Paul is the only pro teacher on the internet who constantly hammers on the only facet of the golf swing that must precede everything else. Without this one element, the rest doesn't matter. With it you have a chance to become a good golfer. I'm almost 84 and having a ball. Thank you, Mr. Wilson!

I like that you take time to slowly explain everything without mumbling super fast 😊

Paul ALL of your videos are SUPERB. When I go to Vegas which I do quite often I am booking a lesson with you. Your tips are incredibly amazing and have penetrated my head unlike many others I watch on KZfaq, the rest are like: "3 easy steps to fix your driver": Then they go about 20 different things for 30+ mins... Forget about it... SHOULDERS AND HIPS! LETS GOOOOO!

I recommend everyone get the BODY SWING book and practice guides. A really well done instructional classic.

Butter 🧈 arms. Great swing thought. 🏌️‍♂️

This guy is amazing. Paul is on a mission to improve the life for all golf players . Thought that I would share my personal experiences from practicing what he teaches. Note, however, that I am a mediocre golf player; hovering above 90. I may have misunderstood his teachings, and all the errors in this post are on my part I’ve now been practicing for about 6 weeks. I saw clear improvements after 1 week. During the last couple of weeks I have hit some of the best shots of my life. When I get this right, the feeling is that I turn towards the target and that the club just follows along. I realize that I have never before managed to relaxed the club freely. So much speed is achieved by just allowing the club to release. I am now teaching my wrists a new pattern of movement. The great thing about this is that I can do it at home. I’ve had a few setbacks. This usually happens when I focus on something new, and I forgot some other basic component. But it only takes 1-2 days of practice to get me back on track. I have a history of upper back (and shoulder) pain. This is actually a result of over excessive practice at the range. Sadly though, my history of excessive practice did not do much good for my golf. Now I can play a round of golf without having pain the next day. I get in trouble when I try to put in extra effort and put extra pressure on the ball. Then I revert to old habits (trying the help the ball with my arms and upper body). It really takes focus to trust the swing and allowing the arms to be powerless. I get the best results when I am thinking about hitting with 60-70% of my max effort (and usually I still get the same distance). I love that Paul is so consistent in his teaching, but still finds new ways of conveying his message. From having the feeling that I black out during my swing I am starting to consciously notice what happens in my back swing, release and follow through. Paul is a master of explaining how the swing should feel like and what to observe. It makes the feedback loop so much easier and faster. I am not a very skilled golfer. Practicing what Paul teaches, my immediate target is to break 90. If I can do it (with my limited talent), this is proof enough for me that Paul’s method works for anyone out there.

Senior new golfer and this tip is very helpful. Learning to relax and swing more smoothly has been a challenge.

Love your effortless painfree style of tuition. Keep these great tips coming Paul

Hi Paul, it’s your old friend TEX. Thanks for another great video. I was an ‘arm hitter’ for 50 years and you helped me enjoy the game more by FINALLY using peerless arms and loose wrists. Hope to see you on my next trip to Bears Best.

Great video and explanation of the body swing. I’ll definitely try this method for one or two buckets of balls. Thanks for the video.

Thanks Paul. It works!

Yesterday, I committed to a bucket of balls,first swinging the handle,then the head to hit each ball. I’ve got to tell you, I was pleasantly surprised at the ease with which each ball was struck. Every now and then I would “grab “ the club as I was about to make contact and the result was not as good as simply turning my arms off all the way through to the finish. Arms off, effortless distance and accuracy. Thank you Paul…!👍🏽

great video. thank you!

This is similar to the first golf video I ever invested in, Bob Mann’s Automatic Golf. However his leg movement was more lateral and the right hand was basically getting a free ride through the swing with mostly all the gripping pressure in the last 3 fingers of the left hand which gives you a nice hinge in the wrists. Turning the right hip now helps me immensely from hitting those ugly blocks to the right! Thanks Paul

Thanks Paul I have been trying to use my body now for a couple of weeks now & what a difference!! I feel less tiered and my golf swing has really improved 🙏

Very grateful to Paul for this insight. When I relaxed my arms and adopted the touch the knees drill to engage lower body, the effect was a dramatic improvement. Swing plane improved, slice disappeared and more fairways found - made game so much more enjoyable..

Hi Paul, Love the way you teach. Not only that it's all relevant to the way l learn. Only just found your method and it's helping me so much. I'm enjoying working through your video's The only thing l wish l could do is transport those gorgeous blue sky's to England. Keep your tips coming, thanks Paul...

Good stuff Paul!!! Hit 70 % fairways hit on Sunday thx to you!! Keep up the great work for us hacks!!!

