I've been golfing for over 60 years. Your instructions are, by far, the very best I've ever encountered. You're the best instructor on RUclips. Please keep it up!!!
Thank you so much Bob! Certainly will try to keep at it :)
It only takes 20 years to understand and to get what you are teaching about the effortless downswing. Once you hit a ball as you demonstrate and when it all falls into place it's mesmerizing and the light goes off, it's not about hitting at the ball more like collecting the ball. You are no doubt the best instructor on 'The You Tube '
Please keep making content like this. Cheers Jamie
Very glad to hear it resonated and thank you for kind words. Will certainly keep at it :)
I have used this right hip move falling back now for two days and it has brought a feeling of flow ,rhythm & power that has come an gone over the years. And it is working with woods,hybrids, driver, and irons.
Historically a fade to slicer now the slice is gone. 83 years old 5 handicap from middle tees. Absolutely best lesson for me ever. Thanks
This has made me smile and delighted to hear that! Keep at it and thanks for coming back to share 💪🏌️♂️
I was a scratch golfer in my 20's. Had a thing called a family and just now getting back into golf in my 50's. Rusty as a nail but getting the feel back and it's ALL THANKS to this channel!!!!
Your instructions are so intuitive and make so much sense. Please keep providing great content.
love the comment about compartmentalizing. heard several scratch golfers tell me the same thing - the swing shouldn't be broken up into parts or 2 swings, it needs to be one fluid motion (swing)
Yes it’s the goal. It’s easy to forget :)
Best golf instructional videos on RUclips. Many thanks.
Very kind and much appreciated! Glad it resonated with you 💪🏌️♂️
about the only vid ive watched (and like most ive watched 100s) that actually made me think about using my own natural movement correctly. I had the general idea of where the power should be applied but couldn't quite get it right.... this vid triggered something in my head that just works, cheers.
Delighted to hear it resonated and helped to click something for you!
This is the part of the swing I struggle with the most. This is a great video to understand the feeling needed in the star of the downswing. Thank you for this video, this is a game changer for me 👏
Thanks and it certainly does give an “a’ha” moment feel :)
Just got into this channel a few days ago and am totally addicted. This is now my 100 % "GO TO" instructional video channel. Concepts are simple and straightforward and consistent with his focus on having a natural flowing swing towards the target....not hitting at the ball with 5 or 6 segmented swing thoughts. Have been practicing only 2 techniques for the last 4 days. Currently playing off a 7 handicap and plan is to get it to 4 by this fall. Thanks so much for your dedication to simple instruction. I watch about 20 other instructional golf channels and don't need them anymore, keeping it simple and fun and natural and flowing and getting my instruction here now. Cheers from Canada
Thank you kindly and I’m delighted to hear it’s resonated with you and that you’re with us now! What you mention is that car toy the purpose and goal of TAOSG. I’m sure we can keep helping you progress here on RUclips or our online Club.
Keep at it! 🏌️♂️⛳️💪🏆
This is perfect timing! It is just what I started working on. I am thinking shift my hips to start the downswing but you’re saying just let it fall and turn witch sounds good to me. Will add that feeling next time I head to the park to practice. Thx
Hope it helped!
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf as I said in my reply it did! Got 8 guys headed out to play a course tomorrow that gave me a little trouble last time. Fully expect to play well. Watched a couple more of your videos but gonna stick with the first one “fall into the shot” for now. A great feeling. Thx again 👍
Just tried it in my living room and finally I think i have understood HOW you start the down swing with the hips. Now it's time for practice, practice.... and practice.
Great video Alex! 👊
Wonderful to hear that. Keep me posted!
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf been practicing this for two weeks now and this is a real game changer for me! The biggest problem now is to take it out on the course, in other words, not forget it while playing! The keyword is patience, i suppose
Your approach to this made such sense. the "falling forward" sounded a little bit off at first however the more you explained it the more it made sense.
Glad it made sense in the end:) 👍💪⛳️🏌️♂️
Hello my golfing friends!🏌️♂️I would love for you to try this right now as drill even without hitting balls and tell me if it gives an “ a’ha” 🏆👍😄 let me know below 👇 if this all makes sense to add the Flow and simplicity you need
This technique actually works. I’ve been struggling with the transition from the top since I started playing golf and I’ve tried every weight/pressure transfer tip on RUclips with no success. I watched this video last night and then practiced this morning and I was crushing the ball making the perfect contact every shot. Just be sure to make a full hip turn and then just gently sit into the left side (if you’re a righty). Thanks Alex.
