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!

2. How to swing more in to out or how to swing more inside out
3, How to get the correct impact position with driver
and I hope to do all this with simple golf tips so you can create an effortless golf swing
Hope you enjoy - Sport
OMG This grip method is the greatest piece of advice I have ever seen. I watched it on Wednesday and took it to the course on Thursday and knocked 10 shots off the round. When you use the technique described the grip created feels so natural and hence the grip stays right and the balls sails down the course. Thank you so much
Hi Danny, since 6 years, I watch them all: Andy & Piers, Crossfield, Shiels, Finch, Ryan, Hendriksen, Fryer... Since 2015 I've seen hundrets or even more golf videos from these great guys. But I must say, your explanations, your videos still open my eyes, again and again. Thank you so much for your superb videos! Best regards from Germany!
Thanks so much for the support Sascha
Agree!!!
I agree (and also have watched/subscribed to Andy & Piers, etc.). Danny does a superb job explaining and demonstrating golf concept/techniques.
Agreed!!
He explains things so well and is the best I’ve found.
Hi Danny. As it happens, I was looking at one of your earlier videos about the grip a couple of weeks ago, and followed your advice. It has made a huge difference, not only to ball direction, but to the actual strike too. Thanks again.
Danny that was one of the best explanations of managing your golf grip. It was really helpful in describing how you get the club into your fingers and especially the grip pressure that is unique to each player and how you control your driver. Thank you, I will take this to the practice range and hopefully to the course!
Hands down, definitely the best video I have ever watched on the grip. Thanks for sharing this info.
Danny thank you for providing us the tools, tips, and suggestions to continue to improve our game. You put out extremely well produced video clips and your hard work and thorough yet simplified instruction is greatly appreciated. For love of the game - cheers!
Thanks so much for the support. Really appreciate it
This is for real! Coming back to this video a month after seeing it to say this 100% changed my consistency issues and I now make solid contact 95% of the time where I was at 60-70% before. Thank you man! Keep up the good work I tell everyone about your channel. For anyone who has really good hand eye and is maybe converting from baseball to golf and you think you're doing everything right but are struggling with consistency try this! 💯
Awesome video! The visual demonstration is incredible and so simple to practice. Can't wait to hit the range and give this a try! Thank you.
Best grip video I’ve had the privilege of watching. Danny, you have a fantastic method in providing instruction that makes sense to the average joe. Please keep the videos coming!
Thanks so much for the support Michael
Danny Maude, makes complicated issues into a simple way to understand. great way of communication. Enjoyed.
Thanks for the feedback
Great video as always.
I've played for many years and whilst most of what you cover is not new to me, the superb manner in which you describe everything is extremely helpful to both mature and new golfers.
I regularly enjoy your golf videos but this is the first that I had to comment on.
Thanks again
Really appreciate you taking the time to comment, means a lot
Danny ,absolutely on the button, my pal changed my grip to what you have just said. Instead of losing 20 yards to a slice I've gained 20 yards in distance 👍😁
Best basic , instruction on grip based on body mechanics and influence on your strike!! The right grip pressure depending on club speed as well as the position of right elbow are two gems from this video..Thank you, !!.
best grip video I've seen in a long time. looking forward to trying it.
Danny being informative and very clear and encouraging as per usual. After COVID blooming restrictions I’m straight back to the drawing board again … so I’m back to your beginner and basic instructions on grip, stance, shoulders etc etc so thank you once again Danny. I’m looking forward to cooler weather here in South Africa and getting back out there with my 9 hole ladies group again ⛳️
It’s funny, here in the UK we are looking forward to warmer weather
Wow... That little detail changed everything instantly. I feel so much more confortable and it remove the doubt in my mind when I wonder if my grip is correct. Thank you for all those great videos you make.
This tip changed my golfing story. Today every drive went straight, so did all my fairway shots, my friends were amazed, I am so happy. My drives used to go straight then veer left once they hit the ground - no more! I am a left handed high handicap older golfer, I now look forward to playing instead of dreading my drives.
Great lesson as always. I have been working on the grip specifically in the past week. Much of what you covered here is what I am working on. Can definitely say the strikes are more consistent and the ball is going farther with what seems much less "effort feel". The great thing, is once this is nailed down, the swing is effortless in "feel".
That’s wonderful to hear Willie
I have been following and watching your videos for some time now. These are outstanding instructional aids. And I recently found this video.
