I love your videos. It’s nice to see someone that just purely knows what they’re talking about. How each part of the swing affects the next. When I watch a lot of golf videos something is missing. You’re irons videos have changed my game forever. Can’t thank you enough

Every time I grab my fairway wood I feel like I'm standing on the deck of the Titanic.

Clay is so so so helpful. Thank u so much for doing these vids!! This is the best golf channel on KZfaq.

I've been using a 3W for 30 years and this is the best instructions on how to properly hit them. I watch this video often to get all the info Clay is putting out.

As a left handed golfer I really appreciate you using the terms "lead" and "back" for explaining hip, shoulder and arm movement instead of left and right. We are always burdened with translating the left and right. Thank you

good one clay, i first started watching you and then moved on but here i find myself again, truly the guy we all should be paying attention to.

You've helped me so much with sandwedge, driver and 3wood. Very thorough

thanks for the videos. In my opinion the best golf instructional channel on youtube. and it is not even close.

3 Wood is my best/most consistent club...but this video taught me A LOT!! Especially ball positon and keeping my eyes in BACK of the ball (sometimes I slide forward as I transfer my weight...not good). Thank you!

thousands of golf videos, this guy is above nearly all of them

The visual of pulling the left shoulder up and sround is money! Awesome video Clay-thank you.

This video is the key to good ball striking . You just explained what I’ve been searching for . Dont need to flip with the hands .Amazing thanks

Hi Clay, I've been watching you're vids through lockdown here in the UK to keep me sane lol but honestly wish I could come Stateside just to get lessons off you. such informative vids, cheers matey & stay safe.

Thank you! This is by far the best and easier instruction about the 3W that I’ve followed

Wow, can't wait to get out on the range and put this into practice. This guy has a great delivery for a tutor, already I feel more confident about my 3 wood.

Perfect video i wasnt pulling up at all this really helped me with my swing. Thanks

CLAY FOR PRESIDENT! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE AMAZING VIDEOS

Hey Clay. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for your videos I really learned things that I never paid attention to.

Love those bullet points printed out on the screen! Great visual reminders as takeaways from the video. Keep up the awesome work, Clay!

Clay ... well done! All great points that I have missed in playing. Keeping your eye slightly behind the ball when swinging your woods was an exceptional tip! I'm now a subscriber ...!

Thx clay. Been hitting down too much. But still getting some distance and hitting straight. I’ll try to get through better

Hey Clay- real good video. Easy to follow- thanks. A great investment that I've made for my golf game is a simple tripod (15 bucks) my phone fits in so I can take a video and compare to yours. Very easy to compare and see where I'm off. Thanks again

This information is exactly what I was looking for. New subscriber.

Brilliant explanation and walkthrough as always of all key elements. Your videos have helped me go from a 20 to 11.8 handicap in a few months. Big thank you from me Clay, keep up the good work. ps, only bit still having issues with is big drives....

Great explanation of lag and whip! Well done!

Brilliant explanation on everything. Thanks Gents

Excellent video, I'll give it a try tomorrow

Thank you for so much information about the swing explained so well. This is the detail that golfers need to improve their game. Practice without a understanding of what you should be doing is a waste of time......this makes me look forward to those par 5's.

Nice to see this drill. Lee Trevino used to teach the same way. So many others say you have to sweep the club. Which looses distance.

Great video; apply these techniques; they WORK!!

On the course I find myself asking “What my inCLAYnation?”. Remembering tips, after practicing drills. 75 on Par 73 from the tips yesterday… and there is much more room for improvement and consistency. Finally someone explains what I should be doing and what happens when it felt good but went weak. Didn’t think I could be more golf obsessed… I was wrong… My girl wants words with you Clay😂 .

Great video.and great explanation.thanks

Great video Clay really enjoying your Content recently subscribed 👍😀👏

one of the best explanations ive seen out there. Ive been struggling with my woods and saw a few things that "will" work. Im going to try this out tomorrow.

Very good video. Explained precisely, so that even a slow learner like me can understand. 😀

Thank you for the great tips

Very good thank you Clay

Great tip!!

Ty for a great video.

very good video... thank you

Much mahalos…..Awesome video!!!

Great video. Same for long irons.

It's simple folks , once your right elbow touches your right side then at that moment you are now hitting the ball with YOUR TURN from there till impact ..... thats all there is to it and you use that sequence FOR EVERY CLUB

I love. every video and they all work for me thanks

Great tip on hitting down on fairway wood. I didn’t know this.

I topped my fairway woods every time, so I just hit a 4 iron. I thought you had to swing up, so I stood up out of the shot every time. Now I swing down, and I have not topped it since. I`m 58 and have not broke 50 this year. I used mt 3 wood four times this week and shot a 47. My partner could not believe how well I hit it. 180 yrds every time. I feel like I am taking lessons. You provide an outstanding service for the average golfer. I feel much more confident. I can`t thank you enough.

Thank you!

These tips, especially ball position had me hitting my 3 wood 270ish with perfect ball flight. Much appreciated!!

What device do you use to record the swing speed and the yardage? Thank you.

