First time I watch your content and I have saved/bookmarked this video because of how well it is explained and how much sense you make. Thanks in advance!

This was really insightful stuff. Thanks for sharing JChown!

I absolutely love your content, swing philosophy and teaching style. Your and George Gankas’ content have helped me immensely. One thing I can add as this is something I really struggled with, is to couple these drills with an emphasis on keeping width in the trail arm at the beginning of the downswing. This helps me shallow the shaft out, maintain good width and ensures that my arms don’t get “stuck”. I love feeling like I am pushing my hands away from my body as I start the downswing, which is another feel you have talked about in recent videos. Again, thanks so much for the awesome content!

Absolutely loving your videos. Thank you so much. Totally addicted to working out my over the top swing at the moment and really practicing hard. I'm also trying my best to unlearn the self taught golf swing technique that I have as a result of not taking lessons as a lad.

Outstanding video! Needed this!

Excellent. I have been fighting with the problem for so long but it was today I really understood the solution. Thanks.

The third drill, keeping the lead arm against the rod is a highly insightful and rewarding drill. This video and your video on hip rotation are both outstanding. They address common faults as you aptly illustrate. Thanks agaub,

This is pure gold. Thank you, JC!

Best golf lesson channel I have found.

This, along with early extension are my downfall in the golf swing. You have explained it so clearly, as you always do. Just watched the 5 pillars of the rotation swing, absolute diamond. Every time I go on the range this is my mantra. The only go”f coach on you tube who puts it this clearly and easily understood. Now it all makes sense. Brill.

Excellent as always my friend. I may not comment as much but be assured I am watching each and every one and give a 👍! Your instruction and drills are superior to all others out there.

Perfect video! I like the way you explained.

You nailed it perfectly!! This has been my problem.

Awesome lesson thanks!! Brilliant, my problem always

Another great lesson. I had to learn this on my own, not rushing the downswing is a key to great ball striking

Played my best golf in over 10 years after watching and practicing these drills. I haven’t played a lot of golf since my kids were born and my swing was all out sync and swinging over the top. I tried lessons and nothing really worked until I watched this video. Thank you!!!

Have struggled with this issued my entire golf life. These drills really enable the correct behavior/habit when combined. Have dealt with the frustration of hitting superb shots and then hideous followups throughout my life to the point of wanting to walk away from the game. Your explanation and corresponding drills have made a hugh impact immediately to my consistancy( direction, distance, center strike on club face). This is the best analysis and instruction on the issue I've come across. Bravo! and thank you.

Good illustration on this video. Thanks

I agree the more relaxed and slower for me gives me the best strikes. The last 3 rounds have been my best scores ever! Thanks for your help! I’m happy to see more subscribers!

This is the perfect drill for me . I’m so grateful you shared it . Thanks I was about to give up this game .

Just brilliant, you must be psychic, you addressed exactly my swing issue, LOVE the drills, Your Pal, Dan

Great video. Subscribed!

Great video. I think hips first and it helps tremendously. I don't have to worry about arms. They seem to fall into place naturally. So much easier

Great tip, especially with the alignment stick under the trail arm!

Thanks ❤️

I am hopeless with drills and get bored senseless practising BUT the slow arms in the downswing and relaxed arms throughout the swing is excellent advice for an early extender like me. If I employ this I feel like I can clear my left hip first and the arms come after, especially when combined with some secondary spine tilt at address. Excellent video and the conclusion I had also reached in recent rounds. The ball goes further with slower and slack arms. It's just having the faith not to change your mind at the top that is critical!

JC, u r spot on.

Can't wait to try this at the range tomorrow!

This was great

Great stuff, when I do a step drill , I always have “ more time” to hit the ball, another way of sequence training. The feeling of more time must in reality be fractions of a second, but it makes a huge difference.

I love this drill. It has helped me with early extension and getting stuck. Thanks for sharing again!

Your stuff deserves a wider audience. Cheers

Good lesson

Hey jchown! I noticed with your downswing how close your hands are to your body. You are also swinging up. I finally had a young 20ish year old guy point out to me today that I may have been doing wrong for 43 years. He told me you don’t come around with your swing to the golf ball, but up and thru the ball. Hands and arms close to the body on the downswing. Then I was able to get a finish just like the guys on tv. Highest I think I have ever hit the ball with my driver. Not sure if you have any videos of the proper way to swing the driver or not, but just wanted to add what I had learned today from a young guy who has for sure a 100mph golf swing with the driver. Thanks.

Another great video and I enjoyed seeing that stick drill - not seen it before. Think it will help me as I tend to use arms too much and not enough of the body to start downswing. Can you do a video on combating the shanks as well, as that is creeping into my game and is really soul destroying - particularly when trying to play half wedge shots from 50-80 yards! 😫😫

This video was a revelation. Wow. I've been struggling with path for years, saw this video, drilled it and shot 10 strokes better the following round. Unbelievable, thank you sir!

