    ABOUT DANNY
    -----------------------
    Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
    I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
    On CZcams and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
    Be prepared though. If it's a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
    I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

    Another brilliant video Danny. I’m sure that I’m not alone when I say that I used to watch a range of different coaches. I only watch one now. As an ex headteacher I had the privilege of observing lots of really talented teachers. I therefore feel qualified to state that your ability to explain and demonstrate the key point in your lesson is exceptional. In such a short space of time, there’s no place in the golf swing for too many thoughts. Knowing where and when to strike the ball, together with the direction of the club face is everything. This video, in conjunction with the one that you posted last week make it so clear. I’ll be making these the focus of my time on the range and on the course. Thanks Danny.

    Once again Danny you articulate the body mechanics and what goes on in the mind. You described me exactly and in your exaggerated practice shot with early cast and weight on back heel are my biggest problems. The results are exactly what you described, thin, very fat, a bullet straight left or the boomer slice. Brilliant coaching Danny

    Excellent job Danny in describing how an "inverted circle" path and ball position determines ball flight! My swing is on an in to out path and as such I position my ball as you describe in this video. I also strive for a forearm rotation just prior to impact which usually gives me the draw that you refer to in this video! Well Done Danny!

    Hi Danny. Great video, this has helped my game no end. I tried putting a coin 2 inches in front of the ball and tried to launch it after hitting the ball. This made me focus on the point of contact on the ground. Excellent videos I have followed you for about 3 years, very professional. Thanks very much

  • @z-man2343
    @z-man2343 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Many thanks for the great tips in this video. I'm a longtime golfer, finally back down to a
    10 hcp after a long layoff, but have been struggling with finding a consistent low point. Did just what you advised: moved the ball back an inch or so, closed the club face slightly, and presto, instant improvement in ball contact/compression and trajectory along with a nice baby draw. You're the best Danny Boy!

  • @peterjackson5809
    @peterjackson5809 Před 9 měsíci +4

    Excellent explanation Danny. A similar tip I use is the feeling of hitting the ball towards 1 o’clock.

  • @breakthrough8628
    @breakthrough8628 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Dear danny, your summary is something i worked on for a few weeks to figure out. Excellent information. Thanks! One piece that i thinknis important to mention is ball is closer to body in stance as ball is moved toward right foot. A good check for this for irons is to grip then right elbow at watch pocket for distance from ball.

  • @devonshire56
    @devonshire56 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Been hitting golf balls my whole adult life and never gave this concept much thought. It needs to be a teaching point for anyone trying to explain the need to strike the ball first and then bottom out the head of the club and where the shaft should be in relation. Knowing this should be a fundamental element of the swing and then it needs a good instructor to show this concept in action.
    Nice work Danny explaining a tough concept in the exact way it should be taught.

  • @dansollenberger2148

  • @curtsmith7717
    @curtsmith7717 Před 8 měsíci

    your visualization of the swing real clarified a lot. I was doing all the mistakes you mentioned. To sum it up I was adjusting my swing to the ball position instead of keeping my swing then adjusting the ball position. Makes perfect sense now. Thank you so much. Brilliant!!! I believe you are the best at illustration that I can understand.

  • @johndutton4005
    @johndutton4005 Před 8 měsíci

    Great video this week Daniel. The way you explain the correct swing motion from first principles and the ensuing ball trajectory are very comprehensive, i.e., simple yet captures only the important parts of the swing theory. Other online instructors tell this same story in different ways but not as comprehensively as you. Probably because you still teach students and are better aware of the pitfalls they may fall into when trying to incorporate your swing suggestions. It must be a challenge with the growing demands of online instruction business, continuing with instructing students in person but suggest you don't stop. Well done.

  • @chrishartney
    @chrishartney Před 8 měsíci +1

    A very interesting video. Your advice on ball position at address contadicts the advice that all golf pros, including yourself, have previously given.

    • @DanielMaude
      @DanielMaude  Před 8 měsíci +1

      In what way Chris? My perspective of ball position has remained the same since I’ve been an amateur. Anything behind the lead heel is where you position an iron as it’s before the low point. How much depends on club and how low you want the ball to go

  • @kaina732
    @kaina732 Před 5 měsíci

    Great visuals! I have not been playing and I starting to get back into it. The bag drill makes a lot of sense to me.

  • @beimsteiner
    @beimsteiner Před 8 měsíci +1

    I've been fighting hitting left hooks and now I see clearly my ball position relative to my swing arc has been off by almost two inches. This had me hitting the ground early and pulling shots.
    Now setting up with low point target side of the ball and I'm hoping I can get some good consistency for a change. 🙏

  • @ScrivyRL
    @ScrivyRL Před 5 měsíci

    This is brilliant as some have said. Keep the arch (geometry as you said) thought in the mind throughout the setup. This is going to help greatly in setting up for fades and draws as well as straight shots. I have been noticing lately that I have had to open my clubface more at setup to get the shot straighter. Obviously after this video I had the ball too far forward in the stance with a closed clubface. Thanks Danny. Definitely my favorite Coach...