When I first started golfing, a little over 20 years ago, I would link the pinky of my trail (lower) hand with the index finger of my lead (higher) hand. And I have done so since then. I did not play a lot of golf - and some summers I would not play at all. This year, I have started to play golf more regularly with the intent to improve my game so that I can enjoy it as I get older (and I came to the sport in my early 30s). Recently, I started experiencing some pain with the pinky of my trail hand, so I have stopped interlocking my pinky and index finger. The change has not appeared to adversely affect my drives, but time will tell.
Danny - THANK YOU! This video helped me so much! Just after watching I played and incorporated 3 of the tips in the video and it has corrected my over-grip and greatly straightened my hits! Game changer!! cheers! BC.
thanks Danny, tried this on course today took bit to get used too but def helped, I was thinking way too much about my grip and where it should be in my palms, thanks for the no bs , down to earth advice, have a great weekend
Excellent tip! Especially the change with the trail arm did help me instantly with accuracy and distance. Thanks for your videos, best wishes from Hamburg!
Hi Danny, I changed my grip over a year ago out of frustration of hooking left. I went from interlock grip to all fingers on the club. The difference was instant. I counted each shot to make sure it wasn't a fluke. Still using the same grip. Thanks again for the content and your time to provide great video information. Cheers
You are very welcome Matt
Cheers Danny. Had some sporadic drives yesterday mixing between huge slice to heavy hooks. Will definitely give this a go seems so easy and logical. Think I’m guilty of constantly overthinking it. Thanks for making golf look so easy. Just wish it was 😂
Tremendous coach!!! Excellent explanation!!! Danny, thank you so much!
Simple instruction and easy to understand. Excellent instructional videos, thank you.
Top man Danny you explain everything in simplistic terms. I watch all your videos. I think the grip is key to everything. Love when you have your dad with you, probably because we are of a similar age. You consistently help all golfers. Keep it going. Thank you.
Thank you 😁
How good and simple instructions, well done Danny.
Tried this on the course today... It made an incredible difference...I realised I was tucking my lead hand under too much, every drive and most fairway woods and approach shots on line, no slice. Thanks so much Danny, a huge impact on my game today.
"Hookers tend to be on top". 2:25. Interesting. 🤔
Amazing how we can overlook the basic building blocks sometimes. Thanks for the brilliant video!
You are very welcome Bill
Thank you so much Danny, you are the man who is my first golf coach I think. Your explanation is simple and clear, how beautiful it is!
Such a key video and an area that other teachers neglect a lot I think. So many of my issues restarting the game after many years off were due to grip. Thanks v much Danny.
It's something I forget to look at myself sometimes
You have a great way of relating your thoughts. Keep it up!!
Thanks Danny, duck hooking a lot of drives lately. It may be due to my lower right hand grip. By making the changes you suggested my strike generated more power. I will try this tip on the range and course this morning.
Thanks for this Saturday follow up to my grip question earlier this week👍🏻🤗
I agree danny. Love the way you break it down so simply ! Very helpful video. Thanks so much
You are very welcome Jon
You rock Danny! As someone new to the game and figuratively slashing my way through the jungle of how to hit a golf ball, you are like an expert guide to show the way. I'm making great progress thanks to your videos and I watch them over and over. You are a godsend as I feel that I'm on the right track. Thanks!!!
Really kind of feedback James 🙏
Danny your videos have helped this 61 year old to be able to hit it long and accurate. Thank you.
Danny, mate what a legend. Focused on this today at the range literally eradicated my slice and could shape shots left and right on demand, just based on the grip! I always thought it was my swing that was off, turns out was just the grip! Keep up the simple not over complicated tips! Loving your content!
That’s awesome to hear, well
Done
Hi Danny, last week I was at the driving range, in the bay next to me were two guys trying very had to hit the ball in the air, speaking to them they had just stated golf, I recommended they look on CZcams for your videos, as you have taught me so much
Hope this helps me when gets to course, thanks, Danny!
I really appreciated this fundamental discussion of grip. I’m in the midst of changing my swing path and never thought to build those changes up from a sound grip.
Hope they help Gerald
@@DanielMaude could
Great tuition/explanation in creating a key to open/improve ones game! Thanks Danny -AGAIN!
You are very welcome
Brilliant! I tried technique to force my body into golf, your simple explanations pull me back into balancing technique and feel.