Effortless golf swing I've ever seen , smooth and consistent , 🤞 I could get 50% of that hopefully 😁 Dave co Donegal 🇮🇪

Thanks for the excellent lesson Paul. Love how you're about making it as easy as possible. You are hilarious at 4:29, flopping all over the place😆😆

Great stuff as usual Paul. I still refer to your Swing Machine Book that I purchased back in 2002. Constant forward tilt, rotation and unrestricted hinge. It took me a long time to switch off my hands and arms since that was how I started the club back for years. Now as soon as both shoulders begin to turn the club moves with them. The arms and hands are now linkage only. It took me a while to trust this, since hands and arms are things we use actively everyday. Best part of your instruction is that when my game goes bad I have you to blame 😉. LoL

I started taking golf seriously about a month ago. After my first trips to the range my right elbow and back was in terrible pain. I never felt pain in my elbow like that before and I've played tennis for years. My friends said "it's just your muscle fibers getting used to the swing everyone goes through that." I discovered this KZfaq channel and hit about 250 balls today, no pain at all. I also hit the ball better. I'm still working on my "belt buckle" turn, club head speed and balance but I'll get it. Thanks for all you do Paul.

Can see three decades of this mans life across all his promo materials 😉Love your work Paul just teasing!

Paul, Best explanation of your swing concept ever!!! When I had my lesson with you I could only hit my driver about 190 yards (sometimes less). Now I am consistently hitting driver 225 (and sometimes a little farther). Thank you so much for your help!!

I have to laugh at the pros who say you don't hit the ball with your body...they don't get that those arms will swing faster if you turn them off. Thanks for all your videos Paul!

Paul just started watching your videos. Already seeing improvement in my game! A quick question. When you talk about moving your head back over your right foot do you rotate the head or is this a lateral movement of the body to get weight on your right leg? Thanks for the great videos!!

Game changer. For long time arm hitters the conversion is slow but worthwhile.

works every time when you do it right

Thank to you...some people have literally called my golf swing 'effort less' 🤣🤣. No joke.

Will try this but i have a question. To start the backswing do i move my hips first and the club follows or do i move hips and club at same time ?

Paul Wilson, I got a bone to pick with you buddy. This daggum "loose swing/loose wrists" thing....is dumb. HOW does it work. Im 54 with 2 bad knees and Im hitting the ball harder (into my back yard setup) than maybe ever while doing this. I hit a few drivers so hard it scared me, dropped down to my 8i just to see, and.....WHACK! What a beautiful feel and sound!!!

Great stuff Paul, I've been chopping wood, as my son tells me for thirty years, just got the body to lead and what a difference. My question is do you think of keeping left wrist flat at top of back swing.

Any thoughts on why I seem to pull my short irons and how I can fix it? Any drills to practice? Thanks....

I’m a bit confused. In a previous tip in 2020 (how to hit solid golf shots, all pros do this) you mentioned we should finish our shots in a slight angle but I don’t see the same happening in this video. Is this tip for beginners?. Thank you for taking the time to teach us how to be better golfers.

👏👏👏👍

Hi Paul great video. Few questions I would like to ask is looking at your videos I don’t see much width in your backswing. Your arms aren’t extended. My golf coach has been working on getting wide. Also I have been tilting my shoulders instead of turning which has affected my swing for a number of years. This is a problem as lots of teaching is focused on turning your shoulders down towards the ball/ ground. This had added a problem of me tilting not turning. Once I started turning I realised that as I am in a tilt at set up it’d taken care of automatically. I actually feel I’m turning level to the ground. Your thoughts on wrists angles at the top as well. Appreciate your thoughts and advice on these Thanks Leon

Dang, I don’t wear a belt. Haha, no this really works I have been doing this for a couple of weeks since watching this and it’s been working out. Thanks Paul.

