Fix Your Swing Path INSTANTLY

- In this tip I teach you how to fix your swing path for long straight shots. This means you will shallow or flatten your plane allowing the club to attack from inside out curing your over the top swing once and for all.
Pick Up Free Samples of The Body Swing here: bodyswing.com/freesamples/
Most people don't shallow or flatten their plane. Instead, they swing over the top creating an outside to in swing path. Depending on the face, this can cause pulls, pull hooks, pull slices and if the face is way open even push slices. All of these shots are caused because you are trying to hit the ball with your arms which sends the club over the top.
If you want to finally shallow or flatten your plane you need to not only stop trying to hit the ball with your arms but you also have to follow the drills near the end of this tip. This is not easy. This will take some work but if pros are on the inside path you need to swing from the inside as well. As soon as you start swinging from the inside you will finally fix your swing path allowing you to start hitting long straight shots.

Okey, I need you to listen to me right now. I have maybe seen about 40 000 videos here to upgrade my golf swing, I have played for 2 years, 15 hcp. Non of them have helped me, NON. I usually come over the top and I could understand why. I went to coaches but nothing helped. But this one, this Video has changed everything. I went to the range today thinking about what you said about using your legs rotation. I have a lot of rotation in the backswing but nothing before impact. Every shot i made was completely pure and the distance was crazy!! and now its winter in sweden but it doesnt matter. So thankful, so so thankful!
Very good. Light bulb moment. These take your game to a whole new level. Keep at it.
This is another magic I’ve learned from you Paul! You’re an amazing coach. 👍🌹
Thank you very much.
Paul's system, body swing, has improved my game immensely!
So glad you are doing well. Great to hear. Keep at it.
Paul, your instruction; amazing! You have a real talent on simplifying things. Thank you!
Thanks so much. Simple is the key for sure.
Thank You. Great explanation, looking forward to trying this out.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Paul,
Cannot believe how much my game has changed since watching your channel and the free samples.
Practice everyday.
Fantastic! That's what I want to hear. Great job.
Best tip of all time. Love how you also incorporated the "Lift and Shift" lesson. It all came together today. Thanks a bunch Sir Paul.
Happy to help! Glad you got this one. This is huge.
Just brilliant Paul! Thank you so much for sharing this tip. I had my best round for a long time yesterday by concentrating on this.
Fantastic! Great feeling when you are getting it. Now don't think you are invincible. You need to watch this: ruclips.net/video/cNhIyhi136E/видео.html
Awesome video as always. It's very helpful.
Glad to hear it!
Great lesson Paul. I always thought that keeping my head still, rigid in fact, was key. Watching this today has shown me why I have exactly what you describe - a push slice. Thank you for posting this and I will get to work on it.
Thanks so much. Too many people staying still with their heads. Move and like magic you feel way more power and get the club shallowing in the downswing. Keep at it.
Thanks Paul..another good tip!
Thanks you. I appreciate it.
Brilliant Paul, just brilliant. I haven’t seen anyone find so many ways to explain a drill the way you do so that it makes sense. Many many thanks.

Hi Paul I would like to thank you for your help you are definitely the best teacher I have EVER watched and now the only one I watch I was at 6 gone back to 9 but slowly getting there for about 6to 7 holes a round doing the effectless swing lol then hitting with arms but I definitely seeing the progress today I hit several drivers 250 metres so thank you SO MUCH best Intructer EVER
Wow, thanks! Glad you are heading in the right direction. Great feeling when you are on track that's for sure. Keep at it.
Thanks Paul! I really enjoy the videos. They are helping me a lot!
Glad you like them!
Paul ive looked at a lot of tips on over the top none have worked this tip is amazing thanks Paul your the best on you tube
Thanks so much. I just keep it simple. This allows people to understand it which is half of getting it. Keep up the good work.
Awesome. Now that my hip action is improved I suspect this is the weak part of my swing. Can't wait to try it out at the range tomorrow!
Yes, this is a huge part of it. It will take a while to get used to it. Once you do you are starting to copy pros.
This video is perfect for me. Thanks for keeping it simple. Will try your advice this weekend. Long time golfer and slicer here.
I appreciate your time.
Thank Paul
Simple is the key. Curing slices is one of my specialities. Watch me do it:

Excellent recommendation Paul. I finally got something correct. Thanks again.
Perfect!
This is the key, i've struggling for years to overcome this. Thx Paul
Yes, big key here. You really need the right path. Get this and everything changes.
