This is the single best golf tip in my entire 57 years of playing golf. The impact of this simple adjustment is mind boggling for me. It made a huge difference in my round of golf today. Thank you!
That’s so great well done! Thanks for coming back to share your success on the golf course. Let’s keep it going 💪👍🏌️♂️
I agree, this is a stunning revelation that IF ONLY I knew it 50 years ago.. It explains and solves so much!
😂😂
That's what all Golf Pro's want to hear and see.
This might be the Christmas miracle in June that I’m looking for.
Well i'm not sure it Qualifies as Christmas but it's a game changer for many !
Played golf yesterday…i practises this before every swing and just calmed it down a bit and focused on what he said..I hit my first 90!! Christmas miracle indeed!
Exactly the words I would have used!!!
I think I know what this gent is talking about. Thank you I’ll try this for sure!
Your significant other might disagree! Too much golf.
I can forgive the ‘what nobody’ title for such a useful lesson. Thanks. (Tried this today and hit better than I have for ages, especially irons. Once again thank you).
It’s a bold one lol :) I try avoid the over embellishment unlike others. Simple works more than most of the time. Cheers! 🏌️♂️👍
Alex, a great tip, thank you. I’ve recently “rediscovered” this as part of my set up, and what a difference it makes! My ‘feel’ is that I’ve gone “long arms”. The arms are structured as you recommend yet no tension in arms/shoulders. Thanks again for stepping through the whys and how’s of this set up tweak. Cheers!😊
Fantastic! That sounds spot on, and yes.. the longer arms feel is solid methinks! Keep at it!
I tried this yesterday and shot one of my best rounds of the year. Iv have been struggling recently with getting stuck in the downswing and not releasing the club properly, this seems to have really helped iron these issues out. Amazing how much difference a simple set up change can make, thank you!
That’s so great well done! Cheers for coming back to share your results too. 👍🏌️♂️
Used this tip at the driving range yesterday. Absolute game changer with getting my ball striking consistent. Thank you!!!
Bro, I stood up, no club in hand, and did what you said. I’ve never felt so connected in my set up, and throughout the entire swing!
You are a genius. You explained it so well.
Wow, what a difference! I can’t wait to get to the range.
Absolutely amazing and simple. I’ve never known or heard this before which is scary. I checked PGA swings and you are spot on. I checked mine and it was the bad position you mentioned. I changed it and it instantly brought unity to my arms. It’s like not moving your hips when putting. Such a key thing but no one ever teaches it. TY!
Glad you enjoyed it and that it resonated. We can get bogged down with way too many elements in this silly game 👍🏌️♂️
I was all sudden shanking the ball and for the life of me couldn’t figure it out. I rounded my shoulders a bit at address which basically does what you are saying and it established a consistent center strike on all my clubs….an absolute godsend! Great video. For people shanking there are all sorts of videos about open club faces or early extension…I knew I wasn’t doing that….thanks again for this video!
This drill helped me more than all the claseses I have already taken (Im a golfer enthusiast from Argentina I have this arm problem you described, i put your tips in play today and not only I hitt all my ddivers innthe fairway but 20 more yards with each club!! Thanks thanks thanks a lot!!!
I agree. This is the best swing tip I have EVER seen. Thank you Alex
I can not say how I thank you for this lesson.. I've been playing golf since 2 years ago and finally I found the cause of my lack consitency in my swing. I applicate your instruction in this video and I have solid contact with golf ball in most of my swings.. again thank you and cheers from Indonesia (I am sorry for my bad english)
Glad it helped and you’re English is A LOT better than my Indonesian lol! 🏌️♂️👍👍
Im a weightlifter who also casually golfs and Ive always had a problem with my chest getting in the way of my arms during the backswing. This drill did WONDERS for my consistency, well done sir 👏👏
Yes it’s come in handy for bigger chested fellas too. Glad it resonated and well done for giving it a try. Keep at it 💪🏌️♂️
I’m right there with you!!! Having lifted for years have fought this and really till watching this I didn’t realize what I needed to do to try and work around it.
