  • This golf tip is ahead of its time, its beyond belief that someone can go into this detail. I'm pretty sure you've never heard this golf tip before.
    EUREKA GOLF SWING

    For a golf swing that is CONSISTENT, provides a flat left wrist, compression, lag and more. Steve's EUREKA GOLF SWING is now being implemented in 52 countries taking the golfers game to a place that allows the body to turn, the flight to straighten and compression to become a reality.
    The starting place is the "iron swing series" offering the set of the Eureka Golf Swing canes and a step by step tutorial of the full action.
    REMEMBER: as Steve says, "There is a difference between opening your stance and aiming left".

  • @michaelryan2351
    @michaelryan2351 Před 2 lety +2

    Glen Wood, it’s exactly what I was going to say. I’m 66, and I’ve been playing golf since I was 13. I’m not exaggerating when I say that this may be the single best tip I’ve ever had. It’s exactly as Steve says. When you swing with this right hand grip change, you can feel the club dropping inside. I was always using pressure on the thumb and forefinger which caused tension, over the top tendency and difficulty releasing the club head.
    The strike now feels so different. It actually gets your entire body more in sync.
    All from a simple grip change.
    It’s nuts!
    Thanks Steve

    I wish I had discovered your channel sooner, you would save me hours of frustration on the range, never mind the golf course. Phenomenal, hands-on, but most importantly result-improving instruction. All this with a good sense of humour. One question, would this technique work equally well with the driver? Thank you.

    Nice! You're channel has given me the confidence to try breaking 90. You're my Ben Hogan swing coach. Distance is fine, swing is getting better, , tactics are good. Just need to groove in some consistency when laying up to chip into green..

    Thanks for the demonstration on the middle two fingers on the right hand. Squeezing them during the down swing never occurred to me.. I must have missed that when reading Hogan’s book. I do keep my right thumb an index finger quiet and relaxed, however.

  • @thomasfraser9072
    @thomasfraser9072 Před 2 lety

    Hi Steve I absolutely love your videos.
    You may recall that Ben Hogan wrote: ´Gripping the club with the right thumb and forefinger off the shaft helps golfers to accustom themselves to the feeling of strong, correct grip in which both hands works together as one unit. However he never suggested anyone to play golf this way.
    Hogan also wrote as you just demonstrated in your video. ‘The reason for applying a correct grip brings into play the correct movements of all the muscles of the golfer’s arms and body.’ He also strongly suggested that once the golfer sets his hands correctly on the grip as one unit it would be best to forget about manipulating with their hands and wrists as this takes tremendous timing and practice on any golfer’s part.
    You are 100 percent correct advising us viewer that in order to prevent casting of our club to never ever touch the tips of right trail finger with the tips of our trail right thumb. However this being said; I think you would agree that the trail thumb and index finger correctly placed on the grip as you demonstrated are essential to keep to preventing any wobbling of our club head at the top of our swing. Correct? And that once our grip is set on the club as one units as Hogan and you recommend, our hands and wrists on our club need not be manipulated by us in any way as the weight of the club head will work our hands an wrist for us. Cheers

  • @Brewtal2009
    @Brewtal2009 Před 2 lety +2

    Steve and anyone interested.. this has made the biggest difference in swing speed i've seen. I've been working on technique and speed just using my 4 iron in the garden/net for about 3 weeks. I could get to 96 mph using a wild step through, but that no good to man nor beast on course. Fastest I had with fast proper swing was 85mph. Just tried this for 30 mins video in myself and checking on prgr. After some practice I can comfortably repeat a 90mph swing. Dont get me wrong this is out my boots, but standard comfortable swing is now 83-85mph.
    Obviously I need to check strike etc, but I could see the difference in how right arm tucked in naturally and the relasing of pressure in index and thumb looks like it was a power leak.
    So long story short thanks and looks like this grip refinment has another benefit. At least for me. Well chuffed!!

    • @stevejohnstongolf
      @stevejohnstongolf  Před 2 lety +2

      That’s great news. It’s amazing how people pick up different elements of golf technique from my videos and not necessarily the topic of the actual video. That’s the beauty of our game, constantly evolving process.
      Thanks so much for the productive comments.

  • @robpottergolf
    @robpottergolf Před 2 lety

    Love it mate. Such a good way of looking at the grip and pressure. I remember doing this as a junior, and something I should perhaps go back too on the range and practice swing to eliminate the strike 👍

  • @JamesGirardi69
    @JamesGirardi69 Před 2 lety

    I tried this grip technique last week and was amazed how it changed my ball's flight path. My driver and iron were both a lot straighter. My buddy tried it too at the same time, but not with the same results. As much as he uses a strong grip and snap hooks the ball a lot, didn't work for him, but I don't blame this grip, I blame his strong grip. For me, I felt like I was more in the slot than before. Always trying to fight the "over-the-top" swing, this grip actually made me feel like I wasn't doing it as much. And with a round of golf with the most consistent swings in probably ever, it made the round very enjoyable. Thank you for your videos.

  • @gatesmw50

    "Pinching" is a strong reflex for me. This also prevents me from 'feeling' the clubhead during the swing. I literally take my right index finger off the club when I play, just like you discuss. Try it!

  • @jonq8714
    @jonq8714 Před 2 lety +1

    Holy. Shit. This tip, as well as a video on the right elbow (elbows before hands, hands before club) helped me hit my irons so flush, and with consistency I have been struggling so hard to obtain. I played today and it was almost as if someone else was taking my shots for me, it felt so good... and I was surprised by each shot even though by the end of the round I shouldn't have been. I was hitting the green from 170 yards out... I NEVER do that. Something else was almost as good as my shots: the sound of my swing through contact... like a real golfer! I only lost a few balls because I over-clubbed based on how I previously hit them, and of course I sliced a few into the woods with my driver. Baby steps.
    Thanks so much man. You're the best teacher on CZcams.