Crushing it sounds marvelous to me. Well done and keep at it. Good observations about what feel you need
This is by far the best instruction on you tube.. starting to get a lot more consistent ball strike more balance, and the most important more confident
Why thank you kindly and very glad to hear it!
This is the first proper insight for the golf swing, which has improved my ball strike great and simple information
Wonderful to hear that! Keep at it
Excellent lesson....this could be the number one thing that so many beginners just don't get at first. That "falling back" feeling is what I've also heard people describe as "when you get to the top of your back swing, try to put your back knee where your front knee is". It's a great swing trigger thought.
I like that!
I am really glad I came across your channel. I am getting a lot out of your method of explanation and instruction. So much so that I have deleted the other three golf instruction channels and now go to you exclusively. I was on info overload for sure. You keep things simple and I am getting results from your training methods. Thank you Alex!
Perfect! It’s the goal and to nudge you in the right direction. Glad you’re with us
You make things so easy to understand. Thanks for this.
Thank you and glad to hear as it’s the goal!
Love your videos because they’re geared more towards natural feels versus static positioning. My best golf happens when I feel the swing and just let it happen. Then…I’ll find a way to mess it up by trying to get into a certain position to correct something that cost me a shot or two during the round, instead of sticking with the feel that was working, accepting the mistake and moving on. The baseball throw eventually becomes natural if you play the game. You don’t go and change your throwing “motion” because of a bad throw, you move on. It only becomes an issue if you can’t move on and dwell on it, then change what was once natural. I’ve been working on my rhythm as of late, but will be placing more emphasis on motion to enhance the feel of naturally swinging the club with consistent results, and not abandoning my swing if/when something goes awry…cause it will. Take Care 🤙🏾
Absolutely! Thanks for being with us and keep at it 💪🏌️♂️
I found this method on my own 20 years ago and went from a 10 handicap to a 2 handicap.I also embraced the power fade with this swing !
Ah excellent! Thanks for sharing and keep at it! 🏌️♂️🏆
This video finally put everything into perspective for me with my transition. Went out and hit the best balls I’ve ever hit today
Marvelous and thanks for sharing!
This one move with the hips changed everything for me. Wish I knew this years ago!
Sorry. Better late than never 🤷🏻♂️🏌️🏆
Excellent video Alex! I have gone to a light grip on the handle which relaxes the wrists and arms. Now, I am able to feel the club head a lot better as it is dropping into its impact position. Your videos have helped me tremendously in tailoring my swing! Thank You!!
Delighted to hear that. Well done for finding what feels are going to give best results for you and glad to have aided in that!
I won't go into the specifics of your teaching talent because everything you impart is exceptionally superlative. In my oppinion, you are the very best out there on You Tube. You are a generous teacher who shares important distinctions in the golf swing in a way that other teachers maybe just don't have the talent, expertise or inclination to provide. You are making a big difference in my understanding and progress. Thank you very much.
When viewing this video, I felt you were talking directly to me. I will certainly try to implement your advice. I liked it a lot!
That makes me happy. The goal is to help as much as possible and i'm delighted it resonated with you. Let me know how it goes
I have just recently discovered this move and you just made it much clearer. I will play with it today for the first time. I’ll let you know how I do and I will subscribe. Thank you!
Well how did it go?
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf Great ! I’m 73 years old and still playing from the mens tees. Shot 79 Saturday and dbl’d 18 for 81 on Sunday. Thx again for your video👍
The golf swing is so hard to repeat because of all the "essential" things to learn....this "subtle" movement is gold. I really like it!
Perfect!
Brilliant! And simple. My tendency has been my hands out racing my core. But the “feel of falling” has slowed everything down and my shots are now much tighter. I also noticed that where previously my strikes were slightly off center, towards the toe, now the strikes are more aligned to the sweet spot. Thanks!
Precisely the goal! It does help simplify the sync as is were:)
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. Clear out the left side for easier follow-through
Yes indeed
Thanks youAlex this is a brilliant description of what and how to go about the transition.
