Tip Link: • New Way To Swing A Gol... - Sport
Thanks Paul for your instruction. The key to all of this is that tension free approach you preach about in each of your segments. My teachable moment was your comments on hitting the ball with your hips and legs and not your arms. All of this makes total sense!!!!
Glad you see it. All I am trying to do is get people to think differently and try something new. That old hitting down and hard will never work. If it did everyone would be good. Few are so they are doing something different than the majority. Stay focused. You are on your way.
Hi Paul, I watch your instructions from Australia, your tips are very logical. Only watch yours now so I don't get confused with others. Thankyou 😊
Thanks so much for the support. I have a big following in Australia. Maybe one day I will get down there. Keep it simple and do daily practice swings.
Great instruction/ great coach ( Nova Scotia)
I tried this awhile back no luck.....I recently went back to this type of swing and it has changed everything! Thank you
Great refresher tip Paul!
Thank you..............
Glad you liked it. Just got to keep explaining it for people. This is a huge problem. Literally my 2 students yesterday both were thinking up and down. I got the husband hitting it 240-250 from maybe 200. Nice gain.
Thanks Paul...always great to see your vids. I can't agree with you more. Thanks to some of your other video's last year and your focus on the importance of the whole body's motion, I started thinking in terms of my little league skills. The body mechanics of both the throw and the swing reproduce some of the important golf swing mechanics almost exactly. For me, it was all about moving my lower body towards the hole before my arms started moving....exactly like throwing a ball or swinging a bat. People at the range thought I was nut practicing what looked like a baseball swing or throwing balls onto the range...until they saw my ball flight. I really believe that if more instructors describe the movements in the terms you use, many people will start feeling a body swing much sooner. As you implied, it was like an ah ah moment. In appreciation.
Glad you like them. Thanks for the support. You are totally in sync with what I am saying. With the ball in motion you would do this stuff without me saying on word about it. In golf the ball is stationary. Human nature is telling you to hit it and hit it hard. So you use your arms and hit not the body. What these people fail to realize is they learned as kids with minimal arm strength. If you learned as an adult from ball 1 you hit with arms due to human nature telling you to hit the object. Until you make the switch you will never get it. You would never do this in any other sport where the ball is in motion. Glad you see it and are getting it. Do daily practice swings.
You’re so on point! Thanks Pablo!!!
Glad you liked it. Thanks. Let me know how it works for you.
I have a PGA Diploma, and this is the 2nd video of yours I've watched. I love your tips and explanations. It's enjoyable to watch and to try them myself. Thank you.
Thanks so much. I appreciate it. Welcome to the PGA.
Thanks Paul, very smart and positive new swing concept.
Glad you liked it. Thanks.
Many of Paul's videos have been beneficial for me. And, that golf course behind him always looks great! Very picturesque. I wish I could try to play there one day.
Glad like the tips and are improving. Yes, nice track. Great view.
Thanks Paul. Your methods have really helped my game. Wish I’d seen your videos years ago
So glad you are doing well. I hear that a lot. Let's look forward to great golf in the future.
YES. I went to the range after watching one of your videos on curing the slice, and what I discovered was that I had been swinging wrong with my driver this whole time. Now I have the sensation of swinging "sideways" at the ball, much like a baseball swing. What I found is that my slice is GONE. If I mis-hit, if anything it is going LEFT. I gained distance, and cannot believe it didn't dawn on me sooner. And 100% it is due to watching your video. I have watched hundreds of videos looking for the "cure", and in all honesty had resigned to a strong grip and aiming left. Even considered a 1 iron! But not anymore. If you can get the sensation of swinging sideways at the ball I promise you it's going to help . Like numerous viewers have already said. THANK YOU!
So glad you saw this and tried it. Great feeling when you are on track. Stay focused and keep perfecting it. Should be a great season for you.
Paul, I accidentally learned that taking practice swings on a severe (30 degrees....) uphill lie gives me the swing feeling that I think you are teaching here in this video. It has helped me a lot.
Yep. Heard people work on that before. Why not just hold the club up and imagine you are on the slope? Seems easier plus you won't fall back on your heels.
@@paulwilsongolf Thanks for your reply. Yes, Paul, I do what you suggested too. I accidentally discovered this aid when I realized that I was always hitting my finest shots (accuracy, length, feeling, etc.) when I was hitting off a fairly severe uphill lie (ball 4 to 8 inches above my feet). Go figure. So I try to mimic that feeling just prior to my swing. It seems to work best with the driver and hybrids.
