- Dustin Johnson and Collin Morikawa hitting drivers, talking about all things technique, feels and thought processes that go into hitting their signature shot-the fade. What more could a golf fan want? Sit back and learn why the two swing the club the way they do. From their signature bowed wrist at the top of the backswing, to their aim points and details of the swing, these two major champion golfers cover it all.

These are easily the best videos taylormade puts out. The ones where it’s just two pros talking about what they are thinking and their process. Keep this up please!
Ya its all conversational, nice to see the pros doing something besides competing right?
Totally agree. No disrespect to the other guy who hosts these type of vids, but I definitely prefer this style
Collin great in these.
Very few professional athletes have the natural on camera ability Collin does. So engaging and easy to listen to. Quickly becoming one of my favourite players on tour for being both an exciting player and a well spoken individual.
Awesome player awesome dude. I back him every time he steps up
Nice to be able to watch a couple of pros talk through shots without the addition of some content creator asking them irrelevant questions that the audience doesn't care about.
We don’t need to name names…But I don’t miss Trottie in these videos. Collin did a great job. Jason Day also does a good job of leading the conversation.
agreeee
Every slicer right now: “See? I don’t slice! I cut it… just like DJ!”
hahahaha
💀
Minus 30 mph of ball speed and 70 yards of carry. Pretty much the same.
“I don’t try to bow my wrist”
They are literally born with this talent.
This comment. Literally what the fuck. My wrist feels like it’s gonna snap when I try to bow it
@@LeeTrevinoFans Not true. It doesn't just bow because they have a strong grip. Couples, Daly, Duval, Snedeker and tons of other strong gripers do not have a bowed wrist.
@@LeeTrevinoFans No they don't. They may at the bottom. But not at the top.
They bow it cause their right hands are strong and recruit just like a neutral Right hand....LH has to bow.
@@giii7599 Duval played shut. Couple and Daly had a flying elbow and a cup was a response. Sneds rotates the face away more than these boys.
I hit a cut to a fade to control my misses. And I have very high ball and swing speed. Everyone asks me to 'hit a draw and hit it evern further!'. But my power cut goes just as far as my draw swing. But most importantly I can talk to a cut, but a hook wont listen.
I went to a draw in my late 20s, and it hurt my game. I would always suggest a cut to most golfers that swing hard. If your swing speed is over 110, the cuts your friend.
I was just about to go do some comparisons with the launch monitor between my LD cut swing vs my draw swing. This is a great video that most people will hear 'cut and slice' and not 'manage your miss'.
Great video. DJ seems so relaxed with other tour players and Collin is effortless with his command of the conversation. More of these two please.
Collin did great here. Great questions and answers from DJ. Thanks for doing these!
my favourite shot shape is a fade, so a video with Collin Morikawa and DJ speaking about their preferred shot shape. Perfect. Thank you TaylorMade.
Thank you! These videos are AWESOME! So many nuggets in here! Loved heraring they aren't trying to fade it.
This is so helpful for me, thanks for the content. My past couple years have been a journey from 8 handicap to +0.6, and a lot of the stuff that interests me now is understanding what the pros do and don't ask of themselves. There are plenty of instances where they're more capable/talented than a good amateur, but there are also plenty of instances where they now how to hit the shots that are easy for themselves.
Hand's down best TM video!!!
Total winner TM!! Hope you have more with Dustin and Collin!
Now if I could actually hit a Taylormade driver that stays as my fade.....and not my slice!
Thank you again!
to hear pros say "the hardest shot to hit is a straight one" and "play your misses" just destroyed a huge mental block I've had since I've been trying to straighten out my fade
That’s the most I’ve ever heard DJ talking! 😂 Again great content. Keep them coming.
Lol 😄
Love this. Always wanted to see dj and collin talk since they both have bowed wrists and play the fade
Awesome video, 2 unbelievable golfers 👌
LOL at the “TIMMEH” from South Park at the beginning
This is gold. Thanks Taylormade
Love the bromance between these two
This is amazing info! Thanks!
I spent all my time as a junior trying to hit a draw, then grew up and spent the rest of my life trying to hit a fade. I believe Trevino said you can talk to a fade but a hook won’t listen. I’ve always played my best when I consistently hit fades, heaven help me when the double cross pops up though.
always had a natural draw/ overdraw 😞
some would kill for it they say, i find it a curse on near every course i play😂
Man I needed that just played one of my best rounds ever struggling to hit the draw so I leaned on the fade all day.. even putting
this was gold for me.
"Yeah I don't know either. That's just how I swing."
The most DJ quote of all time
Fantastic!
Great video
Interesting that as amateur player we all strive for a perfectly straight shot and here are 2 of the world's best basically controlling a slice
Always amazing how much you can learn with these, aim where you want the ball to start!
