BEST GOLF DRILL TO LOOSEN UP YOUR ARMS FOR AN EFFORTLESS GOLF SWING

[@georgenicolai455]

Paul, I went from an 18 handicap to a 10 this season, all by taking tips from your videos... thank you!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. That's some major improvement. I love it.

[@12496k]

3:10 5:40 6:50 ish golden! Paul, an updated video on this subject with full motion and effort shots would be extremely informational! Thinking the drill can be expanded into a stand on it's on playable action; especially for older and limited range of motion players!!! Thank you

[@paulwilsongolf]

Some I hit some some I don't. Just depends if I remember.

[@donschmidt8203]

I have seen some excellent teachers on you tube but you are the benchmark for instruction. Common sense ideas imparted in a simple way. Your swing looks ridiculously easy and you hit it a mile. That is why sam snead played better longer than anyone else. These are the best easiest concepts I've ever seen.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Sam was the man for sure. Simple move that lasted for ever. Why wouldn't everyone want that?

[@rlmonson]

Hi Paul. I followed your advice and gave this approach a valid try. It was far more challenging than I first thought. After about 1/2 a bucket I realized my impulse to hit was very strong in the downswing, particularly from last parallel to the ball. Once I realized this and kept my wrists loose through impact WOW what an epiphany. I discovered that if I focused more on staying behind the ball with my head and less on locking up my arms and wrists to “crush” it, the ball rocketed with seemingly no effort. I still revert back to bad habits and tense up occasionally but simply rotating my hips more efficiently and maintaining loose wrists gets me center face contact and excellent ball flight. It was very windy today (in my face) so I didn’t concern myself with distance but rather staying loose and smooth. Game changer, thank you. I’ll continue to follow you and look forward to more content but as for me and my playing partners, they can figure it out themselves while I shoot lower scores by staying in the fairway. Thanks Paul, I’m off to a good start I think.

[@paulwilsongolf]

This is tricky at first especially if you are really tight. Glad you fought through it and see the result of loosening up. Stick to this drill for a while until you know for a fact you are not going back to your old swing. Great job.

[@rlmonson]

The ear to ear drill started it all for me. I just happened to have my launch monitor set up and I did the ear to ear drill forgetting the launch monitor was there. It read 93mph swing speed with my 6 iron. I usually max out at about 87-88. I thought it was a misread. Kept doing the drill and was consistently 90-94 the rest of my practice session. It seems counterintuitive to me but ball flight, center contact and increased distance tells the truth. Unbelievable. Can’t thank you enough!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Ear to ear drill is huge. This unlocks the wrists but you need to do it daily for 30 days. You are already seeing the results so it shouldn't be too hard to convince you to keep doing it. Keep me posted.

[@Ay3rs]

The way you describe the "lock-up" is so accurate. Happened to me today on back nine, major tension. Looking forward to the drill!

[@paulwilsongolf]

This is a great one. Need to keep doing it for at least 10 mins. I tell people this and what do they do ... they don't do it and go right back to whacking away at it. Mindboggling. This drill has helped tons of my students go from hitting it nowhere to way longer than they every have. Stick with it and you will get the same result.

[@MrGramede]

Thanks, thanks and thanks again!!!! Your tips are golf life savers!!!! I enjoy them tremendously and watch them time and again.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad to help and glad you are doing well. Thanks for the support. I appreciiate it.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.

[@johnnygriffith2838]

Thanks Paul. I was the guy using my arms and going nowhere. Keeping my arms out of the swing, I gained distance and accuracy and the guys in my league are saying what have you changed you are hammering the ball!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Good stuff. This is what I want to hear. Great feeling. You know your on track when your buddies perk up. Keep at it.

[@briannapier7679]

Great tip for taking arms out of the swing! I'm gonna start doing this drill immediately!

[@bak3rwigg3rskat3r]