@@paulwilsongolf I have been using this tip a lot lately. It only fails when I get too aggressive and swing predominately with my arms; however, when I concentrate on using my hips (body) I get phenomenal results. Now, if I could only get my brain to obey: "Swing with your body". Thanks, Paul.
Paul 12 hit 12 hit 1:21 hit
Thats why the golf community needs to stop calling it a DOWNswing.
Throughswing would help us all. My coach Colin McCarthy always preaches this
Thanks Paul. Your the best!
Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
Yes Paul it is how it works "around around" thank you
Glad you see it. Let me know how you do.
My golf game has improved tremendously since I started watching Paul videos. He is so clear and easy to understand. I cannot thank him enough!!!!!
Glad you are doing well. I love hearing it. Simple is the key. Please keep spreading the word.
Hello Paul, I think they think down because people say you have to hit down to compress the ball. One of my playing partners said that to me the other day. I told him I don’t even think about hitting the ball and proceeded to hit the ball 5ft. From the hole from 200yrds out and told him he needs to watch your videos😅.
Keep up the good work, you’ve helped my game .
Exactly. I think I said that in the tip. in no way should you ever do that. I am not hitting anything and my club hits down and takes a divot. People have to understand "why" a divot occurs. This is why: czcams.com/video/_ji_zykZlY8/video.html
So as you need no one is even teaching it because they think you need to hit down. Think like that and you will have a lifetime of hitting with arms shooting 90's and in pain. Once you get to 73 you will literally hit it nowhere. Stay loose!
@@paulwilsongolf , you’re awesome. They are always chasing their tails and they have seen my game improve so much that you’d think they would swallow their pride and watch your videos. I tell them how much easier it is to play this game when you know the secret. Like the old saying says, “ You can buy them the books, but if all they do is chew on the covers it does no good.”😅
Truly mind boggling. So true though. Keep doing what you are doing. One day they will hit it nowhere then maybe they will hop on board.
This was amazing and helped me on the course yesterday. As well I did this before I made the shot but, as you said in another video, not to take to much time over the ball so that the feeling isn’t lost. I practice this with your lag drill to get the body rotation. Also I don’t have much room to swing a club in my home but I found tying a knot at the end of a towel makes a good golf club proxy.
Glad you are getting it. Those are good drills. As for swings inside you can always grip down on your club and hold it off the ground or get a kids club. For right now the towel is fine but try t o do it with a club.
I swear this video has the potential to change my life. I just went to the range today after swinging like this each day in my yard this since this video was released. I think I may have had the best range session I’ve ever had. This tip SPEAKS to me in a way that no tip has ever done. Thank you and I’m done having kids, but I may have to change one of their names to Paul since I’m too late to name a kid after you.
It sure does. Easy to make the switch too because it's a simple thought. Paul Ninjapants. Kind of has a ring to it.
MIND BLOWN!!!!
Glad you liked it. This will make the world of difference.
Your teaching is so similar to the easiest swing guys. These tension free swings and light grip just free up the whole body. It really works and has made huge improvements to my game. Thank you for your teaching.
No idea who they are. I am now in my 33rd year of teaching this same stuff. Just looked them up. The one guy has a nice looking swing. Oh I see it's Sparks just with a new channel name. I like his stuff.
Sans doute la vidéo la plus importante a voir et á revoir😊
Content que tu vois que c'est important. Juste une façon différente de penser. Essayez-le et faites-moi savoir comment vous faites.
I just had to come here and comment after the golf I played today. Striped the drive on the first hole and immediately the wheels started to wobble. By the fifth hole they were off - then I started to overanalyze which made it worse. By the sixth I was in knots. Then, like an epiphany, I hear Paul's voice, "around, and around". It was so simple. I parred the next 3 holes. True story.
