A video that discuss weight transfer and utilizing the takeaway with other parts of the swing would help me a lot. I believe I over think this part of the swing and I end up swinging very awkward. I either focus on the hands and club face and then get to handsy or i focus to much on lower body and end up feeling very weird with my hips/ knees. Great work and thanks for all the good content!

[@StackCityCards]

Totally agree with that, timing my weight transfer is difficult for me. I tend to transfer too late. Some sort of trick on timing it better on the backswing would help.

[@garrybyrd8476]

Feel ya pain brother, past 3 rounds I'm hitting balls like rory on the range but as soon as I hit that 1st tee box my brain goes into fart mode and start overthinking all steps of my swing

[@StackCityCards]

@@garrybyrd8476 once you look at one short of a golf swing tip video it’s like never-ending from there out. Swing thoughts are like the meme of the guy with a million thoughts in his head except it’s me on a golf course 😂

[@nakakuchi_1780]

I saw a video of analyzing how scottie transfers weight during his swing on instagram maybe pga page. That visualization helped me a lot imo.

[@shadowfire_08]

are you me? 😂 same boat. have no lower body turn from Achilles tear a while ago, so it’s either all arms or way over rotate & sky hook it left

[@LitesLAB]

I would love a video showcasing several different practice drills for a range session or at home, that allow a person to go through the whole bag

[@andrewplowman5857]

This is exactly what I would need as well

[@gabbledabbler1553]

Would love to see this video be made as well “drills”. Also thank you for this video on takeaway because I can do this on my phone. Match up my camera angles and with your video have a bench mark to compare.

[@Cesar-wb9uf]

You should do one on preventing early extension. Being tall I suffer a lot from it

[@QuanNguyen-cq1ie]

I'm 5"5 and also struggle with this and humping the ball. When i try to fix it, face is wide open

[@Briburger]

I appreciate your simple techniques: low and slow!

[@samb6977]

Hey Grant! I’m a junior golfer and love your teaching channel. It’s helped me SO much!

[@jodon9512]

As someone that used to struggle with a slice, I started using the "low, slow, and to the top" swing thought which along with a stronger grip changed my swing path to in-to out and now I play a draw and hit the ball so much farther. Great video!

[@ronaldwu3561]

Next video: How to engage the lower body!

[@kevinjasinski8134]

A video that describes how the hands and wrists work in the whole swing, specifically in transition to delivery position to impact.

[@jayboek2854]

Keep these coming Grant. They're awesome. Need a video on ball then turf contact.

[@rorygallagher1026]

Hit the little ball before the big ball.

[@AlexBarbosa7]

Would love a video about weight transfer that's my biggest problem causing thin shots and fat shots

[@jjparks9263]

Quiet feet, chin down.

[@golfslump]

Such a good teach! 🔥

[@bryantkornbau4541]

Would love a video of when and how to release the club.

[@raybowles8587]

Great lesson Grant. 3 great shots too. I love your smooth swing.

[@stevengoldstein9665]

Thank you sir. Been struggling, then followed this video. Shot 78 today ( 15 handicapper).

[@juhahartikainen4530]

I have watched you from the Good Good era. You are wonderful teacher. Peter Finch and you have the skill to explain things clearly.

[@essoteric]

Grant, your explanations are so clear and precise, love it! Can you do a video explaining the concept of the backswing AFTER the takeaway? I have a nice takeaway thanks to videos like yours, but then I still find myself lifting up my arms or swinging too far 'up and inside' on the backswingl

[@gixxergarry]

wow needed this!! Been struggling with the idea of the clubhead starting outside the hands. I'm shooting 68 tomorrow now!! Thanks Grant...see next...drill to always keep the hands ahead of the club at impact...I struggle with stopping my hands at the ball and flipping.

[@simonggreen7383]

Using that on the range today has brought a lot of good stuff I’ve been hammering over the winter , thanks 🙏

[@markcrowell2727]

The video is right on-point! I've found that if I hover the club behind the ball, my first move is always straight back and not inside...it helps me from coming over the top. Great video, Grant.

[@justinsmith9851]

I did this last night at the range. and fixed my hook. Best simple lessons on KZbin no gimmicks or frills thumbs up grant carry on

[@anthonyjackson5119]

Great video!!! Very well explained. This helped me tremendously more than a lot of other videos!

