Professional golfers from the 70’s learned how to shift weight with your Mom at the disco. That is how Gary got the last name Player and became a champion. We could all do more of this to become pure ball strikers.

I swear with yesterday's videos and todays, it's as if you've been watching my swing! These are 2 things I struggle with. When I do get a good weight shift & keep my arms relaxed, I get WAY better compression & distance. Would love some drills to go with this, but this is a great swing thought.

Love this series so far! When people say to "compress the ball", it almost seems like rotating your hips past the ball placement is key. That rotation is what I struggle with the most and it seems like I thin a lot of shots. This is a great drill, thank you.

I've been watching you for a while now and I have to say that you've gotten so much better over the years of really giving your audience one or two specific things to focus on, such as during the backswing you should feel your tush moving towards the target not away from it. We all know that if you give people too many swing thoughts it turns into a hot mess real quick.

Eric, are you somewhat backing off the stack and tilt system? Or would you still prefer stack and tilt as your primary teaching focus? Because weight shift certainly goes against stack and tilt philosophy.

@PerformanceGolfZone 7 күн бұрын

Hey! I dont have any hard and set rules (never have). I like the player to start about 50/50 or 60/40 left with an iron. Then there is a pressure shift in feet to right to about 70-80% by around lead arm parallel (note thats pressure in feet not mass of body). From there everything working forward ... Heres another good one on this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdeDrJaIvqmceIU.html

@atamagashock 13 күн бұрын

Wish I had grants swing, he makes it look so smooth and easy. I’m a pretty decent ball striker with my irons, but I definitely know I’m not consistent with my transfer. So even though I rarely have issues with my irons, I do know that I’m not always getting my full distance potential. So then I end up 10-15 yards short and rather than being pin high, I’m chipping from 10-15, unless it’s a huge green obviously

Been playing for 8 months and I consistently break 90 on a solid day. This has been my struggle. My arms are almost behind my body as I turn my hips so fast and early. I end up getting disconnected and my missing are thin shots that ruin holes. And I lock out my from leg to early leading me to almost swing up or have a bad spine angle at impact

I understand the right hip goes back on the takeaway. My problem is on the downswing when my left hip ‘slides’ to towards the target, leaving the face open to target. When I stand over the ball at address, I try to think of imaginary sticks coming out of the ground outside both my right and left foot and I am turning within the sticks on takeaway and downswing. I guess that’s wrong based on this video? Thanks.

Hey Steve! I think thats an OK thought......want to make sure you get enough TURN with that slide in downswing tho...

i had the same thoughts recently, i realised it wasnt rotating, i was shifting my weight across, and not rotating at all meaning my hands were doing all the work and the face was either wide open or a massive hook coz the hands would beat my body, i didnt realise rotating the body would help with the shaft lean at impact and squaring it up.

The way both of them got to similar ideas is night and day haha. One is very scientific the other just able to develop a set of feels to hit the ball straight often. I think the weight shift and a ton of the ideas in this are phenomenal by the way! I'd say though there was more opportunity to explore the actual feels of the shift. Grant is a great hybrid where he gives a lot of feels and technique and some of the most interesting bits were with you bouncing off feel ideas that Grant, or I never really thought about like the weight does shift very early or Grant breaking down why he likes to feel moving left into the ball vs the feeling he gets of hanging back.

No amateur can swing/strike an iron like a Tour Pro, these guys are doing a whole different sport compared to people who started Golf in their 30ies etc. or people who play two or three times a week. I am teachig Tennis lessons for adults and to be honest with the clients, I have to make clear, that they will never hit a forehand like Alcaraz or a serve like Zverev. You have to start very early to build up the muscle memories for a great technique. You can improve, but never to a Tour or Pro like level...

@treasurecollectables1046 12 күн бұрын