First! PW GOAT 🐐 of trainers

Paul, can you do some videos on course management/strategy for an 18 hole round of golf to get lower scores for those who are just starting out with the powerless arms swing? I've been hitting my driver and long irons really straight off the tee and right on target with this powerless arms system (really straight compared to my old strong grip swing!). And my second shots are also almost always ones that I'm very happy with (my 3 wood has really benefited from the "don't try to kill it; just think 50%" mindset!) which is a great feeling! But... I can't seem to be able to finish the job and land on the green on my next shot no matter what I do. It's super frustrating to be anywhere from 70 -115 yards away from the green, hit what looks like a perfect shot, only to see it land way short. Seeing this happen time after time, I've tried clubbing up only for the same thing to happen... still short. Sometimes I'll go 2-3 clubs up to compensate but then I end up 20 yards long as expected. When I try to turn faster with my SW, PW, 9 and 8 irons they're either still short (it's as if they just refuse to make it to the green like they're protesting!) or are off target and miss the green left or right. This kind of thing has added 1-2 strokes to each hole since those too short to hit the green shots usually leave me in tougher spots to chip and in a bad mindset for my putts. I two and three putt much more often than I one putt so I'm playing bogey and double bogey golf right now (even seeing teh dreaded snowmen 8s on occasion!) which just isn't my goal. I went from playing in the low 90s on average (80s on really good days) in the past to not even breaking 100 a couple of times this year. My old swing (strong grip) had all my clubs going about 10 yards apart from each other (but they weren't going as straight and far as I wanted which is why I switched to trying powerless arms; now they're straighter but shorter which was only half the goal). Right now my distances are about 20 yards shorter than with my old swing but what's even worse is that there are bigger yardage gaps between clubs. THAT seems to be my main problem: not being able to hit to certain distances. My 8 iron is currently only going 120 yards, my 9 iron 110, my PW about 80-90, and my SW (the most inconsistent distance club of all) goes anywhere from only 30 to 70 yards depending on how fast I turn and/or how bad the muddy grass conditions are here in the midwest (sometimes my SW just goes right under the ball and through the muddy grass like butter in the fairway as if it's in a bunker where it just pops up and splashes which would be great in a bunker but horrible in a fairway). This means that I don't currently have clubs that get me consistently onto the green from 75-85 yards in or from 95-115 yards in which is kind of important. I will sometimes just say forget it at those distances and do my old half swings with a 7-9 and hope they roll onto the green which isn't ideal but has a much more consistent success rate currently than my full powerless arms swing with my SW and PW. But I don't really want to do that since those are "feel" and "guess" shots. I'm just not having as much fun as I should hitting two great shots in a row each new hole because I'm then unable to land on the green on my next shot when I should be able to since I consistently hit 2 good shots in a row to start each hole so I should be able to hit 3 good shots in a row. But nope. I'm finishing holes with way too many double bogeys where I'll say, "I didn't even think I hit any bad shots on that hole except for one that went too short" which means it's almost always a missing yardage club problem versus hitting bad shots (even my chips aren't bad but some of my short pitches stop dead just on the edge of the greens when they do finally land; and I see way too many first putts also being short resulting in some 3 putts). My playing partners meantime are spraying their balls left and right and even chunking and shanking some shots but they're ending up with lower scores overall than I am because they can get on the green in fewer shots albeit from the left and right instead of from in the fairway like me. They often say, "really?!!" when I tell them what score I got on a hole because they only saw nice shots from me but then they will remember "oh, yeah you did hit that one pitch shot super short". It's just sooooo frustrating. Any advice you can give those of us who are hitting the ball well but who are lacking certain distances with our clubs (for some strange reason) and who are paying the price with higher scores would be appreciated. I'm trying super hard to keep my head up but it's not easy when I'm the one in my golf gang working on my swing like crazy while my playing partners are just wacking away chicken wing style yet shooting better scores than I am. Arrrrrggh.

I know that but if I have a couple holes not good I make unnecessary changes and get worse so I picture in mind what you say and I get back on line golfers overthink and make corrections that are not good I think you I think smooth

Hi Paul, a quick question about this type of swing. If I'm doing this properly, should I be feeling the weight of the clubhead pulling me thru after impact? I'm asking because I haven't hit any balls with this yet. Only swinging in my house. For me, this seems like a grip pressure issue. When I really soften my pressure at the top of the swing & just let my body bring the club down like you say, it feels totally different. The weight of the clubhead pulls me through the shot. I hope I can do this with a ball in front of me. It's easy when there's no ball there. Thanks.

I started to do this today was hitting the ball well at the range today.. noticed I needed to have a slight pause at the top.. helped me stay loose and effortless.. does this make any sense??

You can “feel” what he’s attempting to relate to you. That’s not easy to do!👍

Is it normal for the club face to be all over the place in the beginning? My swing speed was up to about 105 (Driver) but face was erratic.

I like to pull the left hip back for my downswing

As u r turning hips in downswing, u r carrying the arms too i can see in slow motion. Arms can never lack behind hips they will be stuck like Tiger woods used to have this problem earlier. Arms has to catch up with hips. It is a sequence where on front foot u transfer the weight first then arms drops and hips rotates last.

Nice easy 280 yard drive in the fairway. Unfortunately wasnt my fairway. When i get loose, use the body, throw the hips seems to be high percentage of straight dead left drives…..haha

When u fire your lower body, arm has to move down but when?

Please tell when arms comes down during hips rotation?

Even when I try to turn off my arms and just swing easy, my arms still say “buckle up, Jack! We’re swinging for the record books!”

Do you have any clinics coming up????.

Taking more for me than a bucket or two.

After I play golf, my forearms hurt, now it makes sense that I’m just using my arms

Sounds good cause my arms aren't working

But our arms are apart of our body..

I have been watching all your videos very closely and I noticed what u r saying and doing are two different swing. U r doing correctly but not saying correctly,

Quite the Chatty Cathy -Two shots in 10 minutes .. 10 minutes I'll never get back .. normally I like your videos but this one was an epic waste of my time. More action less talk would be more helpful and appreciated