Happy to help
Tiger said the hands are most important because they are how you interface with the club. Grip changes are the quickest fix to any swing imo, great lesson. I suffer from getting too strong of a grip sometimes so I am always having to check this, I finally learned to just build it into my pre-shot routine so i don't have to worry about it. In terms of pressure, my instructor told me to grip with intension, basically what you are saying, and also to imagine you were wringing the water out of a towel with your fingers. For the drive the towel is soaked and for the wedges it is just barely wet. This really has helped me. Now I just have to worry about path issues :)
Danny - I turned my brother onto your videos and he's hooked! He's 59 and has lost a lot of power in the past few years - and his short game collapsed. After a couple of months of watching your vids he's game is noticeably improved - and he's having way more fun. Thanks!
So good to hear, pass on my congratulations
Great video. Always forgetting to check grip....so many things to remember in golf swing!!!
Thanks Danny. Just getting back into the game after a 12 yr layoff. Was struggling until i watched this video. Small change, big result. Hitting my driver more consistent and striking my irons a lot better. Thanks again.
That’s wonderful Franklin…well done
Great tip! Falling into the fingers makes sense. Thanks💗
Danny - Thank you for this video! Your tips single handedly transformed my driver swing! I really appreciate your content and thankful for your longer format videos.
Thank you Petra 😁
wow, this is so good
probably exactly what I need. I cant wait to try it.
Spot on. Two weeks ago, I suddenly couldn't get a good ball strike or get off the tee. I ran into my instructor one day on the range and after watching one swing, his quick observation was that my left hand was weakening causing the club face to open at the top. Simple grip change and I shot my best round of the year that day. Keep on...love your lessons!
Great tips! I haven't played much golf in the last 10 years, but now that I'm getting back into it, I have found myself making these very mistakes and having a terrible slice. A friend gave me similar pointers and adjustments and it made a huge difference, especially after fixing my elbow position as you also showed. I was also bad at getting the club face square to the ball. I tend to rest the club on the ground while getting my grip and that natural sitting state of the club puts the face in the open position. My buddy is the only person who has ever pointed that out to me. When he would "square" me up, it would look more closed to me, but that's the way it suppose to be apparently.
Absolutely 👍
You are a very good teacher, i love to see your instructions
Danny, thank you for this wonderful video. I've never played as much as I want, but have committed to playing more this year, as my grandson(s) are of the the age now where they like to play more. As to the video, I've ALWAYS struggled with my grip, which obviously leads to a lot of BAD golf shots, Army golf(left-right as I go down the fairway, lol), and much frustration. And, as I've advanced in age, especially the last year or so, my hands have grown weaker, and I find myself 'losing the club' during my swing, and rolling the clubhead. This single video has made a huge improvement in my grip, and while my scores have only improved marginally(I need to play more), my confidence level with the club in my hand has been affected tremendously. That leads to a lot less frustration, and, thus, much more enjoyment when I do play. Your explanations have elevated my understanding of golf instructions to a much higher level. Thank you so very much. Looking forward to viewing many of your videos.
Great video Danny. Most of what I’m doing at the moment is focussed on my grip. It’s definitely helping. I’m concentrating on my 3 wood off the tee. I seem to be able to hit it as far as my driver (is this common), but with more control.
Absolutely Jeff, it's often because its easier to hit being shorter and the loft on the club can help with the carry
Danny, This little change has unbelievable positive impact on my consistency. Thanks Miro
Pleasure Miro, all the best
Thank you. Excited to try it.
I started playing golf in 1974 (not quite 30), not so long after that I read Ben Hogan's book "The Modern Fundamentals of Golf". The first chapter is "The Grip", I have used this method since then. I use the Vardon way to join the hands. I tried the interlock for a while because I read somewhere that "The Golden Bear" used that and decided it wasn't for me.
Another CZcams instructor talks about 'Powerless Arms" and 'Free hinging wrists" .
In the current group of CZcams instructors, I have Danny Maude as my preferred choice. I send your advice to a few of my fellows who (like me) are struggling with the loss of distance or accuracy.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for taking the time to feedback Ben
Awesome video. I have been working on this Danny.
Each time. I am striking the ball more solid on my long irons and woods.
That’s great William, all the best
Grip is so important to hitting straight shots. Your video is excellent information, and it works. I am hitting more fairways, and feeling like I can better control the accuracy of my drives. Golf is fun again. Thank you, Danny!
