My head literally feels dizzy. I've never had my mind blown so much! This may be the best golf advice I've ever had!

[@a.u.2035]

Brendan, I'll throw this out there, and I have heard this a lot over the years but if you learn to play as a kid, the golf club feels heavy, and you have to learn to "swing" it. When you learn as an adult, you have muscles and you want to use those to "hit" it, not "swing" it. It is a big difference in how good you can get in the game. You have to re-program yourself as an adult to embrace the "swing".

[@CamWakeGolf]

Idk about that one, I started playing at 21 I like to think I swing and don’t hit. I think it’s more about athleticism, coordination & rhythm. Rather than age. But I guess everyone is different.

[@channelson911]

[@mbrum3230]

[@scotthogangolf]

[@MM-zb9kc]

Mike is the best instructor on YT. I’ve learned more from him in the last year than anyone before and has made my ball striking and driving the best it’s ever been. Reason is because of how he talks so I can understand it. I’ve gotten in person lessons before and I was good for a few days, etc but as soon as I went a little off I couldn’t get back to what the instructor wanted because he didn’t teach me in a way I could understand it.

[@florianredecsy4997]

Unfortunately there aren’t as many good instructors around like Mike, Milo lines or Monte scheinblum just to mention a few. Yesterday on my round I accompanied our teaching pro and one of his students on the course. A hardcore slicer. Looks more like he would like to chop wood from above. He not once talked about the clubface and stuff like this in the video. He always showed that he needs to get the club straight down at around 3 o’clock (if twelve would be the ball and 9 the direction to the target) and then towards the ball together to get his club shallow. There are toooo many things I have seen from „teaching pros“ who sorry to say have got no clue on their own. Lucky we are to have internet and so access to good ones. It is just hard to figure out who you can trust and whom not. Have a nice week. And last times episode with the hand moving in (around the body, not pulling towards the body) and up! in the context with shaft lean and pressure was an eye opener for me. Sure I knew the hands work that way but never was I aware of the consequences in control and compression if you don’t do it. Have a nice day!

Malaska is a fossil. I am probably older than him so I am familiar with not only his style of teaching but also the ever present arrogance found throughout his generation of golf professionals. Like the Prima donnas you used to have deal with in so many pro shops who treat you like shit because they felt they are the lord of the manor. The newer generation of teaching pros are more knowledgeable, better educated and certainly more personable. My first golf lesson was with Homer Snead, older brother of Sam. He enjoyed ridiculing his students and many never picked up another club. I am sure many old timers would find that story endearing.

Another great vid. Mike is so kind to you. Love it at 4:13 when you put the club in your right hand. If you recall, AJ drew the clubface in your hand with a pen to show what forearm rotation is necessary to get the clubface to rotate toe past the heel. In this lesson, Mike showed you what AJ calls a "stage 2" golfer. All "good" players play the draw...until it becomes too "drawy." There is another level, according to AJ, and Mike knows how to get you there also. It's what we see on tour. I can't explain it, but they both can. It's the swivel release of TGM with a somewhat "outside to in" path. Please say thanks to Mike for these last couple of vids. Great stuff to confirm where you've been (with TGM and others). p.s. If you've watched the last couple of Zen Golf vids, he just suggested throwing out the alignment sticks. ;-)

[@robertdavis2323]

Love these videos, but the French dude (Francois) who posted earlier has a good point. Perhaps not intentional, but this video suggests that clubface controlw curvature and swing path controls start direction. Clubface controlling curvature is a half-truth, and Swing Path controlling start direction is just not true at all. Isn't that the "bad concept" type of stuff (like 5 + 5 = 11) that this video was meant to address?

The swing is not important if you know what your trying to accomplish at impact to the ball. The ball knows the impact not the swing. The golfer needs to have the feel of what a draw and a fade feels like, then the swing corrections if any are easy.

I feel like this was my first AA meeting for bad golf practice. I am guilty as charged when I hit the range. My goal is to see how hard and far I can hit the ball. I can go out and shoot a 74 one day and a 94 the next. I basically sling it and my hands hang on vs. swing it and hands control the clubface... My light bulb moment in this video is to start slow and control the things you can; grip, posture, and position.

