I'm 47 and currently play off a 2 h'cap, and have struggled with early extension my entire life. This video has been the best and easiest piece of advice I have ever seen / heard to fix it. I took it straight into my local comp today (no range session but I did hit 10 balls in the nets first). The feeling of dropping my chest down towards the ball through impact felt odd but my hands and arms quickly figured out where they needed to go to hit the ball cleanly. I noticed real and easy compression for the first time ever! My irons were at least a half a club longer, and my driver was a good 10 metres further. Swing speed increase was instantly noticeable. I have my Club Championships coming up in a month, this gives me real excitement!
That's awesome to hear! Let me know how the championship goes!
Local pro at my golf club explained this yesterday.
Solid advice!
I tried this and was hitting it better than ever, just plain smoking it! My thanks for the excellent explanation on why it works as well as what to do. Wish I had seen this 40 years ago. Many thanks, you have so changed my contact and improved my game.
Fantastic lesson!!! The exaggeration method is an excellent way to teach.
Extremely well explained!!! Thanks 🙏🏼
cant wait to try this on the range... many thanks...
In my opinion this is the most valuable and well explained tutorial I have ever seen on TSG. Thanks so much.

This makes so much sense! I love these videos that talk more about "feel" vs "real"
Really one of the best and instant game changer. Thank you so much. So well explained.
This is the best lesson I’ve ever seen bravo
Great video clay will work on that move also would you mind aquire the precision impact wrist key as that is my big problem at impact much appreciated thanks

Makes perfect sense. Ty
Fantastic instruction!
Glad you think so!
This feel is so important and takes a while to truly find, but I believe this feel is one of the most important for consistent ball striking.
Perfect video
Excellent video. Can't wait to get to the range to try this.
Good instructor. Well explained concepts.
Glad you think so! Play well!
Thanks.Been looking this idea for years.And tested this morning by short pitches.Didn't need to exert force.Force was about double by chest lowered and my usual flips vanished automatically.
Got this idea years before by watching pro swings but had no proof.
This is a very good proof to have self confidence.
Perfect! Glad to hear. Be sure to let me know how it goes when you play a round!
Really good video. I got a few of these moves happening but wasn't squaring the club face correctly. Shots were shooting out to the right which I've never done before. I'll be working on this some more next time I hit the range. Thanks again for the video.
You need to rotate the hips still. Sounds like you keep chest down but slide hips right then left. Assuming you're right handed move left knee forwards on the backswing dropping left shoulder towards the ball. On downswing feel the chest compression down towards the ball, pushing right knee forward and left leg straight. Your hips will rotate and you'll stop any pushes to the right or slices.
Great explanation! I was always confused when someone said "Cover the Ball".
With a medium swing speed, and delofting the club head, isn't the trajectory too low for approach shots?
Took to the range today and wow. Hope i can do it on the course. Same thought with driver or no since you're not compressing, not hitting down through ball? Tried it a little with driver. Didn't get the clear benefit i saw with irons.
Is this only applicable for Irons? or also for Hybrids and Woods?
I agree with Mase Vaughan, don’t you need height to be able to stop the ball on the green on approach shots?
what club would you recommend when you first start this drill?
This chest down method is also a great way to minimize over extension.
Would you also cover the ball with hybrids and woods?
I would like to know the same, good question.
Why not? You hit down on them as well just not as much.
You want to hit “up” with those clubs
Would you be more consistent keeping your head in the same position? I think there was a guy that kept his head still. Jack something?
Kinetically speaking, TSG is the finest golf system explained anywhere.
I like this idea, but I worry about not being able to make the weight shift and then hitting behind the ball.
How can this be applied to a FW or driver?
Can you do the same with a DRIVER SWING?
What you say makes sense but I never understood forward shaft lean with actual release that create power
Isn't this like squating? I focus on my belly button getting lower on the downswing than it was at address, and the result is the same, it keeps my behind back, eliminating early extention, and i cover the ball as well! To me, focusing on my belly button was easier to visualise and understand!
