As I came back to golf after several years off, I had to (more or less) rebuild my swing. One of the things teaching pros were telling me is I needed to concentrate on getting my hands ahead of the ball at strike and to be hitting the ground after the ball. Sure. It was a disaster…I couldn’t get my hands ahead no matter how hard I tried to “lag”. The things they were missing was ALL the stuff you have to do to get into position to do that correctly. It was like they were telling me I needed to scoop the pasta onto the plate and then add some parm to make amazing pasta. All the of the ingredients and process of making excellent pasta was completely forgotten. It’s one of the things I love about Pete (and now you) is that you are giving us all the ingredients and how to mix the eggs and flour, etc….the end result is that my hands are in the right spots at impact as a result of doing the work before hand.

ive been playin golf since '98 n what ive discovered more than anything else is that there really is no substitute for having begun playing the game as a youngster, this actually applies to most sports. i am able to play basketball with the youngsters effectively even in my 60s bc ive played since i was 6 years old n im fundamentally sound bc of that. i played golf with a 10th grade short chubby kid a couple weeks ago who finished 3 over... unsuprisingly he had been playing since he was 5. for me fixes work for a short time then i trend back to my poorly fundamentally sound swing, it is what it is. Fortunately the short game came kinda easy for me which helps immensely. i enjoy the game and im a pretty good hacker (+11) n have learned to be happy with that n enjoy being out on the course with friends n thats what matters most to me anymore 🙂

@daviddeking2676 Жыл бұрын

One of the things I struggled with when I first started golfing was initiating the swing with my arms versus with the transition. This resulted in casting the club and leading to a terrible banana ball especially with my driver. The golf pro at the course I played at happened to be watching on the first tee one day and gave me a quick lesson after I sliced my drive into the 8th fairway. After a few range sessions, I was able to achieve a fade with my driver and quite a few more yards off the tee. Later in life, I found a golf teacher that got me drawing the ball and that is my normal ball flight now. Thanks for the great tips again!

Always good revisiting this move from someone like you who has been with Pete. Please consider a video on this incorporating the 45deg delivery position that Pete says is the only constant of good ball striking.

Great video. Not enough teachers explain the importance of ground pressure during the transition. Most focus on shallowing the club, but if your body shifts properly the club should almost automatically drop into a better position.

@scottarhart6094 Жыл бұрын

@@Y_M1967 over sold or emphasized incorrectly. Shallowing is a great concept but it’s not typically mentioned how it’s a byproduct of the entire swing. It’s not like oh I need shallowing and lag just like that. From takeaway to downswing transition and proper wrist positioning all lead to effortless shallowing and lag. I’m glad that Carter talks about the big picture.

Amazing video thanks for sharing. Just one note for all the people.. knee bent is okay on short-game, where you need more accuracy and don't need to push on the ball (pressure). Actually knee bent is much better for approach shots, look at the pros!! This lesson is gold for full iron shots.

@barking_mad6649 10 ай бұрын

FWIW.....If you watch Rory's driver swing (or irons for that matter) from the front on view, you can see his hands at the top of the downswing don't *just* drop straight down, but move down and importantly, away from the target as he turns. There's clearly resistance between his body going one way and his arms and hands being 'pushed back' the other. As someone who struggled with the feeling/idea of lowering the hands I tried maintaining the stretch across my chest and arms and felt like my hands were being pushed away from me as I re-centred and began the weight shift. That stretch gave me a much better feeling of where my hands were and enabled me to lower them correctly, rather than feeling they had to just drop whilst floating down behind me somewhere - which invariably led to them not going where they should. This idea really cant be seen from down the line drills, as you can tell if the hands are moving away from or toward the camera when they fall. It's less for shorter irons, but very prominent in longers ones and the driver. Rory video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hpmJntZ7ycvOn5s.html Cheers!

@telescope3 9 ай бұрын

At the transition it always helped for me to imagine that the lead knee and the trailing elbow (the part facing the target at address) were linked by an invisible chain or rubber-band. The downswing then commences by rotating the lead knee from 2 o'clock (right-handers) toward the target and the chain "pulling" the trailing elbow down into a proper hitting position (no casting or flipping). The imaginary chain also promotes a more unified upper/lower body action. So there's that.

Yeh brilliant. Feels are key.

@packat78 10 ай бұрын

trying to figure this out. when you are unloading on the way down, are you transferring pressure to lead side as the club is coming down, or before. Seems like in order to unload the shoulder down to the ground, that pressure would still be on the trail foot. thx.

@zporteso3493 10 ай бұрын

This is pure gold. So many, me included got this wrong. We think power and control comes from arms and back leg pushing and hips rotate. Its totally opposite. Its the shifting into lead foot and push up that gives power and control of the lowpoint. At first i couldn't grasp how on earth can i hit down on the ball while pushing up until i tried it and it felt effortless and so simple. And i hit it much more solid and way longer. This should be the first thing a new player should be taught about the golf swing.

@Judd @Andy Carter Golf what helped me greatly was in transition get the weight/pressure on both feet to 50-50 (with some knee bend in both) then from between about left arm parallel on the downswing to shaft parallel to ground (window), focus solely on standing up using ONLY your left leg. You will automatically have all your pressure and weight transfer to the left. Andy does demonstrate it here but without explicitly talking about it. See 4:50 mark. All the best!

@dougm659 Жыл бұрын

A random KZfaq video showed that the top pros’ shoulders are at an angle of 42 degrees to the ground at the top of the backswing and 52 degrees at impact! This confirms what is shown here about driving the right shoulder towards the ground and that’s where lag and hence power comes from!

Sean Clements (Wisdom in Golf) has been teaching this for 20 years. The problem with Mr Cowan's description is that breaking down the swing into separate movements can lead golfers into sequencing issues. However, Mr Clements's "club throwing" drill allows the student to learn the complete sequential movement, so they have few sequencing issues.
