    His approach is so practical, that you wanna kick yourself for making the game harder on yourself than it needs to be

    I'm so glad to listen to Mike in this video. I hope people understand that golf is played from hands and backwards. Great video. 👍

    I coach kids and have them do toe-up to toe-up to learn driver swing (and others). But the idea of dropping the foot back to clear hip is genius (in my humble opinion). Great video!!

    • @arijoseph2282
      @arijoseph2282 Год назад +1

      I've turned this drop back feel into every swing. always struggle with shifting forward on transition and I think this solved it.

  • @danielwenderlich3438
    @danielwenderlich3438 Год назад +3

    Great video! I have always wanted to take this approach to slow down my swing and control the face. I was always in the mindset you have to swing full speed to reproduce the swing in practice to the course. Just a few weeks ago I decided I was just going to go shorter swings and super slow swing and control the face. I was amazed at how I was able to feel and thus make slight changes with my hand to square the face up. I was hitting the ball way better and the ball was going pretty far and was barely swinging hard! This was the light bulb moment , if I could hit it this well with hardley swing if I just worked with this practice and increase my speed I would be so much more consistent. I think ever golfer wants consistency and control in their golf game and Mike practice method has this so right!

    While focusing intently on mobility, strength and speed drills this winter, I'm brought back to earth with this incredibly insightful video of the bedrock of what creates an efficient, effective way of using the tool.

  • @craigg2058
    @craigg2058 Год назад +5

    It’s so true about the hands. There isn’t thousands of RUclips tennis coaches teaching you what to do with your arm, wrist, angle of attack, path, hips, foot placement just to hit a cut spinning backhand. In other sports as well, we don’t analyze a video of ourselves hitting a baseball, maybe the elite of the elites might? With that said, I’m off to watch another video on ‘the perfect takeaway’ for the hundreds time.

      People want to believe they can 'think' their way to good golf as it doesn't look very athletic at first glance. It's not true of course with the swing but golf IS more mental based than most other sports.

  • @geoffw8565
    @geoffw8565 Год назад

    Excellent video ! I was taught many years ago by ex Ryder Cup player and his assistants that you are only as good as your hands. The hands are the ' engine ' of the swing. The ethos was ' educated hands ' It didn't take too long before I could hit high/low fades/draws etc. Down to 4 handicap in just over two years.

    I agree it's all in the hands, but it has to be in conjunction with a positive weight shift forward, or else flipping will be inevitable.

    As a baseball player when I was a kid taking up the game. I did the foot back drill on my own. It was how I would setup in the batters box. I learned quickly that foot back drill was golden. I could hit it as hard as I wanted to and it would go fairly straight.

  • @Gumballa87

    The first golf book I picked up when starting had ZERO! Absolutely NOTHING about face control in it. But boy oh boy can I place the tip of my toes parallel to my hips now ten years later...

  • @arijoseph2282
    @arijoseph2282 Год назад +1

    100% Been watching the pros lately and how much time they take to set their hands before swinging. I think Spieth is still setting them when he takes the club back

  • @fergusfitzgerald977
    @fergusfitzgerald977 Год назад

    Beautiful and simple yet so hard to do consistently - golfers need to start the game with this kind of training - on the range with a trainer for months if necessary then and only then - out onto the golf course - some day maybe that will be how it's done!
    Hope so!

  • @TheBooze13
    @TheBooze13 Год назад +1

    This stuff is so important in the long run. I played in the low 80s for a long time. Last season I decided to get better and shot in the 100s most of the season. But now I’m swinging better than ever and very excited for this season. Getting better is a journey it’s not gonna happen overnight gotta break the swi mg down to crawling in order to run again

    Great lesson for beginners. The lesson taker gets a win they can take to the course. Doing that they can break 90 even if they are not great with the short game, and if they were great with the short game they would break 80. I know. But they soon want to emulate their favorite pro and the game goes wild and the score goes way up. Human nature. But a good way to start and they are then ready to get their next lesson. I would like to be a golf instructor.

  • @johnrush7331
    @johnrush7331 Год назад

    JMO, the best players are those with great hand/eye coordination. Can have the prettiest swing and fastest body turn in the world but if you cannot square the club face up correctly it's game over.

  • @DIOS10
    @DIOS10 Год назад

    So is it a feel as if the arms / hands go and the body follows ? Rather than main body trying to set arms / hands In relevant positions ? Because it looks faster with less body motion .

    @dagreatstoney.5869 Год назад

    This is wisdom 👍

  • @Weshopwizard
    @Weshopwizard Год назад

    So the whole point is to get the feels of squaring the face and then, once you get that feel, to gradually build to a bigger swing?!

    Mike how do you learn to control the face of the club do you have any drills for that.

  • @dseveno8254
    @dseveno8254 Год назад

    I tried squaring the club with my body for years, with disastrous results. It wasn't until I had clubface control that I started playing good golf.

  • @sirtogii5216
    @sirtogii5216 Год назад

    I guess the closest you get to the just turn through swing was Moe Norman? Not that the dude didn't have excellent hands but he tried to eliminate the different arm vs shoulder plane as much as possible if I'm not mistaken. I think the truth Mike speaks here is often overlooked though. Yes, there is a LOT of speed to gain by moving your body efficiently but not much point having it if your hands are not good enough to utilise it. Get the priorities straight.

  • @hammockmonk

    Wish I’d learned this years ago. I still can’t consistently drive the ball.

    • @Omnis2
      @Omnis2 Год назад

      I used to go through 6-7 balls per round. Forget all the body/turn/plane stuff and listen to Mike's beginner stuff and Jonathan Kim Moss, too. Like Mike says here, all that body stuff doesn't help anything when your swing outruns the face.

      He did on the range, I saw it at Sherwood in around 2009. Super fast 220y and then tempo super slow like 80y. Hit like 10 shots full motion up the ladder like that same swing length only varying tempo, toughest drill I ever saw.

  • @breakthrough8628
    @breakthrough8628 Год назад

    Respectfully disagree this will lead to a proper progression of a rotation based swing. This will lead to bad habits that will be super hard to break. Its better to do a feet together and body turn only while learning
