I increased my drives by 453 yards with this drill and developed two disc bulges, chronic bilateral sciatica and radicular pain (just like Freddie). The extra 453 yards helped on some holes and by the time I've watched a dozen more CZcams videos, each promising another 30 yards, I should be driving it almost half a mile. Needless to say my second shot is usually backwards towards the green I flew with my drive. Soon be in a wheelchair too👍
Thanks for posting in the comments area that no one gives a shit about
@@CraigHansonGolf Golf is littered with spinal injuries created especially by those who advised simultaneous spinal bending and torsion. Just a thought .....but you guys don't care a fig as you so "eloquently" stated.
@@CraigHansonGolfSix of us did.
@steveperryman8102 HaHa, Funny, made me laugh.
@CraigHansonGolf I thought you did a good job putting this video together. There was that great montage of Fred Couples swings at the first and great editing throughout the video. Great video and funny tongue in check comment by Steve.
Any particular golf swing is never a "one size fits all". everyone's body and perceptions are different.
@@jeffedmundson3934 Exactly. Freddie has enormously wide shoulders. That big primary lever creates effortless speed. Davis Love had to use a lot of height and fast/loose hand action. My comment was a little tongue in cheek but also a word of caution. I speak from experience. Two blown discs and all of the above. Bad backs can be serious (Google Cauda Equina Syndrome the life changing snowboarders injury). Another long hitter who also uses this sort of internal rotation, Cameron Champ, is young and already suffering back issues. So beware unless you don't play much ...
I'm always amazed by the complete lack of visible effort or tension in Couples' swing. So pleasurable to watch!
isn’t it incredible i’ve never seen a swing like it
Great Video ….. so clear to undrrstand ..Great teaching 🙏
Thanks so very much 👍👍👍👍
My Coach gave me the aim left drill many years ago! He played the Tour for 15 years.
Freddie really releases those hands to the max through impact. And when you add that to how far back he cranks his right shoulder……BOOM BOOM! I know it’s not the modern body release and he does miss both ways because of it but when you have impeccable timing like Fred, it’s a thing of beauty. My favorite swing and who I try to emulate. Nice video!
Thanks .. very much
The FC montage and the epic spiritual music is hilarious and brilliant. Great instruction, keep it up.
Thanks very much … something different 👍
Your videos are excellent!
Outstanding explanation. Fred Couples has always been my swing idol but I didnt quite understand what was happening. The forward, down, and under explanation really made it all click and also gave me an "aha!" moment where I realized why I often top the ball. Great job and thank you
Glad to help!
As usual great video. For me to achieve a lower arc, I have to tuck in the trail elbow (visualize it as a hinge attached to a rotating trail hip) as I pull back the lead scapula (chest to face the sky). The tucking of the trail elbow facilitates the increased trail side bend and dropping of the head behind the ball.
👌👌..
Good video
Very useful.
Thank you
Great explanation. Also the teaching noodle is the best
Thanks very much reaching appreciate
I have been going through many online videos but none are comparable to yours. I have increased my distance from 245meters with a driver to around 270 meters. Phenomenal indeed. Keep up the good work
thanks for sharing appreciate the feedback 👍👍👍👍
No question, the most smooth swing in golf. Stood 8 ft from him at Riviera when he hit a wedge onto the green, you would have thought it would only go halfway there and it landed pin high.
Best swing in golf. Right here CH.
Thanks mate 👍
@PGA tournament, I emulated Freddie swing with my umbrella right behind him while he was doing practice swing to wait for the green. Such smooth tempo, just the gravity guides your swing. BTW, Freddie noticed my practice. So embrassing.
That’s awesome 👍.. that’s cool
That was fantastic! The swing that got me hooked on this game decades ago. Was so obsessed with Freddie's leisurely looking swing and fading the ball i completely copied it. And I treasure the elegant swing more than ever now the game has become so muscular and unattractive. The current generation makes everything look so mechanical and a whole lot harder than it is. Just want to add one major element to the swing. His *cupped wrist* . I find it is the key to blending everything together. And best of all it really eliminates the dreaded two-way miss. Oh, and hint, it's only leisurely looking, not at all leisurely in practice. You hit it with everything you got. As Freddie said.
Thanks so much really appreciate you taking the time to post 👍
I love watching Freddie and Ernie Els swing.
Yeah me too….who’s your favourite?
@@CraigHansonGolf Probably Ernie.
@@carnivorouscanuck729 i was actually looking at Ernie Today he pivots down and bends into some incredible positions.. Be strong unit
who’s hyper mobile .. amazing
This is how i hit driver when its going good. Im open and trying to swing ever so slightly to the right. But actually when i hit solid i have a weird slight slide with my trail side foot not as severe as scheffler but the slide helps me get my trail thigh to touch the lead. After figuring this out i dropped 12 points off my handicap was a 15 at the time something happened now im slightly over a 3 at 3.2
For some reason that slight slide I have helps me stop from last second backing out of the shot
Exactly
I would love to see a comparison of Freddie's swing to an excellent ball striker with a more around the body swing. He seems quite upright which may be challenging for us seniors.