[@wally6193]

BBG, in one of your videos Mike mentioned that most tour pros, including himself, address the ball with a slight open faced club, I think he said by a few degrees. His analogia was to a clock face of 1.5 seconds or so past the 12 mark. Could you get Mike to expand on this point of opening the face at address, he touched on it saying that the face rotates slightly when at impact or a split second after while the ball is still in contact so you need to start with a slightly open face. Thanks for the great videos.

[@pennjacksonjr.1424]

walter my instructor says the same thing. It looks open, but it’s actually not

[@aspacepigtaipei]

[@wally6193]

@@pennjacksonjr.1424 Well it's either open or it isn't. If it looks open then it is. I don't know what you are looking at when you look down on your club. I know when mine is open. I would just like Mike to go a little further into his explanation of why he mentioned that point.

[@pennjacksonjr.1424]

wally What I understand from my instructor is that because of what I was accustomed to seeing, the “new” look appeared open but if you pick the club straight up in front of you from address it shows you it’s square. I probably am not explaining it correctly but that’s how I’m “seeing” it

[@wally6193]

@@pennjacksonjr.1424 Well I'm no expert but I've been golfing for over 40 years so I think I know when my face is open or closed at address.

One thing about the range...you have a level lie and usually nice grass. On the course, 99% of the time, you have an unlevel lie and we haven't had enough practice for that stance issue.

U need a solid base motion tho. I think ppl should prax from all kinds of stances and lies though, helps educate the hands and arms on what to do.

[@francoisdesmoulins-lebeaul4273]

Great video, except Mike does, like most older golfers, confuses what swing path and face direction do control. Actually, the face does control the direction the ball starts on, and the path controls the curvature. Well, to be perfectly accurate, it's really a mix, but initial direction is 85% controlled by face... If you want to play a correct fade (starts left of target and curves back to it) you HAVE to hit it from the outside. With a face slightly opened to that path. Hitting from the inside can only ever produce draws, hooks and blocks. But as face and path are influencing one another for most player, the truth was obscured for a long time, but to really know what's going on, ask Trackman... or a physicist!

[@flipnotmyson]

[@Hi_Scoops]

‘These people don’t learn anything’. So savage. I love it

[@Somefatdude]

Good video. One point of contention: Mike, with all due respect, is wrong about start line with regards to a tour player’s fade. Most faders of the ball do not swing a few degrees to the right and fade it from there. Some do; that’s called a push fade. Most shot shapers actually start the ball a little left and it curves slight back to center. It’s a tiny pull fade. Go look at trackman numbers and shot tracers. Tiger, DJ, and Morikawa are famous for their tiny pull fades. He is correct however with regards to the range. The pros will start the ball generally only a few degrees left or right of 0* (straight). As I have mentioned previously, start line, as measured on a simulator or the stick drill, shows what your face is. Once you get the ball to start around 0* consistently, you can aim the face to the left a tiny amount and swing more left of the face to get the nice pull fade. The draw is the other way around: aim the face a tiny amount to the right and swing more right than the face for a tiny push draw. Note: to get the fade, many find it easier by moving ball position further forward so that your path will work around left. One other note, but I have already sort of addressed it above, Mike talks about curving the ball left and talks about face. Then he talks about path and start line. Both of these are wrong. The ball flight laws have already disproven this old (false) way of thinking. FACE controls START LINE. PATH controls CURVE. Assuming a solid strike. Go look at trackman’s education center on ball flight laws. In other words, if the ball starts on zero (the stick), then your face is square. If it curves left, that means you’re swinging to the right of the face. If the ball curves right, then that means you’re swinging left of your face.

[@vic_0315]

He isn’t wrong about the curving/path thing. You misheard him. You are right, face angle at impact dictates starting line; club path relative to that face angle dictates the curve, and Mike would agree with you on that 100%. He was just trying to show how to practice the push-draw, he didn’t say anything about ball flight laws or anything in that regard... In the first paragraph you wrote, the way you talked about of shaping shots, is the old text-book way to do it, but it’s actually not the most prevalent way of shaping shots on tour nowadays. Today, MOST of the guys NEVER change their path, they change the way the ball curves simply by manipulating the face angle at address, and then they adjust the starting line of the ball by turning their stance-line/target-line. In other words someone who swings in-to-out will alway swing in-to-out, and he will hit a push fade when needing to hit a fade. And someone who swings out-to-in will always swing out-to-in and he will hit a pull-draw when needing to hit a draw. Some old school guys still change curves by manipulating their path like you described, but most of them nowadays don’t use that method anymore because it’s much harder to be consistent manipulating path than changing just the face angle at address.

