You're a great teacher Clay.....calm, clear and precise. So many poor golf instruction vids out there. Keep up the good work and thank you!

Blimey Clay - I can't believe I've spent 10 years trying to work out why I can't swing in-to-out and didn't think about your point at 4.09 - talk about an eye-opener. Thank you Clay!

You are the best teacher!!!

I have probably said this to you a dozen times but this is really your best video yet. I'm literal minded so I need precise instruction. When you said, "the swing is 30 degrees out to the right. It’s the opening of the body that makes it square." a light bulb went off in my head. Thanks again. By the way, I was 2 over today. Some of that improvement is due your you.

Was blessed yesterday to be able to go out in the wet winter conditions, used your tips for the take away and other drills and was crushing the ball!

I am saving this video to watch again and again. My new swing thought: "Low trap draw + half swing" 😀

Excellent technique. Many thanks. You should talk about grip pressure.

Clay, absolutely GREAT instruction video. Thank you!!

Very organized, clear and concise! Well done Clay⛳️🏌🏾 Oh, and I like that I can now determine when the vid was produced. The Titleist , Ping and the beard era😜

A very timely tip on compressing the ball. That is my #1 problem from the fairway. Majority of my hits are the thin shots you demonstrated while occasionally over correcting and then hitting the ball fat.

Great tips! The tip you gave me about backing my trail foot and allowing my lead foot to come up when I strike the ball helped alot! Also found that doing that with a super strong grip has helped me get better foward shaft lean and a cleaner strike. Thank you for all the great work and tips you have been doing. #1 instructor!

Great,great video. Ever since I have used the trap draw in my swing, it's made a world of difference in my consistency

Thanks Clay for all the great content this year!. This is another awesome video! I've been following you for awhile and if I had to rank all the KZfaq golf instruction, you would be #1 no question! Happy New Year!

I just started playing golf about 3 or 4 months ago. Never played before hand. (With baseball I was never allowed). Now at 30, and wanting to just do something, i broke down and tried it. Even though 13 years ago since ive played baseball, the muscle memory and everything tend to blend. No wonder they told me to never mix the two at a young age. I dont have a lot of time to practice and only played 3 times on the field outside of hitting the range for a hour or two. Your videos are amazing and help me so much into transitioning baseball to golf. I study these videos and try out everything on the range to just get the movement, hips, arms, wrist and hand placements. Keep up the amazing videos and i always look forward to the notifications coming in about a new video. Even if its out of my league, i still watch to try and install it in my swings. #bestcoach

Good revision without putting too many thoughts in the swing. I like the analogy with the frisby, particularly in the phase of the swing when you compress the ball.

Brilliant putting advice! Im going to work on those four steps a lot.

You have the best video of all

Great video Clay, and I agree with you about those 3 shots, especially the putt.

Thanks for another great video! It enlightens me for the right way of swing.

Your a legend clay - really helping me improve my game 👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for all the swing lessons this year Clay and Happy New Year. I tried the full shoulder turn the other day and seen instant big gains in yards, just gotta work on it some more cause sometimes I was hitting way behind the ball lol

Great tips Clay. Feels great trying it at home. I can’t wait to hit some balls at the range using this methods.

As a 6'6" golfer, I use the the pressure style 1/2 swing on all my full shots...I stay connected and maintain better balance...works for me

My game is really improving thanks to your lessons, Thank you so much

Got a set of Callaway's CF16 APEX getting ready for the new season Clay good vid need to work on my specialty shots around the greens and Happy New Year !

Awesomeness as usual Also looking swole Clay 💪 Big size difference since last year Good job 👍

Brilliant as always Clay.

Who are the 7 thumbs downers who said, "Lets F with Clay and thumbs down his azz even though we know in our hearts he's a Golfin G and he kicks us down for FREE, with some of the best golf teachings on the Tube." Remember back in the Day when Eric B and Rakim said there were 7 sucka MC's? If y'all ever wanted to know what they've been up to, it appears they've been thumbs downing awesome Golf teachings on the tube...Hatin is a disease, like AIDS. 😂

Another great video Clay.🏌️‍♂️

great video, thanks clay

As always. Good work clay

Excellent instruction and great tips here.

I didn’t know what I was doing wrong, but I am glad you knew what I was doing wrong. 👍

Pretty daggon good..not gonna make many 10 foot putts, proceeds to make every single putt..that is pretty daggon good

Clay do you have any birds eye view videos of the swing. Would be good especially in the club release stuff. Cheers from England .....