Hi Paul. As someone who learned golf as an adult, your tips and overall teaching approach has been a breath of fresh air for me. While I’m in my 20’s, I have always described myself as a tight/never loose player, which has made golf a very frustrating sport for me. Additionally, I was a baseball/tennis player, which has left the feeling of reacting & hitting a ball engrained in my athletic approach. I’m in the process of breaking my swing down to the basics, with the goal of permanently applying the approach of “stop trying to hit the ball”. I’ve recently fully committed to the tips in your videos, as it's now clear that most of my instructors have completely underestimated the tightness & heavy use of arms in my swing. With that said…..I'd like share my recent experience/struggles with this drill because I am definitely……one of the EXTREME cases you mentioned. I went out to the range this week and “Touched the Neck” for an entire bucket of balls. After about 10 balls, I had the loose feeling you described. I only focused on turning my body and having my belt facing left of the target when finished. I started with a wedge, and moved up to an 8 iron, as my confidence with this drill & loose feel was increasing. I could actually feel the weight of the club as I turned through, and could trust that the club would follow, all while keeping my arms “dead” (and the ball was going straight!). I left the range with so much excitement, as I finally had this feeling of separating my arms from my lower body. Then the next day came…….. The next day I went out to the range again (mistake #1), with the same excitement carried over from the day prior. I thought, “today I’m going to try and move up to driver & maybe even work on full swings.” After about 5 balls, I realized…..I had completely lost this feeling of not using my arms in the golf swing. It was insane how fast this feeling disappeared & how I couldn’t get it back (I couldn’t even get the feel back doing basic practice swings, as my arms were literally activating every time I turned through my swing). I sat at the range for 2 hours touching the neck with a simple wedge & could not turn my arms off no matter how hard I tried. It’s almost like my body was revolting against me for how many years I’ve been using all arms with no legs/hips. I was even letting go of the club at times, desperately trying to find this feeling again. It’s brutal because I know how groundbreaking this loose arms feeling is for my golf game…..but my last range session was so frustrating that I’m scared to get out there and look for it again. Any tips for getting out of a rut like this? (It’s almost like I don’t trust that loose feeling anymore). Is there something else I can focus on to try and get that loose feeling back? You’re the best. -Will

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you are starting to get it. We all have set backs. This is due to human nature. When this happens you flip the club upside down again to get the feeling and you start at 50% speed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6jXgWp3rdWHa5Y kzbin.info/www/bejne/mX_LeqyenpZmbKc kzbin.info/www/bejne/naa2mWd4aamAbsU kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWSQaImlbLehjNU This is why you lose it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKaye6uslJdlfs0

i want to tell u.. i have been watching your vids for 2 straight weeks.... these are great for the common man golfer, i cant tell u how much i appreciate these .. im trying to implement all of your content.. its fantastic.. you are making a big difference in my golf game

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks so much. I keep it simple so people will understand and do it or at least try to do it. I know there is a lot of complicated stuff out there. Make this complicated and you will never do it.

[@user-kf8qc7cx4n]

Now I know it’s OK to watch Paul’s videos over and over. This one with resting it on your shoulder caused an epiphany. I was try my best to keep my lead arm straight. By breaking it and resting the club on my shoulders finally is getting me to relax my arms. 😱

[@raimundocalderonriestra2358]

Estupendo vídeo, es usted el mejor profesor de golf que he conocido. Muchas gracias.

You're welcome.

[@stephenmccarthy8783]

Paul thank you for you video instructions. I can’t wait to try this drill. I tried in the house and I feel so much more relaxed already. Love the videos.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Practice swings is the best way to learn. Now apply the very same feeling to the ball.

[@DydLike]

Paul, I'm not the guy you're talking about but it might as well been me. In the 1.5years that I've been playing I have never even done a full backswing, I'm always doing like 70% backswing with 0 hinge. I just watched this tip and for the first time I'm doing a full swing and it feels amazing! This works amazingly, together with the other videos you've recommended the other day. Charl

[@paulwilsongolf]

Yeah, I call the short backswing a young players swing. I can hit great shots doing a short swing but it takes every ounce of energy I have. If I go closer to parallel I can swing at 80% which doesn't hurt my body. Stick with the longer swing. It should only take a couple of weeks to get used to it. Then you will never look back.

[@Gabe00723]

After watching Paul’s videos I am able to hit my irons way better. My driver has increased 15 yards. I try to do all the drills because so far they have worked. Thank you Paul.

[@paulwilsongolf]

That's great. Glad you are improving. Stick with it and do daily practice swings at home. This is the fastest way to get it.

[@youtubehandyman951]

I had a round this morning, and watched this video before getting to the course. On the the range I felt loose and relax and warmed up well, but for some reason I was pull hooking them from the tee today. Not extremely bad, but missing fairways left. I shot a 90 , still haven’t broke into 80’s but I’m consistently better since watching your videos. Thanks, keep the vids coming!

[@paulwilsongolf]

If you are hooking without trying to hook it your grip was too strong. Strong grip + loose wrists = hook Check your grip here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIK9faNul6tgjdk

[@rodneynewton7031]

Paul I have been hitting my driver left and right when I look at your KZbin videos about gripping it light and using your hips on the range today my drives were pure all I think about is light and use hips I have a nice follow through now amazing Paul thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. It's great when I clicks. Keep up the good work.