He’s 64 .. I don’t think seniors should swing to flat not if you want to keep your distance over the years.
Having said that we swing how we swing.
There’s some great information in this video. 👍
Hi Craig, that 'wall' is definitely the key, have you any thoughts on the Gary Edwin method, Right Sided Swing, I have just seen a few videos on the method and am curious what you think of it?
My name is Craig. Gary’s a innovator and a great coach
Oops sorry didn't have my reading glasses on, my apologies. Yes Gary is great!@@CraigHansonGolf
He uses his front shoulder like a pendulum, the way the shoulder is meant to rotate. He stays centered throughout the swing pushing his back elbow straight down, gives very good compression on the ball.He rotates with limited shifting.
He shifts a huge amount a bet large lateral push … which i have coverd in depth in many videos showing slow motion still camera clips …
I had that VHS tape of Freddy. I probably should have transferred to DVD. Darn.
If i move forward down and under how do i keep the clubface from being wide open? I struggle with shanks as of now. I am slowing my power and rhythm to 50% and it is helping. Very very slow, i feel like i need too to keep myself in position on downswing.
Well you are obviously missing one big mistake in the swing somewhere.
Shanks! ..are a fun stopper.
One of tell tales is people having to swing super slow not to shank.
I don’t know where the point of failure is. I could fix your shank immediately if i saw it… then you could pick up your swing speed again.
Instead of trying not to shank it… you could really work on other area of your swing.
Send your swing through to me from your cell/ mobile phone. There is also a complete 10 video shank series.

How can we swing like Freddy? It is not possible. We don’t have his flexibility. I think you’re one of the best teachers on the internet. I appreciate your expertise.
it’s more of a swing analysis and noticing what freddy does
When i do a swing analysis of a top player abs show a movement of them or a drill people seem to think that i think they can swing like freddy?
Let’s be honest most people’s swings are awful and they are lazy and out of shape.
I know that sounds bad but it’s truth. Believe me when i say i know people can’t swing like freddie i’ve given 42,000 lessons all over the world.
But people can improve their golf ..
Great video! Couple things. First, there’s throwers and there’s pullers. Fred is a thrower. Figure out what you are. Second, when Fred comes down and in from the top, he isn’t laying the club off. He has the shaft working on same plane. Very important to understand this. Do not try this move and lay that club off pointing your left wrist at the sky unless you want to hit shanks all day. Just my two cents
Thanks Derrick 👍👍
@@CraigHansonGolf you bet! Really enjoy your videos

Great video again mate 👍⛳️🏌️♀️Freddy just us the all time great swing . So easy
Isn’t it just amazing! I have a video of his swing on my phone in normal speed.
I watch it over and over. It’s really helped my rhythm on the golf course, I’m not joking 👍
Incredible swing to look at and analyse!
Thanks for posting
Fred is the wide narrow wide swing, when I attempt to copy, my back hurts, has Fred’s swing caused his back problems??
no most really long hitters over years have bad backs

Just saying, when i was young, the flying elbow was a teachers no go. I rejected lessons because just of that. I had jack nicklaus and fred couples in my mind. Our teacher had a tight right elbow and couldn't hit it past 260, albight straight mostly. But looked restrained. I hated that and went for distance and freedom of swing. Never looked back.
Less lateral shift with the driver vs the irons?
It’s the same bottom half lateral shift
Generally the head will move slightly more away from the target late into the downswing.
More separation.. The iron series abs driver series on WorldClassGolf.com go into the exact details
Got it!! My irons have more lateral shift than my driver. Probably explains why my preferred shot is a hold on cut with the driver and I get spooked by a pull hook with the driver. If I get lessons from your site, do I get them from you. Plus 2 handicap trying to become a better ball striker. Thanks for your response
@@laawson1 Yes of course you get them from me. Also personal Whatsapp contact and phone calls.
I teach lots of tour pros and leading amateurs online.
Here’s the different packages. You can contact me personally after you join i’ll send you my cell phone number. Here’s a quick look at the different packages and me talking about what you receive.
worldclassgolf.com/online-lessons
kind regards
Watching these pros, like Freddy, will give one an idea how they play the ball more forward with their irons. Pros play their irons more forward than most amateur's (most anyway) because of that lateral shift past the wall. With Freddy here you can see how much his left shoulder is forward from where it was at address.
it’s surprising, how far back freddie has his ball position with his driver though have you seen that?
@@CraigHansonGolfI know! Over the years, since he came on tour I have watched him, and always thought how does he hit it from there. When he used to hit fades all the time I do not see how he doesn't block it dead right from that position. I saw one video in slo mo, he would start turning his left hand down with some bow at about waist high on the downswing. Freddy has always blown me away with that syrupy smooth swing.