Great Tip Paul!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
Been playing for just over a year and I found your tips a few weeks ago. It’s been a huge improvement using your method. Driver is still a work in progress but my irons are so much more consistent and getting great contact
Glad you found me. Glad you are doing well. I love hearing it. Just remember that driver is longer and people see better player hit it 300 yards so they think hitting hard is going to get you there. It's not. You need to swing looser not harder. Legs and hips are the power soruce. Watch this tip:
ruclips.net/video/bLskGy7rulo/видео.html
Get the wrists hinging and rehinging with these drills:

This is step 1. Get that then start adding body to straighten it out.
Thanks Paul! Great video
Glad you liked it!
Spot on, Coach! Great drill! l used to send it over-the-top for years without knowing it. Thanks.
Happy to help! Glad you said used to. It's really not that hard to fix. Just takes a little work and you will hit the ball so much better.
@@paulwilsongolf ⁰
I've watched a lot of your videos. I think this is the best one.
Yes this a good one for sure. Glad you liked it. Thanks.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.Made all the difference to my swing . Thanks again
Glad it helped. That's what it's all about. Thanks.
No one has ever explained it like this to me. I recently took lessons from a very reputable pro and he did emphasize the inside to outside swing but not in the same way you do in this video. Thank you.
I say things differently for sure. Just got to find someone who you mesh with.
you are my new hero... so very simple head trick for such a MONUMENTAL change...ty ty
Glad you found me. This is a big one. You get this and your whole game will change.
I can see the light much better now can't wait to try it.
Very good. This is vital.
Great video Paul!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
I always enjoy watching your tips thanks for always sharing 😄
You are so welcome!
Thanks Paul. Good explanation and really help. Also when I am at the impact position, I will make sure that my hip turns at least 45 degree with my right heel up about 4 inches or so. In this way most of my shots are pretty straight.
Very good.
Thanks Paul, now I see what has been going wrong with my swing. I’ll start working on it this week. 😊Thanks again
Very good. Got to fix the path. Get that and you whole game changes.
Thanks Paul! Watched this tip at lunch. Went to the range after work then played 6 holes and what an immediate difference!. I had always kept my head steady and in the middle of my stance. This was definitely one of my missing links (no pun intended). Amazing!
Great. Exciting when you see results. Move your head for sure. This is an athletic movement. No other sport has you with your head still.
Watch:
ruclips.net/video/EDlwfq_ZBvE/видео.html
Great tip Paul thanks I need this thanks
Happy to help
Wow, you may be the best teacher ever. It seems like your simple drills address all the common problems us amateurs suffer from. Thanks so much
Thank you. I appreciate it. I have always thought "fast and easy" from my very first lesson 30 years ago. If it is too confusing people will never do it or remember it. Glad you found me.
Another fine lesson I never come over the top now, I concentrate on my elbow, I was really bad, but got the message, it was really weird at first but feels nice now
Very good. Little work and it's fixed. Now you can take you game to a whole new level. Good job.
thankyou paul, another very useful tip that i will try next time i play, regards from england uk.
Very good. Attacking from the inside path will dramatically change your game.
Paul I feel like I owe you money. I went to the range after watching a lot of your videos and you’ve absolutely changed the game for me. I was using a hybrid single plane setup and it just was not clicking. I set up lines/targets and hit all but two out of a large bucket while hitting those pure. Really appreciate it as I was starting to get frustrated with the game.
Glad you are doing well. You can certainly offer your support over at bodyswing.com. I know what frustration is all about. After I started taking lessons it took me over 10 years to get it back and I was working on it daily. I have literally tried everything and went to some of the best teachers in the world. I got it back when I stopped trying to hit or help the shot with my arms. No one ever told me that. This is why I tell it to everyone.
Great tip coach 👊
Glad you liked it! Thanks so much.
I struggled with reverse pivot for the last 5 years. I didn know what a reverse pivot was but I knew I had it and this video confirmed it. This tip fixed my swing in 1 hour at the range. Went out and hit all fairways and greens. Thank you Paul!
Great to hear! Getting the right path is huge. This will take your game to a whole new level. Keep at it.
Omg thank you thank you. This is the video I needed 15 years ago. I never knew why I was hitting the ball so bad. I am the over the top puller. I never new that the head needed to be behind the ball on the downswing. I took your advice an went to the range and hit 2 buckets. Did what you said and omg the difference was amazing. The ball jumped off of my clubs. It seemed to give me lag and my finish looked amazing and my confidence has never been higher. So from 1 Paul to another thank you. I can’t wait to shock my friends when we play Awesome tip.