[@kenmergenthaler7148]

I have been watching your videos for at least two months, taking it to the range, I feel like I have a Gumby swing now, loose arms . flexibility is better, I feel like my back is not getting the torture like it used to, then the ball goes farther than I have seen it in a long time. It’s amazing! I am really working on my accuracy now and it’s slowly coming together nicely, thank you

[@paulwilsongolf]

Looser is better for sure. You are starting to see it. There is no way you would even want to go back to swinging hard now. Sounds like you are on track. Just be aware that you don't want floppy arms although it may feel like that at first. Powerless arms. Stay focused and try to make the positions perfect.

[@joelwesley2639]

Great drill. Didn’t know I could hit a ball this way. It’s really helping me loosen up my arms through the shot and get more easy lag and whipping power. Thanks!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Now keep feeling this into the future.

[@trpe71]

This drill is obviously made for me as the swing you describe in this vid is me, no lag straight wrists all upper body. I am a 9 and cant wait to see what happens to my game when I don't have a messy, jerky, short swing. Thanks Paul!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Let us know how you did. Stay loose.

[@fruhulda]

This is really a good tip. I have just bought my first driver after being playing golf on and off for 30 years. I do get tensed when trying to use the driver with the shiny white ball. This helps me to get that loose feeling. Thank you, Paul!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. You need to watch this one too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKaye6uslJdlfs0

[@RoastChestnut]

:-) I am a skinny unmuscular guy and according to my golf coach , I have a great practice swing, easy, loose and relaxed arms. Put a ball in from of me and that all changes, my arms suddenly lock up, with no extension, leading to an open face, a chicken wing and frustration on my part. I'm going try this next time I'm at the range to see if it helps. I bought Paul's Body Swing videos and they are great, they all make sense to me, it's just implementing the instructions especially concerning the arms. It's on me to conquer this because I didn't have this problem earlier as consistently as I do now. Anyway great videos Paul, Thank you.

[@paulwilsongolf]

A lot of people have great practice swings then you put the ball there and try to kill it. That is human nature. I did a tip on it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKaye6uslJdlfs0 so you need to go against human nature. If you have The Body Swing then you know the follow through lessons. You need to think more of them that hitting the ball. Do this daily in practice swings until mastered. The follow through is point B. Go from A to B. Forget the ball. You can do it.

[@RoastChestnut]

@@paulwilsongolf Paul I am working on it and truly believe that your methods will work with me. It is all so logical really but golf is a game that you can make really difficult, as I can attest to. My wife rarely miss a fairway and always give me a sly wink when I put one in the trees. ;-) Love knows no bounds :-)

[@terryholloway9930]

Great tip Paul hope to get there and turn through without tightening up

[@paulwilsongolf]

Just tell yourself you are doing a drill. It is not reality. So if you are doing a drill who cares about the result. You are doing a drill to learn the move to then put that move into your real golf swing. Funny how everyone thinks they always have to hit great shots. There is "drill mode." This is where you don't watch or care about your shots. You care about the move you are working on.

[@zero2herogolf]

Love this video. Touch the neck looks so relaxing, I can easily see how this would help people who are stiff.

[@paulwilsongolf]

It sure does. Works like a charm. I get them loose in the time they are with me and I can move on to powering it with the legs and hips.

[@vicchristopher6678]

Paul, you are an amazing teacher. Everything you demonstrate works. I’m now hitting the golf ball straighter and longer with minimal effort. Thank you for helping me make sense of it all 👍

This seems to be a great addition to the regular hinging drills I am currently work on as a bodyswing- student.

Thanks Paul. My club pro recently reiterated the need for me to have relax my arms for a looser, freer swing. I came to your site, found this and two other videos of yours, including the one on initiating the hip turn (another feedback point from a club pro). This weekend I played my club's championship, The Skagit Open. I watched and did this drill before each day's round and... won the Low Net Championship!! This included a hole-out eagle from 210 yards on the #1 handicap hole at our course. My swing is starting to really feel different, more syrupy. Your stuff works the best for me of any online instruction I have encountered. And I have watched a lot of online instruction. What more proof is needed???

Congrats on your win! Great feeling when you are playing well. You need to listen to your club pro. Keep on doing what you are doing. Hitting hard with arms will never work.

Yes for sure...this works for all golf clubs for full swings.