Omg, this is so infightfull. Thank you so much. When dj said you dont just swing it, but you try to hit it, it becomes hard. I am a natural fader and I play first nine two to four over par, and back nine always five to seven. I always wonderd why, but colin explained it in a perfect way. When you try to hit fade to hard (despite being your nattural swing), you star sliceing it. This almost always happens to me and it ruins my round, as i fall out of my normal tempo/rythm.
Not sure what the course or when but that 400 yard hole where Dustin just about drained his drive remains one of the best, if not the best, golf shot I have ever seen. You do not ever get to be World Number 1 without understanding your tendencies off the tee.
413 yard par 4. Kapalua Golf Club. Sentry Tournament of Champions.
Awesome Vid!
When I was a junior golfer, I was told to aim my club face where I wanted to start the ball, and my feet where I wanted it to end. I’m not sure that advice was correct, but somehow I made it work. Once I got better my body just knew what a fade or draw swing felt like.
Very interesting actually - not sure if it’s 100% right, maybe missing an ingredient, but I like the format of the thought - gonna have to experiment with how that feels, thanks
Very interesting how Colin talks about the bowed wrist and face control. As an amateur I have done this for my drives and I found it to be more consistent but I also find it adds pressure to the wrist.
The harmony at 4:20 was the start of their bromance
Hahahahaa incredible how you noticed that 😅
the bowed brothers!!
as someone who only knows how to hit a draw and can’t hit the fade for the life of me this is great content! gonna try it out on the range
Had this same issue. I would do all the advised tips: align left, swing along your body, etc., and would still hit draws. Then I consciously started to hit big slices and try to calm the slice spin down with each subsequent swing. And it worked. I still hit the draw as my natural shot, but I now have the confidence to hit a fade when the shot requires it. Also, when I practice, I try to hit a different shape with every swing. It really helps you learn face control quicker and more efficiently than just repeating the same swing each ball.
I like DJ comment its about your misses. Nice to see DJ and Colin swing next to each other. Two awesome golf swings.
Nice conversation.
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the lesson- You must trust that the ball will cut/peel.
DJ is about to LIV his best life
I want another video of Colin talking about fade hairstyles
The most important part of hitting a fade, is to make sure you fade it - dj
I hit from where the tee box is not beat up on the courses I play.
Or where they're flat because the tee boxes aren't flat
Not a luxury I have on the course I play
@@walterkerns1880 Tee's where the ball is below your feet and there's water on the right are the worst, closely followed by tees where the ball is above your feet and there's out of bounds left all up the fairway on a par 5....very cheeky tactics by the course designer.
Definitely like the flight of a cut more. Unfortunately for me I lose too much distance with the spin. Great content TM!
TXG put out a great video recently
It is possible to play a cut with draw levels of spin I just forgot how to explain it
Collin is not the longest driver & DJ is trying to reduce 30 yards off of his driver that flies too far
i think it’s important to realize that like collins is kinda like a different type of fade idk… his weak grip and interesting release is something to think abt. and idk if dj loses distant but he is a big guy… and the bow wrist probably helps
@@childish2446 yeah they do seem to do those for different reasons just coincidentally reached there respectively. for dj's i've heard somewhere in his own words he wants less distance ("30 yards" iirc) and instead he wants more control, which he does achieve by hitting fade every time
@@ryo0ka936 collin is a cutie and his golf swing is crazy cool.. its so diff
Collin will make a great announcer after he gets sick of winning majors.
He's a natural at talking about the game. You can tell that for DJ a lot of it is based on feel and more intuitive but Collin is so detail oriented and mechanical with his approach. Great to see the contrast
@@suns2756 Exactly, but I think these two both come out with the same result of "I just stand up there and hit it based on how my body feels it." They just have different journeys to that result!
I like big Cuts and I cannot lie
I've got this fade which just goes and goes
I need a sponsor for the summer so I can take work off to practice everyday and play competitively.
I think the bowed wrist comes from keeping the face square to the target line despite having a weak grip. See so many guys try to emulate the bow with their strong grip but theyre so focused on the un natural wrist action they dont notice the ball flying off the hosel until its too late
It’s a shame we won’t see these guys play together in these vids or in the Ryder cup. They are so different but seem to mesh well
Spoke a day too soon mate
Together they have a grand slam
I personally love fades more than draws. It’s more natural to me and easier to control than a draw.
me too..I love my 370 yard cut drives..I can depend on them being in the short grass
@@goutfromfriedokra7099 cool
Oh yeah totally. I love my 410 yard soft fades off the tee. Easy shot for me guaranteed in the fairway
@@lionbear7078 noice
Same here. Love my easy 450 yard soft 9 irons that I know will be middle for diddle.