This will certainly fix that over the top swing. Just imagine how much better your game will be now.
Just tried this last night at the range. Works for me . Great tip
Good stuff. It's all about getting it and making that breakthrough.
Ditto ditto ditto another great video of course most of us do struggle coming over the top. Flexibility as I get older has been the biggest issue
Hi Paul ...
I just knocked 10 shots off my game with the loosen the wrists video
43 points no scratches off 19 gross 84
All thanks to keeping the wrists loose ....omg the compression I was getting was amazing ...
Love your videos
Thank you
Paul from Ireland
That's great. Loose wrists is a huge key for sure. Game is getting exciting now. You better watch this one:
ruclips.net/video/glKnfVbhuXo/видео.html
Stay focused and keep this stuff simple.
I have been working through your Bodyswing method and discovering a lot about how the hands and arms have hurt my swing over the years. I have found that with a good shoulder coil and my arms and hands turned off the above tilt you mention seems to happen without thinking. It is so different to the rushed downswing feel I have when my arms are dominating. The particular drill where you swing to the top and hit the 7 iron 80-100 yards has been the biggest eye opener for me.
I think the challenge for most golfers that started as adults (me included) is that turning off the arms is probably one of the hardest things to be able to master. Trusting your shoulders to create the backswing with your arms along for the ride as passengers is probably the single hardest concept to grasp but is basically the key to true distance and accuracy.
Anyway congrats on your fantastic Bodyswing method which to me is the very best method out there. This is from someone who has tried them all.
Thank you for your support and kind words. I truly appreciate it. Yes, that is a great drill. It totally takes your arms out but you need to keep doing it until you get used to it.
Yes. I can't believe how this method works. The pros are gifted physically and with hand eye coordination and flexibility. Those of us less gifted and/or older would enjoy golf far more using this method! Zen golf is also complimentary with this system.
It is hard because swinging without arms goes so much less in yardage but it’s much better contact. It’s hard to loose 30 yards on each club but I need to tell myself to do it anyway.
You may do that at first until you switch to using the legs and hips as the power source. You are not good at it. So keep working on it until you are feeling the legs and hips. I fly it consistently 280-285 which is plenty. Do this drill daily for a month or more: ruclips.net/video/x1NehGi8tyI/видео.html plus keep building the swing and making it great. You've come a long way since wanting to quit so lets make it even better.
Wow Great tip sir!

The missing piece. I worked on touch knees for a week then club parallel to ears for week. This brought it all home for me!!!
You've got love it when you get all the pieces. Great feeling. Now you can move on to mastering it. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for explaining it top notch style.
My pleasure!
For the average golfer like myself it's that synchronisation of staying behind the ball & transferring the weight to the front foot that needs the work. Reverse pivot is something I picked up trying to replicate JM Olazabal's swing back in the day, it's a hard habit to break! Great tip again Paul.
It is tricky. This is why pros do it and ams don't. Stay focused and keep doing it. The payoff is in the future.
Damm good advice Paul! keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
The real secret to hitting from the inside and shallowing. Thanks Paul!
Exactly yet people just keep swinging over the top. This stuff is just so easy to fix it's mind boggling that golfers are struggling out there.
Nice tip! I've been trying to keep my head from moving all this time.
A lot of people are which has been a huge problem. You wouldn't play any other sport keeping your head still. So if golf is sport your head would move.
Thanks Paul. I have really been struggling with this. Will give it a go.
You can do it! This will dramatically change your game. Focus only on fixing this instead of working on too many things. Get this then move on.
@@paulwilsongolf So far just practice swings with no club in hand. Just trying to get used to the tilt on my downswing. Feels less tense and more powerful with a better release. Hoping this will improve my strike.
Oooh can’t wait to try this, another great tip Paul, the way you explain thing is so simple and relaxed. You remind me so much of my guidance counselor in junior high, the nicest guy John niebauhkee ( most likely not spelled correctly)
Glad you like the tips. Thanks so much.
What a teacher sir
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support.
What a fantastic tip, if I’m ever in Vegas I am gonna sign up for your school
Glad you liked it. Thanks. For sure. Look me up.
Thank you, I have come over the top for what seems like 150 years, lol. Will try it.