Good to hear.
Thank you very much for your advice, I'm a follower of your instructional videos, I'm 62 years old and I just cheered up for golf, I'm in love with this sport, it's never too late to learn. Writing errors are my translator's fault, my language is Spanish and I am from Panama' 🇵🇦
Your English is much better than my Spanish :)
Thank you and keep enjoying the game of golf!
I've watched this 5 times and I'll keep watching and practicing until it's seared into my muscle memory. I think if I can master your instruction, everything else will just be fine tuning a super solid golf swing. Thanks so much!
Please keep at it and just watch your head does not shift too far forward.
Keep us posted 👍🏌️♂️
Brilliant! I practiced at home, went to the course today; it worked perfectly. Thanks!
Excellent!! Keep at it
Gain more distance after changing swing? Just curiosity
@@lesterlolester Yes, I did gain some distance. I had to go down a club for my irons. Doing that early "fall" or drift (at the top of the backswing / beginning of the downswing) stopped me from pulling or yanking the club down from the top. The "fall" started the club down passively and on the right plane. It stopped me from going over the top, which happened when I pulled the club down.
My swing felt more fluid. And although the swing speed seemed slower, the ball went clearly farther. (I think the speed through impact may have been higher, even though the swing felt slower.) And the ball direction was more consistent. I was pretty happy.
I had tried perviously to do this kind of move at the top of the backswing, knew I should be doing it, but I couldn't find a way that felt comfortable or seemed natural. For some reason, the way he explained it in the video worked for me.
@@alnickerson2525 Thanks for your sharing. You are genius to get the effortlessness swing from video clip in short period of time. I only hit a few shots as you mentioned in 60 balls but it is amazing.. I can feel what your happiness from.
Let's keep it up and hit more consistent shots in golf course.. CHEERS
@@lesterlolester I had to practice the move many times, very slowly, inside our apartment, before I could incorporate it into my swing out at the range or on the course. I had difficulty incorporating the move into my left hip / pelvis turn. So I didn't just go out and do it. I wish it were that easy.
Good luck!
I think this is the best video I have seen about weight shift and starting the “downswing” that I’ve seen. Been practicing in the mirror and think I’m doing it properly, can’t wait to put it to the test on the range. Great video keep it up!
That’s marvelous and please let us know how it goes.
This was great. Makes total sense. Will give it a go next practice.
💪🏌️♂️
Brilliant as always, 'feeling' my hips start the downswing, has really made my path so much more consistent and 100% added more effortless yards. Would definitely recommend at least trying this for ANYONE that has strong over the top tendencies, this is a life saver.. thank you as always!
Marvelous and happy to hear it’s resonated and clicked! Thanks for sharing!
Great tip as always Alex!
Love the subtle approach and it’s something you can practice at home.
This is Not A Tip ! This “IS” the golf swing ! If you want to play golf at all !! You will pay Real Careful Attention to this Video !!!!
He has given you the chance to actually learn the secret to the golf swing. Let’s see how many of you Realize this ? Or glaze over thinking it’s “just a tip” or “ opinion” lol. It’s the whole ball of wax people !!! 👍🏻
Thanks for the awesome video.
You are indeed correct. It’s the flow of a swing not minutia of positions. Cheers 🏌️♂️👍
After over 20 years of swinging at the ball, this feeling your talking about happened. It was the start of crisp irons that go long with minimal effort. It’s now a thing where I need to ingrain it’s into every swing. I love the description and drill which will hopefully ingrain it into every swing.
Fantastic and well done for getting there. Glad to have helped affirm
Can't wait to try it...I've been stuck with compartmentalizing my swing, and it has caused me to lose some consistency. Good days and bad days, but want more good lol.
We all do. For sure less positions and more flow will help
Same problem I have. I'm playing this weekend and will try this right away. My legs don't move in my downswing, this should free things up.
OMG It all makes sense now!!!!! and Yes, I will try it ASAP. Thank you!
Super! Let us know how you get on
This one really connected with me - I went right out to try it and so far - that butt move - and the way you explained it with the video from all sides - really makes a difference! Seem to be striping the irons and I lost the sometimes fat shot. Without that sit move - I was coming over the top to not hit fat - but I can feel the shallowing now and the ball flight and contact is much better. Thanks !
