Ben Kruper Teaches Me The Pause Swing! (Grant Horvat Teaches)

[@mcauley19]

I love how “Grant Horvat Teaches” often turns into “Grant Horvat Learns”. The fact he is humble enough to learn from those around him says a lot!

[@Johndavidson4]

As soon as I heard that Viktor Hovland was going through swing changes, I realized there is really no golfer alive that has perfected the game. Being humble and confident enough to change is a good trait to have.

[@sfodge7]

i agree Grant is always willing to learn, but this is just a gimmick with Ben...Grant's not changing a thing

[@Papablake1]

@@Johndavidson4only reason viktor is changing his swing is probably a similar reason to tiger, his back cant keep up with the amount of torque his body presents

[@scottywade9662]

I paused the video at the top of Grant’s swing to help him out :)

[@bryansloat2164]

You guys are great together. Can't wait to see more content with Ben

[@joshleech8146]

Pausing may not be the fix for everyone. But I started doing it a few months ago. It started as freeze drills. I am FLUSHING IT! I don’t do it while I play but I may start.

[@danmyers9372]

No way it would for me. I am tall and struggle with sliding hips and over the top swing path. I think I would probably hit it 100 yards right. If I even could make contact with the ball.

[@dnorm11]

Started doing it for just a week and broke 90 finally. Normally a mid 90s player. Not for everyone but felt so good to pure irons consistently for once.

[@joshleech8146]

@@danmyers9372 remember that swing “fixes” are different for everyone. Like medication.

I’m 140 years old and I invented Ben Hogan and hot dogs at the turn. I got my first fitting 10 years ago after breaking the Entwood longnose and niblick that I’ve used for over a century. I have been struggling to adapt my swing to my new metal clubs ever since. But thanks to Grant Horvat Teaches, the popular motion-picture streaming series on KZbin, my proficiency in the striking of the golf ball hath improved most substantially. The squadron with whom I partake in the game of golfing every Sunday plays for a gentlemanly wager, and it would seem that post Grant’s lesson, luck's been vibing with me, and I've started catching some dubs at the links and my crew is shook.

[@winstonsmith11]

I've gotta thank Ben for the inspiration. I've really been struggling to compress my irons lately. I tried the pause in practice today, and the very first 7 iron was the best strike I've felt in a long time. I think I'm sold. Can't wait for the weather to warm up here in the northeast so I can try it out on the course.

[@adamw9764]

The same issues that Ben mentioned about being a big draw player and getting stuck is what I suffer from when I get way too fast with my swing, I do a slight pause which brings everything back to square but not like Ben! Great video guys!

[@Rifleman0311]

I recently started doing pausing at the top, but what I like is my lower body continues moving forward during the pause. The pause at the top really loads up the power. I love it!

[@ChrisJones-yt8zp]

I had no idea that this helps you come over the top. I've always had a slightly inside pattern but I strike the ball REALLY well when I do the pause drill. This is so interesting. Thank you.

[@thejoeshow7684]

Been watching Ben for a while glad he getting the attention now!!!!!

[@joekruper8333]

Love the pause and Grant is awesome...great video. Looking forward to more videos with you guys playing together 😀👍

[@williamwhaley6556]

I watched the video you posted recently with Ben and started trying the pause. I tend to be flatter and can get too fast in my takeaway which always make me pull through the swing. Pausing has helped me slow down which has produced more consistent strikes and straighter since the pause allows my body to sync better. I may not be doing an actually pause like Ben but it feels that way which helps with my swing. Keep up the great work on this channel and your other channel, Grant. I look forward each week to watching and enjoying your videos. A SC fan.

[@ryand4940]

Great duo. Keep them coming.

[@aaronlombard3119]

I was so over the top, and this actually helped me to shallow out a bit, distance control is also way better

[@gabbygolfgirl]

Nice! 🔥 I use the pause when I start getting quick up top. It definitely works

[@MIZUNOMP60]

[@GodandBrooksFallsbears]

Thanks Ben and Grant for playing golf on KZbin so golfers like me can benefit from not only watching great golf, but learning while remembering to play to have fun, unfortunately forgot to put into practice the pause in my swing which I need to do because of lack of flexibility and a slow back swing allows my body to take its time and pausing to transition into the downswing, definitely need more practice

[@tourstagez101]

Been doing this for the last couple of weeks. I have not lost any distance and my ball striking has been more solid and consistent. I think I will stick with this for a bit.

[@stevestaynor6662]

I have to say, after seeing Ben, I've tried the pause to stop me from getting to fast. Now I play with it and I strike the ball alot more consistently. Thanks Ben

[@coreyking212]

Love these videos Grant, helping my swing a lot. :)

[@giovannioquendo6305]

Been watching Ben for a while now around when he started because of that pause and it’s good to see how big he’s gotten

[@xerodeus2337]

When I feel out of sequence I've been doing pause drills on the range, and it really does help get everything sequenced/timed up

[@cobra7282]

I honestly hit the ball so much better on the range when doing the pause drill. Maybe I should bring it to the course..

