    Instead of compressing my irons, can I just sell them before I break them over my knee?

    You have a real genius in pin pointing a specific point and nailing it. The series you were doing with beginner golfers was great. Would love to see more of that. If the girls are too busy dancing I would be a willing guinea pig.

    Yep, this is a great one. “Stuck, stuck, stuck” is how I feel so often at address. Thanks!!🔥

    You make golf look easy… and are the best communicator by far. I love all the content on your channel…always top quality entertainment and on point. ❤

    GRF Golf (Marcus Bell) uses this type of exercises quite a lot. You might enjoy having a chat with him and his philosophy. Please keep posting, it's such a joy, interesting and helpful

    I tried this drill today and it's really a miracle, although I didn't have time to get it right with the driver, but after couple of missed shots I've hit several perfect ones with 7 iron, and it felt so good, I guess that's what compression feels like - almost effortless swing and pure contact :) Thanks!

    What a great simple drill. Tried it today before round. Will keep trying this. Thanks.

    Another great video Iona, fantastic tip and a fun way to enjoy sometime on the driving range.

    Great drill! Thank you Iona!

  • @66stangRh
    @66stangRh Před 7 dny

    I cant wait to try this! I reflect upon my golf efforts when I'm not on the course and I always say I'm gonna stop trying to hit hard and just find the right rhythm and let the club do the work. I really have a hard time with the weight transfer and so often just swing with my arms. And then I just try to swing harder. And the more relaxed swing always yields a better outcome. I'm really looking forward to practicing with this drill so I can start to grasp the weight transfer! Thank you, Iona!

  • @buddyhassell6989

    Awesome drill that you bring us weekend amateurs and I appreciate what you do so much! ❤

  • @19DMS51
    @19DMS51 Před 14 dny +1

    That looks like great fun on driving range. Especially if it makes you feel the same on the course. “Light-footed” so to speak. Great lesson Iona, thank you!

  • @chrisdepoy3370
    @chrisdepoy3370 Před 13 dny

    I've been using that drill for about a year and it FEELS SO GOOD I've really thought about incorporating it during my round.

    Oh please do a video playing 9 or 18 like that. That would be a great watch!

  • @donnypezzolla4770
    @donnypezzolla4770 Před 12 dny

    This is freaky. I was just doing this drill this morning (waiting for my bathroom delivery) albeit in shadow format, thinking when I go down the range this evening to do just this as my strike/compression/launch has been poor. Especially yesterday when I nearly launched my clubs down the range!!
    Thanks Iona, keep the excellent coming!

  • @oliveradami199

    Thanks for this video. I found the one on breathing very useful and it has helped me get out of a blip in my performance. So will also give this drill a go too 👍

  • @markvpinkham

  • @alanking5001
    @alanking5001 Před 14 dny

    The timing of the step really highlighted the fault in my full swing I couldn't believe how early in your swing it should be it almost feels like the body gets in position early and you've got loads of time to swing the arms

  • @richardheathcote1014
    @richardheathcote1014 Před 11 dny +2

    You said you wish that you could play this way, but is there actually anything in the rules that prohibits this kind of movement in competition?

  • @neilsheridan9621

    @agoona1 Před 14 dny +1

    Shorter 'sharper' vid format are great - please do more.
    The 12mins+ vids from other golf content folks are (I assume) feeding the YT algorithm but are full of general chat and 'bloated content' you end up searching for the take-aways and they often get lost. Thanks

    Love Iona, I'm definitely going to try that. I do struggle with compression with my irons. I have seen Padraig do this .

  • @harrypsaunders
    @harrypsaunders Před 13 dny

    That's how I did it when I first started playing at around 14 years old. I couldn't hit it properly, at all, without taking a step up. I think it was because I played Shinty and that's how you hit the ball.

    Probably worth doing as pre shot routine (obvs without hitting the ball!)?

  • @christopherward2817
    @christopherward2817 Před 14 dny

    Just what I needed, took this to the range and worked a treat. Lets see how it doea on the course, sub 90 here I come.

    Have to give this a go. I followed your tips on bunker shots and it helped me a lot. So why not Happy Gilmore a few on the range…

  • @Advancesquash
    @Advancesquash Před 7 dny

    Great video. I suppose the question is, "Are there any rules in golf to say you are not allowed to hit a golf ball by stepping in like that (i.e. Lucky Gilmore)?"

  • @TheEugenelee13
    @TheEugenelee13 Před 14 dny

    Love the videos! And love this drill. Question though…does this drill make sense for woods and the driver?

    • @ontheroadwithiona
      @ontheroadwithiona  Před 14 dny

      Yeah a great question, when it comes to weight transfer and practicing the feel of ‘dynamic’ over ‘static’ I think absolutely yes :)

  • @chrisbullen7460
    @chrisbullen7460 Před 14 dny

    Having played a lot of cricket the step gets you working on a balanced hitting position and timing the shot rather than giving it wellie

    I saw another golfer incorporate a similar technique, I believe his name is happy gilmore. Won a pretty big tournament if i remember correctly.
    All kidding aside, thanks for the great practice drill

  • @davidballard9781
    @davidballard9781 Před 14 dny

    I don’t see any reason why you can’t incorporate it into to your shots I used to do this a lot but for some reason I don’t think about using it anymore.
    It certainly does work but like lots of things we don’t do when we should do,I’m going to have to put it back into my routine because it is so helpful

  • @Chris-lh6hw

    Is there a golf rule preventing you from starting your swing and stepping forward at the same time?

  • @jofenwick3724
    @jofenwick3724 Před 7 dny

    Tried this today and failed badly bar 1. I’m going to assume that is a measure of my problem shifting my weight so I’ll keep trying it. That said I hit my driver 30 yds (ave)further afterwards🎉

  • @lylemckeany
    @lylemckeany Před 9 dny

    Serious question: why wouldn't you consider playing like this on the course? As far as I know, it's not against the rules to do so
