Watch my Next video w JT SLING SHOT GOLF SWING 🌀 PLANE POWER with TOP YOUNG #GOLF Coach JT Thomas kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9WjYLGEubyZho0.html

Honestly, one of the best videos on hitting the driver I have seen. Would be great to have another one covering the release since I think that is also an area where things can go side ways.

The old dude walking past was class 😂😂😂😂

JT is great at explaining how the body should work in the golf swing. Took lessons with him in NY, great instructor!

I took this to the course this past Saturday. Shot a 77 from blues (6,450). Haven't done that in over 8 months. Really tried to work on protracting my left arm. Haven't had this much fun in a long time. I'm 64 yrs old. Thanks you for that !

love the way science/objective anatomy was brought into this video but in a way that was simple to comprehend how it impacts the "power" of swing.

Thanks to you for WATCHING and commenting!

I was struggling with the fade since I made my driver a little longer, but this guy fixed that in a hurry. Now it’s all long and down the middle. Thanks coach.😊

trail arm extending the thoracic spine feels very connected and powerful. great tip!

I have the privilege of working with JT and this is a phenomenal explanation and I can truly say this works great! My drives are so much better and I don’t even have these movements totally down yet!

Great video! I've seen friends do this and couldn't explain to them what they should try changing, but now I can just link them to this video!

Excellent video! Thank you both!

Really good - can’t wait to try it! Thank you!

That "right arm has to supinate" was very helpful!

This is the best video I've seen about winding up in the backswing. It feels way more powerful. I've taken countless lessons in my life, and no one has described properly how that right arm should go back.

Great video, definitely saving this one for future reference.

That explains my 200 yard drives which require 200% effort.

Huge! The number of times I've seen couches say extend your spine in the backswing (essentially standing up leaning backwards) and thought, that sounds strange. Sure they couple it with side bend so it looks reasonable but this shows it's a different move altogether. JT is brilliant and thanks for bringing him to the channel, really good.

That was great, thanks to both of you!

This was a great lesson.

“Ironman’s light” is the best tip on rotation I’ve ever heard! 👍

Need to see more from this guy. Very interesting stuff

Can't wait to try it! Thanks guys!

My swing has been terrible of late and instantly improved once I began practicing this technique. Thanks for the ideal lesson.

Super dope video, thanks!!! 🙏🦾🙏🦾

I just had to follow you bro. You put words to what ive been working on this year with amazing results with waaaay less effort for me. Great content keep it coming.

Great video. I love the anatomical discussion. JT seems like a good teacher.

Love it. Rotate and throw.

Excellent, anatomy experts are really useful

Best driver tips ever. Thanks

first video I've seen of yours and instantly subscribed. Best explanation I have seen and I understand much more now. Thank you Update: Now its the next day and I applied these fundimentals today and had such a great improvement in my drives. After my round, I didn't want to stop playing. Amazing....

Simply Really Good !

I think I did this today on the course. I just tried to really keep my lead arm off my chest with a good rotation and getting my right elbow a little higher. I piped one, effortlessly, almost 300! I am usually around 250-260. I couldn’t replicate it the rest of the day. I hadn’t seen this video until now but I think what he is describing is what I did. I will definitely have to play around with some of the concepts here.

@5:55 you gotta get loaded was epic 🪢➰🪢➰

bringing the left arm over the pectoral & right elbow over the seam gives me a deep back swing. . Thanks

I am a 63 years old that is fighting for more distance. Two years ago I was at 200 yards total with my driver. I am up to around 240 yards now. I am not very flexible at all. I always feel bound up and struggle to get more speed. I can hit balls at my house. After seeing this lesson with Micah, I hit my 3 hybrid, and I could not believe what I felt for speed. I swear it would go father than my normal 3 wood (I really can't tell as I am hitting into a woods). They were smoked down the middle and steaight. Then I hit my 50 degree wedge. Same thing. I can't remember the last time I felt compression like that. I hit them as far as my normal pitching wedge. Again, I could not believe the speed. I usually hit too deep of a divot and fat. This divot was thin with ball first contact. I hit 4 balls and they were all in a 7 foot circle. So excited to try this again. I only had a few minutes last night. Thanks for this posting video

15:48 LOL😂 great tips, ta

Excellent! He's absolutely correct.

For me and my swing, the best driver video ive seen. Especially the visual of what a bad swing looks like compared to a correct one. Key take away for me:- - the release of the lead arm scapula when lead arm shaping above pec in back swing. - keeping the mid to upper back rounded during back swing. Feels so much more natural. Awesome video😁👍

Another good one!!

Amazing video!

Interesting. I'll have to try these. I've been stuck at ~140 ball speed. Will be interested to see if I can pick up some MPH!

15:48 true star of the video. Lol

Best explanation of swing body mechanics ever and loved the visual of the stretch band. Just a pity I currently swing like the bad example and have been since starting golf 2 and a half years ago, despite a number of lessons!!! Great video to add to many others you have posted, some great content for all levels, no matter where you are in the golf journey.💪👍🏌️‍♀️

Awesome information!

After watching JT help Micah Morris, who already hits the ball a ton, I was intrigued. After this video, I am amazed. The future is bright for JT....and maybe my golf game :) Thank you both!

Great stuff as always, B.

Thanks!

i love skylinks! so cozy

10:39 Holy shit that looks like one of my better drives. Love JT's perspective. Thanks for bringing new coaches and experiences on the channel, Brendan!

Nice discussion.

best video ever ❤ keep it up!

Love it.

JT . MY new fave coach .

