    Ok, I tried this yesterday and today. I was feeling so down about my swing lately and this TOTALLY CURED my swing!!!! I cant believe how much of difference this simple to implement tip changed my game. I am amazed!!!! My golf buddies were blown away at the transformation. My drives and irons were straight as an arrow and long! It took me a range session to get this down, but now that I have it I can see some great golf in my future! Thanks so much for your awesome videos!

    I'm legally blind (loss majority of my central vision) and as such use assistive technology to watch videos and to read/write text om my computer. I found this video so easy to follow and your simplistic method of instruction is so conducive to my type learning needs. I use a 2/3 cross-over iron off o the tee because I have such a difficult time lining up the ball squarely off the face of the club. I have pretty good success with the long irons and I'm looking forward to trying this new technique the next time I play golf. Thanks again. Steve, Ottawa, Canada.

    I've suffered badly with a slice this year and tried a few things. Been to the range today to try this out and I was shocked at how much it made a difference. I now have an idea of setting my hips and feet before teeing off that stops the crippling slice. Thank you so much for this tip and info

  • @simplistyc3317
    @simplistyc3317 Před 2 lety

    Wow! What a difference. This changed my slice to straight & long! 3/4 of my first shots with this setup were pure & 30 yards further. When I do miss hit I just push it a little; no more ugly curves to the right! So friggin’ cool. Thank You!!

  • @Evo0304
    @Evo0304 Před rokem +2

    Clay I want to thank you for this video, the back tilt and the hip movement have really helped me out. I am 64 years old, I started playing golf 2 years ago. I could hit a driver consistently 220 to 240 yards but always with either a small slice or a HUGE slice. After watching this video I went to the driving range and NEVER sliced a ball, I felt really weird like a fish out of water, but it just worked. I have a Garmin Approach S62 watch and yesterday whilst playing gold I never sliced my drive and I was consitantly over 240 yards and on one drive (and no it wasn't down hill) I hit my drive with a beautiful small draw 304 yards.
    Thank you mate I now just have to convince my old body that it is comfortable :-)

    Clay i just recently found your videos and this one in particular made a huge improvement-for me to stop my slicing tendencies. I just went and practiced this and ive never felt better contact than i did just now and the ball didnt hit the ground until well after the 200 mark on my range. Thank you so much. I’ll be saving all your videos to my favorites.

  • @nonnikcamffej

    I just made this one change in my setup today and hit 13/14 fairways! Even the one fairway I missed it was a straight push to the right I was able to recover from and didn't lose distance like I normally would with a slice or hook. Just came back on to say thanks for the tip & you just got a new subscriber. Thanks!

  • @hermiesadler
    @hermiesadler Před 2 lety

    I have been trying to fix my slice/fade for many years. I’ve watched thousands of videos and even paid a virtual swing coach to make adjustments to my swing. THIS VIDEO FIXED MY DRIVE!! I have NEVER been able to hit a draw with my driver… until I watched this video. I had already tried leaning/tilting my upper body during setup. However, the trick that fixed it all was slightly closing my hips during setup as described in the video. Immediate results! First hit with my driver was a nice little draw right down the middle!

  • @larrybertrand5716
    @larrybertrand5716 Před 4 lety +4

    Clay, I started using this little bump of the hips method and it's changed my distance, on my driver, and it helped me square up my irons as well. My drives are almost 300 on carry, and my 6 iron easily hitting 200. Just from this 1 move. I went from 92+, to 88, to my best score ever, 81. Thanks for changing my game for the better. CZcams is the great instructor!! Glad you're apart of it!! Thanks again for the help I needed.

    My wife and I have just started playing - both of us are 45 - and we have been on the course (9 holes) about 20 times in the past month. We have had 5 lessons with a golf pro, but the CZcams videos and insight from Clay Ballard have really helped and have actually provided more insight than the in-person pro lessons. Not a member of Top Speed yet, but I'm a believer. I have seen videos instructing players to ensure they complete a full backswing, but this lesson operationalizes that and provides a useful tool to ensure that you get a proper turn. It helped me move from walking through the woods to hitting the fairway with my drives. It's amazing how much more fun golf can be when you stay on the fairway and aren't being eaten by mosquitoes...

    A total yardage difference of 100 yards! I shall never again setup with square hips! Clay, I recall a Golf Digest article from a long time ago revealing a 42 yard gap between square and 9 degrees outside in. Your path was more pronounced, so bigger numbers, but even if it wasn't a 20 degree difference like in your example, say like in the Golf Digest example, only a 9 degree difference results in 42 yards! How much would we pay for a driver that gave us 42 stinking yards! Alot! Much gratitude for this vivid demonstration of what might be THE most unconsidered element of distance in golf instruction. (Until You!)

My miss being leaving the ball right... that said is early Extention from the hips a result of the set up position or bad sequencing from the top produce (for me) that wipe shot you used as an example. Lastly I'm absolutely amazed at 3mp increase from the inside path produced 90 additional yards!

    Clay, love watching your instructions, so natural and intuitive explanations.
    One thing I feel I struggle with is a consistent grip, if I feel good with grip I feel more confident over the ball but quite often I don't have that 'good grip' feeling. Can you provide instructions specifically on good grip and how it changes between driver and irons (if there is a difference). Cheers. Sanjay

      @@TopSpeedGolf Many thanks Clay. Any adjustments between an iron grip and driver grip?

    always great information , my question is will closing your stance be just as effective?

    I can’t rotate my hips/body the natural way in a golfswing, so I began using a very strong grip for my driver to prevent slice (the only club I slice) and it has made a huge difference. The ball goes straight and longer. Before my swing was pretty awkward.

    I’ve been able to hit a draw with my driver and hybrids by changing my grip but I’m gonna try this too. It gets tough when you can hit a draw and fade depending on the swing.
