This was the best tutorial on this subject I've seen.

It's like you were speaking directly to me, thank you so much for putting this out there for us!

Watched this video. What an AWESOME drill!! Played yesterday-did the driver drill before playing, sometimes while waiting on the tee-huge difference! Exponentially helpful! My first round in the 70’s up north!! Chilly yesterday too!! THATS A KEEPER! Wonderful and THANK YOU!!

👏 Great drill Michael. Will definitely put this in my practice sessions !

this is a fantastic drill, i always suffered from a out to in path and struggled to fix it until my coach gave me this drill to do. its almost an instant fix and gives you a completely different set of (correct)feels to get the path right. i always do this prior to any range session and even do it on the tee while im waiting for my turn to shoot.

Bravo Michael, I was coming over the top so much but this simple drill has helped me no end.

Michael great tip played yesterday and only swing thought was right wrist under left. Hit the ball great and I have to agree ball was zooming of club face. I had so much fun and really enjoy your channel. Thank you

Michael, I want to give you a sincere "thank you" for this video. I have been struggling with a over the top move for quite a while. As someone who is accustomed to playing to a single digit handicap, it was very frustrating to struggle trying to fix this move. This video made everything click. I realized that my swing was too upright and that my trail elbow was flying out in the downswing. Once I adjusted the swing plane and got the elbow back inside it was like magic. I played in my league last night and hit all of my fairways with my driver and only missed one green with my irons! If my putting hadn't been atrocious I might have been able to play to even par. I'm going to continue using your drills to get these new moves drilled into my muscle memory. Now I need to study up on your putting videos and try and get everything in sync. Thank you!

Been trying to break 80 more consistently after 6 months of Golfing. Haven’t played in 20 years or so before 6 months ago. After this video and the Hank Haney lesson, and with the help of my MLM I’ve fixed my slice swing path, also made a length adjustment to my longer irons. I can now get under the ball with the correct swing path and generate a 6iron strike with a tight draw 182 yards on the carry. I no longer take stupid fat divots and my practice is more consistent. Thanks Micheal. Great training videos!!!

Best explanation ever Michael!

Thanks! Great instruction!! Gonna practice this and the balance tips today 🏌🏽‍♂️ 🇺🇸 Keep em coming Coach👍🏻

Awesome video can't wait to try this Im decent with the irons but struggle with the driver

This is why Michael is one of the top teaching pros in the United States. Great content, Mr. Breed. Bravo!!!

Great visual and a very useful drill.

I can’t believe how simple yet effective this drill is. I find myself doing this on the tee box waiting for my turn and it’s such a simple feel to replicate on a real shot

Great tip and drill

Great lesson!

Great video Michael

I miss you on the Golf Channel. But then again, who needs them. I found you on KZfaq. 👏🏽👏🏽

It really works 😊

Finally understand over the top because of this video. Ty

this works for me. hitting the ball straighter and with compression. thank you

Great Tips Michael

it happens because on 18 you are dead tired and have no legs to make a good swing...those 4 beers at the turn didn't help either

Excellent drilll

great education!

At last! An understandable and simple fix!

Best ever fix and explanation on this common fault that so many amature golfers suffer from.

Bad habits are hard to break but I’m working on it,now I’m hitting a little farther with a little draw it works 👍🙏🏼🇺🇸🦅

Great tip the grip is so over looked thanks for the tip.

great stuff!

Brilliant...

I wish I had watched this video before my round earlier today. 🙂

Amazing

That's a very good drill.

Great video, I have been working all summer to try and swing from in to out to create a draw, I have been a out to in and hitting fades most of my golfing days. Now I’m 73 and wanting to gain some distance I feel the draw will help. Have you any other videos I should watch on hitting from in to out?

Brilliant

so damn funny- sound just like Al! Thanks Michael

Light bulb moment. I have terrible tennis elbow right now and struggle with swinging out to in. Wow. Good info and drill!

Great advice

Absolutely love this guy. His humour never goes a miss on me. "Get rid of the bubble on the elbow guys, your gona swim wit out it" lol. These swings are causing that tennis elbow lol

🧐thanks!

Finally training that helps me. I am hooked. Thank you

Great lesson Michael! A question. How does one overcome the feeling like I’m going to hit the ball way right and then flip the club coming from inside? I can see your shoulders are pointing way right too. Thanks, Jay

I remember Corey Pavin doing this drill, on the course during Tournament Play.

Fantastic drill but what are you hitting to go 200 yards plus..try a 7 iron with swing speed ..helps the average guy ..thanks Mike your the best!

I tried this on the range today and hit the ball very well, great contact. It forced me to use my hips and trust the swing. Felt like I was way bent over, but on video it was just a little side bend. Didn’t Ben Hogan say “you need to get in the way of the ball so you can get out of the way”?

“and take all my money from my brother” was absolutely hillarious. dudes a legend

We need a video like this for the opposite effect. My problem is that I come from the inside a little too much and want my club to start finishing a little more left after impact.

I like this drill but I wonder why you didnt talk about part of the problem which is the lack of club depth at the top of your back swing. Its alot easier to shallow the club if you make a better shoulder turn and get the arm angle lower and more off the back shoulder. You can see very clearly a different hand position in the first video vs the second video.