Fantastic drill

Great tip 👌 Thanks 👍

Hi the drill with alignment stick has helped me slow down my swing only trouble is every now and then I fail to move the hips and pull the ball to the left when out on the golf course

Great information. The arms have to slow down, in order to release the clubhead. Conversely : if the arms are moving slowly, like in float loading, it's easy to rotate to quickly in the downswing, whereby the arms get stuck behind. Slow arms require a slow pivot until P7, when all "hell" let's loose!!!

Excellent...

Thanks JC for another great vid and drills. one question, will this cure the bad habit of casting the club? how do I know when to release the club towards the ball?

Excellent

As a slow rotator, even as a +2 handicap, I prefer this method. Guys like Tony Luczak and Mike Bender promote arms first and busy arm golf swings. That might work for some, but this suits my swing better

love your videos! Question: do you think a towel wrapped across your chest would also work well for drill 2? seems like that might also promote keeping arms connected too?

Major that was so well explained. No Bullshit. Just one note. Was watching Paddy Harrighton video and he said if you don't learn the proper grip then all lessons online like thus one don't apply to you. You have to build the swing around the grip. My apologies for the user name. My daughter is on evert device we have. Hahaha. Subed and 👍

Can’t wait to try the stick drill. Fast arms has been a fault of mine.

If I had a trainer like you in my area, I would definitely already be at hcp 10

great drills they really helped me , thank you....

I seem to find "falling" in to out whilst feeling a little bit of trail shoulder external rotation automatically leaves my arms "up there". Cracking video, mate...

Super important

that has been my problem for years...still can't fix it. will try this, thx mate.

Nice sweater. Where'd you get that from?

Does it have to be resistive bands that have a give or can it be something less flexible like a TRX? Thanks

Would you share the dimensions of your hitting cage, and where did you find it?

Again, I repeat, the 3rd drill, alignmentt rod under the right arm truly develops the 3rd pahse of the swing , fully releasing the club through impact Outstanding video

Thank you so much for this video! I have always noticed that my hips didn’t start the swing like most pros. From the top of the swing, my hand path would be straight downward. I have been trying to deliberately move my hands outward toward the ball. I admit that that has improved my swing but I still think it is incorrect. Do you do remote swing evaluations?

That rubber rope thing - where do you get it?

👍💯Good..

This is probably my biggest problem. And like you said my body keeps having my innately lift so I can hit. So I really have to practice letting my arms be more loose.

How is the weight shift and transference please?

It took years for me to learn that the golf swing does not really involve swinging the arms as much as you need to move the lower body and the hands, arms and club will follow. But it's critical to have a wrist hinge and soft hands. No death grip on the club.

Nice

Can i ask.. what net and mat setup?

Cool looking shoes dude

mike bender has a different approach, and so far I tried his idea, it works.

Off topic but... Any way you can send me the model number on that Jumper you're wearing?

this is 100% the reason for my early extension, I seem to do this alot more with my irons compared to woods and driver is this a common thing?

What confuses the situation is that some say back to the ball and drop arms and others like yourself say leave em hanging and turn.. 2 kinds of swing .. Any thoughts on this ?

My feel for this: left arm staying long, relaxed and across my chest as the downswing begins.

😁👍

This is a fault of mine that I’m struggling to remove !

But if your body moves well, the arms/hands must move faster than your body. The hands are on the outer circle and have farther to travel than the inner circle of the body. Early extension or standing up is usually due to golfers stopping the body rotation and the arms and hands keeping going. The body rotation should start the arms moving not only in the down swing but also the back swing.

This will only work for people that are very flexible and can separate. If you can’t and you try this your shoulders will fire with your hips causing a horrible over the top swing!

If you can fight the urge to bury your clubhead into the turf, and allow your lead arm to fall; in a tension-free fashion, the acceleration will come naturally at the bottom of the swing arc. Work on the finish; rather than the strike, you big ox.

just wrong. Gears shows your arms must stay ahead of the hip rotating coming down.

Sorry, but this is word salad. The truth is so much simpler: If you (1) concentrate on keeping your GRIP PRESSURE baby-bird light and primarily controlled by the index fingers and thumbs, and, (2) you commit to COMPLETING YOUR BACKSWING by truly shifting your weight to the right side while turning your back to the target, the correct downswing sequence will be automatic. The body won't be able to do anything else. Truly shift and turn onto your right side and try to start your downswing without first turning and shifting back to the left. You can't do it. Keep the grip baby-bird light and try to have the hands and arms take over the downswing. You can't do it. The only other key you need to ingrain is to feel that the hands are still in front of you at the completion of your backswing, not wrapped around you. That means you have actually shifted and turned around your right leg in the backswing. Give as much slack as necessary with your left side to do it.