This is because your expectations were too high. You need to watch this tip on how to warm up before playing:
czcams.com/video/LuR6c3IrnFc/video.html
Thinking about your swing on the course is definitely not good. Glad you see that. Here is what to do if you lose it:
czcams.com/video/guSh4B4DM8c/video.html
Glad you remembered me while you were out there. This was a simple clear thought that got you to stop thinking about all of the other things. Keep this stuff simple. What you also need to do is watch your ball so you can fix your own swing ... instantly. This tip kind of explains it:
czcams.com/video/bLskGy7rulo/video.html
We call the takeaway the BACKswing not the UPswing. We then call the forward motion the DOWNswing, instead of the FORWARDswing. 😂 Paul makes so much sense in his explanations. Been watching the videos for years and it’s made golf fun.
Glad you like them and are improving. Keep at it.
Around and around not-- up and down! One, two, three swing. One, two, three.
Thanks Paul. God bless you and god bless Chubby Checker.
Good way to remember it.
Your a brilliant instructor Paul, it’s taking some time for me to finally get it. I say over and over in my head, “hinge, re hinge” the around , around was always easy for men, but I simply needed to fully hinge, which I never did because I was afraid I was lose the club or miss the ball. Building the confidence by loosening the wrists and arms really changed my game!
The hinging and rehinging is a huge part of this. That is the clubhead speed. Just do it every day at home. I don't need you hitting balls working on this. The ball is the problem. You want to hit (which locks the wrists) while I want you loosening the wrists. Do it every day and in days, weeks or a month you will have it for life.
A carry over from the instruction, the arms work up and down and the body moves the club around. Some how the fact the plane is inclined got distorted in the old approach. Nice clear explanation.
As I said in the tip I don't want you swinging perfectly flat. That would be too flat to what I teach. As the club goes around it goes up a little so the lead arm is slightly above the shoulder plane. To me this is ideal. Glad you see it.
I usually shoot in the mid 80s, and after switching to your swing method I just shot a 78. Thank you so much!
Nice round. Stay focused. You better watch these before your next round:

I did this at the range today and man, AMAZING!!! Made my first divot!!! THE TRUTH!!! Thanks Mr. Paul Wilson!
You mean your first divot AFTER the ball, lol
So glad you tried it and see the dramatic effect. First divot. Wow. Good start. More to come. Keep at it.
@@joecai2841 That is correct 😂😂😂

Thank you paul , finally my swing is fixed
Very good. Stay focused and think like this into the future.
Great video, Paul, as usual. Your idea of soft wrists has improved my carry distance.
I've always thought that most golf pros, if not all of them, say that it's a bit of both around (when you take the club away) and up (when you fold the trail arm). On the downswing, it also does both down (at the beginning of the downswing) and around as you tilt your body back to allow the club to hit the ball.
Off-topic question: how come most golf pros I've seen on CZcams do not address real-life on-course strategies, such as, you hooked the ball into some trees and you need to keep it low on your next shot or you slice into some trouble on the right and you need to hit it high over some tree limbs? Most videos I've seen only focus on the golf swing itself and not on problem-based learning.
Glad you are loosening up and seeing the results. If people see that why on earth would they ever swing tight ever again?
I want you thinking around and around. It will go up on it's own. If you think up of course you (like everyone else) will overdo it then go too high up and try to hit down. Think around and around and see what happens. I did say in the video I don't want you too flat.
The reason they don't do those tips is because no one will watch them. People keep asking about short game tips. I do one and it is the worst viewed tip on the channel. The problem there is one bad tip and it it affects all of your tips. I have some on course ones I will be doing in the near future.
I’ve switched to your swing about 2 months ago everyday I’m my backyard I practice the swing hitting into my practice net. Took me awhile to really get it figure out the theory so I finally took to the range and hit driver and 3 wood wow really big difference. I’m finally going to play a round I think I’m ready
Very good. Glad you worked on it and are ready to try it. Read:
Taking it from the range to the course: you need to go out by yourself with 3 extra golf balls in your pocket. Don't keep score. Swing no more than 50%. Drop balls and hit extra shots. It is about actually trying something new when you play. If you keep doing your old swing when do you ever change? With driver, you pick a close target a few yards away or way way way in the distance that you cannot possibly reach. You cannot pick a fairway bunker at 250. This is a distance thought. So with new targets, your thought is to hit the fairway not hit it 250 down the fairway. Irons, I would be taking one more club and trying to hit the center of the green not the pin. Swing smoothly. Throughout the round you could be doing practice swings holding the club in the air hinging and rehinging to keep the wrists loose and other times you can be holding it in the air firing your legs and hips so you get used to the feeling of using them as the power source not the arms. Do this for a few rounds by yourself until you get used to a new way of swinging. Right now, if you play with others you will think distance and you will revert back to your old swing. It is all about doing something new. It takes a little time to get used to it. Also, don't forget to do daily practice swings at home.
