Bradley Hughes Golf- Spine Tilt & Finding The Slot

[@anmaqm5883]

The way Bradley demystifies and describes "the slot" and how to get there is also genius.

[@anmaqm5883]

Thanks Bradley, this instruction video is absolute gold, "....pressure down the right ankle...." Hips automatically bump left. Pure genius.

[@bfcfan2739]

When my games slightly off I always come back to Bradley. Good stuff

[@ilovebigputtsandicannotlie5355]

This is best golf instruction on KZbin, period. I’ve been watching and learning from a bunch of hacks. So glad I found your channel Mr. Hughes! So much of what you teach is counter to what the so called “experts” are preaching on the other YT channels. Can’t wait to binge watch all of your videos!

[@GolfAusBradleyHughesGolf]

thanks- I kind of like my stuff too!!!! Good luck and enjoy watching

[@jw228w]

thanks for this video and the concept of throwing a ball was what clicked for me.throwing a ball with a side arm motion is what I think of before addressing the ball. John

[@davidmcnamara3243]

This is the missing piece of the jigsaw, that no one else talks about, or even understands. Respect😊

[@izzy0210]

thanks a bunch. you are the first golfpro that makes sense to me.

[@rangetime5847]

Absolutely spot on! This man has changed my game. I am hitting my 3 utility as far as ever- 240-250- I played a 430 Yd Par 4 yesterday, hit the 3 utility then a 6 iron in the hole from 185! Bradley you changed my game-

[@mahpat]

Absolutely. Cant say enough of how effective Brad's videos and swing concepts are.

[@Njliving22]

I come back to these videos from time to time when my habits have taken me elsewhere. Really appreciate your videos. Ive had moments where my ball striking has been phenomenal. Only issue is i have about 15 years of throwing my hands like phil mickelson and under pressure I revert back to it. And Ive found its so much easier hitting the ball straight with your classic 430 approach, but when i need to shot shape its still so difficult for me

[@christ2906]

Thanks Brad. You Are the Best! I’m threatening to break 80 because of you! Also I’m having a blast pounding the ball !

[@jongarrincha6106]

Concur 100 was pct with Cadmodel , Brad is soo spot on . He is pure genius. Having all that freedom from the slot position with the hands out in front allows you to really unleash turning everything through.without fear of getting stuck.

[@CBFREE]

Solid clear instruction into combining the shallowing of the downswing keeping hands out in front then on to transition and rotation into the ball. Due to BH Im getting more consistency and more power. You beaut !!

[@MrBadassbuddha]

Hope you keep posting Bradley, shame we didn't get to hear that legendary contact like in your older posts, cheers mate

[@markodoherty2939]

Very good something to focus on!

[@jakewest6775]

The right video at the right time. Well explained Brad :)

[@johnnyparker9928]

At last the mysterious slot is defined. I could never find it before. While studying Bobby Jones vids I noticed how close his hands returned to his leg at impact. THAT was the end of my over the top swing. This was the slot.

[@valedwards373]

Another great video by Bradley

[@jessewatson8281]

Such superb instruction. Thank you Bradley!

[@GolfAusBradleyHughesGolf]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@grahamjones7371]

Thanks, I felt the slot for the first time on the range but when I played the next day it had gone! Maybe this video will help me find it again!

[@AmmoDude]

I agree with lots of other positive comments. Mr. Hughes really knows the golf swing and how to communicate it to others. I just started using his instruction and, although his philosophy is new to me, I can already see improvements in accuracy. I have lots more to work on to regain lost distance (stomach hernia repair and total knee replacement last year) but it is comforting to learn from an accomplished player rather that the mass of wanna be's on KZbin.

[@FairwayJack]

good stuff ...I like the word "sink" ...push is OK too but sink implies slowness and I like that for my transition

[@marekjandous3709]

Great video!

