Lovely Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you considered - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (google it)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my work buddy after many years got cool success with it.

This video dramatically improved my irons accuracy. I was lifting the club, rather than rotating. Once I used Rick's technique, I started hitting the shots with more loft, straighter, and with more power. I keep coming back to get honed, with the video. Thanks, Rick!

Hi Rick-- this video single-handedly changed my season. I picked up the game last year and finished the year (in a snowstorm) with a 99. I was elated! My goal was to break 90 this year, and I couldn't get any closer than 94 due to inconsistent ball-striking. But today, implementing primarily the key ideas of turning hips/shoulders at the same time, and getting a little bit of wrist set, to hit confident approach irons and ended up hitting the green from 100-160 yards on almost every single hole. I ended with an 86, and I couldn't be happier. Thanks so much for simplifying the swing so that I could focus on just 2 swing thoughts and trust my swing!

Rick you are an absolute legend. As a novice getting increasingly frustrated I was so desperate I consulted KZfaq at the drive range. I stumbled across your video and you have completely and utterly reformed my swing to a point where I am now hitting ‘more’ consistently and straighter than previous. Will definitely check out your driver video also. I love the simplicity of your videos. As you stated some videos are so complex and overwhelming but yours are so clear. Many thanks Rick, have definitely subscribed.

@christopherhealy4859 7 жыл бұрын

Excellent video, the simple line that you made with reference to the club has brought my understanding together. I was an inconsistent 16 handicapper and my performance had improved through deeper understanding of the rotation that is relative to the length of the club rather than one swing for all. Thanks Rick

Rick you saved my golf game! I've been playing for 15 years I'm a 10 handicap last year I developed a mean draw/hook I could not figure out what I was doing wrong. I watched this series of videos and your video on how to stop the hook. I was practicing in my living room and I couldn't believe what I was doing wrong. My grip was terrible and I had little to no hinge in my swing and I wasn't coming around enough and I wasn't unwinding properly. I went out to the range today and I couldn't believe the change I actually was starting to hit a light fade and in the process my ball speed jumped up 12mph. I can't wait for the season to start now. You have no idea how excited I am. Thank you so much!

Unbelievably helpful! I've played for a few years now with multiple lessons and no one ever mentioned the slight wrist hinge. I was always either too around or too steep pulling up with the hands. The wrist hinge changes everything. I honestly felt like I got a cheat code to find the sweet spot and was instantly striking my irons with more consistency and power. Forever grateful to Rick.

@TheUrbanEpicure 5 жыл бұрын

Totally disagree. He doesn't elaborate on the ideal wrist angle at certain positions during the back-swing, which would give golfers valuable help during this complex movement. What angle should the forearms and the ground and the wrists and the forearms form when the club shaft is perfectly vertical? What about when the club shaft is parallel to the ground, earlier in the back-swing? 'Ever so slightly' (which looked like almost 90 degrees) doesn't really help. I also really dislike the cylinder analogy towards the end. Weight transfer is super important, he makes it sound like you shouldn't shift your weight at all. That's just plain wrong, and will severely limit your distances.

@Brandon-yf3tz 5 жыл бұрын

TheUrbanEpicure pretty much everything you asked isn’t really that relevant. There isn’t a one size fits all answer. And if you think about all those things during a swing it probably won’t go well. What he’s doing is giving more of a feeling. You want to turn, but need to hinge a little to start as well to avoid my most common mistake (pulling the club inside). His cylinder reference isn’t that bad either. Notice the visual is larger than his shoulder width, giving room for some lateral movement. You can move off the ball but you still want to feel tall and centered/balanced. Great advice for the average player. And actually quite useful for a scratch golfer like myself who tends to fall back into bad habits

@TheUrbanEpicure 5 жыл бұрын

Nonsense. Of course there is a one-size-fits-all approach - there is a CORRECT way to do it. And of course you shouldn't think about this during the swing, you're supposed to build muscle memory and do it right automatically. Useless video, omitting the most important aspects.

@johnatkinson3174 7 жыл бұрын

Great video Rick, loving the effects too! Was half expecting to see a hologram of Pete Finch at one point! One thing about the wrist hinge - I've heard many people say that setting the wrists too early can lead to you losing that angle on the downswing. Hence why many good golfers seem to have very little wrist hinge on the back swing (e.g. tiger, adam scott), not setting the wrists until the top of the swing and then increasing the angle as the club swings back down again. What are your thoughts on setting the wrist hinge later in the swing versus earlier, as you've illustrated here?

Hi Rick, Ive just found your channel and really enjoying getting back into golf. Its been 15yrs since I last played off 6 back then. Now my minds expects results that my body cant deliver.

Superior instruction - these videos have really helped me. What isn't covered in this particular video (but has been in another of Rick's videos), is the club head rotation on the backswing. I had an epiphany at the driving range yesterday, and realized I was unconsciously trying to keep the club-head square to the ball on the backswing! After realizing this, I relaxed my wrists, or I guess my arms rather (rotation axis only) and allowed the club-head to rotate as I drew back, and every shot was cleanly struck on the downswing - and a massive increase in distance. Effortless swings are now possible for me. Thank you Rick for your excellent instructional videos!
