THE ONLY DRIVER LESSON YOU'LL EVER NEED

[@AlexElliottGolf]

What driver are you using this season? I'm using the cobra 😍

[@josephwirtz8352]

AlexElliottGolf I quit playing golf 23 years ago, and am very strongly considering playing again. If I restart, it will have to be with a Taylormade driver from around 1996😳...I think a few things have changed since then...🧐😂

[@darrenbell6376]

Ditto changed my cobra f9 and never thought i would get rid of this but now I've got the speedzone 👌 The sz is no longer but looks so much better and forgivness is better so a win win for me

[@martinrosengren913]

Im happy with the Callaway Epic Flash. But not with my driving :P 5/10 is on point and the other five is sliced, some wors than others. Do you have a drill to remove the slice and how i get this ”power fade” people are talking about?

[@celtic_spirit]

AlexElliottGolf Cobra F9 (10.5*) took your lesson to the course today, alignment sorted and added 20-40yrds to my drives... wow..! 😃🏌️‍♂️

[@TheScott40]

AlexElliottGolf I’m using a Wilson Staff Deep Red 10.5

[@jesscostanzo9178]

This video is gold - I was having such an awful time with the driver that I'd left it in the bag for over a year until seeing this. Gave it a crack with your tips yesterday and I was bombing it 234 avg in a straight line! Having a more reliable driver definitely saved me some shots, had a couple pars because of this I'm convinced. Cheers Alex!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

no worries!! Really good to hear you have had improvements from the tips jess!!!

[@leeventurinidelgreco5691]

Alex-this is the first time I watch one of your videos and I must say! Wow o wow! Loved the one about the driver and the line up rods.. So simple it makes so much sense too! Can't wait to get out on the range to give it a go!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you Lee! Love the feedback, hope these videos will help!

[@stevefacey3033]

I tried this exact set up on the golf course today, it worked!!! Not a single bad drive today. Thanks for the tips.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

great to hear!!

[@johnsimpson6676]

Absolutely thankyou

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you Jason! Hope you looking forward to getting out Alex

[@b2bbogey735]

Great vid! One important thing is what most don't understand is that you never hit down the target line because with turn your club is left of target. You always hit it front of you and with turn the club is straight down the line it is an offline game. Use you trail arm as a bat of hell and hit in front of you. Like forehand in tennis.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

thankyou so much!!

[@drivebuddy]

So clear and smart. I watched your tip the other day about curing the slice. Worked perfectly. Thanks Alex 😊

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you buddy!

Another great video Alex. I got fitted for the new Maverik on the day the courses closed so ive only used it this week. One word, amazing club.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you! Ah nice, need to try it !

[@tedstan9734]

@@AlexElliottGolf I tried the SIM which gave up some decent numbers bit that fin on the bottom. Not for me. The Titleist TS 4 and the Cobra quite similar. The biggest surprise for me was the Ping G410. Always been a huge Ping fan but my eye just didnt fancy it. The Maverik dished up better numbers, sounded the best ( a low quiet punchy solid sound) better dispersion and looked the more compact behind the ball. Never been a massive Callaway fan but the Maverik standard is an amazing piece of kit.

[@assoc.prof.drnazrikamsahc2372]

I strictly followed your tips. Wow.. I bombed the golf ball way beyond my imagination Alex. Many times, I drove the ball much longer than my playing partners who have bigger physics. Thanks a million for your tips Alex. Will do it every single time!

Thank you so much for the feedback! i really appreciate it

Love the vid. Simple. I don't have enough confidence in my driving to get the big stick out regularly so I don't see no point in upgrading. Have the R1 TM atm. Love the simplicity of it mate. Definitely tend to over think stuff when driving.

First of your video lessons I have watched. Very impressed. Simple and easy to follow. Will take itto the course next round. Not 😨 expecting 300metre drive (71years old) but may gain some distance with accuracy.

Great video. You are really good at instruction. I am going to use your driver tips. Should help with alignment and overall set up. Thank you!👍👏

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you so much! Hope the video helps

[@mrbritvic]

Just a thought on alignment because the ball is forward of centre it is natural to turn slightly open to get the club behind the ball causing more shots left maybe set up to center but aim right to counteract the ball being forward on the swing arc -your thoughts ?-love the tips keep em coming

[@AlexElliottGolf]

i would. just try and feel as though you pin the right shoulder back

[@mrbritvic]

Will try and keep that thought next time out -thanks

I needed a $130 shaft for my old Ping I. So i whent to play it again sports in colorado last year and purchased a R1 $140! Whitch drives the ball A LOT farther then my buddy's R7! For me the phrase has always been, right where my feet were pointing. Or corrected on the down swing for the SUPER BOMB INSIDE OUT TWO FAIR WAY SLICE! Got to remember those.

wow that’s mad!! asif there was such a difference between the two

[@robertrogers36]

Hi Alex, love the simplicity in which explain your videos, and I’ve used many already. I struggle keeping my left elbow straight during my backswing, and when I try to straighten it, I tense up, become robotic, and lose distance, and get poor contact, any drills or tips for this would be great. I currently play of 9 I’m a 50 year old man with decent flexibility.would love to hear your thoughts thanks Robert.

[@rickroll9086]

Robert Rogers I’m 60 w an 11HCP, and not as slim, flexible or strong as I was....try Alex’s drill for swinging the club w your right hand while holding your right elbow w your left hand (left arm straight across body). It will give you your feeling of how to really rotate your body on the backswing (which is gentler on your body); essentially, if your body turns properly, it is a lot easier to keep your left arm straight while staying loose and relaxed. It’s another great Alex tip!

James if you are just getting into golf you should check out a sixty year old black and white video that will make a light bulb go on. It did for me.
