- In this lesson, I discuss driving distance, power and everything I know about speed. If you want to hit it further, you have to hit it harder and to do that you have to break a lot of inhibitions.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge Paddy. 👌🏻
Hope you boys take note...so what are your handicaps????
Thanks so much if you could do a whole video on what you mean by stopping your hands and letting the club go - that’s something I’ve never heard ! Thanks again 👍
@DonkeyKongBMAC I think it like snapping a towel. You quick stop your hands to get the best snap. Wish I knew more as well!
@@jmack619 Thanks jmack - he's talking about stopping to let the club go somehow and i like it but i still dont get it :) most instructors keep talking about a straight line from you arm through the club after impact so im all confused. But they haven't won 3 majors
You played well this week Paddy. Well done
❤
Total legend we are blessed to have someone like Padraig giving us these gems 👏 I can see another major coming at the open
Inbetween rounds at the US Open. Uploading content for us hacks. Legend.
I love listening to Paddy teach. He’s done so much analyzing and figuring on the swing. And he talks in relatable terms.
Huge knowledge of the golf swing. In the best and simplest way possible. His Irish humor keeps the viewer engaged as well. He's even moving on the Potty!! Classic stuff. By telling his viewers the most important factors in order, they know what to concentrate on the most. Paddy is a wonderful athlete as it pertains to golf. There are few players in the game that play "More Freed Up" than Padraig Harrington. To use an old cliche, "He gets out of his own Way." Paddy shows you how to open your body. More importantly he helps you free your mind

Open your body and free your mind! I KINDA like it!
@@jmack619 lol
Brilliant. Padraig gives his all, for the benefit of all golfers. Truly appreciated.
Paddy is now the most interesting man in golf.
I don't care what he's talking about I could keep listening to him all day long. Best personality in golf. Man of the people. Legend.
How can anybody not love, Padraig!
72 and have loved watching and listening to Padraig Harrington for many many years...great guy and ambassador for the sport ....
Thanks Paddy. Going great in the US open. Well done 👏
I watched your flight on 3rd round. And you just played how you teach in your videos. That is why I absolutely find your golf tips the most realistic and not just en vogue gibberish like from other lots of other channels. Great respect for that.
Incredible! Watched them all from Tip #1 up. Such passion for the game. And so willing to share.
Your enthusiasm and love for the game is unmatched.
Never boring on this channel 😂👍
My favorite player for what you have done for my game. You are a talented teacher as well.
Harrington’s insights are all gold. But this is platinum.
BEST vid I've seen of the last THOUSAND I've watched! Great stuff 👍
Brilliantly entertaining on and off the course - absolute legend!
Your hole out from the bunker was beautiful, Paddy, because, while the ball was rolling towards the flag, one could even imagine the thoughts that went into making that shot. Beside the feeling and technique to do it, of course.
This might be the most efficient lesson on how to bomb a drive I've ever seen.
Again man. Don’t change a thing about your channel. Love what you contribute to your followers.
Before I watched this video I was only driving the ball 180 yards, but after watching it I am now driving the ball 275 yards like a boss and my local driving range banned me because I hit all of their balls out of the range. Thank you Mr Harrington! 🏌️♂️
Paddy, you are absolutely the best. My favorite golfer and I love how you tinker with the swing..from one double overlap to another.. Thanks for your swing wisdom.
Great tips again Padraig, thank you.
I would be very interested in how you manage to control the height in your Drives.
Play well today!!💪
I really enjoy listening too P H. He brings a unique view to golf swing theory - discarding lots of inaccurate old "truths" and replacing them with stuff that works
Maybe the best instructional video I have ever watched. Paddy is a legend!!!
Best teacher!
At the risk of stating the obvious, there is nothing better on CZcams than learning from Padraig Harrington.
He is one of my favorite …..
a real guy ..
Thanks, Paddy. Congrats on your good play at the US Open!!!
Best golf content on CZcams! Great job at the US OPEN!
I love Padraig’s no nonsense speech, we all have similar parts (well two styles but) fundamentally (see what I did there) you need to get your butt into the game! Squeeze those glutes for impact!
Incidentally, not trying to be a diva here but you pronounce Padraig as Porrig!
Just love seeing Paddy’s tips
He is just awesome
Move your feet
Hold your finish
Pure gold
Paddy’s golf tips #8
That was awesome to watch and actually listen to one of the great players about what not to do in your swing.
Nice bunker shot!!
Padraig thank you so much for your videos! You love this sport so much and the people who play this
I could listen to him all day and what great insight into his thoughts on how to Smash the ball. Excellent 👍👍
PH is the most passionate player who still loves the game. That's why we love u. Thank you!!!
No need to look elsewhere for advice, Paddy is Gold!
Great play at the Open! Thank you so much for taking the time and doing these videos for us hopeless lots!
Absolutely love paddy's enthusiasm for the game and for passing on his knowledge
this is pure gold!
Double overlap! Genius!
Paddy is legend
Love this guy!
Dear mr Harrington. You rock. That is all.
Absolute best. No inhibitions. Great stuff Paddy! BTW, nice play at the U.S. Open this year.
Wow, the information dump Padraig just gave us all is amazing! Thanks, Paddy! Great video guys!! ⛳
Great teacher so enthusiastic will probably have career in coaching later in life and the queue will be a long for his services
Good for golf, good for Ireland and good for Paddy. A true Ambassador of the game and would love to see him get another crack at the captaincy for the Ryder Cup.
Padraig is a top bloke.