Pleasure Brian, all the best
Thanks Danny needed this great lesson
Superb Danny as ever I need this advice in my game 👍⛳️
Thanks Danny I now have a setup routine I will share this your the best!!! Rick
Excellent explanation, very easy, straight forward to understand and most importantly easy put into practice.
Thanks Danny
Pleasure Scott, all the best
Yeah another great video,such in-depth to how easy the golf grip should be but we make it harder on ourselves thank you Danny
you are Very welcome
As a senior golfer, you inspire me to hit better each day. Your refresher tips are always amazing.
Appreciate your comment Ben thank you 👍
Thanks Danny! Hit about 180 balls at the range today,. My practice was going so well I didn’t want stop, despite it being 96 and feeling like 106 here in Chicago. Excellent instruction ✌🏻
So awesome to hear
Always great explanations! Many vids out there, but you always make it plain. Thanks again!!!
Pleasure Corey
Swung so much better yesterday after watching this tutorial Danny. Thank you so much. I was a slicer before but now got more direction
Brilliant well done
Been watching a lot of your videos, I really like your style and how everything relates. Thanks again for the tips.
You are very welcome Patrick
I am golfer with small hands..😢😢 I currently use a quasi overlapping grip. I might tinker with grip on my next range session. I am thinking of going back to a ten finger grip. I feel like a senior golfer even though I am not. Hopefully this change will give me a little more pop!! Thank you Danny for the amazing content you provide. Your easy to follow instructions are always appreciated.
I recently tidied up my grip on the lines you have recommended and agree that it has made a big difference to my accuracy. However I still need some distance so will try the other tips you have suggested. It’s a never ending journey!
Always working hard to improve 🤜🏻🤛🏼
Wow , Danny great video once again mate! I found that was my problem when I held the club I was too weak in my left hand !! Your process on how to hold the club will help me get consistency!
Really hope so Paddy let me know how you get on
hi danny. i know you read these and just wanted to say that despite having taken a few years you have become quite telegenic and polished and i think you've sorta reached the next level with your videos. i can feel the poise coming through my laptop here. good work man keep it up.
That’s really kind Michael always trying to learn from feedback
Thanks Danny for this tip, I changed my grip to what you suggested and found I was hitting it Straight from the first drive where I was aiming and my distance was a little better, on the 9th hole Par5 I dropped my first Eagle from 135yds up hill 9 iron, at my local course that day due to the change in where I held the club in my hand. Thanks! I look forward to trying out other lesson tips.
That’s amazing Christopher thanks for taking the time to share
Great drill and instructions!
Thanks Danny, your video is super great and really helpful !!
That’s great Ahmad
I really enjoy the simplistic way you explain things when doing your tips vids. Looking forward to trying the "grip tip" cheers 👍
Have fun John
Hi Danny,
Thanks to that bloody virus, I have had time to sit down and read and try some of the principles advocated in Ben Hogan's Five Lessons. An interesting point BH made was with regards to the right thumb and index finger being 'swing killers' if they grip the club too tightly.
Over the last three days or so, I've been getting used to the grip preferred by BH and I have to say, it is beginning to feel more natural and a lot less effort than my previous grip.
From what I could see, Your approach to establishing the grip on the club seems to establish this exact same principle but in a 'squarer' way, that is resting the club on the ground and using gravity to sort out the club position in ones hands. Having tried your tip, the end position of my hands on the club was virtually identical to what I was 'feeling' following BH book. Your tip does remove the tendency for any unnatural 'wrist-twists' though.
Can't wait to try this out on a course....once my COVID isolation has passed.
Keep up the good work
Tom J
Never thought to check my trail arm elbow position...it was a great result. Love your tips. Thanks Danny
Pleasure Cloyd, happy to help
Wow Danny! This might be the most valuable online lesson I've ever had! #3 is absolutely brilliant. Everyone should re-watch 6:55 - 7:10 again!
To compensate for my tendency to snatch the club inside, I got into a bad habit of push my hands out at the start. Big problem! It internally rotates the trail shoulder and leads to serious shoulder pain when you swing hard down to the ball from that position on top.
This grip tip helped me to achieve proper takeaway while allowing for a small external rotation of the trail shoulder.
Bingo! Shallower downswing path, arms in front of the body, and a much better position in the hitting zone. All with a pain free swing!