@@paulwilsongolf appreciate that your swing is my last resort. I’m all in
Very good. Keep it simple. Don't try to get everything all at once. Get the pieces. Do daily practice swings at home. This is the easiest way to get it.
Thanks again. I’ve been following your advice for couple years and have seen lots of improvements.
With the driver being longer do you think the tempo of the swing should change? I struggle the most with the driver.
I tend to fit better shots as I feel like I’m slowing my driver swing. I think I sacrifice some distance though.
Glad you are sticking with me and improving. That's what it's all about. As for driver I drive my lower body way harder with driver than I do with a pitching wedge. Your tempo is determine by rotational speed of your body. The body moves slow in life so even though you are firing harder the tempo would look almost the same. Watch this one: czcams.com/video/g3-7Vo7RnVs/video.html
@@paulwilsongolf thanks
Dead on ,it works immediately. I started by Shortening the backswing to get started.
It s sure does. Glad you tried it.
Azuda Paul.
Hello Paul you’re vids are great
I am from England and you sound just like Stephen from coronation street.
I used to watch Corrie years ago. I looked him up. He wasn't on when I was watching. Not sure I hear it. Seems kind of a weak character.
I tried this today, it was actually insane. Unreal tips. I just need to remember to keep hands close to the body otherwise I was shanking
Glad you tried it and see the difference. This is game changing.
Around and around. Dramatic change like night and day. Why didn’t I start off this way. Better late than never huh. Wow. Paul Wilson does it again. Takes a complicated game and makes it simple enough to get through to us. Ok let’s tell it like it is. Paul Wilson is a genius golf coach and it’s the lucky ones who have discovered him because we know we have really lucked in. Spread the news
You see it now. This is a different thought. Do this and your swing will dramatically change. Add this to your daily practice swings. Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
@@paulwilsongolf 😊🍀❤️
Hi Paul; I've been hearing discussions lately about the swing being either a throwing motion or pulling it through impact. Do you have an opinion about this?
These would be arms thoughts. I want your arms powerless coming down and through. I saw the video. I think the throw was closer to what I teach. In now way would I want you pulling the club down. That would be using the arms.
@@paulwilsongolf Great! Thanks Paul.
Paul, I am one of your biggest on line students. However the body swing looks so simple but I make it so difficult. I have truly been working on this and I won't give up. Wish I wasn't 2000 miles away from you or I would be getting lessons every week. I think I have a good practice swing but as soon as I step over the ball, it goes bad. Definitely better when I swing slow and easy. The loose wrist is a tough one for me. I won't give up. ..
So make it simple. If your practice swings is good yet it changes when you put a ball down you are thinking of hitting the ball. You need to be thinking of swinging through to point B. Do you have my Body Swing book and videos? If so, this would tell me that you have not been working on it as I suggest. I teach the follow through first. 2 precise positions that you can do every time exactly the same and I cannot do them better than you. Do you work on grip, setup and follow through first. You do daily practice swings until perfect. Then you add the coil then the hinge. Get that and you look like a pro when you swing. Pros have the right fundamentals. Look like them then you have them too. Final step turn off your arms in the down and through swing. It is that simple. Literally in 4 positions I can make you look like pro. Why would you not want to look like them as you swing. The problem is the ball. People want to hit while I want them to do the moves. See the disconnect. Stop hitting many balls and do way more practice swings learning the positions I teach. Build the swing. If you get the swing you get the ball. If you keep trying to hit the ball you never get the swing.
@@paulwilsongolf Exactly! I just started re-reading your Body Swing book as a refresher. The tip in this video is one that I always do during a round to just keep it simple. As stated in a different video comment, also reverting back to your neutral grip, 50+ swings per day on the patio until I can get to a range. Thanks Paul, keep 'em coming!
That's great that you are going back to the book. This should be a regular thing so your swing doesn't get off track. Also, daily practice swings. Get into the habit of doing them.