Clay is the Best.

Clay ty great info

Man Clay, you really make it look easy. I'm an old beginner golfer who has no consistency to his swing. I sure hope these drills help. Thank you.

You nailed what I am doing wrong. Thanks for the tips.

Great advice, as always. What ball position do you recommend for a 4 or 5-iron?

Great video. Thank you.

Thanks Clay, this helped me alot! When you hit 3 wood off the tee, do you play the ball up towards your front foot or near the middle of your stance still? Thank you!

I been watching your videos for 3 years now. I was wondering if you could make videos about golf strategy. When to use the driver, how far away. When to use fairway woods. When to use hybrid how far away. What lie and what club is best. When to use wedges etc. When holfing I'm never quite sure which strategy is best. Now that I know how to swing pretty good, I need help which club and when. Thank you very much for all you do.

This was great Clay. Thanks!

Ok this makes all the sense. Is the setup the same if it is teed up off the box?

Fantastic lessons. I'm a 2 handicap and have lost my ability to hit 3 wood consistently. Cant wait to get to range and implement this. makes perfect sense and i know what I'm doing wrong. Developed a bad habit.

Well done Mr Clay. You can remove the topping of 3 woods in a jiffy. Besides you gave us many other tips that will help our golf. You speak smoothly, confidently and one gets the impression you are so accomplished and fully know your golf. That was also evident from your golf swings and changing them for educating the viewers. That requires skill and being on top of your own game. Thank you for your excellent and much needed tips. Regards

Thanks!

Great video. Not sure if there is a difference b/t hitting 3 wood and hybrid, but the left shoulder tip had me hitting my hybrid consistantly solid, straight and far. Thanks.

Good morning Clay and Q, I have a question regarding the eyes behind the ball in the 3 wood downswing. Does that same eye position apply to irons also? Thanks

Try this method and it just work I’m 85 percent consistent wi5h my fairwaywood from 15 thank you so much!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You are the best 👌

Ty Clay..

Such great content on how to smoke the 3Wood off of the deck. I typically can carry my 3W 260-270 yds with a roll out to 290 off of the tee... my goal is to do the same off of the turf. I will keep some of these tips in mind!

I’m reading that pro have shorter shafts in drivers than what I can buy off the rack. I’m 5’9” If I get fitted, will that show what length clubs I should have? Thnx

good stuff

Thank you.

Thank you Clay!!👍🏌️‍♀️

Hi there, which flightscope are you using? Would you recommend the $500 version? Thank You

Tried to push every thing down , took a divot so deep I could feel the heat from hell, dislocated my back in 5 locations, retired from golf that day.

Nice quick video on fairway woods..

Awesome lesson.. but without practice time it's very hard to take the steap angle off my 3 wood..

Good tip

Great vid guys! Does the same principle apply when hitting the ball off the tee with a wood?

Great stuff, thanks. For teeing off with a 3-wood, I'm guessing I'd want to tee it low and maybe have it slightly forward of the usual position, is that about right?

Dude standing there at the beginning looking like he's waiting for Clay to finish talking and sign his restaurant bill lol

CLAY 2020!!! 🇺🇲

do you still hit down on the ball when hitting a 3W off the tee?

Great video, learnt a lot. Thanks

I hover the club just a bit, helps stop with topping

How hard are you swinging? How hard do you grip the club?

Do you still hit down if you tee up for 3-wood?

good advice and a sensible hat, dermatologists say caps are almost useless for sun protection!

20:25 That's a powerful spreadsheet.

How should I approach a tee shot using my 3 wood? Since it is tee'd up, am I still trying to hit down on it and trying to take a divot?

The number one thing 11:46. That’s a nugget there

Hitting down the 3 wood. So should I hit it down just like iron?

I just watched this last night in passing and took your section about club head speed to the sim. Hit my 7 iron because it was what I grabbed first and went from 85 mph to 101 mph and added 15 yards. You don’t know what you don’t know.

I would totally fly to this guy so he can teach me how to beat my friends, and then THE WORLD! 🏌️‍♀️

If you examine your slow motion portion of the video you actually see that your wrists releasing through the ball are what produces the whip and NOT the pulling up of your left side. The pulling up happens after you've already hit the ball.

Thanks for the lesson, I found it very useful. However, I don't believe that, as you've stated, its the pulling upwards of the lead shoulder that releases the lag. If you freeze this video at 5:54 you will notice that at contact with the ball your lead shoulder is in fact only slightly tilted backwards and yet you've released all the lag by then. Something else is releasing the lag. Can you explain that?

The other guy reminds me of Fuji from Super Dave Osborne. 00:24

Dude, at 12:40'ish when that center mark was laid over your middle torso/crotch area, and you said one ball to the front, I nearly lost it..Haaaaaa!

Great lesson and all but the issue with us recreational golfers is that we focus so much on making good contact that we forget everything else.

Some peoples kids say to hit down on the driver too. Not to mention any names but his initials are Tom Saguto. Seems he knows what he’s talking about as you do.

Pls make slow motion when the club impact with the ball, thx
