Hello! Hope you enjoyed today’s video. Can i ask what you think of the UK restrictions regards to golf opening courses? Do we think they will change ? What’s the situation where you live? let me know below 👇🏼

We have the lowest infection rates in the UK here in the South East. I believe from what i understand from my local MP that it may well end up based on the new stricter tier system whether courses will open. I can't see it happening nationally. Not until March 21st when furlough ends. I might lead to people travelling to areas to have a round though. Hopefully it'll just be back to Play Safe Stay Safe.

Cant believe theyre thinking of stopping people from playing golf again You are out in the fresh air normally keeping distance anyway why not just allow 2 or 3 balls max. That wouldnt be do bad just to keep golf open.

Golf is open and it sounds like it would even be open in tier 3????

Best video every Alex. Never imagined that rotating the shoulder as you demonstrated and bring the right elbow in and close to the body could change the swing. I outdrove by buddies who usually outdrive me with this movement. Nobody has ever taught this to me over 30 years of trying to learn the golf swing. Good stuff. Your channel is awesome.!

Alex; now I understand hands up and down exercise. You explained it backwards. The up move is required to start downswing; not down move. Once I reversed it the feel clicked in for me and I’m solid on contact with speed every time. I must be dyslexic but I got it now and it’s priceless. Thank you.

Hi Alex. So on the downswing; why not simply do 1/2 step forward with the trail foot and the complete the step as Gary Players did after he swung his clubs? After all the golf swings is a pivotal move. Isn’t it? As long as your swing was in balance you should make direct contact to the ball every single time. I know I do. Cheers

@Peter-we8iw3 жыл бұрын
This is a great video but personally I think you may be introducing too many swing thoughts that can create tension. What about concentrating on keeping your weight down and forward, moving the arms around the body while maintaining the head and lower body position in the backswing, and allowing the lower body to lead the arms in the downswing through and to the finish? This all assumes you have the right grip, alignment and posture at the start. Personally I found the biggest golf swing killer is tension which throws the swing and natural body momentum off. But of course the motions that you demonstrate are classic.

Hi Peter you are 100% correct we don’t want to many swing thoughts. I think if you can take one possibly two points from this video it will really help!