Glad to hear this as I also have been struggling with this. Can’t wait to hit the range tomorrow!
謝謝！thanks a lot! This video just let my swing more naturally and I found that I can really make the swing smooth and released the club
I just tried 4-5 times swing as what you teaching, totally understand the key point you want to show us. It’s an natural body movement.
Thank you and very happy that it “clicked” some things in your swing. 💪⛳️
Porzak teaches the "giving blood" of the right arm to keep the right elbow in place. I've been working on this heavily, right arm rolled in and left arm a bit pinched in and its made a HUGE difference in ball striking and consistency. Dont be afraid to exaggerate this. As you get more comfortable, you'll find your sweet spot of keeping "connected" in your swing. This content is vital IMO and I've been to multiple "coaches" that never mentioned this at all even though high hands and the chicken wing were a fault of mine for a very long time.
Very well said. And yes, too many teachers and players skip over this type of stuff. But get consistent with them and the consistent shots are just easier :) Cheers!
I am a 10 handicap with goal of getting to 6-8 range. I came across this lesson and it made perfect sense to me. I took it directly to the course and wow...hit 50% greens in regulation and flushing shots that I was previously struggling with...helped me with shot alignment and my speed of play....cant wait to play more rounds and work on improving my consistency with this method of addressing the ball and swing. Thanks! I'll be watching this channel a lot!
Well I’m glad you’re with us and well done for getting that result right away! Keep with it and let us know. I’m sure other lessons of ours will resonate and help a good amount too 💪🏌️♂️⛳️
This advice is amazing and never talked about. You’re the best! I’ve been feeling disconnected with my arms and couldn’t figure out why. Tried this at home and now it feels connected! Can’t wait to try this at the range and on the course.
Delighted to hear that this resonated and please let us know how it feels on the range! 🏌️♂️👍
Always great practical advice from Alex.
❤⛳️
By coincidence I focused on this change yesterday for mobility and solid shots and it helped.
This tip is in line with DeChambeau's slight arm twists on chest in one of his swing tutorial videos.
Well that’s great! Keep at it 👍🏌️♂️
Super! Enfin j'ai compris! Merci..I had finally understood the way to hold my club..Great lesson👌🏾
I had to go straight to the course and try this, as a 20 handicapper, I had 5 pars in 9 holes. 5 over overall. It does work!
Well done indeed! Thanks for co I g back to let us know and keep at it! 💪🏌️♂️🏆
This is the best lesson I've ever watched period!!
Took this to the range and practice area today and ohhh my what a difference.
With sincere thanks Mate.
Dave in Thailand
Wow that’s great to hear! Much appreciated and thank you! 🏌️♂️👍
I've been having issues with my irons lately and didn't know why. I knew it had something to do with the back/down swing because both felt disjointed...exactly as you mentioned. I'm so relieved I found your video, it corrected the issue immediately. Thank you so, so much!
Great to hear and we’ll done for persisting. Keep at it 👍
This instruction is so well stated and so perfectly accurate…thank you Art of Simple Golf.
Delighted to hear that and appetite. 🏌️♂️👍
it's the best exercise and the best feeling that I have just discovered thanks to you😀
Brilliant. Thanks. I know exactly how both swings feel and hadn't worked out the cause. Thanks for making me aware what has caused it and how to prepare better.
Happy to help!
I watched the video and it really makes sense. Heard it in different ways over the years but it just didn’t register enough I guess. TRIED THIS YESTERDAY-DRAMATIC IMPROVEMENT! Thank you
Well done and thanks for coming back to share. Glad to hear is resonated and we nudged you in the right direction. Cheers! 👍🏌️♂️
I'm very thankful for this golf tip. It has made a huge difference in my game already. Thank you Alex.. for loving the game, and sharing with us struggling amateurs 😊
Happy to help! And this is a great key to find some constant feels. Keep at it! 💪🏌️♂️
Great video. Lots of videos on here about keeping elbows together but most will not have your in depth on why and how,leaving you with a rigid and tense upper body. Love your explanation on this.