[@Somefatdude]

@@vic_0315 the second point you make is wrong because when you look at shot tracers and trackman data, you can clearly see that most faders of the ball start the ball left and it fades back. Same is true for the draw.

[@Somefatdude]

@@vic_0315 additionally regarding ball flight laws, I did hear him correctly. Go back to 12:02-12:35. You’ll hear him talk about face and curving the ball. Then he talks about path and getting the right start line. He has these mixed up. Go back and watch for yourself. He says the face catching up/face alignment t curves it and the path gets the start line. This is incorrect as you mentioned. Perhaps he meant what we both said, but he expressed it incorrectly.

[@ag358]

Bobby locke could hit a fade from his very very closed stance, just hit the ball, if you develop a good ball flight that travels the approximate yardage you need, stick with that. You can go very low using one particular flight on pretty much all courses.

Mike is bang on, you have to be approaching the ball from an inside path - like Mr Hogan said - hit from the inside out.... Thanks so much, this lesson is like gold..

[@anguskerr1872]

Another strange thing.....things are often not what you perceive them to be from your (the golfer's) perspective. I did the 'figure 8' drill with what I thought was a loop and swung in front of a mirror .... I was bang on plane when I thought I was swinging way from the inside and there was no loop at all...I love this series you and Mike Malaska do together ... he is just full of such insight, and he simplifies everything...This is going to take my golf to the next level....

[@rickroy4556]

[@Ken-jf1cm]

So Mike talks about the curve of the ball being determined by manipulating the club face, then the swing path determines what line the ball starts on (to the right then back to left). Is this not the exact opposite of what Trackman etc shows to be the case? ie That club FACE determines 80% of starting LINE and club PATH determines shot SHAPE? (But intuitively I bet most of us agree with Mike!)

I made that less clear...the 'right then back to left' is - a/c to Mike - swing path determining the 'starts to the right' and club face determining the 'back to left'. And that's not correct.

[@neilpidgeon6150]

This is seriously good. Easily the best and fastest way to 'find' your swing.

There are some dudes talking right next to the microphone :(

Why wouldn't you stop the shoot and relocate. Fire your director.

[@apfhugh4446]

So...you’re hitting the ball solid but it’s going right, and the thing to do is radically alter your grip, stance, and alignment? Goodbye hitting the ball solid. This type of teaching is why people don’t improve.

There is literally nothing in this video that is remotely what you just commented

[@mysb13]

Mike is always full of insight, wisdom and he is very honest with his opinion but humble at the same time. What a great teacher 👍

"These guys over here are never gonna get better." 🤣

[@danmitchell5401]

Wow. Best practice session I’ve ever had after watching this.

[@eggsmann594]

lots of useless blab here, but f'ing great insight.

[@markryanpollard]

This man doesn't just have knowledge... He has WISDOM!

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Love talking with mike

[@petermartinaitis8166]

Can't use alignment sticks on the course.

[@jimwgt]

This is excellent.

[@rickie5150]

Good information... terribly executed video. Advice: Have the sun behind the camera(you look like shadows out there), don't record other people talking in background(annoying), don't record when there is a diesel powered golf ball washer operating in the background(or whatever motorized vehicles are running in the background), and finally... maybe reshoot the video ?... you have good information and slow motion(BONUS) !!!

Golf and comedy combine 2:30

[@BlackjackCZ]

Love Malaska videos.

[@johnblynther7735]

I really like you Mike.

golf is hard to learn because the coaches always imply that the club manipulate the body instead of using the body to manipulate the club. does anyone ever heard about the scapula which is the main component of the shoulder girdle? Is there anyone ever heard about the squat down for jumping/standing up , which is the most powerful action we could make and the weight lifters apply it to lift 200 kg or more.