@paulwilsongolf
Hey Paul,
Just wanted to give you an update. Played this past weekend and shot my best round since last summer. Drove the ball REALLY well. Irons were inconsistent but I managed to post a decent score. My handicap index is 17.1
The best I've ever had was 11, and I'd really like to get that back. Has promising signs though so I'm not stopping. I've got to keep at it. Rome wasn't built in a day,lol. Thanks for all of your help...
Best
That's great. You are heading in the right direction. Keep doing daily practice swings. This is the fastest way to get it.
Coooaach😊 lol
You are the best
When I changed my thinking to this thought process
Par 5s In two shots not everyone but it's been quite a few
I have a confidence now that I never had before and it feels great.
The guys are watching me in the tee box I Told Them

It's amazing what you can accomplish if you would listen.
Thanks so much 💪
I finally know how to hit a golf ball
With Consistency . And Accuracy 😮
Very good. So glad you tried it and see the difference. Just a new thought. Doesn't take long but as you see it is dramatic.
@@paulwilsongolf
Seriously though
I'm hitting the ball into new territory and I got to work on my short game not using my head in the short game
Glad you are doing well. I keep the short game super simple but highly effective. I don't have a ton of short game tips posted. It's a fine line with what I give away. I have a membership site where people pay for access so it's not really fair to them if I give everything away. Plus, I do a short game tip and no one watches it (crazy).

Hey coach
That book you have how many pages is it
If you can send me the link with the book and DVDs
I tried to download the ones that you sent and I couldn't open the files in my PDF so if everything is in the book I'll just read let me know thanks for all you've done
Thank you for your interest in my products. The book is 205 pages in PDF format. I do not have a physical book. Not sure what the issue is on opening the PDF. No one else is having an issue so it has to be your system. Try updating your adobe acrobat pdf reader see if that works. Can't remember if the downloads for the book are zipped. If so you need to unzip them first. Here are my Body Swing products: www.paulwilsongolf.com/site/the-body-swing
Hi Paul, a local pro that I played with in a charity tournament said I should get extensions on my irons as I am 6'4 and have had low back issues over the years.....thoughts?....it appears your swing style is way more upright? you commented below on the newer "rotational golf swing" being taught these days. why is that bad for low backs?...alot of them are trying to achieve a "passive/square" release I believe. Look forward to your thoughts as I am sure I'm not the only 52 year old tall guy with back issues that loves to play! thanks.
Good idea. You need to be careful though. The longer the club the heavy it is. You extend them too much and the will be super heavy. So heavy you might not be able to swing them. At 6'4" maybe an 1" 1.5" but then you bend them upright to make them longer without changing the swing weight. I would have a professional fitter do it. Perfect your setup up first. My swing is just not bent over. This new swing is not dominating the tour so I will never teach it. I have always had a bad back. I have spondylolisthesis. My back never hurts playing golf. I have tried this new tilted swing numerous times now and every time I wake up with serious back pain. Just think, you are tilted. This compresses your spine. All you have to do is stand there then tilt over and hold this position. See how long it takes before you feel your back on fire. Then stand a little taller and you will have no pain. You will start seeing the injuries in the very near future. Morikawa is already squatting to tee up his ball. He is 26. I would have never thought of doing that. More injuries to come. You'll see.
I am building a swing for life. Imagine a 75 year old trying to do that swing. Not going to happen. So I want you in a normal athletic position. Not too tall but certainly not bent over too much. The way you can check is that you cannot clearly see your toes when you set up. Peripheral is fine. Don't clearly see your toes at set up.
it is night and day! 😅 best teacher far away on the net!!
Well, I just see it differently that others. Fast and easy. That is how I have thought since 1991. So when you think like that you teach it differently.
@@paulwilsongolf nooo sorry if you missundestood! i love it! and just makes me laugh with your comments :) my feeling and idea of how to hit the ball changes for so good since i follow you! all the best !! :)
Not at all. Just letting you know why I say it the way I say it. I know what everyone else is teaching. I know the results I get so I will keep saying it how I say it. Glad you are on board.
@@paulwilsongolf of course! I am not professional golfer and for me your tips are far away the best for me! now everything makes more sense.. thats what i tried to say. And i love your humor :) Hope to see you soon 1 day!
Glad you are figuring it out and improving. You need to understand what you are doing and how it works. This is half the battle. Keep at it and look me up if you come to town.