Padraig understands the golf swing ! Great video.. tks
Padraig you star. You don't have to help us here but it is awesome that you do and much appreciated, thank you
Thanks for the honesty Padraig!
❤
Love the experienced players imparting knowledge. 👍
Paddy = legend
I've been watching a ton of golf videos on CZcams . . . Watched this a couple times and practiced it for a few minutes. Hit the ball harder today than I have and by a lot! Best explanation of the golf swing I have seen so far. THANK YOU!
Does it feel much different? I'm a slicer and long hitter. Seems this move is a big uppercut feeling? When I do the uppercut and it feels like im really hitting up on the ball it goes long and straight. It's not easy though....
@Gunga Galunga feels a lot different . . Still fighting natural tendency to move right hip outwards . . It's actually easier on my back to swing correctly compared to my old swing.
@@adamstalilonis8787 cool thanks
I'm going to spend time on thr range and even replay the video while I'm there if i have to
Man is a legend
Love Paddy he is just soooo passionate
Legend. I enjoy your tip videos such much Paddy and take so much from them too. Congrats on a good week at the US Open too. Some great shots therein and excitement. Good luck in Stevens Point.
You're such an inspiration "kiddo" .... simply loved watching you golf past "centuries" .... hahaha .... love ya ... keep it up ... stay bright... ;) ;) ALL THE BEST FROM ICELAND....
Thanks for sharing!
Gratz on making the weekend in LA Paddy. That course was really tough.
Dispelling so many modern instructions myths ❤
Your reminder that you have to stop your hands to let the club catch up was a lightbulb 💡 moment for me and I used it on the course to immediately stop my bad miss left due to me unintentionally flicking my hands to catch the club. Thank you, enjoyed my round for the first time in a long time, hitting it low left is no fun!
Love Paddy Harrington...
That was amazing.
Taking me back to 1993!
That's great stuff!
Watched you play, brilliant, such a tough course , great golf Sir, best regards from Salisbury (Fraser)
Wow the speed !
Awesome 👍
Interesting to see a great golfer hit so well...to the point going off balance in the follow through...and it's all good. The rules are made to be broken....but only for good reason, of course. Many great tidbits of advice here.
I'm a member at atherstone GC. 18 hcp, your content is golden. Watch this space "this time next year, I'll be single figures.
The best.
Thanks for the new video...
You are the best!!!
bravo.
Well played this week Padraig
Great info as usual
A lot very good information to parse in this video but the key to the underlying physics is the idea of swinging into resistance in the downswing with the body and hands to trigger the acceleration of the club head around the hands like the action of cracking a whip-speeding up the hands and grip end of the club in the downswing then abruptly slowing it to trigger the whipping of club head around hands, where most of the club head acceleration before impact occurs.
The idea of swinging into resistance with the body to generate club head speed with the hands was mentioned in a 1930s book called “Down To Scratch” by Abe Mitchell. It was the concept trick shot artist Harry Frankenberg (aka Count Yogi) built his unorthodox swing style around and something both Hogan - with his waggle action - and Moe Norman - with his unorthodox grip - also understood intuitively and incorporated into their swings to accelerate their club heads.
I started experimenting with the concept about 15 years ago in my mid-50s after retiring, going to work at a course as a starter and being able to practice and play nearly every day. For the previous 20 some years I’d tried to model my swing on Nicklaus but I restarted from scratch by using Hogan’s Five Lessons. It was the combination of Hogan’s precise placement of the feet and his waggle wrist action which made me first experience the feeling of hip turn meeting resistance triggering the release of the club head around the hands. The pros where I worked taught the Moe Norman single plane swing as part of the Todd Graves franchise so I tried it and discovered the way Moe gripped and swung starting with the hands down in ulnar deviation when lining up and returning there at impact created the same release of the club head around the hands and predictable control of the club face through impact. I learned about Frankenberg and Abe Mitchell later but recognized the same cause and effect of physics in their swings.
Something Padraig didn’t touch on regarding why tour pros have “rediscovered” that cause and effect and are using it so effectively to bomb their drives and loft their irons and wedges is that the conventional swing wisdom of the 1980s - early 2000s, while effective, were much harder on the body, especially the lower back and legs. Swinging into resistance and letting momentum and gravity accelerate the club head around the hands is much easier on the body, especially older ones. 😂
Great stuff as usual, I have difficulty focusing with the other two trying to chime in. For my money you alone is the best. Respectfully
What an amazing guy. Also a fine player. I think im going to change my vacation this year and go to Ireland.
Paddy is part instructor, part comedian 😂👍
Great stuff.
Awesome video, Paddy
What a legacy you're creating by sharing such knowledge free online, thank you. Question: the hard swings in this video, you knocked it 320+ and straight enough to hit a fairway, but I never see you swing that way in tournaments.. why not if the result is so good?
Brilliant as ever. Only critique is please don’t suggest that the weekend golfer take three practice swings! 😂
Great video
Nice Eagle!! 💪🦅
What a stud
Bien joué!
Paddy,, Gods gift to hackers everywhere,, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
“You squeeze your balls.” Lol. That was great.
Superb effort my friend
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing everything Paddy.
Can you tell us how to get that 1.50 perfect smash factor?
Superb
Absolutely really like paddy's instructions, would rather hear average players instead of amateurs, some of the greatest players in history were amateurs, Bobby jones was certainly the greatest of his time. Watch all things instructional with padraig Harrison he is very good at being an instructor certainly one of the best and he is passionate about golf . Multiple major winner that i think can still get it done on the regular tour.