[@jacobmccain8082]

Man I love how much everyone seems to love his move. I have a similar pause and have gotten nothing but crap for it for YEARS. Maybe this'll get people off my back lol.

[@ultimatejay]

Doubt you hit it like Ben though, so continue crap coming..........

[@paulbooij7594]

When I stop at the top, i lay it off a hair, and then fire and I am getting a nice draw with this. I also have super fast hips so this lets me time things better.

[@WestCoastShamble]

You guys are my two favorite golfers to watch. I’d love to see how you’d score in a four man scramble with Luke Kwon and Fat Perez!

[@StaceyBond-h9m]

Thanks Grant! Thank you Ben! I will give this a try. My miss is a pull or hook. I never slice.

[@KRice2012]

The pause has helped me hit the ball off the tee somehow. I have been using it for the last 6 months and it works

[@temporarystranger95]

This is wild! I started pausing just last week and my ball-striking instantly improved. I haven’t captured my swing with the pause, so it’s probably just a hesitation 😂🤣. But I love the feel and will continue to work on it. I hope in three months I won’t have to think about it. Thanks, Grant!!! 👊👊

[@temporarystranger95]

@@richardbicker640 Haha. So true. The Golf Gods are sadistic SoB’s. They give you that good shot, or good feel, or good round to give you HOPE, so you will eagerly come back and play … so they can torture you again!

[@stephensmelser1141]

Fred Couples is the original creator of the pause golf swing. I still do it to this day.

[@cobra7282]

I have only used the pause as a drill on the range and it’s the best I ever strike the ball. Maybe I should bring it onto the course.

[@KNOXHOLIDAY]

Yall have a good rapport, good vibes

[@shadowassasinmitchell1297]

I am a chronic slicer, coming way over the top and also firing my hips too early. I can't break the habit, do you recommend this pause swing to help correct that? I figure the pause would give me time to sync my arms up with my lower body but now I'm not sure since Ben said he was too inside-out with his swing before trying the pause

[@ericstinnett9182]

Great video, Tiger has a video back in his younger days, Butch Harmon he’s showing how Tiger get speed and power. Thanks

[@brandondornan9524]

My story has been the same as Ben's, I struggled with tempo and getting to quick, ans pausing dramatically changed my swing for the best. I'm a far better ball striker now. But I do have a hitch now, where I have trouble pulling the trigger (starting my swing) and its really annoying.

They were called freezers and still are. Pause is another name just recently created by Ben. Nothing new, but they’re a great drill for problems going left.

[@TexasGolfer]

🤣 Grant: Did I pause?!? Grant: Did I pause?!? Grant: Did I pause?!? Good stuff man!

[@TheRoadToScratch]

It really IS hard to actually pause. I use it as a drill and as I work into my swing change now, but I really have a hard time with it

[@jacobfischer8950]

I’m curious if anyone knows Grants height and if he has extensions in his clubs? I’m just over 6’2 and play regular clubs. Wondering if it would make a huge difference to get fitted with extensions. I’m a break 90 golfer. Thanks!

[@SimonBecky-dj4bp]

I think both Grant and Ben are around 6' 4.

[@jameslaughter5183]

Grant, Maybe you should add The Pause to your practice sessions, that is if you practice, because your finish when pausing looks closer to tour pro level.

[@UraniumAtom]

For me I do the slow backswing, I find I load a lot better and don't get unbalanced.

[@matthewlaw8268]

Been doing this for the last few range sessions and really helps with separation but I wouldn’t take it to the course.

It's interesting if you slow it down - the club never stops moving at the top, never actually pauses and begins to fall slightly behind the plane.

I went out and tried it, you know when you pause you tend to keep your head down, so every ball I hit I hit it pure! so now the test is out on the golf course to see if I can do it!

I don’t think the pause will hurt someone coming over the top if it’s helping them sequence everything properly.

And Alex Smalley, who has the best good-looking -paused swing . Smalley tempo seems like he is not stoping /pausing but slow at the top. Cam Young is more like yours.

No no no no no no!!! Don't be messen with that beautiful swing Grant, you don't wanna ruin it doing silly things like this!

[@danmyers9372]

I know it works for Ben but quite honestly I don’t know most people could sequence everything with this hiccup in the middle of their swing. It certainly never worked for Charles Barkley although his pause was at a bit more of an inopportune point of the swing.

[@robertporter1143]

Ben V Charlie???!!!

[@Chris54321]

I love the channel but how to start the downswing is kind of crucial. Sorry to be salty but I am struggling with that big time.

[@mrm700]

Every player has different tendencies, so it's important to know that yours are. For someone who fires the hips a lot, trying to lead with the lower body may cause them to get ahead. So it's about knowing what you need to feel in order to provide better sequencing.