Hi Paul- I so so enjoy your tips and method of teaching. I believe everything you’re saying, however, it’s a matter of me making it happen. Have spent many hrs watching the Body Swing and am curious……How many times have you hit the couch or almost hit the piano?? Man is your wife kind to let you swing in the living room 😂
Thanks as always. Your 🇨🇦 friend
Thanks for the support. I appreciate it. Well, I have hit things before so sure. I took a chunk out of that carpet. Had to glue it back. She doesn't know about that one. as for you working on it. You need to do the positions precisely. In 4 positions plus your grip and set up I can literally make you look like a tour pro. Who else in the world is going to say that. The problem is the ball. I show people how to do it. I want them to do daily practice swings and they don't do them. They just want to whack golf balls. So frustrating to me.
Here lately it "seems" that I am going around too much with follow-through and I am skying the ball(with driver) but I am not coming over the top with my back shoulder. It seems I am tilting too much? Is that possible? And I seem to be hitting the ball too close to the shaft(inside) on the face(especially irons). What can I check to see what I am doing wrong?
If you are skying the ball your head is moving ahead of the ball in the downswing. Yes, it sound like you are too tilted and ready to shank those shorter clubs. Stand up a little more. Short stop or ready position. That will stand you up a little bit. Also watch these:
czcams.com/video/eSxP7pcuS68/video.html
czcams.com/video/GF7JQHr2hhw/video.html
czcams.com/video/m9kj0548rYw/video.html
I get what your are saying, the challenge for a lot of us that that is messing with our perspective on how the heck the club will make it to the ground to send the ball forward 😏
As I said. You do up in the in the air then tilt it it would go up and down without thinking about it. So doo some practice swings in the air and remember this feeling then slower lower to the ball. Tee it up a little as you get used to it.
Omg , your Talking to me 😂
Thank You Sir. Around and Around She Goes !
For sure. Simple thought.
Hi Paul. I assume you are not a fan of the "modern" golf swing (which some pros are doing) which takes the hands out of the swing?
No not a fan. Who is teaching that swing. Young people. Is that swing dominating on tour? No. Who is dominating? Scottie Sheffler. I mainly teach older players that started as adults. There is no way on earth they are going to do that new swing. It requires minimum 45 degrees hip rotation and being bent over. Your average player is never going to do that plus it will kill your back. I teach a swing for life that is effortless and pain-free. Can't wait to see how those guys are holding up 20 years from now.
Cool
Thanks so much.
Excellent point of view Monsieur ! From my very humble opinion I believe a good drill to achieve this is to practice with the ball upper than you feet. Doin’ this you’ll have no choice but moving arooouuunnd & arooouuunnd!😂
That is a good drill unfortunately few will do it. This way they can do it right there then hit the ball with the same feeling you just had in the practice swing.
Easily the best golf vids.
Thanks so much. I appreciate it.
Paul man how do you make it look that easy 😅
Well, it is easy when you think about it. The problem is the ball sitting there and human nature telling you to hit it and hit it hard. I am not hitting anything. I do a movement and the ball is hit. big difference. All you have to do it see it differently. Work on hinging and rehinging first until you can hook every ball. At this point you need to remember this feeling as you switch to firing your legs and hips to hit the ball (differently power source). If it was as easy as hitting with the arms wouldn't everyone be good? Few are good. Few still are really good. The ones who are good are using their bodies not their arms but we did learn as kids which is a huge advantage.
I think this relates to your old videos with the Iron Byron swinging machine. The Iron Byron does not throw the club at the target or at the ball, it does not let go of the club. It swings the club in a circle using one arm and a free hinging "hand". It gets its amazing accuracy and consistency by swinging one circle by having no body rotation and no weight shift, the part that moves is similar to a golfers shoulder so Iron Byron does not have moving hips, pelvis or spine,. It just makes one circle preset by the setup position. But the human anatomy cannot move and function like the one armed Iron Byron machine. So that's why your circle is different on your backswing then on your thru swing. Also your joints have cannot free wheel rotate 360 degrees, so even though you are trying to swing the club in a circle it will not be a perfect circle. But you are trying to swing the whole club in a circle or circular motion, you are not trying to hit the ball with the clubhead.
Everything I teach is based on Iron Byron still. If you lifted the machine up so it was vertical it would go around and around.
-------------------------------
"The Iron Byron does not throw the club at the target or at the ball, it does not let go of the club. " - That is because the arm is a piece of metal. There is no power in it.
