try!

    Love it big Dave I’ve been hiding from hitting these exact clubs since buying them as I top the life out of them on the fairways or the tee box .. as Omp said to Liam if you don’t hit them you’re never gonna feel confident with them .. this video is invaluable to a novice / high handicapper like myself 🙌🏻🙌🏻

    @martyepperly5803 2 года назад +2

  • @rosscowan3612
    @rosscowan3612 3 года назад +2

    I replaced my 3 wood with a 3 hybrid far easier to hit, like you said Dave I found the 3 wood a bit all over the place!! I play it slightly up from centre of stance and play it like an iron balance neutral and weight into left leg! Great video! Wedge play would be a great help for me

    Good information. I love my three wood and hybrids and I hit them well, so well I just added a six hybrid to my bag. When you widen your stance it looked to me like you opened your body up and flared your back foot which is what I do. I try to always remember don’t over swing your club let it do the work.. thanks
