Clay - I grew up working with one of the top golf instructors in the world… (who worked with Tiger after Butch). I am a 2 handicap that has dealt with a ton of inconsistency due to spine angle. Nothing really helped until I watched this video. Finally, I am not trying to force my body to do something… it happens naturally based on your tips shown here. Just looked at my swing on video and was shocked. Hundreds of thousands of golf balls 30 years of playing changed by one video. Thank you. Seriously.
as a beginner, i always feel like, im just a few youtube videos away from reaching a pga pro level of golf :D
Golfer used to play 120 score now down my lowest score to 85 and lower if I can’t how many years I’ve played all together probably only 2 years witch in 5 year span of total 4 years on off as teenager and 2 years as my 20s playing more and practicing
I seen big differences in my game
Fundamental videos and all my favorite tour player bobby jones Tiger Woods Ernie Els Fred couples guys you have great swings fundamentals
@@gypsygypsy7185 I’m making heavy progress every week on the driving range. With all the CZcams videos I always feel like I know what. Need to work at next, focus on it go home, study something else.
It’s the right time to be a fan of this sport because 10 years ago this broad range of coverage was simply not available.
Started in March, I want to see if I can play my first 9 or 18 holes in June or July
That's how golf hooks you in... 👍 good luck on your progress. As for me too much CZcams and conflicting theories didn't work that well
You will feel like that for years
@@danmardavdyl there are some conflicting theories but generally what happens is not so much conflicting theories as a combination of click bait titles like “do this move to flush every shot” that may work for certain swings or flaws but other swings or flaws may need totally opposite feels/moves to accomplish the same thing or to get into the same positions. Also many people don’t understand everything in the swing needs to match up, if you’re griping it a certain way(strong, neutral, weak,etc) a bowed wrist is going to square your face but gripping it another way the lead wrist needs to be cupped (extension) for example but also the amount of body rotation effects that squareness as well, Dustin Johnson is great example of that. The match up is a big issue for many because many quick tips assume everything else in neutral. Especially with quick tip videos there’s no way to completely explain everything & all factors. Swing dynamics & the new laws of ball flight are generally agreed upon universally in golf instruction, there’s just a huge plethora of different ways & feels to get there as well as a plethora of different swing issue that require different feels/moves to get to the same place. From p1 (set up) - p10 (finish) there are generally agreed upon square positions for them all and biomechanics has shown use the most efficient means to swing a club to create maximum speed with minimal effort & wear on the body.
This video, literally, has changed my golfing life. I'm a 15 handicap and I've been stuck there for about a year now. For the past 8-9 months I've had great iron striking, but consistently pulled the ball 7-15 degrees long and left. Then, about 2 1/2 months ago I started shanking for the first time in my life. Nothing I tried yielded good results and the shanks seemed to be getting worse. Even on days when I wasn't shanking I was still hitting the ball well into the heel area and pulling everything.
This morning I watched this video before heading out to golf. During warm-ups at the range I tilted my spine as Clay suggests in this video. I didn't change anything else in my swing. I employed the change on all of my full swing shots, both irons and woods and driver. Initially, I hit a few balls very fat but after about a 1/2 dozen of those I made the adjustment and immediately the pulls and shanks (and duck hooks with the driver) disappeared and I was hitting the ball with more distance and accuracy and I shot 3 strokes below my handicap.
Of course, time will tell - but after watching 10's of videos and trying everything to get rid of the pull and the shanks, this lesson fixed everything in 5 minutes of practice. Try it - it works!
What did time tell, are you still working on this and did you lower your handicap?
@@shaynebernard My handicap is now 11. I stuck with it and I also got re-fitted (since I lost some weight). The two combined have all but completely eliminated the pull/hook, and I've added 15 yards to my now straight iron shots.
Clay you are just so dang good at explaining this stuff. Please dont stop spreading this information.
Clay, you should put this video behind a pay wall! LOL Incredibly enlightening and well-explained!
😂thanks!
Finally, a swing thought that keeps me down through to impact! As a 6' 2", 60 year old golfer, I have always had trouble staying down through the shot. I tend to hit the ball very clean with barely any divot taken. While this is good for driver and fairway woods, it often results in slightly thin iron strikes, with the occasional bladed shot in the mix, and my carry distance just wasn't what it should be.