[@marcog.monroy495]

Thanks Paul. Your tips are very timely. It seems that you saw me playing today with my arms locked up. Can I practice this drill with a 7 iron or a pitching wedge? Do I need to tee it up? Can I take this drill on the course, playing a few holes? Or do you recommend it to keep it at the range and with the driver?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. Yes, you can do it with all clubs. I would stick to a mid iron. Teeing up irons is always good as it gives you room for error. I have had people play with it too. See if you get used to it. Some don't like it. Have fun!

Paul I have same problem of Stiff shoulders and arms. Swing fast forceful and not smooth. I have been looking for a, solution for long. Could not find one. Going to try it. Many thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

Well, you can come to the right place. I want your arms powerless in the down and through swing. As you are working on things in your backswing you may feel the arms as you are working on a position or movement. Once you train them to go back they would be doing that without you helping it. Then, of course, powerless in the down and through swing. ***START HERE*** Body Swing Concept: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2ncap17rr5ma80 Grip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIK9faNul6tgjdk Hinge Rehinge: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIvIhaSZr5ejo6c Alginment: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHe9lGONppdraM0 Secure Grip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmuZHqZqdCtbaM Best Drill: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYfLpX9jmZZ1b7s Power the swing with the legs and hip not the hands and arms.

I will certenly try this. What is your oppinion of lifting the left heel in your backswing to get more rotation?

[@paulwilsongolf]

You can lift it if you are not flexible. Just don't lift it too much. I like the shoulders to pull the lower around into position. So focus on coiling and allow the heel to come up if it needs to.

[@rossbecker7879]

Paul, I first found you on a KZbin train while exercising on my stationary bike about 10 years ago. You were talking about the effortless golf swing (coiling/uncoiling like a clubhead cover, practice hitting the ball only 50% distance, relaxing the wrists and arms before the backswing etc). I tried it and it worked quite well, but then (as always with the golf swing!) I lacked consistency - - and so I looked at other golf instructional videos (as you know, there are plenty out there!). Not able to gain any consistency with other instructions either, I found myself regularly coming back to your videos. Then, viola!, I saw this video last week. I can't describe to you how much I now know what relaxed arms (and wrists) feel like - - and how the arms naturally extend from the weight of the club during the downswing and through impact. I always thought my hands and arms were relaxed - - but because I kept my left arm straight (as all the golf instructions call for!) I now realize my arms and wrists were far from truly relaxed. With my new "effortless" swing, I hit a drive yesterday - - into a 15 kt headwind - - that went 10 yards further than ever before on that hole. Thanks.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Well, learning from KZbin videos is a great way to get a feel for what I teach but if you want to do it right then I lay it out step by step in my Body Swing book and videos. You came back (which most do eventually) and stuck with it. It clicked with this tip so it tells me you were still hitting which is why you weren't consistent. Glad you found it. Now, never stop doing it.

[@AlanStrong-t4z]

Glad you like my stuff. Watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH3WnHqvbNeootE

[@runsheba]

Nothing worked, until I loosen my arms. I was so locked up I couldn’t turn my hips, shift my weight and to top it off I had a chicken wing. So I watched your video loosen up your arms and the change I experience was amazing. Very quickly my swing changed I was able to shift my weight, turn hips and my chicken wing was gone. What I realized was that all those things happen naturally if you have rope arms

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Now you see that looseness is the key. Please stick to this thought. Even though you are starting to feel it you can be even looser. No one swings as loose as I want them to.

[@back2back379]

Manuel de la Torre would suggest a drill like this, especially for older people.

[@paulwilsongolf]

For sure. Works great for seniors. Problem is getting people to understand it's a drill. They always want to whack at the ball. Crazy.

[@TheBukman]

Just wondering if this could also help with someone with less tight arms and hands but more with a chronic flat backswing? It seems touching the neck is a great feedback to getting to the right position at the top.

[@paulwilsongolf]

It would help for sure. Why don't you just get to halfway back and lift your arms up a little allowing the right arm to untuck a little. I too had a flat backswing at one point when I was taught that many years ago. I hit it nowhere doing that swing. So I did practice swings in a mirror every day watching for the whole shaft above my head at the top. 2 weeks later I never though of it again.

[@TheBukman]

Thanks for the tip Paul. When I say chronic I mean chronic. To the point where I can do 1000 practice swings in the perfect spot and as soon as I address the ball and swing back my live view camera shows me inches lower. I have improved slowly with a lot of work and got to just below shoulder level but I am hoping this advice will help me get it that final few inches. Thanks again.