Well done and very glad you got up and tried. Delighted to hear it resonated and thanks for sharing! 💪🏌️
Can't get enough. You are the sensation, in all areas.
Well that is kind of you to say and glad the lessons on here resonate!
HOLY FREAKING SMOKES!!!
This swing guild works!!! Plan and simple too. It will better your game the first time you use it as well.
Thank you thank you thank you.
I’ve been dealing with a bad back/ hip issues and haven’t been able to walk around the block for a couple years now. So, no golf ether. I decided to give it a try again, missed it like crazy. Long story short is I watched this video on Saturday and Sunday morning teed up and use this swing and won by 10 stokes !! Couldn’t walk good, but the swing was magic❤️ thanks!!!
Well that’s wonderful! Good to hear and keep on going 🏌️♂️🏆👍
Very good instruction. I was overdoing it to the point that my butt is gliding towards the target...now I know how to correct it and hit the ball with optimum acceleration at the point of impact and follow thru in a balanced state after the swing. Thank you!
That’s sounds great! Well done and keep at at
I love your channel mate...whenever i go to range fresh after watching your vids, i hit the ball well. Thank you
Glad to hear it and thanks for sharing 👍🏌️♂️
Thanks, look forward to practicing these notions. Excellent content, fun to watch!
Thank you and hope it helps!
Yes. I try this with my practice swing. Feels like I'm leaving everything "up there" with shoulders staying pointing right of target a little longer. It really works!
Excellent to hear it!
Great swing and another awesome instruction. Thank you!
Glad you liked it! 🏌️♂️👍
Very well explained and demonstrated….EXCELLENT, Thank-you
More than welcome!
Great video Alex. This seems like just what I need. Will work on it starting tomorrow! Thanks!!!!
Let us know how you get on! 👍🏌️♂️
Tried it out and it got great results. Thanks
👍🏌️♂️
As always from the best instructor on RUclips. One suggestion I might make also is to watch a little of the LPGA. On the PGA the pro’s have a much quicker tempo and you don’t see this movement near as well as you do with most of the women on the LPGA who’s swings for the most part seem slower and more deliberate. I think the one thing that blows people away is how far you hit the ball with what seems like a slower swing. Along with that come much improved accuracy.
Too kind but thank you!
Yes I often tell stubborn guys to watch the ladies swing. So much to learn and apply. Not forcing it, allowing flow and movement with tempo and balance. Helps every golfer. Cheers! 👍🏌️♂️
Excellent analysis and description thanks.
Thank you kindly and glad it resonated :)
For a 15 handicap this so helpful for me. Thanks again.
Good to hear and keep us posted
All over this drill, and looking forward to seeing results. Great positive instruction.
Let us know how it goes
Simple and easy to follow, as always.
Cheers Fred
I’ve been working on this very thing. George Knudson keeping my arms like spaghetti letting the weight of the club being my tempo. When i go bad is when i just let it fall without shifting my weight along with it. people ask me how I hit it so far swinging so easy. You are letting the rhythm be you key not positions . Thanks for reminding me you are now my only channel
Such a great lesson and easy to understand. Good work here.
Glad to hear it!
just found your CH, love how you explain how and why! just subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
I shall be working on this it definitely feels right and gives the swing more tempo and whip through the contact point
That’s exactly the goal! 👍🏌️♂️
Great Video !! Thank you so much.This a game changer me and golf game.
Wonderful to hear that!
just love this move and it makes so much sense.
Good to hear !
Hi Alex... My transition has always been inconsistent, so after watching this video last night, I tried it out tonight on the range after work.
All I can say is.... Oh. My. God.
After a few dry practice swings to get a feel for it, I grabbed my 52 (which I hit 100-ish). Consistently went 120-ish, high and straight. 7 iron average 150, went 170, high and straight. Driver average 220-230, went 250-260, high and straight. I have never in my life hit driver like that. Ever.
And all of this was done tonight hitting *into a consistent 20-30 MPH wind!*
Didn't take me long to figure out the turn in the takeaway is critical -- bad turn, you''re screwed. The slingshot/catapult analogy is spot on, that's exactly how I felt. I can't wait to go smash more bombs tomorrow. Thank you for the tip!
