Malaska Golf // The L to L and How To Control Trajectory on Your Short Irons

- Controlling trajectory, especially with your short irons, is something we should all work on to improve our touch around the greens.
Using the L to L is going to be the same and the levers in your swing don't change, but your club face position and how your hands work at impact can.

Every time the explanation is so simple and easy to understand, not to mention makes so much sense. Cheers Mike
Working on my L to L is starting to pay off. It isn't easy, and may seem inconsistent at first, but stick with it. This trajectory video has cleared up a lot of my trajectory issues, A simple explanation, that I didn't see on my own. Thanks Mike.
Thank you Mike! Watch all of your vdos daily from Thailand. You’ve helped my golf game a ton after struggling for over 20 years! All your tips changes everything! Especially having degenerative neck from car accident. Your natural swing tips are just awesome. Would be great of you could do long irons vdo too. Thanks again!
Made me sit up and think. This tip is a great one. Much thanks. (He's a great coach.)
Brilliant!!!!! Thanks, Coach.
Dang great tip. Gonna try this tomorrow.
Man pure gold right here folks
So interesting. Most teachers/articles focus on the "bowed" left wrist as the way to achieve lower ball flight. I much prefer Mike's emphasis on the right hand/wrist.
Great tip! I like the right wrist action vs. putting the ball back in my stance, as I tend to come in a little steep with my wedges!
Thanks coach
Hi Mike. Good video. In the past, to hit lower shots - I choked down on a less lofted club. Also, have moved the ball forward and back in my stance. This video provides another option. Any suggestions on which trajectories are optimum for full swing shots?
Nice Mike ,, Mike do suggest supernation of forearm or flex of wrist at impact for getting square??? I guess IAM asking does it give you better contact by doing either one ,, I was a little over the top before I started your program ,, so I used to do it to help with contact squaring of the face ,, but I don't seem like I need it anymore !!!!
Mike, when you change the bend of your trail hand/wrist, it would seem that the arc distance is shorter. How do you handle this without topping the ball ?
It makes sense to me, now if I can get it to make sense to my right wrist.
I’ve found with this drill my right hand was to under the club/grip and I had to change to a 10 finger grip. I started setting up with my right hand/club face square on the grip. Tested by picking up the club with no tension in my right arm and rotating the club face as needed for the club to be square. I do not move my right hand after making the club square and insert my left hand thumb into the crease of my right hand. Hope it helps.
Great Mike, Why can’t we get standardized teaching across the PGA at least on full swing and chipping. It would be good for the industry and the frustration level with instruction would be reduced. Thanks, Steve
If you are keeping your left wrist flexed arent you holding of the release? Wouldnt this sap your distance and also make you have to spped your arms through a little more?
💥
If you need less loft, why not just choose a longer iron (and vice versa)?
I’ve found with the L to L drill, that my right hand was way to under the club.
Big Mike
I don't have any distance when I do this.And when I try to swing faster I pull hook it badly.
That's flip city potential for me.
Sorry, I don't get this at all, surely if you hold you're hand back from the wrist for a lower trajectory in extreme cases your club head would go straight over the ball, what must you do to compensate for to this ?.
Can someone please explain how this isn’t considered “flipping?”
id like to thank you for helping my game i went from a 15 handicap to a scratch player in just a few month's
Using which drills?
15 to a scratch in a few months....WOW...!!!!

The Alaska move is not easy to do! I am trying but it is making my shots very inconsistent.
I practiced the L to L a lot, doing what Mike says about changing the trajectory, granted it takes awhile, but after a few days at the range, I was able to his high, low, and draws. As for hitting fades, I still struggle with that as my shots come up way short of my shots that go straight or draw. I also find that my real high shots do lose a bit of distance compared to a lower shot.
And with all the help from Mike, all of my clubs are much longer than before, so I can live with that. Hang in there, you'll get it.
Maybe cuz you’re doing the Alaska move, not the Malaska move 😂
It is malaska ... not Alaska. And there is no such move. It is just golf. That you are inconsistent, means you are not very good At golf.
@@arjanpetersen go back to your hole, no one was talking to you.
how do you maintain the cocked right wrist while still using your hands and arms to generate speed? I thought the idea was to release the hands and arms in your other video here czcams.com/video/0IDZcMvkAds/video.html
Doesn’t that bring in a timing issue, something you talk about that you used to do when rolling the wrists over. I think I’d rather move the ball and just keep my wrist angles consistent.
L to L takes a considerable amount of timing, its only suitable to a two plane swing, a one plane swing is much better and takes all the timing out of a swing, keep clubface square throughout the swing for consistent results.