[@julianurfahr4067]

loves your videos so insightful and i also like watching it because your swing and rythm are amazing

[@simonggreen7383]

Great video Grant , that’s something I’ve done with my coach all winter, would love to see one on the downswing similar to how you’ve presented this one 👍

[@martinvanburen3124]

Very Helpful - Thank You !

[@dirtydan2074]

Love what youre doing here! Thank you comrade!

[@dj_lumen7298]

love seeing a grant teaches video!

[@MichaelJessicaDeHeer]

I would love to see a video on how the legs should work in the golf swing. Any drills for creating separation in the legs and then posting up on the left leg. When I watch a video of myself, both of my knees sway forward in tandem in the downswing, and it doesn't look right. It also appears like I'm reaching the impact position in a squat position because I don't post up/straighten the left leg well.

[@LAG568]

Can't wait to try these tips out. I'm new and building a golf swing, lol, my husband just started up golfing again after quite a few years. He has helped so much with the basics and your videos are helping both of us with consistency! Thanks! For me, I love the driver which apparently I am good at, and I like putting, but both Irons and wedges are my Achilles heel. I keep either hitting the ground and its jarring through my arms or missing the ball 😂 Balance seems to be rough for me. Any tips for that would be awesome! 😊

[@Kegofwhoopass]

Can you please do a video on the setup? Ball position relative to your stance, how far back you should be, etc. for each club? Driver, fairway wood, iron, wedge. Thanks.

[@themikebentonteam]

Great explanation!

[@aidenhooson1320]

I’m off +4 and this has really helped me get going this season 👊🏼

[@codyemmons8936]

Thanks for the tips grant keep ‘em coming! Where to set ball position for every club and how far to stand back/where to grip etc. would be great

[@Nonavation]

Your teaching video is help me better at golf❤

[@vincentrominger5741]

If you have two cameras on Grant, consider doing a split screen view when he is demonstrating something. Sometimes i'ts difficult to get a good visual during the cuts. Solid content though, love learning from the channel!

[@CybekCusal]

Grant I just had a lesson and the coach told me my tempo was inconsistent and this solved many of my swing issues that I thought were something else. It's amazing how important tempo is.

[@ericstinnett9182]

Great video, I’m going to share this with my son. Thanks

[@MichaelJessicaDeHeer]

The other thing I'd love to see a video on is the transition. I noticed I hit the ball a lot better when I start the downswing with the lower body before the club reaches the top of the backswing. But it doesn't feel natural. So I'd love some drills to improve that.

[@robertshawnmitchell]

Love your instruction! Would love a very detailed setup video. Ball position, alignment, posture, spine tilt, just nerd all the way out!

[@sushantsen2626]

Would love an in person lesson!

[@coltonp9]

Hey Grant, a video that solely focuses on wrist action would be soooooo helpful!!

[@cakedupkevin]

I’m going to use these steps from now on. I’m a new golfer and slice, and it definitely comes from me drawing the club back too far inside then coming over the top to compensate.

[@andrewstephens6894]

Great tips. Thank you! I struggle with always hitting the heel of my driver instead of center of the club face. Very frustrating!

[@nkline1011]

I would like to see a video of reading greens understanding grain and all of it.

[@ericsmith6677]

im struggling with hooking my driver ive tried weaking my grip and everything so this video helped a good bit thanks for thi information

[@georgeshawnjohnson8866]

Great instruction

[@toddtanck8712]

Great video Grant and those were 3 of the prettiest ball flights KZbin has ever seen.

[@gsa8643]

Great video! Would love to have one about the famous “right elbow” 😊

[@chrispearce9224]

How to Fix the duck hook shot. I normally drive the ball great....around 275-ish carry and many times rolls out to 300-ish depending on the ground. Pretty high ball flight as well... I would say borders on too high most of the time. But when I'm doing everything right, driver is my absolute favorite club in the bag because of how consistent it is vs irons and wedges. But somewhere in each summer I develop a duck hook with the driver and can NOT stop hitting the ball from the absolute toe of the club. I use foot powder spray on the club face when I have trouble with something like this. So with all sorts of adjustments to ball position, tee height, weaken the grip, and putting tees in the ground to get more nuetral path instead of 'in too out'....I'm still hitting the toe and what looks like some major top spin on the ball. I'm talking it might fly 75-100 yards going hard left, and the spin shoots the ball down to the ground. This is driver only. All other clubs are normal...average to slightly below average. I normally score below bogey golf.