Bloody marvelous well done!! Keep at it!
Excellent video. I was a little off today with my swing and i practiced this move afterward which helped a lot. Actually before seeing this. I have saved this video to remind myself. I knew it felt right but couldn’t put it into words as you have. Ha
Well done for getting there and glad to have help d to affirm
Clearing the hips in order to finally get more towards the target and have a body swing is the main thing I am working on. Your suggested additional move seems a game changer for me. At least at home ;-). So I will try on the range soon. Hopeful. Thanks!
Cheers and at home is a good start! Let us know how it goes
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf I did see some progress today on the DR but not quite there yet. Will need some more practice. But still think this will help me. Thanks!
Tried this on the range today and then played a few holes. Totally effortless power! Didn’t even think about hitting with my arms and honestly have no idea how the club head found the ball but it did! Every time. I even completely smoked my 5 wood straight through a dogleg that normally I’d hit a 3 wood. Unbelievable tip!!
Well done! Exactly what I tried to explain and delighted it resonated with you. Thank you for coming back to share! 🏌️♂️👍🏆
It’s like my body starts to feel that hip “fall” and naturally responds by planting the left foot to stop the fall. As a result, the arms and club swing through to balance out the fall/leg plant.
Absolutely Perfect….the Beauty of this action is it gets u to the left side so as to enable u to extend (upwards) and turn the bent left knee up in conjunction with the turning of the left hip a key to distance using ground force ……a feeling most never experience ……providing of course u have turned ur knees properly in the backswing….a video on this extremely important element would be awesome(presuming u have not done this already ….and apologies if u have)
Thanks! Not sure exactly what you mean re the knees in backswing though
Left knee bend extends on backswing
Sweet and easy 👌
Cheers and enjoy putting into play
This is an excellent video! Only took me a few minutes to get it. Hitting half flight practice balls in my back yard. Every one a solid hit and at least 10-15 yards longer than before. I would suggest, however, to make a big point of telling viewers not to sway. That was my problem for many years. Got me into a lot of trouble. I would emphasize a stable base. Anyway, thanks so much! Can't wait to get out on the course.
Cheers for that and yes, not swaying is key and why I talk frequently about centered swing feels etc. keep at it!
Great explanation and guidance - thanks
More than welcome and hope it helps you
Tried this at the driving range today. Still booted a couple of shots but by and large I was able to hit the ball more consistently both on drives and shorter distance shots. Thank you!
Bad shots will happen no matter who or when lol. Keep at it!
Excellent video again will defo be practicing that move 👍 keep up the good work
Good to know and certainly will do!
Yes I’m going to try. I have only recently discovered how to get some lag in my swing. This looks like it will help me gain som distance as well.
Excellent! Glad it resonated and let us know how you get on. Remember you don’t get lag my forcing the angle.. transition in flow is the key.
Yes, this is missing from my swing, I will practice this! Thanks!
Let us know how you get on
Love this vid. Makes total sense 👍 will practice this tomorrow
Let us know how it goes
Love it! Thanks so much. 🙏🏽
You are so welcome!
Hi Alex thank you for a great video. I am an anxious person from the top and hit at the ball and therefore come over the top. I will definitely try the method you have suggested. thank you
Cheers! The other video recently will help that too.
Right Pocket Back! Love your content, Alex!
Good way to think of it! Cheers
This is the video for me thanks Alex great content - am headed to the range
Great and let me know how it goes!
Nice job. Also, love the Apex irons. I hope to get back to them as my game improves.
They are sweet
Awesome video ! U really simplify that key move !
Cheers!!
I can confirm. It’s all in the hips 😂 👏🏻
But in all seriousness I think I understanding what you’re talking about. I unwind my hips so early and let my arms keep going. This might of just helped me out a lot. Chubbs thanks you!
Chubbs!!!! Thank you for affirming to everyone just how important and yet easy it can be. !
Can’t wait to try this on the range
This is soooo good. Thanks!!
Glad to hear it:)
Coincidentally I was practicing this same feel and man the solidness of contact was so much better! Surf 🏄🏽♂️ move!
That’s marvelous! Good that you got there and thanks for sharing!
