In this video I demonstrate the totally misunderstood differences between the driver swing and the iron swing that nobody understands and nobody is talking about.
This video will be your lightbulb moment that will allow you to hit starighter and longer shots with your driver and create more compression and take divots with your irons while keeping the golf ball straight.

Stuart, you have to get out of my head 😂. I’m one of those guys who can strike his irons very well but not so much my driver. It is the nemesis of my game. Now I know why. Each time you teach using science, it makes sense and I completely understand. I’ll practice releasing the driver handle sooner, when it gets to about middle of my groin. Thanks for the education and keep up the excellent work. Cheers.

Great explanation of the difference Stu. Something I struggle with because I have a restricted back swing and so even less time to unload the driver. I wouldn't call myself a good drawer of a golf ball but I find myself in a round of golf trying to feel like I'm going to try and draw it in order to get myself to get out of the pull fase earlier. Can work or can turn into straight low pulls

Found your channel last week and binge watched your videos. When I try to turn my wrists early with driver I feel like I lose a lot of speed because I have to come to an abrupt stop to flip. I guess this is natural when trying something new.

@GoodGolfCoaching 9 ай бұрын

Turning the wrists as you put it, is different to unloading the lever; make some swings with your left arm only to get the sense of what I mean. Either way, glad to have you here and thanks for subscribing! Best wishes Stu 😊

@tomt.2385 9 ай бұрын

Just returned from the range and had great results. Thank you Stu! As a 58yr old slower swing speed golfer I found it easier to feel like I am releasing the club much earlier in the downswing than you demonstrated giving more time to square the driver. The ball flew much straighter. However keeping the handle low around my body made it difficult to get high ball flight. Perhaps you can address this on a future Driver video.

I will do that indeed; I would recommend watching my “power at impact” to solve your issue though 😊

Stuart, I just rewatched a video from Jonathan Taylor explaining the physics of the swing and the handle pressure required by your hands - “the golf clubs effect on the golfer”. He does an absolutely wonderful job of explaining why handle pressure is important and when to apply it. I think you would love the video and it would help us (your students) understand the WHY and WHEN you need the pull and handle pressure. Let me know what you think

@karenschneider5035 9 ай бұрын

Hi Stuart. I think the simultaneous above and down the line views are helpful because the swing is 3 dimensional. Would it be possible to create a swing shot with a simultaneous above, down the line, and face on view. There are optical illusions in the golf swing and I think it would help illustrate what you are trying to explain.

@GoodGolfCoaching 9 ай бұрын

Hi Karen - thanks so much for the feedback. I am not sure the screen with three cameras works personally. I think two angles at one time works, three doesn’t. I tried and it’s confusing. I rotate the views and I’m all occasions I give all three views so I believe it works as is. But always happy to try three next time but I think you’ll see it really doesn’t work. Let me know any further thoughts! Best wishes Stu 😊

With the driver: Cant you just push more with your right hand when approaching the ball to make the club head speed up and catch up to your hands? Or is that to heavy for the wrists? Lika a top shot in tennis if you know what I mean? Maybe its impossible to time correctly though? Or just use a completely different technique with the driver, like owerswing it a'la Daly to get the club to start fast as hell and then have time to catch up 🙂

@GoodGolfCoaching 20 күн бұрын

The top hand (lead hand) needs to stall, the trail hand won’t be able to shift the head in the time needed due to the amount of added acceleration the trail hand would need. Hope that helps Patrick.

I can't get my head wrapped around this. I struggle often with my driver, and I have explored some of the throwing of the club head, I just can't seem to grasp how I am going to get enough club head speed with such a short pull to equate to long drives. That said I have not attempted what I think you are explaining. I will give it a go next time out. Sorry,, for some reason this is not resonating with me the way most of your stuff does. I may be a little dense today.

@GoodGolfCoaching 9 ай бұрын

I can sympathise with your fog, its not easy seeing the driver as a pull and swing club; so many golfers lose untold distance and club speed because the lack of leverage being used. I would advise hitting the range and go try, it will up your club speed and direction, let me know. Keen to hear Jason. Best wishes Stu 😊

@pastorjason4337 9 ай бұрын

Well, I went out to the range last night, and though I don't think I was hitting the ball quite as far as I was used to, I was making such solid contact. More importantly my driver transformed from my nemesis to a consistent tight little draw. Not sure I was doing exactly what you prescribed but for the very first attempt I was dumbfounded! I was really just focused on pushing back with my lead leg and pulling the club around and not down. This resulted in my lead hip being pushed more back, so not sure exactly if that was the instruction, but man this felt nice. Was night time so I am not certain on distances, but who cares, give me something I can count on any day. Sorry so long, just excited!!!! @@GoodGolfCoaching