The feet at 45 degrees drill was good, but the right ear to the ball swing thought was absolute gold. Took that to the range for a couple of days and just worked on low - mid irons, keeping that ear down. End result - very solid contacts with nice ball flight, an improvement in shot accuracy, and a swing plane that took a small divot beyond the impact point with the ball. Can't wait to get this going on the course!
Thank you for this video - it has made the world of difference to my golf!
Clay, I would like to say thank you for a simple core explanation of the reason for the standing.
Glad it was helpful!
This video was a miracle for me. I went out and tried it and not only am I hitting it solid easily, but I'm coming from the inside too. Thank you so much clay, maybe your best tip ever. The best tip ever possibly
I have watched hundreds of videos in an effort to find the slot. This video singlehandedly changed my swing. The way that Clay explains each step is so straightforward and easy to understand. After 20 years of a steep outside in swing, I am finally able to swing from the inside out. I am a "Top Speed Junkie" now! Thanks so much!
Awesome! Hope to see you over in the Top Speed Golf All Access membership area 😀
Best golf teacher on youtube! This video changed my game.
Thanks Will!
I'm a 3rd year golfer. Priorly a lifelong baseball player. My first year of golf involved a lot of slicing and with some instruction that turned into a lot of pulls and hooks. My second year was defined by the shank and I haven't found ANY consistent striking since. Ruined golf. Working with a college golf coach that embodies a number of principles: letting the arms fall, "stretching the club", allowing the club to pull me through impact, using the natural physics of the club etc etc. What is killing my swing is hands pulling the shaft (grip) to start the swing and compensatory stand up through impact. I've struggled greatly with hip depth drills (early ext. chair - drills) and letting my arms fall. Lately I've been focusing on keeping my trail elbow bent in front to the torso through impact (preventing abduction of humerus and keeping it in front of rotating torso), externally rotating humerus and wrist extension cues in the back swing has produced partially better downswing results but inevitably my hands pull out and I lose that bet externally rotated arm at impact and I can't fix this for the life of me. Any insight anyone might have and if side bend may be a missing piece.
Thank you Clay. This video was incredibly helpful. I’ve seen your channel grow over the years and happy for your success.
You are very welcome!
Now this is excellent! I’m the king of early extension. Hardest habit I’ve ever had to break. It always seems to come back. Makes me nuts. Thanks for the video
Dang Clay and the Top Speed Team! Just when I think you possibly can’t put out new content or learn something new….you put out this video. Huge 💡 turned on for me. THANKS!!
Very, very helpful. Thanks for the great content.
Thanks for the all fantastic videos!!!!
Hey Clay,
The swing thought of keeping your right ear over the ball has been the best posture tip I've heard to date. Really clicked with me! Thanks for all the great content from you and your team.
Wow! Awesome stuff! Thanks.
Wonderful explanation of what to feel, most important for my game
Fantastic Clay!
Never came across the first drill before. Definitely going to try it. Great video again.
Well explained. When you “skip the stone” it’s the same feel, lean to the right. Great drill that you can do with plastic balls in the back yard.
Wow this was a brilliant video. I'm a scratch golfer but I keep standing up and early extending. I always hit the ball pretty straight but not very far so I've been working hard to fix it but nothing has worked. This helped a lot. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Wow. This is the first time I have done a drill a couple of times and then a practice swing and it completely cured my early extension and got super crispy contact. I have been doing drills with my butt against a chair and a wedge under my trail foot but they didn't work...because I was still not getting side bend! I'm going to need about 10,000 reps to get used to the feeling and work it into my swing but today was the first time in my life I have struck a golf ball properly. Wow, thank you!
Enjoying your tips. It doesn't hurt that you personally have a sweet, powerful, but in control swing.
Great description
Clay - thanks so much for this great video. Incredibly easy to follow and so helpful!!
With your 7i you noted the ball position at your near-foot pinky toe and far-foot instep. What would be your suggestion for ball position markers with driver? Thanks again!!
Just played 18 and it was very discouraging. I walk up to the ball telling myself not to stand up in the down swing but my body can’t help it. Can’t wait to try this drill. Thanks!
You can do it!
Man… this guy is Great!
What a nice video
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Wow Clay! This is exactly my problem. No right side bending. I watched this video several times. This morning I went to the range and did the drills you demonstrated here. I can’t tell you how happy I was with the results. I can’t wait to play on Sunday and see how I do. Thanks for your wonderful instruction!!!
Glad it helped! Hope you have a great round Sunday.