Thank you for sharing
Delighted to hear that! Thanks and much appreciated 👍🏌🏽
I watched this video two hours before playing and wow what a difference it makes. Shot one of my best scores ever. I’v never had a video make such an impact on my game so quickly. This is basic fundamentals but so easily forgotten along the journey of trying to figure out the best golf swing for me.
That is wonderful to hear and well done indeed! Thank for coming back to share your success and keep at it!
Most golfers do overlook the simple keys.
Great tip. Love your work.
Thank you for your effort.
Took this to the range.
Worked from the first shot.
I've put the drill as my pre shot routine.
Gained distance and accuracy. Give me a couple of weeks. Thanks again
Eric
This makes total sense..I can't wait to try it. Nice Video.
This is something I do on the range and it's a "Eureka!" moment when I see the ball flying straight. For some reason, though, I slowly revert back to my old elbows-out setup and the struggles begin. Then I think of the "Iron Byron" swing machine and imagine trying to make two arms into one, almost like an elephant's trunk. Since it's the right arm that tends to fly away, it helps to attempt to keep the right elbow as close to the left as possible. It's amazing how many times I have to rediscover the things that work and it was refreshing to find this video that reinforces keeping the elbows together.
All of us have our 2-3 tendencies that we need to stay on top of. Top pros alike. Knowing and having the precise “fix” or feel is key. Keep at it
I have been thinking about this aspect. Glad I found your video. thanks
Wow! That was precisely me you were doing there. I’m now seeing and feeling the difference. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I readjusted my arms following this video and WOW started to nail my irons and driver, great video. It’s going to take a few rounds to get used to the extra distance, I’m literally 2 clubs longer than last week 😂
Sounds like a good problem to have! Keep at it 💪💪🏌️♂️🏌️♂️
This simple adjustment has transformed my swing. We know there are a lot of instructional videos out there but these are gold
That’s the goal at least. Keep at it 🏌️♂️👍
This just changed my life and I haven't even swung a club using your tips yet. I can feel it in the air.
That’s fantastic to hear! Let us know how it goes when you do 💪🏌🏽
Thanks for sharing! Much appreciated, you make it so simple.
Glad it was helpful and resonated 🏌️♂️👍💪
Ill try that tomorrow thank you! ... Update: it worked!!!!! Thank you. It absolutely works. I did not do the drills, just thought about your chest advice...what it did for me, is that I hit almost a whole bucket with my 4 iron consistently nicely...it feels strange at first, but it slows my swing into a nice rhythm and it makes the plane of the swing consistent. Personally, I have watched a lot of advice recently on the YT, and it messed up my swing, but with this advice, my swing is not only back, but much better and making solid contact.
This is without a doubt one of the greatest tips of all time. Fantastic. Power and accuracy. Thanks!!!!!!
It really is a game changer for the majority I apply it too. Keep it and thanks for sharing b💪🏌️♂️
Can’t tell what a difference this has made for me . Thank you ever so much
I’m very happy to hear that. Well done and glad to have nudged you in right direction 💪🏌️♂️
Your videos have improved my game so much. My son said he was impressed with how much better I am striking the ball and the distance I have gained. Unfortunately the golf season in Canada is winding down....just when I felt I was making some progress...😢 However I will keep watching your videos all winter🥶 ❄☃️Cheers!
Awesome tip and concept! Thank you!
exactly what ive been struggling with thanks bro🤙🏾🤙🏾
Amazing tip. I always feel crammed in my swing. Now I know why! My arms being pinned at my sides made it very uncomfortable. Now I feel there is more room to swing. You are the only instructor I have seen to address this. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome and glad it resonated. You’re not alone 🏌️♂️👍 And let us know how it goes putting into action.
This is the best golf tip. I’ve gotten in years. Thank you very much. I can’t wait to take it to the driving range tomorrow. My swing is very much disconnected.
