The Big Mistake 90% of Golfers Keep making with Driver - EASY TO FIX

This is why you might struggle to hit driver straight and long👇
1. Ball position is in the wrong place
2. Your forearms are not in line at set up - BIG ONE
3. Your posture is misaligned at set up
4. You don't control the club face in the correct way. (This can be a Power Leak too)
What's great is if you have any one of these faults in your golf swing they are really easy to fix and can make an instant impact on the quality of your ball striking not just with your Driver but with your irons too.
For example if you want to hit your driver straight just getting the forearms aligned at address will be a real eye opener for you.

ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On CZcams and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

Danny I received something from you that seems to have disappeared unless I dreamed it up. Did you send me a message?

[@DanielMaude]

@@davidkramer194 if it disappeared it was probably someone impersonating saying you’ve won something. We are deleting all scam comments

[@davidkramer194]

I was all excited telling my wife that you were going to do a lesson with me but it looks like you retracted the message? I'm not camera shy at all as I am a senior recruiter at Amazon and so I would happily be in a video with you so you can help us from yoyo'ing back and forth between a hook and a slice. I cured my slice and now I'm hitting a duck hook. 🤪

[@davidkramer194]

@@DanielMaude awwe I was so excited. Yeah they were asking me to send direct message to you for my "free lesson". What a cruel cruel person to play on that. I saw another video today that gave me an epiphany moment that I've never had in golf. I'm so surprised that it wasn't you. because you're pretty much the only person I watch. My son clicked on a video on the way to the range and I think if you did a video showing this exercise you would do it even better. I don't know if I can send you the video through direct message, because I have been playing for 7 years, and this one single video made me play better than I've ever played in my life. I used the technique from that video, and the tiger pause drill, and driver coin drill. And even though I was dying in 100 degree weather I was still hitting better than ever.
The one last thing im struggling with is how tight to squeeze the club. I'm getting blisters on my fingers and I'm not sure if that's normal, or I'm squeezing too hard. I know I get a lot more distance than all of my mates with my Irons, and I think I attribute it to that but it could be a bad connection. I also notice that my stupid thumb tries together up on top of the club which always makes me hit bad. I'm trying to keep it out of the way. Anyways I was happy thinking I was going to do a lesson with you. Maybe next year when you aren't booked. I'm wondering how we communicate and you watch my swings at the same time. Is it like a face time through the laptop?

Danny love the videos both my driver and iron shots have improved vastly. I’m a decent ball striker always struggled for distance on driver. Really helping recent one where you said hands put driver up body turns the driver has really helped.

Beginning at the 5:00 min mark on Danny explaining about how coming in late thru the arc and hitting more underneath with the trail shoulder instead of over through the impact area is a game changer.

Very informative as usual Danny. Lately I’ve been guilty of pushing the occasional drive out to the right resulting in missed fairways. I’m right handed and driver is usually my best club and play with a baby draw. My mates have pointed out that I’m aligning my feet and shoulders too far right which I’ve come to realise to be spot on. In other words I’ve been overdoing the draw shape in my head.

I havnt played in about 5 years or so.i thought my swing was good, but watching some of yr videos made me think otherwise.. the thing I struggle with is how much of a bend to put on my legs. And how far from the ball my feet should be..so I just used to try all methods until I started hitting the ball straight..and then someone came along and said im doing it all wrong..so had to re learn.then someone else come round n said yr doing it wrong..so clubs went in boot and jacked it in..well im back and eager beaver to try again.. so here I am watching you ( the correct way) now I have to learn again 😒 the worst thing for me is people watching me (psychological)...then I get all tense and end up fluffing it. Anyway id love to see you with a cheap set against yr own set to get yr personal opinion... ive paid a little over £400 for my set, darnt go no more incase I cant muster it. But be nice to see a pro hit cheap clubs..people think if they buy better expensive clubs it will make them play better.

Great video as always Danny 🙂 I think you hit part of my issue with my shoulders. I can hook draw or slice with the next shot. My issue is with how much power I hit the ball with. I can control it pretty well if I dont swing hard but when I do swing harder and think I have it right it goes out of control again. I do believe your correct with my positioning and setup. I am playing at1pm today we shall see. 😄

@@DanielMaude This did help! I am starting to get it dialed back in 😁

[@robsengahay5614]

I have exactly this problem. Always hit a slice and never a draw. I have had so many lessons from different pros, watched a ton of content too. Yet for me it is totally mental. I start the backswing, the arms take over and I swing over the top. Sometimes I pull a straight shot way to the left but mostly I slice to the right. We have a lot of enclosed tee boxes framed with trees so I cannot start the ball far enough left for my slice so I don’t hit very many fairways in a round.
I doubt even Danny could fix me because I cannot overcome the need to swing with my arms sadly.

