** Full Swing Master Class HERE ** fullswingmasterclass.porzakgo...
In this video, Mike teaches you the secret to a perfect takeaway in just 3 simple movements. The Takeaway is arguably the most important element in the swing. Without proper mechanics in the takeaway, the whole swing can be misaligned and off plane. Mike goes over three simple moves: Pressure with the lead pinky, initiating with the lead shoulder and a soft/ relaxed trail elbow.

Which tip helped you out the most?? Let us know!

@dookiehowser1162 Жыл бұрын

what an awesome instructional video, I was working on something like this today. By concentrating on having my left shoulder over the ball while I'm at the top of my swing, I noticed I naturally turn the same as you're describing here. I felt more joined or closer together with my arms/elbows at the top of my swing, that along with incorporating the pinky squeeze (which I have seen before) makes a big difference. Great job Mike. I will reluctantly share this video with my fellow golfers.

'Pinky squeeze' explained/does so many things I was missing in a single tip: getting the 45deg wrist hinge early, getting clubhead higher on takeaway without coming inside too much, flattening the left wrist. I couldn't do all those things separately, superb!!

The solution for me on these two issues, along with a few others possibly, is the simple thought of where my hands need to be in proper shaft lean and exiting left. Before I take it back it’s the last check point or thought in my routine. Works like a charm for me. Everything just happens naturally when I know where my hands need to get to.

I was just discussing that pinky grip with my cousin last week. There are times I've noticed my lead pinky's grip is somewhat weak and it leads exactly to what you were saying about no leverage. I've noticed that these tend to be weaker shots and may be the recent cause of my open clubface (every other part of the swing being solid). Will definitely be more attentive to this!

Unbelievable! I am 78 years old and my game has been slipping away since I was 75. At age 72 my handicap was steady between 8-9. I could still play at 6,500 yards. Then at age 73 the slipping away started. Until 3 days ago I was saying to myself ok your playing good golf is done. I said, that is ok, I had a good run. Then I saw your video. I went out back in my yard and loosened up. Started slowly and then it happened. Solid strikes, 20-25 more distance with driver and great control. Played today and shot 83, with 2 3 putts on healing greens. This absolutely works. It gives me a few more years of competitive golf. Thanks.

What a game changing video! I’m going through a grip change and suddenly found myself taking the clubhead too far inside. Slowly learning how to properly re-hinge and this was a perfect video. As long as the trail hand stays “on top” during the takeaway, the clubhead should stay neutral/slightly closed in case the forearms get too active?