Try this too: ruclips.net/video/m8FxSZSmKEw/видео.html
For yeeeeears I was told I hit from the top. Had no idea what that was. Always hit slices. But with your help and a video I shot of my swing, I saw immediately what coming over the top was. My entire shoulder and right arm start the down swing. Keeping a head tilt back and starting swing with my lower body has literally been a swing changer. My challenge is keeping my arms relaxed. Thank you so much for your insight and wisdom Paul. For whatever reason, your ability to speak about the golf swing makes sense to my brain. Who wants to buy my golf lag club 😂
Yeah hitting from the top will never work. The great majority of people are doing that and guess what? The great majority swing over the top. See the correlation? I am not hitting anything. I fire the lower which gets the tilt between the axis and flattens the plane (simple physics). Glad you are on track now and will never try to hit from the top ever again.
Thanks Paul heading to the other lesson next.
Keep us posted. Don't work on too much at once.
Very helpful. Thank you!
Glad you liked it. Thanks.
Great tip,thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
I love this guy
Thanks so much.
Another great video
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
I suffered with a reverse pivot for 30 years and never knew it. This is the best advice ever to fit the problem, I can really relate to this problem. Thank you for posting this lesson. Maybe now I can fix it after struggling for years.
Glad it helped! That reverse is not fun. Try this one too:
ruclips.net/video/m8FxSZSmKEw/видео.html (secret tip)
excellent lesson..i will try it...
Please do! Path is vital for great shots.
Love the videos.
Could you do a video on the main grip, stance and swing difference between irons, hybrids and driver?
Thanks. Here is the neutral grip I teach: ruclips.net/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/видео.html also, ruclips.net/video/o55Cl-byCq8/видео.html
Fantastic instructions
Glad you like the tips. Thanks for the support.
@@paulwilsongolf went out today with my 8 iron and the ball striking was awesome thanks to you. You certainly know how to teach. Thank you.😀🙏
4:23 - Manual Tilt! Last year I began this exact transformation, and I had to do it 2 phases. First, I had to purposefully introduce and over-exaggerate trail-side lateral bend (tilt), but I lacked even the slightest hint of good hip rotation. So I had good tilt, with the dreaded early hip extension. I spent months working on hip rotation, but only ever got about 15 degrees open on my best swings. Then one day Paul, the mad scientist golf pro instructor guru, tells me, "You got to push that lead knee straight back, not towards the target." And bang, a sense rotation was born, like it fell from the sky! So I had good tilt, better rotation, but my arms were not sync'd well with all that. So I spent 3 weeks working on it and I'll know if any good came from it on my next range session video. Hopefully this week.
Yes. You have put in the work. The payoff is around the corner.
Your explanation so good and easy to understand.thanks master paul
Glad it was helpful! Stopping an over the top swing is vital to take your game to the next level. Keep at it.

Yes, I did watch this. I just don’t feel my body doing this. It doesn’t happen all the time. Maybe only twice in a whole game. I’ll try and remember this. Thank you. Merry Christmas.
So do it every day in practice swings until mastered. I get the feeling you are trying to work on it only at the range or while playing. This is not enough for it to take hold.
i ended up buying his driver swing lesson and i can't recommend it enough. I was so focused on hitting the ball and taking a divot, coming over the top that I ended up getting stress fractures on my ribs on my right side. This swing has completely changed my golf swing. I went from a 22 handicap to a 15. Cant recommend his method enough. I payed 10$ (CAD) at the time and it was worth every penny. His youtube lessons are fantastic but there's little tips in his payed lesson that make it that much easier. Treat yourself and buy the complete lesson to make it that much easier to get this swing down quick. Thanks Paul!
So glad you are on track and doing well. It just takes a little understanding and a little work. The payoff is huge.
been working on these few tips recently and won my first medal on Saturday.. never understood my swing as much until I watched these videos.. outstanding
Nice work! I love hearing it. Keep at it. Simple is the key.
Thank you so much, Paul. For all the great tips. I did improved a lot in my swing.
Yes I need to do that with my head. I never thought it was a problem. Now I know.
Yes, move it.
This was a great lesson and I will try to focus more on this tomorrow
One other issue I have or so it seems why I have a left pull or hook is I have a feeling my right arm / hand dominates my downswing and I close the face and come over the top.
Exactly right. So stop hitting. You need to check your grip and make it neutral. Then you would have strength in this hand to hit with: ruclips.net/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/видео.html watch this too: ruclips.net/video/K5wPQn-3Br4/видео.html
Ever been in your car you give it gas you go backwards. That's the concept.