Right knee, right hand. Pure harmony right there folks.
Interesting. I am 76 and have lost 30 yds from age 60.I am more upright now because I worked on changing.Too flat before which required precise timing and a somewhat over the top move to get the clubhead to the ball.
definitely hit the ball further with more swing without a doubt the seniors that hit it further swing further back
I think I do some things well but a holdover from my old backswing is premature release.
Craig, what’s the US Masters?
Sorry about that i live in Germany and I get between languages because there’s so many master championships in Europe. I have to say the US Masters to people over here. I’ve been called a few times with that in CZcams ha ha ha
Started a push fade today with driver. Please help.
I have no idea what your golf swing swing looks like
As someone who struggles club throwaway to some degree on the DS, the thought of feeling the right side get lower puts the fear of god in me that I would hit soooo far behind it. But alas, I imagine that these improved dynamics would actually delay the timeline where the club head accelerates outward?
Yeah force yourself into the position in practice .. moving forwards - Down- and under
Does the term “under” refer to the right shoulder under?
Everyone thinks about the lower body In transition, but the club has to be “carried” forward without losing trail wrist flexion. Is see that as the trail arms job in transition… to float forward without losing wrist extension. Alan
The shot at 5:20 shows why he has so many back problems.
That’s a really negative comment
I've noticed that when I make really solid contact with my irons, I'm always moving slightly down to the ball. Not a lot, but just a little...
Yeah me too i know what you mean
There's absolutely no steering in Freddie's swing. Just free flowing, and all driven by his body.
Great hand motion lots of lag and full lead wrist extension after impact
Freddy's hands look very high - from some angles a very vertical swing plane.
I wonder how high in relation to tour average?
Definitely a slightly higher swing
Such a great swing but what’s the flaw that has ruined his back?
No idea

How do you even pick the club up like that?
What do you mean?
Is 55 Degrees why Fred Couples had such a problem with back trouble?
55 is the tour average
Strong grip needing wide open face at top and on the way down. Puts strain on the old back. Freddy did it to perfection but it is clearly not for everyone especially older players.
Great footwork and right leg
99% of people would play better with a stinger grip and better transition.
Freddy doesn’t have extreme bends
They are just normal
I don’t really understand what you are saying at 4:30. When I aim left, I come over the top and hit a weak fade. When I aim right, I keep my elbow tucked and the club behind me to hit a push draw. And you are saying the exact opposite of what I just stated.
to be honest i can’t be bothered going back into the video to look abs see why you don’t understand
Fantastic analysis Craig! Fred Couples' swing is legendary, and your insights are super valuable. I'm definitely trying that aiming-left drill. Can't wait for more of your content! 👏🏌♂
Thanks so much .. glad you enjoyed. I really enjoyed making this video 👍👍
thanks for taking the time to post
What I noticed is Freddie’s right foot rolls and doesn’t get on his toe until after impact
👍👍
I notice Fred Couples does not bend his knees much at transition, most good players bend their at the knees more. Has Dr. Rob Neal got data on his ground force profile?
i’ll have to ask him i know he has stuff on ernie els
@@CraigHansonGolf Couples generated a lot of club head speed and because the legs don't bend much it does not "seem" to come from the legs, but what is going on in the ground is what counts and he may be generating a lot of force out of the ground that is why I am interested in his force plate data. He has a big lateral shift I suspect that is where a lot of his force is generated that and suddenly breaking that force with the lead side. His left leg looks to be key in his force production.
He seems always open to the target line?
Yeah he is he hits a little fade
No one talks about the flying right elbow...
it’s a secret ..all the pros met and we decided not to talk about it…
If you think Fred’s foot work is good,then have a look what Moe Norman did with his foot work.
i did a video about him last week.. 🙈
When you turtle speed your swing...great things happen.
thanks for posting
i'll take fred's swing or payne stewart's swing ....thats it ....
👍👍👍
Ok what’s the deal with the gladiator music?
I found from another video in youtube i thought it was well put together. How it shows his pure rhythm and swing. Inspiring.
Before copying Fred's swing,be careful because he has had back pain for years,requiring surgery.
thank you Michael..i will pass that onto everyone
freds swing always looked very upright and handsy like he's throwing the clubhead at the ball which seems to go against most of the modern day teaching of more body pivot driven swing, but maybe that is an illusion.
Whats modern day teaching? Who’s teaching it?
And who’s a example of the modern day swing or release?
Couples has one of the best hand motions i’ve ever seen.
Amateurs don’t use their hands enough. Partly die to their talent level and partly because they believe it’s a mystery modern day body release that no one can show me.
Most amateurs are lost in the belief that a dynamic active hand motion is “ Handsy”
Effortless power comes through the hands.
ok, got it, thnx.@@CraigHansonGolf
Speaking of illusions… he also said that he tries to hit his driver as hard as possible. He’s just perfectly sequenced so he looks silky. Alan
Mike Austin ish.