-------------------------------
It swings the club in a circle using one arm and a free hinging "hand". The arm is the left arm in the backswing. The right arm in the through swing. This is how you get a one armed machine to copy a 2 armed golfer. Left arm extend back and down then the right arm extends in the through swing.
-------------------------------
"It gets its amazing accuracy and consistency by swinging one circle by having no body rotation and no weight shift, the part that moves is similar to a golfers shoulder so Iron Byron does not have moving hips, pelvis or spine,." - The machine was made to test shafts to it is 100%. Yes, it does a perfect circle because it is made of metal. We are not. The driveshaft represents the golfers upper body (waist up). The motor is the golfers legs and hips.
-------------------------------
"It just makes one circle preset by the setup position. But the human anatomy cannot move and function like the one armed Iron Byron machine. So that's why your circle is different on your backswing then on your thru swing." - The machine was modeled after Byron Nelson's golf swing so yes, we can copy the machine. - In our golf swing we have 2 axis. One in the backswing, one in the through swing. So our swing is an oval. The machine is a circle because it has to be 100% to test clubs.
-------------------------------
So to copy the machine you need to do the 3 elements of the machine. Are you going to do them 100%. No. No golfer can because there is lateral in the human golf swing. The element are:
1. Circular body rotation
2. Unrestricted hinge.
3. Constant forward tilt
Those are the 3 things I have been teaching since 1999. My first 8 years were spent making people copy pros. All pros copy the 3 elements of the machine. This is the inventor saying this. This is what allowed them to have a machine concept. ALL pros have amazing similarity in their swings.

Paul I need help please. I went an played my first round yesterday. I started hitting my driver good. But my irons different story. In my yard I flush them,on the course I hit them on the toe,I top them. My hands are arthritic an this am they are mess. I just need help. I can’t hit my wedge a 100 yards. Can you help me please? My chipping is spot on. But I don’t know maybe I should just quit. I’m sucking at the game I love! I’m 64 an I love the game!
Please HELP IF YOU CAN.
You are trying to hit down with your irons. You DO NOT need to do this. Follow this tip:
czcams.com/video/gJOq_LO6oRg/video.html
Toeing is standing up which pulls the club in. Topping is you hitting hard with your arms so I know you are hitting with your arms. I am not hitting anything. I am doing a movement which moves the club. The ball is in the way of the club so it is hit. Watch this too:

Work on your release cause the harder you hit the tighter your wrists:

Paul! You about gave me a heart attack! After following you and working on your Body Swing, the title of this video made me think you'd changed your mind and switched up the swing you teach...
Yeah, no way I will ever change what I teach. I get unreal results in minutes. Nothing is going to make me get people there faster. Just need to understand it and do a little work. The ball is problem. Everyone wants to hit so the faster I get people to stop thinking like that the faster they get it.
@@paulwilsongolf Yes, as I've said in comments to other posts, my brain is my biggest swing flaw... it wants to hit that ball!
So stop. Hitting hard is not going to make it go any longer. Do this drill until mastered: czcams.com/video/cVhtL-d1B9Y/video.html
Taaaap it in. Taaaap it in. My son can smash clubs and he doesn’t even try. I suck and can’t get much better. Slower seems to be better. My son swings slow and the ball goes crazy far. My short game is decent but wow my distance is garbage.
So you need to learn how to do it. Just start with these:
Body Swing Concept: czcams.com/video/E8y9jEyY35k/video.html
Grip: czcams.com/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/video.html
Alignment: czcams.com/video/VFZc0Wq282k/video.html

Body: czcams.com/video/RdphthCQ9VM/video.html
Understand the concept. This stuff is not hard. You naturally want to hit. I want you to use your body. Your son learned as a kid with minimal arms strength. You learned as an adult with arm strength. This is the difference. Watch this one too:
czcams.com/video/I8WRHJkTzyY/video.html
Got schooled on how to finally grip the club. Been doing it all wrong over the years. I don’t want a new way to swing I just want hit the ball. 😂
The grip is tricky but it is vital. Well just wanting to hit the ball is never going to work. You need to understand it and do a little work. Just follow my tips. I will get you there in no time.

👍👍👍👏
Remember everybody, AROUND AND AROUND!!