What a genius parable. Thanks a lot Paul 🙏
Glad you liked it! This is certainly the concept. Few fire the lower that hard though so they don't get it. In this case I make them manually tilt. This gets a big piece then they work on firing the lower so they don't hang back too much. Sometimes you need to work on things in steps.
Hi Paul been trying this for a couple of weeks. Its getting there, needs more work
Keep at it. The payoff will be there in no time.
Paul! Come back to Kingston for a week please!!! Great video man. Maybe I will hit a fairway this weekend. Hard to believe it's been 25 years since played Cat.
Thanks. Probably not going to get that way anytime soon. Was it 25 years ago. Wow. Now that's crazy.
You're giving away some great instruction
Well, covid is allowing me the time to post tips. I have wanted to do this for a long time. I do have a membership site with over 1300 tip so I have been shooting just not posting here. I will keep posting and making people understand the swing in simple terms because clearly most people are still confused and not improving. Thanks for your support.
@@paulwilsongolf I'm on fire now because of you, no more heavy draw. Next time I'm in Vegas I'll book an hour with you
Thank you for this drill. 41 years of golf and I never had a clear understanding of how the BODY swings the club. I had a great swing and then took a lesson. Keep head straight killed my game. I bought your course but the changes didn’t give me INSTANT gratification so I gave up. I am 72 and now being dedicated to your course, my goal is to shoot my age!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR INSTRUCTION AND “HUMOR”.
Been there. I went through exactly this. First 2 years trying to get it back I hit 1,000 balls per day, every day for 2 years hitting it sideways. Then 8 more years working positions. I only got it once I turned me arms off completely. Stay focused. Whatever you think you've done I have done 100 times more. So follow exactly what I say and show. Do daily practice swings. Every swing counts now. You've got this.
You sir are a genius. The way you break it down is so understandable. I wish I could afford to train with you for 3 months, I believe I’d be a scratch golfer. I freaking love you videos!
I appreciate that! I can actually work with anyone, anywhere in the world now with my new app. It is live, video coaching. You can find out more here: bodyswing.com/coachlink People who have used it are loving it because now they know what to work on. This is not swing analysis. This is live video coaching. Take a look.
For some reason my buddies still won’t tune in even after I went from a 25 handicap to 11 (first year playing golf, not bad), preaching your videos. They’re looking for a quick, and expensive, fix from a local golf instructor...but as you’ve mentioned before, fixing an error with another error helps no one! Another great video!
Their loss. Let's get you down to low single digits and they will jump on board.
His tip about staying behind the ball and what that actually means was eye opening. I played in an outing a couple days and while not hitting everything perfect, I hit some shots that I haven't hit in 20 years because I was not staying behind the ball. I could not slice when I did it properly. I actually didn't embarrass myself playing with 3 strangers. I think I am going to adopt Paul's swing method. I'm getting older and my body is not as fit as it used to be and I need to hit with no effort.
That's great. So glad you tried it and saw some great shots. Just keep working on it until you can do it without thinking about it. Do lots of practice swings at home.
Paul.. Thank you for your valuable tips on golf... I am still trying to learn from you. Old habits die hard. Fighting against human nature.
This is why you should be doing daily practice swings at home without the ball.
Best video ever!
Thanks. You're back. Better catch up on all the tips I've posted.
Yes i noticed the shadow of my head moving forward in a practice swing then i saw your video,problem solved.I,m also doing your other drills namely swing arc back and through and hip rotation drills,i can only get better.Beforehand i,d been watching every other teacher which only confuses you forgot to mention hitting balls feet together.thanks S/J
That's great to hear. This is a big one. Fix this and you have a whole new game.
Thank you very much from INDIA
Most welcome! Glad you are getting out there. Tough times right now. Hope you're being safe.
A friend pointed out a good way to shallow the club and hit from the inside is to think and feel like the arms are low to the ground in the downswing. I tried this and found it helps tilt the upper body and power the lower body.
Seems like this would be okay. I keep telling people you can't hit the ground behind the ball unless you are attacking from the inside. If you were over the top you would hit the ground ahead of the ball. I know you are not trying to hit the ground but essentially that is what you are doing by feeling low hands. If it works for you keep doing it.
I’m a newbie to golf and have really taken to your teaching style and approach to body mechanics. I like your sincere and genuine energy. One question: I’ve seen some videos that talk about hitting the “ball before the ground” and you are emphasizing hitting “behind”. Da you clarify? And thank you again. I’ll be going through all your videos and likely your course.