Have fun and let us know how it goes
Yes,excellent points that I am now keeping my elbows/arms pointing into my body....with right arm more tucked to the body. Hitting fairway shots longer and more consistent. 👍🙂
Good stuff and keep at it. Thanks for sharing 🏌🏽💪
That's interesting. Recently I was watching a putting video and I saw this identical tip. I've had difficulties with hitting my putts solidly so I thought I would try this. It worked effectively. Until I watched this video, I hadn't thought of applying this method to the full swing. I'll try it. Thanks.
Let us know how it goes
Went to the range today and this small change was profound. I mean really profound. I am a larger chested fellow and this was the tip I needed and to get straight and deep balls consistently. Thank you so much!!
Marvelous! 👍🏌️♂️💪 well don and keep at it
Oh, thank you Alex, for such a clear demonstration. I have always thought I was doing this correctly but was really connecting to the side of my chest. One of my tells, especially if I hit the rare (but devastating s#*!k) was my lead elbow finished high. This correction has fixed that entirely, and the improvement in swing and contact consistency is mind blowing. Cheers.
Wow. This worked great for me. I've gotten much more consistency in flight direction, for both woods and irons. Previously I had tried to tuck my elbows in but it resulted in pulled and hooked shots.
YES! This was what i was missing , thank you o thank you
Great tip. Instant results. Balance is better as well.
Thank You Thank You for this video. I am a 3 months old 30 handicap and learning golf. Had severe consistency with my iron and I used your tip today and all my 9 holes I haven’t duffed or toped the ball
That’s great to hear well done! 🏌️♂️💪
Fantastic advice! So easy to understand! Thank you enormously!
This is some of the best type of "blanket" instructions for the general public. Fundamentals that are universal for all swing types. My head spins when i see 20 hdcp players on the range rehearsing a golf swing by doing big exaggerated squatting moves and so on.
3 months in golf and you have just changed my golf life, thank you sir for your service. What a great video.
That’s too kind but I’m glad it helps a few things click for you 🏌️♂️👍💪
Thank youuuu!!!! 😊😊😊
Thank you sir I appreciate all of your hard work bring us great information and how to use the information. I needed to hear this, this will definitely help me because I’ve used the towel never understood what it was doing to my full swing. Thanks
That’s great to hear and I’m confident it’s going to help you move forward. Give it a go and let us know how it goes 🏌️♂️⛳️
OUTSTANDING!! Thanks for developing this!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this. So insightful information and beautifully demonstrated. Danny Maude says the same thing. Other than you two PROS. it's not much talked about. I personally have been smushing my arms against my chest to get that elbows close together look and i basically cant play golf. For years by doing what you recommend i feel like a whole different person at setup. So free to turn and also swing the arms NO more like a block of wood.
Excellent! It's all there in the set up! When I look at Ben's arms they seem unnaturally "twisted". Now I understand why. Rather than my elbows leaning out Ben's arms are more straighter, pointed to the grip. More like a pendulum. Thank you for pointing out something that I've pondered on but never really understood.
Exactly! Glad to hear cleared something’s up for you and let us know how you get on in practice 🏌️♂️👍
Totally ID with this, the arms often wreck what I thought was gonna happen, great explanation and clearly demonstrated
I tried this last week with great results thank you Alex
Well done and thanks for letting us know 👍🏌️♂️
Thanks Alex 👏👏A Simple but excellent explanation of how to stay connected
Sorry I missed this. Very happy to hear it resonated. Thanks! 🏌️♂️👍
I can't wait to try this. That is exactly how my arms look like! Hopefully this will help me keep them straight and get me to the correct distance to the ball at adress.
Good and remember to not let too much tension creep in
Great tip. A major breakthrough !!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great lesson! Makes an enormous difference - thanks.
You're very welcome! 🏌️♂️⛳️
Excellent , thank you !
Excellent tip,nobody tells you,not even the coach..gem indeed Akex ,thanks.
This helps with right arm getting stuck behind you in Downswing also!
This actually makes a lot of sense. Will definately try this in my next round of golf
👍🏌️♂️
Smashing the ball. Thanks
Absolute lightbulb moment this! Thank you! Just did some chipping drills with this also and had some great centre contact
Sounds good to me! Well done and keep at it and keep us posted:)
gold lesson thanks. its true that nobody tells you about this!
