Getting my hands behind me was a miracle today at the driving range - I've looked at dozens of KZfaq videos about improving contact and eliminating slices without effect. But your advice is spot on - I can't wait for my next round of golf to try your "hands back" method of hitting better shots. Thanks!

This lesson has been extremely helpful, I never realized that my steep swing plane was the caused of so many inconsistencies. I've made adjustments, and have hit over 100 balls with a flatter swing plane- so much better. Thank you!!

Jonathan Chown - You have DRAMATICALLY improved my golf game and golf swing. I have tons more confidence in understanding and analyzing the mis-hit balls in my game, and how exactly to make permanent corrections. I truly appreciate your teaching approach as it engrains muscle memory through deep comprehension and awareness. I can’t thank you enough - you’re a terrific golf instructor. Please (PLEASE) keep the videos coming!

You did a great job explaining and demonstrating! Very much in line with what I have learned from George Gankas and have only seen improvement every aspect since I started to focus on this, leaving the hands/arms at the top and letting things just follow where I rotate to.

Yep, another good one J... I've been emulating Harris English's pre-shot routine during which he holds the bicep of his lead arm and gently turns through. Helps keep my arm close to the chest, as your vid advocates. Or something like that.

Great information on proper way to rotate during down swing!! Keep them coming PLEASE!!!! Thanks!! :-)

great tips JC- can't wait for this Canadian weather to improve so I can get to the range. Next Wed I will go to a sim and try it.

Thanx J, my question is finally answered regarding the point to start my shoulders following the hip turn. Now all I need to do is practice it. Your hitting station is really looking good.

Good stuff! Too few instructors talk about mismatched patterns in a golf swing. BTW, like the new mat and frame.

Can’t wait for the online courses!

Great Advice tips

Nice new mats : )) Thanks for sharing videos.

Great video. I recognise the mat and been thinking about purchasing it. Interested to know where or how you got that platform? Thanks.

Great vid I watched it all lol

Nice set up man. Once we move I am gonna set something like that up. That really good turf isn't cheap either. LOL

Reverse engineering the golf swing, brilliant video!

Not sure what it is but these explanations are significantly better than every other yt golf channel

Super, super video, Jonathan, my rotation has never been good, probably because I'm concentrating so hard on making good contact 😂

Congratulations for your new wooden square. Great fan of your videos. Please make some of putting .

Well done with the new mat Jc looks 100%Better one thing I can’t seem to download skillet I do what you say but no joy 👍

11:10 Proper Sequence in the downswing. This is the golden transition disassociation move. I can’t get enough of this. Any vids on this specifically? Once you get past the over the top move you brilliantly illustrate here, this is the hardest thing. We all want to hit at the ball with our arms/hands. Using the lower body to move the club but keeping the chest passive or over the ball is the beginning of great golf. As many pros and great players say, the key is using lower body rotation and not hitting, or “forgetting” about the arms. The club moves in transition but your chest or body “stays behind”, or “stays in place” or “stays in your setup spine angle”. Easy to say, hard to do. As long as the arms are “activated” or in “hit mode” and are the focus of your swing, you’re done. This is actually the cause of the over the top move as well no? I could go on lol. I am getting much better at this, but point me to any of your commentary on this specifically. I’ve used the “impact position drill” and that is helpful, but anything else short of shooting Botox in the arm muscles? Appreciate it. Love your channel.

Fantastic video 👍

Cheers John.

Hello, JC thank you for your video Another thing that has helped me is I notice that on the top of your backswing your weight is more on your trail leg and you are not keeping your right knee flexed So I start my downswing with a push of my right knee towards the ball This has improved my strike radically getting more distance and accuracy Do you think I'm on the right track From South Africa Arnie

an excellent video, one think I notice in all the examples is maintaining the bowed wrist in transition and into impact, do you have a video highlighting the importance of this?

I like the new hitting platform

Hey mate you got great videos. The ones where you ain't wearing sunnies just hit better. I feel more connected to you.

Hi j the reason I don't rotate correctly is on the down swing my club face is open , now on take away it's square top it's square half way down it's open. Please help.

Watching this makes me think how hard a golf swing is, just so much to organise and yet not think about at the same time. Think I'm going to try De La Torres and just swing the clubs 🤣

Great content once again. If I can't get my hands to my heels on the backswing with correct rotatory technique, because of poor flexibility, should I give up the game. Ha Ha Thanks!

Lower body first lower body first.....that's what I need to do. (The new mat is worth an extra 5k subscribers alone!). Thanks mate.

Hey he finally built a little spot for his mat!

Much better mat.

Can you discuss left foot flaring open as an essential part of getting open?

If you did and over the top outside in swing but kept your face open, wouldn't that be just a great shot as well? What's wrong with it?

dp you rotate your Lower body on 50 yard and in Pitches? I have a Terrible time with theses Shots,Tks Sal Patanio

A good video. A good way of utilizing this is by using the left shoulder. Down in the backswing aided by the upper arms (making sure the swing is around and not too steep. The down swing should be initiated by raising the left shoulder. By doing this your hips and torso move in the correct manner automatically. No over the top move. Concentrate on the left should (upper left part of the chest) This is the golf secret by Dr H A Murray. It works

😁👍

Kudos on getting you golf mat out of the mud.

I know you over accent to give a good visual, but when you hit the ball your downswing path is only maybe 1/2 to an 1 inch below the path of your backswing. When you give the visual you dump the head of the club below by 8 to 12 inches. This has been a problem for me - dumping the clubhead to far below the path and then flipping, fatting, skulling, etc. especially on chips.

I’m 63 and playing the best golf of my life. Staying in my posture down over the ball is key for me for power is clearing my left shoulder I snap it up and back if my spine angle stays right every follows .82 today 12 hndcp, 250 off the tee 52 is my100 club

When you use the word "rotate" it screws up so many amateur golfers. If they would just focus on posting up on the left leg (for right handers) in the downswing, they would have much more success. The "rotation" happens with the upper body rotating around to the right of the posted left leg.

tallking way to much!
