Let us know in the comments below if this golf tip helps or not and what you would like to see more of on Mark's golf channel.
I have watched your vlogs on a daily basis ( a few to several), for a couple years now, and maybe I'm becoming in sync with the timing of your teaching for I began to use a similar technique a couple of days ago at the range. As a lower middle class self taught junior, I picked up the game "again" after a 20 year absence, and have finally learned how to correctly swing the golf club through your vlogs (still can't afford lessons). As a 60 year old mid handicapper, I have been struggling to reach long par 4's in two. Now, through this "use the ground" technique, I feel I'm finally using the strength in my legs properly, and my shots with my driver, woods, and hybrids are going longer and straighter. I'm now looking forward to facing those 400 plus yard par 4's. I'm an informational analyst by trade, and since this will probably be my only comment, I want to say that you are by far the best teaching pro and equipment reviewer on CZcams. My job is to find and tell the truth, so I greatly appreciate your honesty and your continual commitment to it, no mater if the feedback is positive or negative. I also so appreciate your nature to analyze and fine tune the golf swing to make it the most efficient possible. These passions are so refreshing in this land that lacks critical thinking. I'm off to the range to work on my irons with this new technique. Thank You!!
Have noticed I’ve been hanging back lately- going to give this a try - thanks Mark
These latest instruction videos you have done lately are the business and I've read and watched loads in 25 years of golf. Cheers brah
Great content and fantastic presentation in all your videos. Helping me a great deal in West London. Thanks mate
That’s great to hear. 👍
Cheers. I will try this down the range.
As with the Hip Turn video Mark, I'm sure I've seen Dan do this drill as well. You put your right heel up, you put right heel down, you pick your left heel up and you belt it out of town.
Excellent tip. Cheers Mark
AND...what I'm finding is that this has also helped me enormously in drilling consistent tempo. Once again, great, easily understood informative instruction Mark!
Mark Crossfield, this must be the best advice I've ever learned from your videos, thank you very much!
Mark great communicators take the complex and make it simple. You have an uncanny ability to do this. My game has improved from watching your teaching videos and I look forward to trying to employ this technique as well.
I've been doing this drill at home and work all week. Struck the ball so well today. Great video.
Great tip Mark, I tried this yesterday at the range and it worked a treat
Going to try this at the TopTracer range in Winchester this afternoon in preparation for a game Sunday morning. I am playing a course I played last Tuesday for the first time, again. The problem with Tuesdays game was that I rolled into about 4-5 ditches. I just need another 5-10 yards on my driver and I will clear them. Wish me luck!!!
I'll try this tip about using
The ground mark.
It will help my swing
Plenty practice required.
Thanks
I have struggled for a long time “swaying/shifting” toward the target line. I usually hit the ball fairly straight, but lose distance from the shift. I tried this drill today and the first few felt REALLY strange. But after a few, it was a tremendous help! Thanks for the awesome teaching! I wish was able to come to England and have a few lessons, I relate to your teaching style better than anyone else I have seen.
Thanks again,great tip to work on. I know that I am not using the ground well. Will be trying this out next days off.
Let me know if it helps
Great ideas Mark - correct weight shift and how to turn into the ground have made such a difference to my swing and strike - great stuff thanks!
Hi Mark
Thanks for the great vids!! Watched this yesterday, took it to the driving range to practice and played a round today, using the pressure shift. Played my best round ever (87 shots on a par 72 at hcp 21.6, improved by 3.5 to hcp 18.1!)
I'll keep practicing, hoping to improve even more!
Nice technical video Mark..
Thank you
Really loving these quick instructional videos Mark! Was thinking of how I can use my legs more in my swing the other day. Thanks!
Great series, keep them coming. I really like the disclaimer you make regarding who this information and drill will benefit (and who it won't).
An idea I like to use when thinking of using the ground is that it is a change in "pressure" from one foot to the other rather than a "weight shift". The idea of "shifting my weight" onto the back foot always made me tend to sway or move away from the ball excessively (as you demonstrated) rather than getting me to simply shift pressure from one foot to the other while keeping my centre of mass relatively stable. I've found the thought of a "weight shift" causes many people to imagine a much bigger movement than should actually occur, so maybe that term should be thrown away when discussing the golf swing?
One of the things I am working on the most at the moment. Thanks for the video!
More tips and drills for using the ground please!
Great video. I could use this exercise with some of my clients right now.
This could be big for me, thanks! I feel like I’m a range mat hero and always pure my irons there... but then once I’m on the real ground I get afraid of chunking or become timid at taking divots. End up thinning those or actually chunk them.
Many thanks! I will give it a try.
Oh the feels!!! Love it!
Perfect Drill!!