Two of the best giving unique insight into swing and club face patterns and you don't include.. swing and club face data. In this video, only having the ball data from GC Quad wasn't aligning to what they were talking about. I would have loved to see the data on how they are delivering the club after talking about it.
When I clicked I knew it was gonna be 90% Colin talking trying to force answers out of DJ
Collin has been watching good good labs talking about bent wrist!
I love how after all this talk about what they focus on and trying to give instructions on how they hit fades with the driver, they're both just like "I don't really try to do this, I swing normal and it just happens".
Everybody hits good shots ha says. Broooooooo I never do.
I hit a draw naturally and can hit fades on demand on the range but on the course is a different story lol
I love hearing them describe how they aim, that’s the difference with the very best and the journeyman, alignment is everything, just look at Colin’s first drive he hits here, he aims less left than he intends and it starts right and turns too much then his second one he’s set up
Perfect and see how it flies perfect. There’s a reason scheffler and Cantlay are always at the top because they are so consistently set up where they think they are.
Anyone hear the Timmy from Southpark soundbite added to the start of music after the intro 😂 so random
Can you make a talking draws video
Wish I could play a fade but I just don't have the swing speed to make up for a loss in yardage
You ahouldn't be losing much yardage if any in the air if your hitting it right (not to high which is what some people do for some reason). The main loss will be in the roll which unless your playing on a flat track course in summer isn't gonna amount to much. Don't hit the ball to high, just think straight and then let it kind of just move slightly. Don't hit the big slice and think its how a fade is meant to be, it's not.
How many people praising this video are now hating on DJ since joining LIV I wonder?
Should have been titles "Catching Fades"
I am always amazed that players at this level struggle playing both a draw and a fade. Many famous teachers advocated that you should learn to draw the ball first, as that is a more proper swing, and then learn to move the ball the opposite way. You can fade the ball with a draw swing, as long as you change your setup properly, yet many tour guys have trouble with it. I know that with today's equipment, a draw isn't necessary as it was in the past, but I still think it's crazy that a professional tour player doesn't have a reliable draw in the bag.
Fades are the shot! Need more subscribers to retire and play with DJ & CM
so bow the wrist is not on purpose?
Add angle of attacks for each guy and face path,,,do it,,,do it,,backspin as well,,,
Dj just wants to hit a ball.
Does adidas still owns taylormade?
Anyone else fade their irons and draw their driver?
Yes and i like it because on my course left misses are 100x better than right from teebox
All this talk about lines, DJ must be fiending
01:53
06:37
Can you talk slices
I’ll take these videos over the cheesy stuff ALL day long.
Makes me laugh how some coaches try to teach bowed wrists just goes to show it's BS and natural
Every coach on Instagram try to teach the bowed wrist
Fades have more sex appeal than draws
DJ literally said he's playing badly when his ball goes too straight. What a problem to have.
Hogan said if he hit it straight , he missed it because he always saw curvature
power fade off the driver is the best easiest shot to learn to play. You won't ugly slice as long as you rotate. your misses will be pulls. Natural swing. F a draw.
Those carry numbers can't be right
They're not always bombing it 300+. There could be a headwind on this day. Notice how the ball was flying really high.
also ive noticed I think DJ has had some driving problems this year, and maybe not trying to hit it as far? or losing a touch of flexibility? idk
@@oldben1800 not sure what's going on, but his driving has been off. He's on record saying it's on track to be fixed soon tho. He said something about how it's right there
Im uncomfortable with Colin's underwear pants
Jesus loves you all and died for our sins .
Cheers Jesus pal. If he could sort me out with a consistent fade too that would be sick 🤙🏼
@@ashmurdoch23 lmfaooo
Bro I’d die for a new Stealth right now tbh
Jesus can buy me a Stealth 😂😂😂
But could he fade?
Morikawa: “you can hit another one”. Subtlety assuming the alpha role.
the thing I noticed about these guys (team whatever) is that none of these guys ever "listen" to what the other guy says. they are so full of themselves that they only hear the sound of their own voice.
DJ isn’t interesting all this video shit , he’s most least enthusiastic about golf as it comes
He just wants to play , earn some coin and go home 😂
what DJ is trying to say is its instinct he just plays the shot the way it feels very simple collin get back to me you have my email
Cool chat between two top tier players. I thought it was interesting that they actually prefer one side of the tee box. The first general rule I heard was tee up on the side of the trouble. As far as fades go, Pros prefer to cut the ball to hold greens on the approach and to take out the left side of the fairway off the tee. As Trevino said, a fade will listen.. hooks don't.🏌♂
Great video
