--------------------------------------------------
In this video, we're going to show you how you can stop hitting pulls.
This is one of the most frustrating shots in the entire game, but it's also one of the most common shots that we see amateur golf players make aside from slicing the ball or hitting it fat.
We're going to show you how much damage this shot can cause & how you can keep it out of your golf game!

[@petrusbierman7503]

Hi guys I started watching your u tube videos 2 weeks ago and a new world of instruction opened up for me.I have studied the game for 50+ years and your clear instruction based on 3d is the best I have seen.Keep up your great work.

[@stuartduncan9213]

I am 64 and been a LONG time over-the-top-pull-hook culprit. I watched this video and played 2 rounds and played some of my best drives and longer iron shots ever. I play off 6 and have a good short game/putting but have fought left misses for the past 5-6 years. These video tips are brilliant....many thanks. Your videos and explanations are fantastic....much appreciated.

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

wow thats great!!!

[@michaelbrinkman3187]

I've been pulling the freakin' ball for, I don't know, forever!!! Going to try this. I was always taught to pull the grip to the ball or a little outside the ball. Never heard the hands should be steep and the club shallows. If this works, I'll be one happy son of a bean!

[@flipdawhip2573]

you guys are absolutely killing the instructional content. if you are ever in Texas I would love to meet you two, maybe play or get a lesson.

[@JohnCunningham-o1m]

this drill and concept has helped me tremendously. My range instructor also mentioned your videos. Thanks Men

[@twisted13]

This is exactly the video I needed to see. For the last month I have been working on trying to pick up a little speed and that has created this dreadful PULL shot that I could not figure out why I was doing this. Before a started to add more speed this did not happen. This video shows what I have been doing by trying to rotate faster thus putting my heads in the wrong path. Thank you for this video, going to go try this now. Cheers✌️

[@Dreama40]

EXCELLENT LESSON!!!!!!!!!!! It fixed my pull shots, thank you SO MUCH GUYS!!!!

[@julesv2914]

Took a lesson with the guys and we didn’t cover this drill but we definitely worked on getting the club behind. This video helps explain further for me.

[@kenjones1472]

As an occasional puller of the ball, I loved this approach and will try doing it in slow motion at the range with the idea of letting the club fall before firing through. 😊Ken J.

[@carlor.s.4742]

I WATCHED THIS VIDEO FOR THE SECOND TIME & IT IS AMAZING!! I decided to try this on second last time out. Hit an amazing 6 iron & my golf partner went WOW that was really good. I said I just had an epiphany from watching this video(this one) & I think I just learned the missing link to correct my pulls. The second part was my recalling your saying we can't really "see" the takeaway in 2D as it is. So I took it what felt a little wider & did a loop at the top. I call it the Infinity sign swing!

Fellow hooker here. I went from a 3 to a 9 this year mainly because I pull almost every tee show. So frustrating and I’m on the verge of quitting golf

[@tomfletcher7625]

After trying this myself I found that pulling the my left hand down to my belt was the most useful thought. Plus not firing the left side of the body out of the way too much helps.

[@joshuabugai9725]

I want to personally thank y'all for this video. The illustrations you demonstrated with the gears models spoke volumes of how to properly direct the momentum of the club the correct way. Now I'm seeing shots on the golf course that I could only dream of.

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

Fabulous explanation and fix drills. Really enjoyed the demonstration and have already tried it in the back yard. Can't wait until driving ranges and golf courses reopen after lock-down.

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

Thanks!!!

[@halwal24]

Great drill! I’m bottoming out behind the ball and hitting them a bit thin. I know it’s due to poor weight transfer on the downswing. Trying not to fix one problem and create a new one. Thanks for sharing.

[@mikejaeger6864]

This works! The drill is perfect. After years of pulling the ball, I went to the range and tried the drill as instructed and actually hit the ball straight or with a slight fade which is a ball flight I previously could not produce. Thanks!

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

great!!

[@munzabdulla8904]

Hi Gents, Great video! However I have to ask for clarity, the words turn and rotation are used interchangeably ie demo of drill. They are are not the same, please clarify what brings the club back to square.

[@stevenwhiting8941]

A little complicated content in the beginiing but later in the video with the gears portion all made it very clear

[@prycealderson9352]

This Handpath issue for me constantly results in a pull slice since my clubface is open. A big wipe. Thanks for this video.

Thanks. Very informative. Will try this out next few range seesions

[@df3333]

Great!!!!!

[@JayTakeProfits]

Is this the same arm path for driver?

[@kevindesnayer1795]

thanks for this!!! the pull was soooo frustrating.. cause contact with the ball was so nice.. sounded nice...felt nice.. but result would be 30 yards right of target and long ( I am a lefty).. next golf technology needed would be a LEFTY button on youtube so it would flip your video around and AI would change left to right and right to left every time those words were used... ;o) thanks again from up here in Canada... hope to visit your centre some day when travel opens again!