Hello Clay, Thanks to your videos, I was able devellop a quite solid golf swing. But every time I try to add lag to my swing it increases the risk of hitting terrible shanks. Any idea where this could come from?? Thanks Peter
I like your videos, and in particular this one. It looks nice and easy, but being very stiff, it is very difficult to put in practice. Would be nice to see your recommendations for people who are not athletic as you are. Thanks
I am a beginner and chose to follow your instructions from Abc. Do you have lessons for the beginners please.
After your drill 2, when I down swing ,feeling right hand getting more active,is that right?
Are you using this same “elbow to the waist” feeling during chip/pitch shots as well?
Good video, but I'm not sure if this is right for me. I am still losing my tush line. Also, in this video, when you hit the balls, you came off the tush line as well. Just a bit, but enough for me to question this method. Thanks again.
Big time standing up through impact, so definitely trying to implement this fix. However, feeling lower back pain when I practice the drills, any idea on the cause? It doesn't look like reverse spine angle, posture at address?
The way I cured that mistake sounds crazy but move the ball up in your stance forces you to swing thru the shot and impact position u can also think about hitting the imaginary ball in front of your real balls either way can work don't force the shot and swing smooth and easy until you get the feel for the correct swing thru
Hello when i do practice swings i can hit the ground easily and it feels smooth and I maintain posture, but when I go to hit a ball I feel all tense and usually end up doing a bad shot and stand up when hitting the ball, pls help
Very good easy instruction to follow,it's a shame the screen writing covers feet position that is being shown.
It's like they knew what I'm struggling with and dropped a video about it
Where can I see the knuckle dragger video? I saw it mentioned multiple times
You need to buy one of the TopSpeed Golf training packages. The price is worth all the training you get.
Please, if you find the time, explain why shallowing the swing is so vital. I'm sure it's not new, but it just seems in the last year or so, that it's the big thing everyone is talking about. Also, why not just have a more shallow backswing that puts you in the position directly? It seems to me that it would be one fewer step to do that rather than a relatively steep back swing, then the shallowing, then the swing. I'm not arguing....I'm just trying to understand. Thanks!
If you do this drill, after a few repetitions, you won't need to worry about shallowing the clubface; it will happen automatically as a result of the body movements this drill produces. Lean right, elbow in, down from the inside: the result, the Lean Machine.
Clay has really done wonders for my game with his great insight. Unfortunately not this time. This even conflicts with an earlier video of his to keep right shoulder moving forward, This just made me hit early and behind ball instead of in front. I think my standing up caused by not shallowing club enough.
Side bend, got it!
Until you’re a senior and nothing bends
Can this work with me? : I cannot transfer any weight to my left side
dude hits further and more pure than me from drills lmao
Where are you?can I study from you in person?
My swing is so beautiful, if I could just consistently stop standing up out of my posture, I would drastically lower my score
Right hip bend is Easy for the young athletic player! Very painful for senior players. 😞
This drill works great if I wouldn't shank half my shots.
199 with a 7 iron- I wish
Use the STACK N TILT swing and get out on the course shooting in the high 70's low 80's every round
Not easy at all ...
Just chunked like mad 🤪at the range with buddies this morning. After 20 balls i decided to stop and watch the vid on my own.
Let hope i would get more out if it. 😎
This is what I would expect from most people actually. I find this a puzzling idea to teach. Side bend comes gradually as a result of forward bend plus rotation, and it comes in the part of the swing that lasts a tiny fraction of a second. It seems very dubious to try to focus on side bend and expect to get the sequencing/timing consistently right, not to mention the proper amount of bend. In fact, a common mistake is for people to side bend too early because it's a somewhat intuitive, but ultimately poor, way to get shallow (very much looking like the left pic in the thunbnail). It tends to be very inconsistent with low point and often hitting behind the ball. Of course, people interpret info differently, so maybe this will work for some. I would bet they'd be the exception though. Just my 2 cents in case it may help anyone. Whatever works, enjoy the game.
@@GP-qz6kk I like your explanation and I might add - side bend without hip and shoulder rotation will be a disaster. When the right side bends the left shoulder must rotate up and back away from the target to get the full effect of the move. Your left arm will straighten and you won't chunk the ball.
Knows a lot about the golf swing but has a hard time explaining it to weekend golfer. I need a couple of points to focus on. After I watch his videos my head is spinning
Yeah, I can see this swing thought creating a whole bunch of fat shots.