💪🏌️♂️
自分は両脇を確り締めて打つのを意識していますが窮屈でミスショットする時もあり悩んでました。
両腕を胸の前で合わせる方法を試してみます。
ありがとうございました！
Yes this should help a lot! Let me know if good. 🏌️♂️👍
Thank-you so much. First being shown this, even though I've asked and wanted to know this exactly. Especially helpful for women.
Thank you kindly! Glad to hear it resonated🏌️♀️
I went to range and hit 2 buckets of frustration today. Not bad shots, but weak and inconsistent. I know what impact position should look like, but I’ve always struggled to get there. I reverse engineered everything and ended up at the arms at address. This video speaks to EXACTLY what I’ve been struggling with and the fix seems so simple. I can’t wait to take this to the range! Thank you!
That’s great to hear. It sounds like you are on the right road. Keep at it and remember golf is a non linear journey:)
The best piece of coaching on You tube works great for the driver too. 👍
Glad you think so!
Love this
Alex, this is brilliant in the simplicity of the explanation to the clear steps to implement this change. I immediately felt the difference in the swing and most importantly the results. Also had success with the mental reminder of "structure with movement or flow" while avoiding tension. Thank You!
Exactly the goal of the lesson and indeed our mission. Keep with it and glad you’re with us! 🏌️♂️👍
This will give you enormous power without effort.
Hi Alex, Thanks very much for this tip. Tried this arm position setup on the course today - Absolutely fantastic results. Also gained more than 20 metres with the driver and an effortless swing. I will go to the range tomorrow to confirm that they were not flukes.
Well done indeed! I doubt they were were flukes. Just don’t try and force for distance etc. 🏌️♂️💪
Just to confirm that the ball striking consistency and greater distances were not flukes. I just had to remind myself to retain the feeling of the left arm being attached to the chest.
If the result of my round on last Sunday is any indication, the improved distance on my drives, (I know where my drives can normally reach) I am hoping that this will eventually translate to lower scores.
Alex, Thanks again.
Makes perfect sense. Amazing
Glad to hear it
Yeo it works, Thanks for this insight.
Glad it helped 🏌️♂️⛳️💪
Very nice info Alex, can’t wait for my range session tomorrow.
Let us know how you get on!
Thank you 🎉
Brilliant lesson!!!
Why thank you and hope it helps 🏌️♂️⛳️👍
This tip is gold dust! Yesterday, I took it to the course and I played so much better? It is very Ben Hogan and works a treat. Thank you.👍
Great job! 💪👍🏌️♂️
Thank you!
Simple & efficient! Excellent drill, many thx
Glad you like it!⛳️🏌️♂️👍
Wonderful. Thank you very much for an excellent tip 🙏
You are so welcome!
For such a simple thing this has made a massive difference to my swing immediately.
Indeed it can yield many benefits! Keep at it 🏌️♂️👍
انا من المغرب اشكرك على الشرح الجيد ان هده الفكرة جيدة و كنت محتا جا اليها شكرا جزيلا.
I love Marrakech! Happy you like the golf tip and hope it helps. 💪🏌️♂️
Great tip...
Thankyou for teaching me I just started playing golf and thanks again for teaching me
No problem 👍
Alex brilliant tip. I tried the Ben Hogan arms together (forcing them together ) and of course it didnt work.Your tip is fab,the upper arms just gently sit on the chest .Many thanks
I like this so much!!! So true, THANKS!!!
Good to hear and I’m confident it’ll help:)
Brilliantly, clear explanation as always and a tip I’ve never seen before. Maybe this is one of my issues. I’ll certainly be trying this out. Thank you.
Let us know how you get on
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf I will but it certainly will take a little time to adjust. Changing 29 years of bad habits! The hardest game I’ve ever played and it’s not getting any easier as I approach 60! 😉😂
Hi Alex!
Definitely your tip changed my swing!
Thank you so much!!
Great to hear!
Love that awareness thought, nice tip
Glad it was helpful! 🏌️♂️👍
