Wow man… You’re REALLY trying to help us! You’re the G.O.A.T. When it comes to KZbin golf teachers. I’ve learned from them all and watched them all and lessons like these (with the visual illustrations and easy relatability) are what has made you my favorite! Keep it up man! Cheers 🍻!

Bingo. Just what I teach my students. This is a fantastic video and once you understand this concept, the golf swing becomes a lot easier and everything makes more sense. Great job, Chris.

Chris, great video the explanation was spot on and made sense to me. I struggle with a hook and realized I was to far inside the slot at parallel. This little drill has helped me tremendously! Been a subscriber for awhile now and get better using your instructions!

For someone getting back into the game while also having trailing wrist pain this is a fantastic drill to do for wrist mechanics - will help monitor what angles they are and where the strain is coming from, exactly what I was looking for thank you. - New sub

Great video as usual - love the getting into the spot - i now do that on the backswing and downswing - also love turning the club over to feel like a hammer 😊🙏🏌🏼♂️

Wow such perfect insite, my favorite is checking the position of the club face on the pump drill. If your wrist is flat or slightly bowed your off to good scores!!

Chris great video, can you please break down the next step, from the ‘zone’ to impact position?!! After videoing my swing I’ve found I’m not lifting back heel and turning my waist and hips towards target at “impact” enough. Cheers

If the game was ever made easy, no one would play. This is why they haven't increased the size or the ball in over 124 years. If the ball was as big as a basketball, I would probably never miss getting my club on the ball. With today's conventional ball, I typically have to take 7 or 8 swipes at it to make contact. When I first started it was as high as 30 swipes but I've really improved since watching this channel and can almost guarantee that within 10 swings I will hit the ball. Not to brag or anything. It just goes to show hard work pays off. One day I will hit the ball nearly every time, just like a pro. Thanks

Chris, I have one question, which is, how far apart are the alignment rods from the toe one to the outside alignment rod ? Great visual concept . Thank you!!
@migbgold3191 Жыл бұрын
Chris: Great visual with the slot "lanes" -- question for you as it relates to the longer clubs as the shaft gets longer and the swing arc gets more shallow like for driver and woods, would that "lane" that you created with the alignment sticks be angled a little more from the inside rather than parallel to the ball-to-target line? Meaning, for the longer clubs wouldn't the slot position be a little more angled slightly from the inside to avoid getting too steep especially with the longer shafted clubs?

Always practice off a tee or a broken tee even better to promote a less steep strike (swing).

You also DON’T use TWO hands to hammer a nail. So, … is the impact position mostly RIGHT hand? 🤔 Or as Ben Hogan said, “I wish I had THREE right hands” ☝🏻 I’ve been focusing on the LEFT arm (esp in the backswing), and a FLAT LEFT wrist. Should I be focusing on the EIGHT hand, as if hammering into the back of the ball?

Strangely as it is the flat surface of the hammer on a ball pein hammer is not pein thats the rounded (ball) part.

Excellent golf coaching, as always. However! Not such good hammer training. Hit a nail with a hammer on an arc and you will bend the nail every time. You DO need to hit it flat for the first few strikes to get it half way in and straight before adopting a longer arc to drive it home. Pretty unimportant really.
@xpress757810 ай бұрын
I don’t agree.The face of the right hand is the same as the club face. Based on what is being shown here the side of the hammer will be hitting the ball.