[@Yoohoo2949]

Is using the image Snead recommended of imagining the hands in a holster at address and then returning them to that holster helpful? It just seems like if I can get the hands to return basically to the place they were at address, all will be good. Understanding that the body will have shifted that holster a bit targetward for impact.

[@robertott9925]

Amazing and clear nice work

[@philipchan1856]

Does your hands move simultaneously with your hip turns or the hands first follow by hip turn?

[@gabedotti3716]

Hips should stay rotated as you move your arms down your chest. After you lower your arms, rotate through.

[@philipchan1856]

@@gabedotti3716 thanks, mate!

[@zezann]

Really love all your videos! Thx! Finally single digit, but I am a pull drawer guilty, mostly when I am a bit tired. Coming from tennis, I feel I am doing a « buckle » in the transition. From what you said I think am doing this wrong as my left arm gets indeed closer to my chest, but is that possible to avoid given we are turning the upper boddy? Just wondering if I am doing this right or not. (I am feeling I am staying away from the body until the top of the backswing, and then getting the left arm closer to the chest while it goes down. (Closer to the chest because I turn) The two other solutions I found where to transition more into my left side, or to have the feeling to start the downswing with my arms and the rest of the body follows (I used to fire the hips to much)

[@bradlawton1236]

Simple but very effective drill

[@gregwilliams2066]

Always been one that would take hands to the ball plus stalling fans flipping with path way out to the right. How much power loss is there by not taking hands inside the ball?

[@peteruwatch2970]

If I straighten the right arm.....will that contribute to a cast? Or is that cast from the left arm angles?

Nope, the arms don’t cause a cast. The right should lower and straighten. The wrist determine the cast👍

the initial direction of the ball when it leaves the clubface

[@thomaskozar8510]

@@AthleticMotionGolf thanks for the quick answer. the term is used at the top of the backswing though....

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

@@thomaskozar8510 gotcha, it's the start direction the hands take out of the top of the swing.

[@CoIoneIPanic]

Dont stop pull hooking. Just tune it. You want a weak slice that is 100 yards shorter and equally off line?? A pull hook swing is like an engine that starts but has bad timing. A slice is an engine that just sputters and wont start. A pull hook can be turned into a draw but a slice never turns into a fade. One simple drill (holdig a towell under the right armpit) can give a bad pull hooker the feeling of correct timing. There is more correction required of course. But tuning a slice move like that is impossible. Bottom line is the golf swing PULLS the club through the strike. Allways. Teach a slicer to pull hook is the first step in their rehabilitation.

[@bloxrocks]

Same application with driver?

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

Yessir

[@bloxrocks]

Great, can't wait to get on the range and try to apply... the snap hook is killing me.

Thats what George Gankas teaches keeping your hands up and turning. It does make you pull the ball.

[@ILB]

Great GREAT video! Thanks so much for this!

[@jbran478]

I've been waiting for this one for a while! I had this issue last year and there isn't a lot of content around this issue. A majority of swing fix content is surrounded around coming over the top and slicing the ball. When I was pull hooking the ball I thought I was doing opposite of over the top and that made my swing worse. The start line is something I had to figure out and nobody has really addressed this. Great video, thanks!

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

Awesome, we hope it helps!

[@apaulmcdonough2170]

My "Bad Miss" has always been the "Pull" to "Pull Hook" as I progressed up into "Longer Clubs". I am more conscious of "getting my Hands Down" at the start of the Downswing, and while this has lessened the Severity of the "Pull" to "Pull Hook" these can still be there. In the last week or so I remembered a Freddie Couples move of "creating an Inside Loop" with the Hands and Club. I'll focus on this "Rearward Hand Path" move in my next range sessions. Thanks, Guys.

[@atomant830]

This is the secret sauce to great club path control. My moto for this is to remember the hands handles the down portion of the swing and the torso handles the around portion of the swing. Great video.

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

yes! Love it

[@Sreeve94]

Such good technical advice, but even moreso, such brilliant swing-change advice. Had a lesson today trying to fix this, and did exactly what you said. Got the 'feel' using a few drills, then went and hit balls full speed. When my coach was recording me 'feeling through' the new motion in some 30% speed practice swings before hitting, it was all good. But as soon as I went to hit the ball the old motion came in again. So yeah, really appreciate how good you guys are with the swing technically, but also in terms of habitual change!

Guys I can't stress enough how great this video is!! I have watched a million videos on how to get the club to shallow or in the slot. This is far the best and has changed my game massively! Massive respect 🙏 👏🏼

[@flipdawhip2573]

it really is amazing. I watched this a year ago, it never clicked until about a week ago. once you feel that move of hands away (corner of room) to start the downswing it all makes sense.