[@cjw3865]

Have you tried a shorter shaft? That'll bring to closer to the ball which changes the lie. You'll have a lot more control. I have my cut down about an inch, and it's a game changer. My miss is a hook and it's the worst. My normal shot is a cut

[@grahamkrivanek2315]

What's up Grant! Nice video, can you do a part 2 or part 3 to this? I feel like I have a solid grip, good take away, but I struggle with the transfer at the top as well as making consistent contact at the bottom. Maybe some swing thoughts at the top of the swing/transfer would help. As well as the down swing and making contact. Flat wrist, bowed wrist, swinging in to out, how much do you turn your hands over, keeping your head still, keeping your arms straight after you make contact, rotating, transfer your weight. Lots of questions, but again this video helps a lot, thanks👊

[@danielchavez85]

Working on this exact thing with my coach!

[@kencalvert4714]

An episode on to generate speed with Driver and fairway woods would be awesome.

[@TicTaxx]

Grant's swing is a thing of absolute beauty

[@wisnoee4923]

I literally just watched the old video of this topic on the good good labs channel... perfect timing thanks Grant😂

[@num1punkdrummer]

I’d love to see a video on lag and how to avoid casting the club. Love your content Grant, long time watcher.

[@deeterfly]

Great video. I would like to see more about how to initiate the down swing, and tips on follow through.

[@TravisCarie]

I think a video on different shafts and the different level of irons and drivers to help beginner golfers better understand what clubs suit their game as it develops and gets better.

[@timothymccallum9276]

Can you explain how to hit cuts, draws, fades, stingers, all the shot shaping techniques. At least all your thought processes that you go through and set up when you want to hit a certain type of shot. That would be amazing.

[@patmac104]

Good stuff man!

[@buitenwesten8444]

As a fairly new golfer, I'd love to see and hear your thoughts on topping the golfball.. All the reasons why this could happen. Love all the content, keep it up G!

[@RossBetancourt-cf5bq]

Great video. I’m about 10 months into my golf game and really struggle with releasing the club. Some pointers on a video would be awesome!

[@gregbrown5836]

I’m a fellow Arccos user and a tournament scratch golfer chasing the dream of plus territory in my 40’s. I think a video going over your data and planning your practice would be a good video.

[@user-zv9sl1ry5f]

Great videos Grant 👌 what about a video on gaining more power with having a short backswing, like a Rahm or finau?

[@visarma9673]

I’d be interested in what you thoughts were of the STOW STICK golf accessory…. It sure has made a difference in my putting movements…. The resistance band also helped out in keeping my hands out of my game… “Thank You” for your for your well explained video..

[@karimabuzeid5974]

Can you breakdown your full backswing? How do you get to the top? What are your cues after the take away?

[@Rickwynne]

Great video grant. Would love to see a video on green side rough when it’s sat down and sitting up. Those are where I lose a lot of strokes around the course. Thanks 🙏

[@marekskotarski374]

I would like to see a video about swing thoughts or how to simplify swing to not overthink each step of a it

[@Joelharper96]

A videos with weight transfer and distance you stand away from the ball with different clubs. Love you videos they help so much

[@benjamingutierrez3781]

Bro, this channel is so dope. Love the content. Lord knows my game can only benefit by understanding the swing in golf

[@user-by3ql5ey7u]

A video about what your mind is on over a shot. Overthinking, not thinking enough and key thoughts over a ball

[@MustyPirate]

such a great video, this explains my horrific slice after recording my swing I was so inside at the takeaway

[@brendanatkinson1164]

I would like to see a video on the follow through, I have a real problem with hands turning over after the ball strike which seems to steering the ball. I've tried putting a ice lolly stick down my glove on to the top part of my wrist to stop the roll over but it still happens, any advice Grant would be amazing. Cheers from Australia

[@kevinharvey9786]

A video that discusses addressing the ball with different clubs please

[@Vikingsalldayway]

id like to see a video on how to align properly i always struggle with aligment. also following thru lower to the body i always finish so high up

[@kino7037]

I started to do the Faldo Takeaway Drill and it made my takeaway damn near perfect everytime

[@KA-dm9lm]

Grant man, would love to see ball position video for various clubs with an explanation of why. I know this can vary by player but I also know that there is a “baseline” for the general area the ball should be in for stock shots for each club.

