- Strike and getting the ball flight under control were the 2 main objectives for Ian. Once the data revealed that he was not using the ground for torque as he could - a few exercises and gait cycle work got us into the space we needed to then use the GRFi board to allow his body to optimise these forces naturally. Thanks for making the trip Ian!

If you can get over to see Marcus you really should, great experience even though it blew my mind initially. The video is a brilliant reference point - can’t stop watching it! And by the way - he’s nowhere near as handsome as me 😄😄
😂😂😂 Nice one bruvva
I wish upon a star, I’ve lived in the States for so long and with covid being a crippler for travel, long distance learning is my only avenue. You are indeed a lucky man only not in looks, 😂
I have watched quite a few different coaches but I must say, you guys are extremely good at what you do! I would absolutely love the opportunity to get a live lesson no doubt! I have learned a lot by your coaching on you tube but there is no telling what you could do for me in person! Keep it up!!!
@@robbiewilliams7078 transformed my approach to the game, clears your thoughts and takes you to a whole different place. I love golf again!
@@X5OWL I am envious of the clients that get to get live lessons for sure! I know that it would be a great investment to make it a trip and get a lesson for sure!
"Intensity of commitment all the way through the swing" Brilliant way to describe a committed swing!
No shoes. What a novel approach from a novel instructor. Thanks once again for the umpteenth time...
Amazing teaching!
Little tad bit of a neurological fun fact: What we perceive as a "reaction" of our body to something is actually the brains "best fit" simulation for the intended result. It's an active process albeit entirely subconcious. Your brain is simulating a multitude of motion patterns from your previous set of experience and is constantly cross checking with your intention! If you lose the intention your brains "best fit" optimization is disrupted and the result is the average joe's attempt of getting all the youtube tips right with their swing. ;)

Thanks and totally agree. You'll hear me say countless times in previous videos on the channel how the body is actually simulating movement and that the golf swing is a simulation from a recognisable movement map that we develop through experiential learning 👍
U R brilliant ! U have opened up my mind to actually thinking about the causes and effects. Thanks
Just a great video of how to do it ~ to maximise potential of hitting a golf ball.
When hit the shot outside and you can see how well he striped it with that great divot that was the wow factor for me.
Keep up the great work Marcus and team!!!
Marcus- My game has improved so much from practicing the movements/thought processes you teach that I feel I owe you for a lesson! Your lessons on the full swing and even chipping have made the game feel more effortless than I could've imagined. I only wish I had found you years ago before I got caught up in all of the technical jargon that most others teach. If you're ever in the States I will certainly make an effort to come see you. Keep up the great work!
I like the " Intent " part. Now when I practice or play, my first thought is what is my intension, instead of being so target oriented, or how far I can hit the ball. This has elevated my striking.
Great stuff - very innovative way of teaching. The results speak for themselves. Converting someone from being admittedly erratic to a consistent draw within an hour or so is a fantastic achievement.
Always the best transformation videos. Everyone just leaves with a completely different swing.
I love watching the golfers gain in confidence during the course of these videos, you can almost see the moments of realisation as the theories "click" into place and you see a sudden sustained improvement. Good stuff Marcus, your enthusiasm and ability to relate to your "students" seems to improve all the time. 👍👍👍
I just talk about Marcus, Zen golf techniques with all my golf buddies, busy sharing all these contents & the channel with my mates. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the knowledge you share.
Would love to see an intense lesson on driver in the future.
The golf sorcerer strikes again. Thanks Marcus
Marcus is the man! Keeps it real! This may be the first video I’ve seen where the sun may actually be shining:-)
Love how free you get the students hitting the ball. No mechanics or set positions just a simple free swing which seems has no effort 👍
Your old swing and thought process is so similar to mine before I had my lesson with Marcus. It's not been an easy transition but there are definite signs of improvement happening. This evening I shot 11 over par whereas 6 weeks ago I was shooting 11 over my handicap!! Thanks Marcus....but still work in progress!
What a great video. Seemed to go into more detail than some others. Can’t wait to come and see you.
Great to see as always.
This guy is a talented player. This was a seriously good video, thank you!
I love Zen golf! It makes more sense then most instructions... cannot begin to tell you how much I’ve improved my feel & enjoyment of the game since I’ve followed your channel.
PS. I’m wondering if you’ve considered “lav” mics for Marcus & student. This would substantially improve video production levels.
Love your work!
most constructive comment, yet. 👍
Its just so refreshing to see coaching that suits the player and isn’t that textbook rubbish.
Awesome as always Marcus thanks again! And thanks so much for censoring the unnecessary/unwanted F-bombs!! I often watch these videos with one of my grandchildren! Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
WOW. I can empathise totally with this person. I’ve slowed my swing and shortened it in an attempt to get more consistency with my irons. The opposite has happened. I’m hitting irons 20 yards shorter and my head is now like a bag of toys. If ever Zen golf comes on “tour” to South Wales I’d be first in the queue for a lesson.