[@ycombine1053]

You guys are awesome. Fantastic video. Watched this right before going out to play 9. Shot a 40 (14.2 handicap). I had 3 birdie looks and 1 eagle look (putting was terrible today). I can't remember the last time I hit that many greens in regulation. I even had a shot that I had not experienced very often. I hit my pitching wedge fat, but instead of dribbling 30 yards in front of me, it was only 10-15 yards short, and went right at the target. Looking down I saw an extremely shallow, dollar bill shaped divot. Turns out I think I've been fighting this most of the last year playing golf. Going to hit the range later to solidify this feeling. Thanks fellas.

[@kevinkneeburg710]

So would a good feel be to leave your back facing the target longer in the transition to give arms time to come down?

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

that could help :)

[@acarmichaelgamiz]

Hello Guys, great content as always. Working through your swing system and watching your videos has really allowed me to understand the need to get my arms moving before I press the rotate button. At least on some slow motion swings, this has made a big difference to my ball striking. Regarding this video, however, I have a question on lead arm adduction. I have seen and read that lead arm abduction is important for a correct golf motion. When I see Shaun swing,, especially in the first drill, to my eyes, the left arm stays pinned on the chest. Given I’m not an instructor, I’m likely to have this wrong, but would really appreciate your view on this point.

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

The motion of the left arm can work down the chest but it will not be pinned to the chest... What you want to avoid is the left arm being pinned to the chest(upper and lower arm). Part of what youre seeing is the camera angle distortion also :)

[@garydavis8213]

Thanks boys!

[@billyfromla1117]

I have struggled with this for 15 years after I got rid of the slice. Just hit 100 balls and did not pull one. I did not realize I was also pulling even short pitchs, which this fixed as well. So, of course to me, your best video of all time, thanks. 9:15

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

so awesome!

[@gregcochennet385]

Nice video. I’ll give it a try. I’ve been hitting a bad pull hook with everything this year. I am so sick of it.

[@wallstreetoneil]

I would suggest in a similar fashion a slow-motion Matt Wolff golf swing, hitting a 7-iron only 110 yards with a push draw, would help 95% of golfers improve their game - I used this drill many times this last summer on the range to help every golfer that needed help. The over the top crowd, both slicers & pullers, need to do this in slow motion for about 50 balls because any attempt at speed will immediately get the handle going out until their brain gets the feel of looping the club opposite to what they usually do

[@jackmitchell268]

George g has entered the chat 😂

[@dr.danamplifiers1753]

Excellent drill. Will have to give this a go at the range. I video a LOT and have success with a hand path left and ive done it so long I can feel as though I control the face etc but everytime I watch video HARD handfuls LEFT through impact. Will give this a go. Thanks

[@InfoumusMOBB]

Thanks for the vid. There’s tons of videos on how to fix/help a slice, but very few on hooks/pull hooks. I’ve been fighting them for 6+years. And it’s more frustrating then a slice. Most golf courses cater to the slicer but definitely not someone who hooks the ball. I fight over top and get handys and close the face and it’s not pretty.

Great explanation! Could you by chance post a video with the camera angle directly behind the hands? That would help me make sure I am doing the drill correctly.

[@fonz427]

Thanks for this video! I recently developed this problem, did the drill *fanatically* and it's pretty well sorted. I noticed I can still pull it even when LM says 2 to 4 degrees inside out, so that's clubface, right? got a drill for that? Thanks again!

[@massspike]

Perfect timing...I just finished watching videos of myself doing #1 and thinking of ways to correct it. I've just been trying pull my hands down and missing the movement back piece. Can't wait to try this drill tomorrow.

[@j.mccarthy3008]

I’m going to go work on this today!! I know my club face is closed when I get to the ball thus the ball starts left. My path is out to in so I am pretty much toast!! Will see if this concept helps!

[@johnfeilmeier8465]

I’m not really a fan of you guys...but, this is best instruction I’ve ever found on how to STOP pulling shots and the effects of pulling the club (spearing) with your hands at the ball. Keeping the left arm connected to your chest is huge too. Well done guys! 😊

[@AthleticMotionGolf]

Thanks for watching! We hope it helps 😊

[@thehappygolfers]

This could legitimately be the best advice I've heard since learning golf, because the 'arm down the chest' movement is so powerful because its not only very visual and you can physically feel it as it moves down your chest. I'm practicing this right now and it's transformative. I genuinely cannot thank you two enough, youve really saved my soul. I was at a place where I wanted to quit the game I love, due to my over-the-top swing, that I couldn't fix. I'm so relieved.