[@TheBukman]

Well after getting out the camera and using my 7 iron I can say that this tip fixed 30 years of my flat backswing in 15 minutes. Yesterday I spent hours trying to incrementally fix it and barely progressed. Oh and the loose arms were automatic at the same time. You need to put this tip in the special advice section. It's too amazing for KZbin.

[@harshadmody2013]

May I hinge my wrists right away when I take my backswing. And rehinge fast also. Is it a good idea. Thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

No. Hinge as soon as you go back and you activate the arms. This is what I am trying to stop you from doing. Allow your body rotation (shoulders) to take the club back.

[@harshadmody2013]

[@robertalexander2232]

Isn't this the instant lag drill you utilized on the elderly gentleman in another video? He wasn't strong or bulky but his lag immediately improved significantly. Assume this drill will help with anyone who has an uncontrollable desire to hit the ball with their hands and arms. My practice swing is so effortless but put a ball in front of me and I cannot for the life of me keep my hands and arms from initiating the swing with poor results. So frustrating as I KNOW the problem but still cannot fix it. This may be the answer I'm looking for to finally shut my arms and hands off (even with a ball in front of me) and just fire the body. Fingers crossed.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Can't remember. Might have been. Yes, this will get you to stop hitting with the arms for sure. This is my last resort drill when the person is hitting so unbelievably hard and I have tried everything else. Works like a charm if you do it.

[@robertalexander2232]

Hmmm. It was your "get lag in 2 minutes" video. Looks like it came out 1 month after this one. Tons of people had positive comments about it and appears to be the identical drill to this one... Get instant lag and loose arms with the same drill. Nice combo for sure.

Hi Paul; I tried this at the range today . My issue has always been grip pressure which tightens my arms & wrists & can't swing freely. It worked really well to keep my arms & wrists loose. The only problem I had was being able to stay synched thru the swing because of a totally different feeling. I wasn't hitting it a long way but I know that wasn't the reason for the drill. I hit about 150 balls with this & really liked the loose feeling after a while. It's gonna take a while to be able to do this with irons tho. Awesome tip.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks. Glad you liked it. Loose is in the arms. Need a secure grip and loose wrists. That is the key. Watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmuZHqZqdCtbaM Also, here are my grip tips: kzbin.info/aero/PLR6JEo0_dz791L0ftqV1EULK_etWoUoTK

[@kyokokeener1112]

Does this work for irons,too?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Try it. I would tee it up though.

[@dexterjames2302]

Can this swing support a draw. How is the setup different

[@paulwilsongolf]

Sure. You would need a slightly strong grip and a little bit extra lateral in the downswing. Watch these: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5bPhXRtl9mNnZo and kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXa1laJ5mLFoqKc

Not easy to tone those muscles down without the proper teaching. I was a little stiff today at the driving range, this tip has to be the final nail in the coffin for me, I think 🤔

[@paulwilsongolf]

Nice. I thought this one would be good for you. Always have this one in your pocket. Everytime you get tight just do it in practice swings a few times.

[@Cybertron1000]

I used to have zero wrist hinge in my swing because I was soo slow in my back swing that the club head got no momentum and simply flopped at the top

[@paulwilsongolf]

Yes, not hinging is a bit of an issue. The backswing can be too slow too. Hopefully, you are no longer doing that. Might want to watch this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5CyYXtohrN5pZI

[@Jackybug]

I know you advocate a firm grip but for someone beginning to learn to swing with loose arms it’s almost impossible to do it without loosening to some extent your grip too.

[@paulwilsongolf]

I teach a secure grip with loose wrists. You are doing a firm grip with tight wrists. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmuZHqZqdCtbaM So try again. Hold on and work the club back and forth and feel your wrist joint unlock: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4PPiWp4d6uinsU kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5CyYXtohrN5pZI kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIvIhaSZr5ejo6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIvIhaSZr5ejo6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpyapWyvfaiCY6s kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5zaoJ2nq7mEgck This is a piece. Then you connect this arm unit to your body which is coiling and uncoiling. Get the release first and get the ball hooking. Once you can do that you are doing half right (spin). Then you work add the body to straighten it out (direction). Easiest way: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJXTmaeeeLZsjK8

thats why he linebacker not the quarter back has no wrist action

[@paulwilsongolf]

Plus he weighed over 300lbs

How much do you charge to teach someone your effortless golf swing Paul?

[@paulwilsongolf]

I teach private lessons, 3 day schools and now do video coaching on my app CoachLink so you can work with me from anywhere. You can find out more on my site paulwilsongolf.com