Good

After 13 years away from golf and multiple shoulder surgeries I struggle with external rotation of my right shoulder, I'm right handed, but I bought some second hand clubs a couple of months ago to try and get back into golf. As a consequence of my lack of rotation I end with a chicken wing at the top of my back swing and I've been coming over the top, all the time with every club, despite having lessons with a local PGA professional. I'd also watched endless videos on here about how to stop coming over the top, all to no avail. Then I found your video, it's been like a light bulb moment, the explanation of keeping my right forearm below the left on my downswing was something I could relate to. I went to the driving range last night and suddenly I'm striking the ball much closer to how I used to all those years ago, thank you.👍

if a golfer learns to swing up on the down swing would it help to square the face and influence a in to out swing path?

Michael, I believe I am getting my swing path going out to the right, but I'm not consistently generating much left sidespin. Any suggestions?

Love your shirt. do you sell them & how can I buy it?

Best tip ever from someone who sings over the top

2010-2017 mizuno mp-5 player 8 handicapper. Neck surgery in 2018 now trying to get my swing back. This is as simple as it gets. Thank you! To those of you who know someone spending $100+/hr, show them this video and they will think you walk on water lol

Idk if this helps anyone else out there, but just use a mirror to look at yourself to see where your club line is. A lot easier cause you can just look at yourself, correct your position, and feel that new spot. It'll feel awkward at first but eventually you feel comfortable. I hit over the top naturally so my trick is that I tell myself to hit inside because what feels like I'm hitting inside the club line to me is actually me hitting the ball to the club line. Find your feel 🤘

Most noticeable @5:50 are your wrist conditions to compare shaft position at parallel. With more extension in your trail wrist, the club would fall on the inside.

Why do I lose my distance when I try to stop coming over the ball

Makes my swing feel more like im skipping a rock. Feels great thanks

Is it possible to do this with Driver?

I wish I had seen this lesson 10 years ago.

Here's what nobody talks about. 40 years of muscle memory will NOT LET ME come inside. The worst part is I cannot feel it. I've tried every drill I've seen and as soon as I get to the top my hands start moving forward but I simply cannot feel it. I have tried to completely stop my swing at the top but sure enough, my first move is out and down with my hands. It will take me 10,000 swings to fix and change the myelin in my brains and that's fine but I have to start with one and so far I can't get one swing. The worst part is I'm a pretty good athlete, have fast twitch still, I'm in great shape and know the golf swing. My grip, set up and takeaway are all perfect but my brain takes over at the top so for me it is not physical it is mental and that's the worst part. I've played for 30 years but I will quit if I can't get to my full potential.

Most difficult part of this for high handicappers is not getting below the plane, but then squaring the club face and not dipping once they've dropped the head below the shaft line.

what club was that Michael?

I try to imagine the forearm underneath but feel my club face is wide open , any ideas

does this apply to pitching wedge and gap wedge too ?

I know the Michael Breed doesn't answer these things, but why don't you use the elbow plane instead of the shaft plane?

Liked your drill of trailing arm move,ent! I did not like your comment that “it’s easy”.. For folks who have been hitting outside to inside for a while this is going to take some practice. Don’t over simplify!

Check out Bradley Hughes 4:30 swing path KZfaq video. He explains this well…

Over the top, under the top, how to be on plane during the downswing then?

He mentions the bubble as I'm icing my tennis elbow ....

This is my issue big time! Flying right elbow causes over the top and inconsistent shots. Easier said than done keeping the right elbow from flying.

Great, you just cured Sam Snead and hale Irwin among many.

Listen to this dude you'll end up like a fuckin pretzel

Right forearm under left forearm, got it

If you will not tell what to do with the club head at the impact your advice will always ends up with a terrible slice or push to right!

Michael, If the goal is to shallow the club in the downswing, why not not start with a shallow backswing? Please help me understand. I’m a beginner.

It's so hard to fix it😢

should mention hand path

More swings and slow it down

2:40

I have watched a lot of these videos, and they just go to further giving u a million things to think about. Therefore, causing u to hit another bad shot

Can you show face on angle as well in the future

Where’s his rubber ducky?

I dig holes 8 out of 10 swings for 2 years

"Look i'm rory mcilroy"

part of what I find so annoying about coaching (generally, not limited to Michael) is the use of terms like "coming over the top, hitting outside in, opening the face, hitting on the way up, etc" I'd be just the same if my coach only spoke Vietnamese.

“I want under the top”

they teach us to duff it and then they call us duffers. and, they never do what they tell us to do.

Ah man chunk chicken wing

Who’s your daddy? 6:07… sorry, I had too.

What's the hurry? Chill dude

Lets go Brandon

That's not what over the top looks like.

I don't understand why instruction is sooo focused on coming over the top, when so many players I know struggle coming UNDER the plane in an excessively shallow angle of attack. Under the plane is infinitely worse because the ground can come into play,; fat shots. And you have a 2 way miss; a block or a over-cooked draw. But here we go again, another GolfDigest type of "Stop Coming Over the Top" article.

Nobody swings like your first swing. I watch people at the range all day and that is not one of them. I get your point, but next time just let someone who doesn’t know how to swing a club be your example.

Michael really is the best golf instructor, and look how much fun he has doing it...🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️🤗 Btw, this drill works. It takes repeat practice, but once the muscle memory kicks in, no more over-the-top.👍