[@payasoteamhonda]

how high should be the tee position cause idk if it’s to high or to low when teeing off ❓

[@boon2neat108]

Love the teaching vids! Should the elbow of my glove hand (lead arm) be facing out towards the target. If heard this tip before but it feels unnatural and uncomfortable depending on how much I turn my arm. I also don't do it naturally and feel as if I have to think about it and force it. Any feed back on this would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

[@colttrammell9253]

You should do a video on how you shape the ball for a fade or a draw. Would be interesting hearing your style to working the ball.

[@forthelistener]

Low and slow…I needed to hear that. Thanks Grant!

[@cloudy__golf]

Would love to get some more mental/Process related teaching content.

[@ddeboy002]

Grant because you hit irons so well can you talk about width of stance and ball position for all irons. Also with that how do you hit it clean-I tend not to divot at all or very rarely and when I do my hit is terrible. If I scuff the ground I usually hit a great shot but not in line with my target.

[@gerardttan]

Great content as usual! You obviously, and arguably, have the most butter golf swing out there. Just wondering if you can tackle the different steps of the golf swing with respect to players with different heights (and other parameters such as age and flexibility)? I mentioned height because this might be easier to tackle. My question assumes club length is held constant. I believe this isn't addressed much in youtube and helps with your viewers who, like me, strive to have a swing like yours but may have different body types. Thanks Grant and team for the top tier content as usual. More power to yall!

[@tn94z]

How about a video going from the takeaway to the down swing? Maybe from the halfway point that you just got to..now discuss the left wrist (for a RH) and how to get it into position at the top, then what starts the downswing? Do you just think, turn? Or do you think arms drop first right before the turn, etc....

[@benstoddard1040]

What’s up horv! Love the videos dude! God bless

[@guillaumelessard4047]

First time watcher. I like it. I'll be trying it out tomorrow in my net. I have a qui k question. What do I "pull" my irons so much? I have a really good hit, fine distance, but always angles left, and I can't seem to fix my posture to correct it hahaha

[@Mike-uz9xm]

great vid

[@natemilleractual]

The biggest area I need to improve is reading greens. Judging power. And finding the right line. Video Grant! Video! This will help me break 80

[@mightywhitehorse6118]

I am in my 50's. You make the check points simple and not complex. Any tips on 50 yards and below?

[@channell9292]

Grant Horvat teaches... himself! :-) Really benefiting from your own lesson there!

[@garyatkins4408]

Great video Grant. I’m really struggling with the slice when it comes to using anything longer than a 7iron. Can you help?

[@nickb.237]

Years I have struggled with coming in too far on the inside, I basically set up as close as I can to the ball these days and focus on a blade of grass just on the furthest side of the ball and swing for that and I flush shots this way. But It really aggravates me that I have to focus so hard on swinging passed the ball to make good contact. I cannot get my arms to go out, they stay clenched to me on the downswing. I am not a beginner golfer either Grant, I have a 7.1 handicap and have just adapted to this swing style but I wish there was something to help me get out of it.

[@Bigdawg82423]

New here to the channel & golf (Haven’t explored the page) it would be interesting to hear how to control the power of a shot for in between distances

[@Eastmaniac]

Love the video. I think what would be helpful (for me at least) is showing/explaining the feel of what to do after you reach that checkpoint and getting it to the top. I assume there will be a different video about the transition, but checkpoint --> top of backswing would be very nice to see.

[@SupSlade]

I like this check point. Maybe another video of all the ideal check points? 17 handicap here - my biggest issues is being too flippy & scrunched while making contact and not releasing the club. Any thoughts?

[@jamesjennings8287]

would like to see the connection of the shoulders and the arms to the swing starting with the take-away

[@christianwalsh6431]

Need a video on how to stop/prevent hooking the golf ball

[@mujeebtaj]

That was such a helpful video that even Grant himself is hitting pure shots 😂

[@DrThot]

Hey Grant - not sure how doable it would be but it would be helpful with things like this to somehow have a shot from your view. The down the line view is good, but when I’m doing these drills, it’s sometimes hard to tell if I’m too much outside my hands (for example). Seeing your perspective could help that

[@ElishaBowling17]

A video on clearing the hips on the downswing

[@aaronryan852]

Bunkers are my nemesis. I put so much effort into making the bottom of my swing arc be just past the ball so I make good ball then ground contact. In a bunker I try to tell myself to hit behind the ball, but then my swing takes over and I hit the ball before I hit the sand. Good players say bunkers are easy but they are definitely the most inconsistent part of my game.