[@scotthughes29]

Danny, excellent video as always. I do have one question for you that no one seems to touch on, which during the setup…what is the proper distance to stand away from the ball? I know when I’m on the course, if I hit a slice or a hook (yes, both happen), I sometimes feel I’m either too close, or I’m reaching for the ball. I believe this can also lend itself to poor ball strikes. Can you mention something about that? It would be good to hear your perspective. I tend to say to myself ‘stay within yourself’ and it reminds me to keep tempo as well as not reaching or crowd the ball. Anyway, thanks again, your lessons really help all of us out here on our own!

Thanks Danny. Great as usual. Quite how I keep 365 swing thoughts in my mind on the tee is my problem. Keeping the shoulders straight is what I'll concentrate on as is seems the more forward the ball the more I turn my shoulders left and slice, especially woods. Please keep the advice coming.

[@xTheRadioStar]

I think I also struggle with an overactive trail shoulder. But when you gave the uppercut example it made perfect sense. I just imitated it and felt an 'aha' moment, that this was a component of my swing that I was not executing correctly. I hope I can get 20 more yards too!

[@tristanmcmahon7668]

Danny ! Help!
I understand this thought but I’m so confused on what to focus on in my swing!
Do you think of the hands or club head?

[@Seasunsangria]

In my case, I'm going to think of Danny as a 'Raider of the lost arc!' I used to naturally hit a draw which often turned into a big hook & spent years working on hitting across the ball. Unfortunately, I went completely the opposite way lost & can see from this simple but brilliant demonstration that my forearms are misaligned & my right shoulder is moving away from my body. The image of an uppercut really helps to understand what the correct position should be.
More than anything, it makes me understand that experimenting with where you hit the ball on the arc is so important in developing your skills.

[@DanielMaude]

😂 thanks David 👍

[@Fancyweasel621]

I was hitting some draws yesterday. Kept the face square as well. Made me ecstatic since that just really doesn't happen for me. It's helping me keep the ball a good bit lower too. If you saw me hit a 4 iron you may think I was actually just hitting like a long 50degree... It's actually a pretty cool sight to behold. Helps getting over trees(; Though I am trying to get that low shot into my game. If it's windy out I'm in trouble.

Hi Danny. Watched this and the penny dropped. Played 9 holes and hit the fairway 8 of those 9 and knew why I missed one. Didn’t score great cos was so excited my driver started to finally work. Great tutorial.

😂 thanks Bede 👍

[@bedeashby6323]

@@DanielMaude then today shot a personal best as 15 drives landed beautifully on the fairway. Even beat my buddy who has a 12 point lower handicap! Thanks so much for your instruction.

Hi Danny. I really enjoy your videos. I have a golf colleague who have been to you for a lesson. What are your thoughts on Martin chucks simple swing sequence ? Your thoughts.

Thanks!

Hi Danny, I'm from Indonesia. I'm still slash while tee off. Thanks for video!

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Rulfie 😁

[@pachelseafc]

Certainly try this Danny, I definitely think my ball position has snuck forwards a bit. I'll have a play on the range before taking it to the course, saves me losing even more balls 😂👍

[@DanielMaude]

😂 thanks Peter 👍

[@onestepbeyond9120]

Hi Danny it’s not Paul your talking about…it’s me…now going to the range 👍

[@DanielMaude]

😉👌

That will explain why I was hitting 50 yard slices last week. Lol I should have known it was my timing and ball position. I'm gonna try this today and work on timing as well as tempo and ball position with driver.

[@DanielMaude]

Hope it helps you Michael 👍

Interesting video: in my opinion the driver swing is as different from iron swings as is the putting stroke, and for us amateurs too many teaching videos fail to impart the proper method for driver success

[@DanielMaude]

Absolutely, they are completely different

[@Mizza62]

Great video, Danny! I really struggle with face control, specifically with driver. I try to control the face primarily with the top hand (righty - so left hand) but still have an open face at impact no matter how much I bow the wrist. What do you consider your primary “steering wheel” for the face? Top hand, bottom hand, forearm, combination? Thanks!

[@DanielMaude]

Mostly forearms

@@DanielMaude I just practiced this in my backyard and FINALLY started to draw the ball instead of a slice for over 70% of my practice shots (others went straight or slight hook). Literally have spent all summer trying to fix this and this video just made sense. A simply change of moving the ball position worked wonders for me. Can’t thank you enough.
