Excellent video Alex on showing the importance of the right arm and elbow is in making a quality golf shot. By putting the right arm in in the right position in the downswing, it also puts the body in its proper tilt. Well Done Alex! Keep up the good work!

Thanks Alex. This has been my main focus this summer. I also follow Eric Cogorno on KZfaq and he also stresses this move. Its great when i see two teaching pros teaching similar swing keys as it confirms for me that I’m on the right track and makes me confident in bringing this to the course. I have struggled with forward shaft lean and ball compression, but this move combined with proper wrist hinging (which you talked about in a recent video and which Eric stresses as well) has got me back to a 3.7 index this summer. Thanks so much!

Started to actually to close my right dominant eye, leaving my left eye to stay steady on the ball and getting really great distance and accurate shots. And I will be sure to make sure it also put this in my routine.. If you are left eye dominant , you are lucky..

If I'm not mistaken, I've been winning the arm wrestle which has led to my over the top swing and caused a very weak strike of the ball. I will incorporate losing the arm wrestle and see how it goes. Thanks for the visual, Alex!

Thanks Alex, and one of your best videos. Many people never explain and demonstrate the complete motion and folks give up on this very important move. Now I better understand why Pete Cowen calls this "spinning your arm down".

This looks like Hogans pre 1950 swing when he was trying to stop hooking. Trouble with it is that the face is wide open coming in to the ball which requires huge forearm rotation and when Hogan did this He sometimes hit huge hooks since he overcooked hand action and closed the face, the thing He was trying to prevent. He changed that part of his swing and while his right arm and elbow were close to His right side He didn't lead as much as He did pre 1950. Just My opinion Alex and certainly is better than throwing the club out and over coming down. Ray

@garethhillard9923 8 ай бұрын

Great move and drill. For me it leads to the club face being open at impact. Your club face looks quite open at P6 too. Any drills to square/close the club face you could pair with this drill?

Great video again! not in the chair, I'm in the yard practicing your chipping drills haha. Alex when you do these drills and make a swing, could you put in a slow motion swing video? I try to watch everything when you swing, but of course is so quick hard to watch hands, arms, etc.

Course! Great suggestion eric

@einstu 7 ай бұрын

Excellent video that answer a lot of my questions. Thanks. The "feel' of pulling your arms into your side is obviously not what you do, the "real". However, what is the real is there a gap between the elbow and the body, i.e. is this feel done further away from the body? I sometimes feel like my right leg is in the way of the downswing, if you follow me?

@WALTERMITTIE 3 ай бұрын

I struggled with this move until I realised that it was much easier when i produced enough downward presssure on the club handle in the lower half of the swing to counterbalance the weight of the club head otherwise it felt like it was pulling my right elbow from my rib cage. I wonder if anyone else has had this experience

@markryanpollard 3 ай бұрын

Exactly right. HUGELY important move that unlocks everything for me. But must mention this needs to be combined with aggressively twisting the wrists to close the clubface. Some call it a "motorcycle move" with the hands/wrists etc (Watch viktor hovland, Dustin johnson, spieth, john rahm, morikowa etc.). otherwise this elbow move will massively open the clubface 👍. Another pitfall for me was lifting my left shoulder and arm as well while doing this. The right elbow abducts against the left arm while the left arm and left shoulder stay down

Exactly right!

Excellent Show😋👏. And next video is ?? Please🙏🙏🤭🤸."From hands loaded, releasing thru "path.." This is the most difficult one move to practice..because then right handpath goes left, over left toes..But clubhead still comes into ball on neutral path. Best Professional Regards.

Alright this poses a question for me Alex. Which arm is the powerful arm in a swing? As in do you pull with your left arm or pull down with your right? This drill looks like your power comes from your right hand but for me, I pull with my left and right is more stability. Am I backwards? Wondering because I have left shoulder pain every once in a while as a result.

@rackum44 3 ай бұрын

So @3:30 I played your swing in slow motion and man were you on perfect plane coming down? This is something I've been working on and what is your thought on the right arm? Straightening the entire way from the top continuing down through impact. Most of the time at club parallel in the down swing by hands are still too high to wear the pros. Hands are at mid thigh

@AlexElliottGolf 3 ай бұрын

Yeah that’s right, ahhh i know straightening the arm is risky as sometimes it might not always work!

@mustachemulligans9846 8 ай бұрын

I have no issues getting the movement correct but have issues not letting the club go from there to square up, leading to me glancing with a open face or hosel.

Alex. My problem is I’m so focused on driving the elbow in that I hold that angle to long and can’t extend the elbow, ie. throwing the ball down at the target line. How do I fix this?

@ericehrnsberger8298 8 ай бұрын

OK, so when you show the elbow movement, I noticed at first, your elbow is away from your body. However when you use the head cover, the elbow stays tight to the body. So am I understanding this right, that once we learn the feel, the elbow can start separating from the body for more power maybe? I'm confused on that part Alex. Could you please help me understand.

@AlexElliottGolf 8 ай бұрын

Exactly Eric, its more about starting away from the body and keeping it close as you turn, to prevent that chicken wing.

Lets see your swing at regular speed. No one has that much shaft lean at regular speed. And Pete Cowan would laugh at your right arm angle and hand position in the down swing. Ar the hip level your swing needs to close that club face so much faster then with Pete Cowan's swing