In my humble opinion my trail side scapula moving 2 to 4 inches towards my spine starts my entire body rotating to move my club to my backswing and then from there I use the power of my three right hands to twirl my club head clockwise with centrifugal force through the ball to the finish of my swing. I think that was the sling action you may have left out in this video. At age 77 I find it feels great! Cheers🥂😊👍

great tips on how to hit a long drive effortlessly.

The visuals are good. I get a bit lost with all the terms. ‘Wrong way’/‘right way’ demos are good. Love where you’re going with your channel. Feels like it’s coming together. Let’s see if it helps my game…😅 p.s. the bad drive is pretty much how mine looks and I struggle to exceed 80/85 mph club head speed…😂

Good stuff Brendon. His tips make a lot of sense. Even if he sounds like a chiropractor. 😁

A fantastic video! Don’t worry about trying to swing. Golf club - become aware of these body movement and body parts. SLINGS!!! Thank you

Top class video ❤

this is the most eye opening thing ive seen in awhile

Great video. The JD grip and rip school.

Spot on

Good to see this. I stumbled upon elements of this backswing at the driving range a few weeks ago and was hitting farther than ever with less effort. Unfortunately I let a playing partner talk me into focusing on the wrong things and I lost it. I will retry today.

I will watch this again but transition with the right arm is it a throw or an uppercut punch love this guy more please.

This was a great video.

Watched this last night and applied it today at the range....WOW, WHAT A DIFFERENCE THIS MADE!!!! I normally hit 300-320, depending on how much of a roll I get. But adding the spine extension, keeping my arm above my chest rather than on or below it, keeping the curvature in my back and lowering the tee made a HUGE difference. I feel much more in control and I felt a huge difference in the torque when I whip the ball. I didn't measure it but I know....I just know that I up'd my swing speed. The ball is going straighter than what I've been getting with my swing. This technique improved my distance, torque, speed and aim immensely. I'm going back out tomorrow just to make sure that today wasn't a fluke. I'll keep you posted...THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

Holy technical

Great video!!! One of the best I’ve seen in awhile! Very informative! 💪👍🏻

Great stuff, I’m a lefty but play right handed, I can’t throw a ball with my right arm very well at all, but I can punch great with left arm. So looking forward to really trying these moves/feels. The right arm position at the top looks like the classic Waiters tray of drinks.

Wow here I am doing drills to stop my right scalp from retracting in the back swing cause it’s so natural for me

Great videos man! Really appreciate the value you bring to the golf community. Hopefully you take this the right way, but if you could let your guest explain their thoughts before cutting them off, that would be awesome. You ask terrific questions and can understand you get excited, but you tend to either to talk past that initial question or once they get started, you interrupt them with another question / thought ☺️ PS. If you could cover the driver release in particular , that would be sweet. Much love man!

Love to see the thoughts with Irons

Love JT he’s a beast

Ah Skylinks! My old home course when I played at Lakewood High. Jamie Mulligan -- Patrick Cantlay's coach -- taught me and a bunch juniors there.

That Kyle Berkshire clip is interesting - he pretty much just stands up at the start of his swing which is counterintuitive.

Very interesting information can't wait to try it. It seems like Freddy Couples does a lot of wrong things in his backswing but obviously bombs it! Does he just drop the right elbow perfectly into the slot and supinate the right forearm or what?

Thanks! I am going to start being more mindful of loading my right arm!

Holy shit TMI

The Iron Man light analogy I can 100% get on board with. Unfortunately I don't have a PHD in Biology and most of this went way over my head.

11:25 ball NUKED!!

I’m sorry. This was amazing!!!

Good stuff, nice to hear a pro talking about rolling the right hand on the backswing, opening the club face instead of trying to hold the face square which often causes the problems he demonstrates.

If I can loose my gut I can probably do that 😂

Great stuff from JT, loved learning about what really causes spine extension in the backswing. Never really bought the S&T demonstration of spin extension and perhaps why the S&T coached player I know seems to leave so much speed on the table. Actually very surprised nothing was mentioned on GRF or the legs. JT did touch on the right leg but insufficient imo - I hear some say load the R leg and others say turn into the R leg.

My right shoulder has trouble externally rotating due to repeated dislocations. Any accommodations to this?

Wow.

Great video.... one suggestion is to refer to right and left as "lead arm.." and "trailing arm..." to help the 10% of golfers that play left handed ;-)

This was an Amazon explanation of the swing for power

also think of a rubber band, hold it vertical, and start twisting it, and after 4 or 5 twists, let go, and the rubber band with spring back ..also if you notice at the top of the back swing his right arm is parallel to the ground and, at the top of his finish, his left arm is more higher and straighter...great job..

Man we needed a drill for the downswing from him. I’m having problems throwing my right arm the right way 😔

This all makes so much sense. The problem i run into is that i play righty, but im naturally left handed. So my left hand wants to dominate my swing, and trying to have a swing thought of a throwing motion feels alien to me with my right arm. Distance isnt a problem for me, i can regularly drive it 300+. Its keeping it straight thats the problem, i feel like im cutting across the ball and i know my swing path is very heavy out to in. Probably 5-7 degrees on bad days. That left arm dominates.

What makes a good hitter of the golf ball? The Bility cousins; STAbility, MObility, FLEXIbility,,,,then Strength and finally Speed.

Does this work for woods on the fairway too? sorry; dumb question

Can we do this for Irons to?

Have you ever interviewed Jimmy Ballard? He says all this and more in 5 minutes.

I've seen a great improvement with my drives using you ideas. Should I bring my lead arm above my pec for iron shots also?

Lots of Mike Austin and Mike Dumaway in this swing style....Especially the right side contraction of the scapula

Would this be the same deal with the irons

Dude, let JT talk, he’s the expert.