Great tip currently already trying this and is helping control shots better
I finally subscribed...I have been watching your videos for awhile now. I really enjoyed this video in particular. I look forward to trying it out on the range. Weight shift has always been an issue for me. I really believe this practice technique will help :-)
What a great tip. I struggle sometimes with lateral weight transfer so this will really help. oh, and nice view over the water. Thanks brah ,this is a good one
good tip going to try this thanks
very good stuff I'll have to give it a go
Hi Mark, I've been trying this and it has made a huge difference to the quality of my strike and has made me feel much more as though my swing is seamless through the back and downswings. I would like to ask, though, whether there are any downsides to incorporating the drill into your general swing? Are you giving up power if you don't get the whole soles of your feet on the ground, or is it just a balance/stability thing. To me the whole process feels natural and I've been hitting it as well as I ever have done. Thanks so much for this tip it is a real game changer.
That looks like an interesting technique...definitely one to have a go at: good one Mark 👍🏌🏻♂️⛳️
Great vid brah
Gunna try that drill cheers mark
Thought you were going into the ' no look shot' for a minute there ... What speed swing is recommended, start slow and speed up to normal, or just start with normal swing?
Good vid thanks for the trip/advice
The measured (tour player) weight shift happens mostly at the TOP of the back swing. Not the downswing. This downswing thought was very negative for me. Check out some measurement vids of good ball strikers (people reading this...not Mark). Helped me a lot.
Similar to Bubba’s footwork. Great stuff Mark! 👍🏼⛳️
Good vid bro
this is a good drill, I do it during my warm-up for drivers and woods shots. Marc, I think the guy from topbloke golf whatever is an uncontrolled fan of you. HAHAHA. anyway, thank for the vid.
Hmm. I tend to lift my left foot a bit on the backswing, and it's been bothering me... perhaps I should use that tendency instead to gather some strength from my legs.
What about toe vs heel weight? Keep hearing different views on this. More planted on heel vs more forward leaning on toes got me confuddled. Cheers bruh
That’s the molinari move!
Do you think this helps strike because you stop thinking about strike? I.e. it’s your natural strike (just hit it) because you’re thinking about feet / pressure?
So left foot right eh. RMW! Aka flow motion
I have always lifted the rear of my left foot off the ground. My downswing move starts with the left foot slamming back to the ground. For some reason, when I try to keep the foot on the ground I seem to lose power and distance.
Is that shaft hand crafted? I like Dan's trigger. His left toes come off the ground for a split second. Initiates that weight shift. I do a small bump myself. #triggermyswing
Stack and Tilt described this over 12 years ago...extension in the backswing, flexion into downswing and extension into the follow through again. everyboyds worried about power but nobodys hitting it any straighter....hmmm...
As opposed to other drills which are a bit feely, this one's definitely heely
Try using the term of pressure instead of weight
Also stopped my shanks on downhill lies 👍🤘
That’s good news.
I play of 11 mark At mickleover golf club par 69 but struggling to hit small greens at present- any tips brah - bomb ball or placement do you advise off the tee brah
They feel more powerful, is it?
Take the plastic off the legs of your bag already Mark!
I'm all over the place with everything at the moment bruh 😭
Non of this matters : it’s all about how you grip the club 🤫
Works tried it and now I have a draw
👍😀
Nice job copying Dan Whittaker's last video.
Haha this is a drill from a video I did over a year ago. Haha CZcams comments can be so naive sometimes it’s cute. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🙈😘
Another little point this video was filmed over two weeks ago. Haha Alex do you think you have posted a really good post. I think you have really got some gold here. 👍👍👍👍
'Ground forces' are like the 'X factor' and all the other teaching fads and fazes that come and go in golf, it's just the flavour of the month at the moment.
It's a simple fact of physics that you cannot use the ground, it has no 'force', all you are doing is pushing off the ground to different degrees, it's simply bending the knees more.
Is there anything new about getting the weight over your right foot, Old Tom Morris probably told that to Young Tom Morris back in the day.
But nowadays, there are , apparently 'FORCES FROM THE GROUND', available to us gullible Suckers out there in Golf wasteland.
Just be careful out there, folks, and don't abuse the power of the ground, it might just flip you over and you'll do yourself an injury.
What a weird rant. Hope you feel better now. Wow. How odd.
@@MarkCrossfield
.How odd?
You're the one demo'ing a weight transfer/sequence drill, and the title is 'use the ground for longer golf shots' !!!
The ground, in this instance is only used to stand on, and change pressure points on, it's got nothing to do with the drill, you could do this standing on a table !
Then if you called it, 'use a table for longer golf shots', people would think you were winding us up.
What's the difference?