What you're saying makes sense, and I'm sure you're correct. My problem is, we're adding 3 more swing keys that I'll need to apply during the half second that the club is descending (cover the ball with your chest, shallow the club, and roll the hands to square the club face). I think I'm up to about 73 now (shift the weight, rotate the hips, come from the inside, keep the head down and behind the ball, keep the weight from front to back evenly distributed, extend through the ball, watch your tempo, relax the arms, start your swing at the feet and then hips, don't early extend, don't unhinge the wrists too early, keep the right elbow close to the chest, keep the left arm straight, etc.). Maybe golf isn't my sport. I need to find a fishing CZcams channel.
Golf is an athletic sport.
Maybe that's my problem.
Just think in terms of blending the movements ... blend as many as you can put in practice reps without the ball ...
Thinking about keys is for practice, drill one key at a time. When you go to the course, play golf. Heavy emphasis on “play”. Pick a target, hit a shot, smile. Do it again. Your sponsor will enjoy it a lot more, if, like me, your sponsor is you.
@@josepharnold1345 Sure, but if I start topping the ball in the middle of a round (which happens from time to time), do I just keep playing golf (and scoring a 167), or do I go through my swing keys to try to diagnose the problem?
It’s a good video. But I’d say the purpose is to remove thin and fat shots. Steepens the body, but paired with shallow arms, no issues. If you thin it, this keeps you down so you hold your angles and don’t thin it from standing up too early. If you chunk it, this is a steepening move which would be ideal to get the club to not bottom out as early.
This makes perfect sense. But I'm afraid it will increase my tendency to hit fat shots.
De-lofting the clubface simply (and beneficially) makes for lower, and longer, ball flight. Club head speed is what increases compression on the golf ball. The putter is the most de-lofted club, but compresses the ball the least...because of it’s very slow club head speed.
Never fully understood “covering the ball” till I watched this video.
Shall I top it ?
Did he say what iron he is using?
Where should the weight on your feet be when our chest is over the ball. I almost feel like I'm going to fall over on my toes
Not in your toes. I like the feel of being slightly in the heel at the top of the backswing, and pushing toward the target side from there. At impact my weight feels like it gets just to the ball of the foot. The turn from there to the follow through will bring you around, and naturally let your heel come off the ground. This is all right or trail foot. Any feeling of being over your toes will be a feeling of imbalance, and you will start to try and save the swing. All kinds of bad things can happen at that point.
@@paulpanamarenko thank you my man
I worry about hitting the ground before I hit the ball
covering the ball is NOT being low to the ball. imagine a paint brush hanging from the middle of your chest, try and paint over the ball, “cover it with paint“, before you make contact. yes, you need to stay low to do this, but staying low is NOT the only point.
If the point of this is just to get your shoulders nearer to the ground, why not bend your knees instead of leaning forward at the hips? This removes any problems with changing the plane of your swing.
Well... I won't get FORWARD SHAFT LEAN outta my head today
What is it, did he mention it?
@@stevenmasters3536 once or twice
That's not the definition of "covering the ball" that I have heard from other instructors.
I'll be the one to ask... Where tf is clay? Lol
lol thanks saved me doing it.
He over did it and got +200 yards total 😂
Why not just use a club with less an angle and none of this is needed?
The real benefit of this is getting your hands ahead of the ball at impact. The delofting of the club face is a secondary issue and just a way of measuring how far ahead of the ball you got your hands.
If you do that, you don't the the compression between the club and the ground which shoots the ball out faster.
Just a personal opinion, but you guys are pushing the "Anti-Roll Method" thing a little too much. I'm just not a huge fan of how this is tacked on to the end of every video.
Not to mention that you won't see the anti-roll method on their paid subscription site.
Covering the ball is the stupidest term in golf.
It is. So confusing..
@@ibrodinho focus on your belly button instead. In your downswing, think of lowering it a bit compare on what it was at address. It will keep your butt back, you will squat naturally whithout even thinking about it, impossible to do early extention this way, and shaft lean will occur i guarranty it! This is the only way that i understood what covering the ball was! Try to find golf teacher MILO on youtube or Éric Cogorno, they explains it very well! Good luck!