  • @cocobanxmaslivecouk
    @cocobanxmaslivecouk Před 5 měsíci +1

    Danny,you have explained the demons I have had for 40 years brilliantly,I could never get an explanation to the arc and ended up like most people trying to hit it straight resulting in my handicap going from 4 to 15.
    Shots ended up going to the left and eventually scared of hook creeping in
    Straight to the practice range with the thought of putting the shaft on the bag

  • @gelonious1
    @gelonious1 Před 6 měsíci

    Excellent explanation and I'm this will really help me lock in the final touches with my irons and woods. Just one thing I wish was included is a center line in the stance and showing the ball position from that line. But it totally makes now!

  • @dean3434
    @dean3434 Před 9 měsíci +7

    I have always thought about this natural arc in the swing and I will admit I also often thought I should start my swing going in a straighter backswing because of the problems I've always had such as the problems you mentioned. Honestly, no one ever talks about this natural arc of the golf swing.
    Thanks Danny for speaking to this natural part of the golf swing that no one talks about.

  • @austino65
    @austino65 Před 8 měsíci

    Your previous video about visualizing hammering a nail worked wonders for contact. Except for the times I fatted it. I think this video helps explain why - I'm trying to get the club face going straight at the target at impact, not swinging to the right. I'm going to try that next but I anticipate having to overcome some mental resistance. Keep the tips coming - they're really helping!

  • @joeb7508
    @joeb7508 Před 8 měsíci

    Really great Danny. I’ve understood the club path bit for a while. But your imagery of the shaft contacting the bag has made a huge difference in the quality of the strike! A bit more prone to pulls/pull hooks. Perhaps a club face adjustment at setup? Thanks for all the help.

    Great lesson Danny, lots to take in here. Struggling lately with extremely steep divots. Would love to see a lesson on that sometime in the future. I can’t tell if I’m hitting down too much, or getting way too ahead or just not releasing the club early enough. It’s even worse now on this really soggy ground 😂😂

    When I used to watch golf on TV I always thought the ball looked like it started off to the right. I thought that was just the camera angle or something with the TV screen. This makes so much sense now. It actually was starting right and coming back to the left.

Will this also help/improve contact with the ball, as my biggest problem right now. Is being able to hit the sweet spot, centering the ball on the club face

    I am 82 years old and have been watching your lessons, in particular for older people, but have learnt so much from you with all the videos I have seen!
    One question I have is, 'when setting up to hit the ball where are your eyes focusing? are they at the back of the ball or the front?'
    I ask this as I have had conflicting answers to this question over the years!!! Gerald

  • @MarkG_603
    @MarkG_603 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Danny, Great video! As a mechanical engineer I understood everything you described, perfectly. However, you were brief in describing closing the club face slightly to counter balance hitting out to the right too much (or, out to the left for a lefty). A little more attention to that detail, for clarity, may have been ideal. Thank you again!

    Not going to read all the comment to see if anyone else mentions this, but I've been taught to keep the ball placement slightly forward of middle stance for iron except wedges for most full stock swings, especially fairway woods. Before I took lesson I was putting the ball either in the middle for most irons except 3 or 4 irons, and just before for shorter iron and in middle for fairway woods. Coaches told me wrong. I should move the ball forward and my low point of my swing arc should be just in front of the ball even with the ball slightly forward. I've heard some say it wasn't as important where the ball was as long as it was close to center and you hit ball 1st then divot, except driver, obviously, to hit up on a teed up ball. So many different teachings confuse the amateurs.
    I have been placing the ball for 8 iron and longer slightly forward nowadays and either middle or slightly back for 9 and wedges because of lessons taught. But I find myself pulling and hooks. Hands/shaft forward is easier with ball centered or behind to me, but I keep listening to coaches from the past. Ready to abandon that idea and go back to ball mostly in center again except for driver and long irons if I use a tee for the 3, or 4 on par 3's. I'm older now, but I was doing just fine killing my 9 iron 150 with ball in back slight playing a high draw., not a stinger type low draw shot. May not have been the right way like a pro would, but it worked and that was back in early 90's before all these improved clubs came out.
    Any thoughts??

      I think that sounds perfect, as long as your ball is behind your low point you increase your chances of striking it properly

    Danny, thanks again for this much valuable content! Now that I have put up my own golfsim in my garage, I will be able to work on those things. I usually hit very well my irons, but my woods are trivial.
    One suggestion for a next video; Can you elaborate on some of the metrics an entry level (Garmin R10 or MEVO+) golf simulator can provide? I'm still trying to understand all the different metrics and being a Lefty is a struggle when the vast majority of golfers are Righthanded :) Thanks!

    Aaahhh! That's why I hit left...and I hit with a closed face...so it's a straight far left! Thank you DM!
    Might start to get the love back for the game knowing that. Think I'm definitely gonna get lessons over the Winter

    I watch a fair bit of golf on TV. I've wondered why the ball always looks like it's going way right when the camera is behind the players. I assumed it' was an optical illusion resulting from 2D view of a 3D event!! Thanks to you, I now know they ARE hitting it to the right. This will definitely help my own game. Thanks Danny from Vancouver Island in Canada