I guess you've never taught anyone how to play golf. I can say something 200 times and on the very next ball they don't do it. So, yes, around and around.
My game goes around and around.
Well, you need new thoughts. They are all on my channel. I am literally handing to everyone on a silver platter. They just have to hear what I am saying.
@@paulwilsongolf u are right
I can’t wait to hit range and work on shallowing club, using writs and swinging in a circle.
Coming from baseball
I come over top and try to “hit” the ball
Sore rhomboid, golfers elbow
Tired of soreness
Pain free golf is what I want
Thanks for all your work
Coming from baseball this should be a no brainer. Also, a thought that I had just the other day is as you are setting up to the ball and waggling imagine the club is a baseball bat. Feel the weight of it. In baseball your arms are like jello. I don't have to say one word to someone about loosening up when I get them thinking baseball so this is the same feeling in the arms in golf but you have to tell yourself to do it in golf because the ball is stationary.

I feel like when I work on my irons and get them striking consistently then I go back to my woods or driver and I can’t hit a good drive 😂
Slow down. You keep trying to hit driver 300 yards. Get it then speed it up. I would assume you are hitting driver to the right? Watch:

As anyone who played Tee ball as a kid, they would understand this instantly.
Perfect. Tee ball then lower the tee.
Man I’m trying hitting balls all day I can’t grasp this I’ll hit few clean then hit s bunch off toe hosel thin fat few more nice then bad again I’m hinging I’m trying it all I can’t get it to work and this is my last hope before I finally give up
Toed shots are you standing up.
Thin - hitting with arms standing up.
Hosel - hitting with arms leaning forward.
So you are still hitting with the arms. Just use this tip as a thought. Make it simple. You thinking of going around and around as opposed to lifting your arms up and hitting down.
Right now, you need to stop working on a ton of stuff. You are ONLY working on your arm unit hinging and rehinging.
Just sit there every day doing daily practice swings doing the drills below. If you hit balls do some drills then hit a ball then do practice swings and hit another ball and so on. It's about repetition. Over and over until you loosen your wrists. This is step 1. Once you get that you start firing your hips. That is step 2. Can't get to step 2 unless you get step 1.

I can do this with my driver but as soon as I go to another club...I lose it... can't figure this out..
Here you go: czcams.com/video/gJOq_LO6oRg/video.html
I know there is feel vs real. I see your hands below your belt at address, but as high as your shoulders at the top of the backswing. I know the tilt will effect that, but I guess I am still confused. I am not doubting anything you say, but more saying please be patient and keep teaching us.
In the tip I said not to be too flat. The thought is around and around. If I told you to go around then up you would go up too high just like everyone else then you would hit down. I no way am I doing hitting down. As you see my arm is slightly above my shoulder plane. This to me is ideal. So think around and around as I said then let me know what happens. Tee it up and start with a 7 iron. Do high swings then slowly lower the club until you get the the ball then apply the very same feeling.
@@paulwilsongolf Thank you. Around and around. Got it! I was always a terrible slicer. I kind of turned that into a big fade. Last time at the range I was hooking driver badly for the first time.. I know you have said that is progress.
Perfect. That is half right. You have the spin. You don't have the direction. So you keep the feeling of the release that you are now doing. Then you switch to firing your hips. If they start first you will hit it dead straight. Watch me do it:
czcams.com/video/q5RojTx5sHI/video.html
This will be you. No joke.
makes sense why driver is easier to hit for me, im standing more upright
Exactly. Need to think outside the box. For me standing on a tee deck for now my 33rd year I started to think that way. There has to be a reason for everything. There has to be a reason people are still struggling. Just see it differently.
That is called "the baseball drill".....
This would be like a baseball drill. It is the explanation that I wanted to register with people.
@@paulwilsongolf I do that drill all the time!! Its a winner, winner, chicken dinner!!
I learned it from a teaching pro in Ohio about 20 years ago
Paul W. You have all of the best tips!
Golf is hard coz people try to make it more complicated
Well I realized that back in 1991. This is why I keep it simple.
You almost lost, setting up your tutorial. However you are right, it is a new way of thinking about the golf swing and less complicated. I am glad I watched until the end. Hopefully no more fore right.🏌🏿♀️
Glad you see it. Definitely watch all of my tips to the end. As I say them I think of things and say them later. Keep this thought and try it. Then let me know how you did.