Perfect.

One of my big problems is hitting flat footed and I always hit it short , will definitely will try the half back swing .

Great vid Clay. Love your content.

Hey Clay, great video, one of the better ones for sure. The 'Pressure Beater' segment was great, and was wondering if you elaborate on that a bit more. My thought was perhaps you could create a video where you dissect either Finau or Rahm's, or both, since (correct me if I'm wrong) take shorter backswings than most players, albeit generate huge power. I try my best to play the short backswing, and I generate loads of power with driver (300 avg), but struggle with my iron distance, and am consistently coming short in my approach shots due to me playing the yardage I believe I should be hitting in my head.

The bow your left wrist move, does that works for driver and other clubs?

Very good tip

Wondering if you can help me with a slicer's problem: I have a naturally steep angle of attack in my swing. When I try to shallow out the club, my wrists can no longer turn over in time, leaving the face wide open at impact. When I fix my wrist to ensure I'm turning the club over, my swing natural becomes more steep, causing right to left path with a square face, causing the ball to slice. I bow my wrists like crazy, but I'm pretty sure based on videos of my swing that my shoulders come forward as I open up my hips WAY too early, causing a right to left path (righty swing). How do I fix this issue?

if you use the low trap draw, what's difference in distance compared to a full swing?

Turning the back of the left wrist towards the ground and letting it supinate the way you showed really is one of the biggest game changers in my experience with your irons. I dont have a lot of success with that with the driver though. Almost have to intentionally not de loft it nearly as much because the driver already doesnt have as much loft, even when I try to stay behind the ball. Any thoughts on that wrist movement with the driver? Does that still work for you Clay?

Something else I would like to ask. Is it possible to put out a video that shows how to play shots from uneven lies? Uphill, downhill, or sidehill. The last one is the shot I really struggle with. Conventional wisdom says balls above your feet on sidehill lies will go left while balls below your feet will have the tendency to go right. But for me they do just the opposite. At my local club we have a hole that almost always gives me a lie where the ball is severely below my feet by almost a foot and when I allow for the ball to go to the right by aiming more left of the green, 9 times out of 10 I will get the double cross with the ball going either right where I aimed or even more left. I am RHed. Thanks

How can there be any thumbs down on these videos. Great swing thoughts!! Thank you

This man speaks knowledge. Listen up :)

I'm comfortable with the trap draw feeling with wedges into my mid irons, but not so much with long irons. With the ball further up in my stance it's harder for me to feel comfortable coming shallow from the inside and making proper contact with the ball and ground...any advice for this?

When I am having a bad round/week, I switch to #2 for all shots. When I am testing clubs, I use half-swings. If I played for money, it would be with half-swings. Why don't I stick with half swings (like Tony Finau)...I am a golfer :-)

Clay, I don't doubt your recommendation for forward shaft lean at impact. But your argument sounds like it is more about compression & distance than it is about avoiding the deadly fat & thin problem pair. Heck, instead of leaning forward the shaft of my 8 iron, perhaps I could use a 6 iron and wrist the club shaft into perpendicular (to the ground) at impact: you disagree and probably for good reasons, but this video is too vague on what those reasons are. Fat & thin are killing my game, not distance issues. Thanks.

Man you've bulked up! look at those guns!

Putting and putters -Evnroll,Titleist Scotty Cameron,PING sigma G,Odyssey ? Decisions decisions !

It's all in the hips Chubbs 😂😂

My hands Capp came down fast when I learned how to chip and score ??? especially chip ????

Hi clay. Thanks for the tips. One thing I struggle with is changing from iron swing to driver swing. Going from hitting down to hitting up, I feel like I have to flip my wrists to hit the driver on the up, when I get in a good rhythm of this I then start flipping with the iron's. I can never have it both ways it's compressing nicely with an iron and my best rounds are without a driver. Do you have advice for being able to do both methods on the same day.

But I tend to hit the ground way before the ball if I do this tip

Why not to use both hand?

CLAY:TEACH LIFTING YOUR LEFT HEEL OF THE GROUND, WATCH JACK NICHOLES YOU WILL GAIN 6-8" MORE IN SHOULDER TURN , NO MORE BACK PAIN BY KEEPING LEFT FOOT ON GROUND