Truly great coaching keep it up 👍👌
Thank you kindly
Excellent swing thought ….great vid!
Thanks and glad it resonated
Learned a new golf term from this vid…..”don’t Get Cheeky”!!!!!! Love it and this lesson.
🤦🏻♂️🤣 best part is it works 🏌️♂️👍
The guys from Gravity Golf also describe this counter-fall movement. It's not only an imperative move to stay on plane but it also gives you more space and time in which to execute the swing.
Will have to take a look :)
Great Video Alex - Free Flow - Opposing Forces - John Toledo Ohio
Hi Alex what you are saying is 100 percent true for those who wish to become a lower body dominant golfer. But at 75 I simply can not get my brain to do the fall back as I am reaching the top of my backswing. The timing and tempo would take me years to practice this at at my stage of my life i just don’t have the time
So I said forget about this to myself. I am going to teach myself how to become a successful full upper body dominant golfer. And so I have and turned my golf swing into a simple and deliberate two part move that every one can do. I call it my 1&1/2 second golf drill for a lifetime of better golf that is the golf swing itself. Or more simply put The Two Part Diagonal Swing
I know this may be grandiose of me; but I truly believe I am the first in the world to this teach the easiest and most effective golf swing ever. It works for a number of reasons that the golfer need not think about
And so after much exploring on my part I now feel like I am an elite upper body dominant golfer
How did I do it?
It is not so much i control my my hands; wrists; or arms as i swing my club. I simply use the limited 20 degree range of motion of specifically my trail shoulder joint that every human body possesses; to guide my swing as my body is slanted behind my golf ball
And so once in my golf posture and my aim is true I simply pull the club back with my trail shoulder and then push my club forward with my trail shoulder. That’s it! Done This is all I consciously can do as I permit my upper body « action »; my lower body « reaction « automatically takes place. It is that simple
Golfers should know that for every action of a pull there is an equally opposite reaction of a push; and for every action of push their is an equal and opposite reaction of a pull. And the science fact is because we are all human being; our brain can only control either a push or a pull; but should never ever try to control or feel the opposite. Cheers ❤️👍😃⛳️🥂
Certainly sounds like you have found the feels and structure that works for you right now. Allowing the flow like this can help. We have several other lessons that assist and less dynamic move but still great results!
This advice is excellent thank you!!!
More than welcome
This is a great video Alex, my problem is that I can do perfect practice swings just brushing the grass or a rubber tee, but as soon as there is a ball in front of me, I try to attack it like a neanderthal. I think that's my ego, I'm going to concentrate on your great tips, much appreciated.
Ah look out for a lesson coming soon on taking it to the course!
Yeah. About a year ago I played a competitive round and told the guys, 'this is going to be ugly today guys'. I just committed to freely whipping through the ball without trying to control the clubhead, and 'take over' etc... I had an ok round, but more importantly, I hit some really nice shots. Many shots did not go where I was aiming. Since then, I just work much more on my aim. Alex has helped my swing more than any other youtuber. His hands 'low' was an eye opener for me. I recommend that one too. Best wishes.
I discovered this 3 years ago and my golf game has moved to a new level. Too bad it took instructors years to teach this. Percy boomer from the 20s has been teaching this! Good video.
Well that’s so awesome to hear! And I will search Percy out! 👍🏌️♂️
this is a key move that ive read about time and time again. I could never get it down it seem just to hard so I gave up and reverted back to a poor swing .I tried it in the back yard with some wiffle balls and something it actually clicked ...felt very odd at first but I was hitting very clean and crisp,.The feeling i got was i was stretching my left arm cross my chest then releasing ...I kept practicing to be aware of that feel you described as a sling shot pulling the band back .then letting go .Now I need to take to the DR then play.
This sounds good to me! You test, you feel, you check the structure. repeat. keep at it!
Love it. For me, it feels very much like I swing from the hips. When I stopped trying to swing with my hands and arms, I started hitting good shots.
That’s the feel!
This advice agrees with my determination that all power in sports is generated with the lower body. A key is to focus on how I balance my weight just a little ahead of the ball.
Yes that can work. But you need momentum too
All I can say is wow! This is an amazing tip.
All I can say is thanks and hope it helps you specifically!