Thanks for the support. Yeah, I have seen those too. If that acutally worked wouldn't everyone be taking divots and hitting perfect shots? I am not hitting anything. The ball is hit first due to the right fundamentals. If you try to hit the ball you will be trying to figure this out for 30 years. Stop hitting the ball in any way with your arms and you will get it in no time.

Thanks in advance for the support. I truly appreciate it.
Paul you must hate over the toppers...LOL Great tip and will work on it later today!
Well, I don't hate them. I just wish they would fix it.
I've watched dozens and dozens of RUclips golf tutorials videos. All different teaching styles, methods and tips. I've been to the range dozens of times as well trying to apply what I've learned.
After watching your videos just tonight, I feel like I have a better understanding on the bodies relationship to the swing. Which is paramount in this sport.
Hopefully, when I hit the range tomorrow and apply these changes, I'll see a big difference and improvement in my swing. Thank you so much!
Glad you like how I describe it. This is key. You need to see it and understand it. I try to make it simple so there is no confusion. Let us know how you do.
Ok, I always go back to these videos when I’m off and I’m losing track of which ones I’ve used and which are best for me. This was in the sequence I use.
I fire the hips, to keep behind the ball I tilt to my right because I was pulling dead straight left which was obviously coming over the top.
Now I have the problem with snaphooks😂. Tryin to figure how to get through the swing without goin back to over the top
Snap hook is simple. You are attacking too much from the inside and turning it over. Watch:

You tilted too much.
First class presentation Paul! Thanks for sharing! One question if i may please. Today i tried to get right knee kicking in but struggled to do this.
Having now seen this video i wonder if my not staying behind the ball longer means it is more difficult to push off the right foot/kick in with the right knee or am i just not getting it ?
You need to stay behind it as you fire the lower. If not, you will come over the top so you need to keep working on this. Give it more than one try. Anytime I change anything I think 1 month until I can groove it. Just look at the back of the ball as you fire the lower and hit the shot. If so, it will keep you behind it without thinking about it. This is one of the ways I got it years ago.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
...Shift and Tilt...a great kinda descriptive grabber thought for this swing...
Yes, and simple too.
I played with a group of guy recently who all sent it over the top and they literally would aim for the trees (left side) with the hope of the face opening and slicing it back into the fairway. Even the PW would "cut" slice back into the greens. It was wild and it was all 3 of them.... I'll be honest with you I don't think any of them drove it farther than 200 yards and they were in their 30s, I am in my mid 40s. -- Apologies Paul, but I forgot to mention I noticed that a lot of them set up with super open shoulders and I think that compounded their issues more.
I'm so glad to have stuck with the body swing and I am able to smack irons with relaxed arms and a moderate body/hip turn. Even just moving my hips 50% or what I perceive as 50% ( I am still new to this technique) I am able to carry 165 - 170 with my 7 with a high ball flight and hold greens. When I was arm's hitting Paul I grooved a moderately consistently swing and could play to a 85 scoring level from 6400 but that was when I was playing my best. But my ball flight was soooo low, anything after an 8 iron would skip off the Bermuda greens. Now I am launching it MUCH higher and holding greens.
I haven't quite gotten back there yet as in scoring, but I rarely practice my short game (never) and hit the ranges maybe 2 times a month, but I am consistent with your drills and that helps out a lot. Being in Florida I play year round and each time I have gone out there I have gotten better since staying with the body swing. This is with me going through an iron fitting as well to graphite shafts.
One last note, my Stokes gain on my irons (per shot scope) vs 10 handicap has increased by 3 strokes in the last 5 or so rounds. It makes a HUGE difference.
Lmao...it’s funny that every bad scenario you described was me!!! Very good explanation of exactly what it is you’re doing in the swing. I’ve taken lessons and my instructor didn’t get as in depth as your videos....and the sad part is that this video is free.
Glad you enjoyed it! I just say things in a certain way. I need it to make sense. Glad you got more out of it. Now it's up to you to do it.
I was wondering why i was hitting pulls and pull slices now i know why i think its all about tilt and staying behind the ball gonna try that head drill next time at the range
Yep. Tilt left = swing left. Sooooooo tilt right.
I love this guy 😂
Thanks so much. I just keep it simple and memorable so people will understand it and actually try it (for more than 3 balls).