[@euinhowie2303]

Always great videos,cheers

[@wayne39342]

Hi Bradley , great video, so what would you say the weight ratio is (right to left) at impact

[@nerd9992]

Great wisdom in golf!

[@valedwards373]

Great video

[@GolfAusBradleyHughesGolf]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@aguy3412]

BRILLIANT

[@ajgolfnut]

Excellent tip! Thanks! Is your weight more so on your right heel in the backswing, then weight transfer to your left heel on the transition?

[@carlosjuarez9527]

I think a good way to start the downswing and put you in the slot is to start the downswing by dropping the right shoulder down as the first move in the downswing. It puts you in the slot automatically. It will automatically clear the hips and drop the elbow to the body automatically. Try it.

[@dso1986]

Hi love yur vids. Ive been finding that if i dont have enough weight on my trailing foot at address my takeaway gets either very steep or if i dont fight it the takeaway goes really inside. What do you think about having your weight distribution at 80 percent towards the trailing foot???

[@GolfAusBradleyHughesGolf]

thats off balance....50/50 is the key....how wide your stance is will make it feel like you are more on the left (short clubs) or more on the right (longer clubs) because of where your head and centre is relative to the ball because of that stance width

[@bh5606]

Like it.

[@jayschwarz4365]

Question. In the slot, you club face appears to be wide open. It doesn’t look possible to square it up without massive forearm twisting. Am I missing something?

[@pacmanjones5625]

yes face is supposed to be wide open from P3 (high high). From there you can rotate your forearms as hard as you want and don't have to fear hooking the ball. The big hook comes from not having the forearms rotated open at that position and if you were to rotate hard with the forearms from that position without having forearms rotated open prior to that then you will close the club face drastically. Just try it. Without a club in your hand Stick your right arm out to your side like you are shaking someone's hand where your palm is facing outward toward the ball. From there swing with your right arm hard and you will see how much your arm turns over and your palm facing the ground on the other side past impact. Do the same thing stick your right arm out but this time have your palm facing the sky (forearms rotated clockwise, aka club face "open" - which really isnt actually open) and then swing through with your right arm past the ball and you will see that even if you do it fast and hard it does not turn over near as much as when you did it without having your forearms rotated. It should feel like your club face is wide open and you will shank the ball approaching hip high on the down swing, but with it being that wide open it allows for full forearm counterclockwise rotation to square the club face, along with that added speed of the club face rotating, and gives your more range of motion to fire your hands hard without fear of the ball going left as long as your body is outracing your hands to the finish. It feels very very weird at first but practice it a few times and eventually start hitting balls and you will get the correct feeling. People fear the open club face because they correlate that to a slice, but if you are in the slot approaching the ball from the inside with an "open" club face, it allows for more range in the shoulders and forearms to subsequently unwind and turn left hard through the ball. The slice comes in from zero forearm rotation and guiding the club down through the strike holding it off. Another way to think about this is a forehand shot in tennis. You approach the ball with the tennis racket open/forearms rotated open and as you approach contact with the ball you rotate the racket and your forearms hard to square it up and produce additional speed at that last foot before contact as your arms unwind vs. have the racket facing the ball and guiding it straight through the strike

[@maniacswinners2007]

When you hit with the right side does this feel like you're going down the 4.30 path with your weight? Thanks Brad.

[@kostasviastikopoulos217]

Buckle sit slide bump by earnest jones. . This description seems to correlate your move. Do you feel that is accurate and if so what would be the bump .

[@beachboy13600]

Stay on plane...no pain

[@BillyDee159]

I’ve watched most of your video’s, it’s helped me. I find it very disconcerting that you go thru a 12 minute video and NEVER swing the club...wtf?

[@gerrymcintosh4477]

Bradley, do you believe we should be « twisting » (supinating) the glove hand into impact to close the club face? I don’t but, I’m curious to know, if I should or need to? 🤷‍♂️ Cheers mate. 🇨🇦💝🥰