Thank you!
Thanks Prem appreciate you taking the time to give feedback and happy the video has helped you 👍
took a 10 year hiatus (kids and life do that lol), and completely lost the feeling, not to mention 'feeling lost' when it came to the mechanics. started watching your vids for a couple of months and must say the ones on grip have made a huge difference (for the better, meaning I am almost ready to break 90 and get back to the feeling I had playing in low 80's before I 'left'!). many thanks Danny!
You are very welcome Steve
I watch this video every night really enjoy it, it has helped me a lot so far. Thank you so much
Pleasure Bob, all the best
Thanks Danny, really useful to have a focus on a basic fundamental.
Pleasure Rob, all the best
Thanks Danny! Your videos are amazing. You break the swing down into simple steps. With the better grip I now have and the back pocket move I have already after 1 day seen improvement. I can’t wait to work on these drills more. I hit some monster straight drives. The grip change was simple and had great results!
Thanks again!
Happy to help and thanks for taking the time to comment 👍 appreciate the support!
Thanks Danny really enjoyed the simple but effective way to grip the club.
Happy to hear that Chris !
fantastic suggestion to improve the grip, I have been struggling with it for 40 years but no one had ever shown me so well how to position my hands, with this little trick of bending down when holding the iron and then lying down by having the grip readjusted on the fingers .... thanks a lot and I hope it can finally serve me!🔝🔝⛳️
Thank you, I've found this the simplest way to find our own unique grip
@@DanielMaude I
I've had an issue where putting the right hand on the club threw my shoulders out alignment. Watched this video last night and tried the tips out this morning. Really made a difference to the accuracy of my shots - very few of the normal pulls or slices. Thanks for another great vid!
That’s brilliant Mike, thanks for sharing
Brilliantly simple explanation! Really resolved my questions regarding my grip!
Happy to help Skuffel!
Thank you so much Danny with this grip change I hit my first hole your grip input just makes sense and works once again thank you!!!!!!!!
You are very welcome
Thank you for your lessons Danny. I always follow your video and it is really improved my game.
That’s great Selamet, really happy to help
What a GREAT video...... Grip is ALL.... simple as... thank you.
Hope it helps thanks for the feedback
Again, Danny with the save. After fixing my iron shot, he’s now done it again and fixed my driver. Your tips and tricks have fixed my slice and have given my driver a more consistent shot. The biggest takeaway that helped my driver was the hand grip. By following the natural placements of specifically my right hand, I’m able to keep the pendulum swing and keep my left and right arms connected to my body as I swing. For both hands, I aim to keep them aiming inwards and being able to see two knuckles on both hands. By doing this, it naturally keeps my arms arms in position. For my left arm, it’s keeping super straight without me having to force or be in an uncomfortable motion. You are the god of golf sent down here to help us mere mortals!
That’s awesome well done 👍
Came by this instructional video quite by accident. I had just looked up how not to top a three wood stumbled on and watched this video. I can not believe how this transformed my entire iron line up! Four holes in a poor drive and thinking well i will get this around the green somewhere. Ten consecutive pars later I still cant believe it. This set up reallly encourages you to grip and relax, which really lead to a to some of the best ballstriking throughout my line up (4-G). I was amazed at how well the long irons preformed after setting up and gripping per this instruction. I kept waiting for the wheels to fall off and they really never did. The approach and set up seemed to easy to be true, but it seems to work well for me. Thanks So Much!!!!
That’s wonderful Rudy, well done. So good to hear
Love it. I’m going to give it a go. Thanks mate!!!
Pleasure, all the best Jeffrey
Enjoyed the review very much, sometimes we forget to go back to basics. Also i'm thankful to let go of the grip pressure thought with the big stick, I think this will help immensely. Cheers Danny, thanks again.
Hope it does William thanks for the support 👍
Another great lesson Danny. The tip of adjusting the grip strength depending on the club speed needed should really help me. I find myself gorilla gripping all my clubs too much a lot if times which leads to slicing. Can't wait to try it at the range!
Have fun Keith
Just tried this on the range. Amazing how just letting my arms hang naturally as I grip the club made a massive difference. Strike the ball much better, and straighter. Thanks again for a cracking tip. 👍👍👍
That’s awesome to hear David, well done
Cheers Danny , you’ve improved my game so much mate .
Really happy to help