Steve make the effort to go up and see Marcus - it was a long drive(4 hours) for me but worth every moment - you wont regret it
@@crispyduck1706 many thanks for the message. I will look into this. I’m in desperate need of a confidence booster 😀😀
every video i watch i see the progress - what do i get - frustration. Back to the zen board!!
This is so amazing to see. I'm coming to see you on the 21st June with an SOS! I've recently started to shank 85% of irons, worse the shorter the clubs, I'm sure this is a combination of moving weight onto the toes and lacking side bend. The result of it however is to restrict the golf swing as I'm so scared of the result. I need to get confidence back in the shot and become more free.
Would love to see more of the bio-mechanics material...such as the stretches you introduced. Ruptured my plantar fascia years ago and feel my golf swing changed dramatically afterwards.
This is by far my favorite video! Do you sell the link to the instruction and not the hardware?
Awesome 👏🙌🙌🙌
Fantastic instruction as always. Please look into lapel mics whoch would improve the sound quality 500% and improve the quality of instruction. 👍🏻
can you explain the two movements of the feet between the walking motion and the twisting motion and when do you sequence the two. Thanks
G day Marcus I’m an avid Zen golf watcher , but feel I need a one on one lesson !!! Is there any Zen golf instructors in Sydney Australia?
Hi, another very enjoyable lesson . Can I ask about the yellow item which you used on top of Zen Board and it’s purpose ? Thanks Alan
That's was just some foam and a podiatry aid.
It's good to know that even other pros watch your channel, check out Matt Fryer on his new pressure pad system.....keep going strong 🙌
Great vid! Marcus, are your assistants trained in the theory covered here (as it resonates with my swing issues and I see you aren't available currently but they are)? Thanks.
In creating torque thru the feet. Should u feel some twisting and toe grab in back and thru swing!? Great stuff.
Can't get there for lesson but order your training kit. When will I get access to kits training vids? Are they any different from these training videos?
This was extremely relatable. Since I do not live close enough for a live lesson, I'm thinking about ordering your Zen GRF Infinity Training System. Is there a coupon code or deal currently available?
wish i could take a week lessons from Marcus. i am 10,174KM from Doncaster.
Didn’t know Marcus had a twin brother. Nice of him to give him a lesson.
😂😂
Marcusius coachious awesomius
How about an 80 year old man ss of around 80mph could you do do a episode with one? Thanks
hi marcus, i understand the concept of the foot mechanics creating the ground torque and this has helped my swing massively as i was using far too much upper body on the downswing. however on recording my swing the backswing takeaway is ok and the top of the swing looks ok but midway back my club goes quite flat this is my natural swing and i struggle to change it, is this something to be concerned with and should i try to make a more conventional backswing?
great videos thanks for sharing them
regards
dan
Go with what's natural and works 👍
@@GRFGolf hi thanks for the reply.
I've always been told during lessons that I'll never improve whilst my backswing is flat around my body.
I don't understand the mechanics of the swing and have always tried tirelessly to make it look right but always fall back to my natural flat swing.
Does the backswing have any effect on the overall swing as long as the lower body works correctly?
Thanks
Dan
Pity i don’t live near you guys would love a lesson to help me find my low point as i really struggle with strike,am trying everything i can but am just left with all sorts of thoughts from the moment i set up until i complete my strike🤷♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Is April 2022 really the earliest opportunity for a lesson. Wow.
No, I'm booked till November but haven't opened up the winter months yet as I'm awaiting the Covid situation and potential further lockdowns. I'll hopefully be opening them up August time.
@@GRFGolf thank fook for that!! 😂 I was getting depressed looking at that. Book me in please 😁🙏
He looks a lot like Marcus.
Is there a new Zen clothing line now?
:)
I would like more info and leeson
Get in line 😂😂😂
Did he think matching your vest would have magical properties?
Great info. Didn’t know you had a twin?
😂😂
Best golf channel but you really do need to improve your audio. Get a sound technician in.
I recently purchased the GRFI system and am already seeing results in my ball flight. I went from never hitting a draw in my life to it already being the primary shape of ball flight. Hoping for a video with specific drills instead of just trying to emulate what i see in the videos. If these videos exist and i'm just to stupid to know someone please help me, Lol.
You should receive a 2 hr download with all the drills. If you haven't already please email zengrfinfinity@gmail.com 👍
watching this is like a religious experience
wtf did zen golf just coach himself????
😂😂😂
No 'Thumbs Down' yet, I guess Danny Fraude must be busy... :)
There are only two types of people that would Marcus a “Thumbs Down”:
1). Someone who’s deaf and blind
2). Someone who’s extremely envious of his knowledge and ability
😂😂
