CLUB PATH Drill To Help YOU

[@johnjcjr]

Truly the best explanation of how a proper golf swing works that I have ever watched. This is just brilliant. I have never seen another coach explain the overall concept more clearly. Definitely next level instruction. Subbed and liked. Cannot wait to start working on this at the range.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thank you so much John, humbling words my friend. Super happy its given you some clarity on the golf swing, please let me know how it goes! Best wishes Stu

[@alfonsodutoit2835]

Dude! So now I have totally transformed my good swing that I worked on hard from conception in 3 days! Remember, I asked about the feeling? How long will it take? Well, 2 driving range sessions and 18 hole’s and for the first time I actually feel ready to hit the ball and only have to think about finish! Instead of starting with clockwise left wrist rotation (witch never felt great), pushing to open up the face and swinging naturally around and finishing low feels incredibly. I am more balanced and hitting shallow divots for the first time in my life! When in NY, I’ll stick you for a round at Bethpage Black! I “feeel” like a complete golfer!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Alfonso my man, such amazing feedback!! This game is so much easier than people believe; applying the various layers only gains more momentum and builds the house. So pleased my friend, Bethpage Black here we come! 😉 Keep up the great work and keep me in the loop. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@drdavidshlosberg4974]

By far the most clearly explained video of all your basic advice Stuart. Absolutely genius teaching yet again - thanks a bunch for your expertise and teaching skills!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Hugely kind words Dr D - thank you so much for sharing such lovely feedback. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@DuncanBuck-n2k]

Stu, the cumulative effect on my swing of this on top of the time we have worked together, is that today I have more club face to path alignment, therefore more predictable outcomes and the best bit - I’m loving golf (even in the winter!) This video really made me Push the Handle down - result…more of the above - you are the golf whisperer!! Dunc

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Hahah thanks Dunc, but shhhh "don't tell anyone" 😂😂

[@iancox8619]

Loved the explanation of pressure on the handle to square the face up. 👍⛳️

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thanks Ian! Much appreciated Sir.. best wishes Stu 😊

[@paulwelsh9325]

Oh my god. I haven’t hit a ball yet . Just watched this video and went into the garden . Picked up an 8 iron and practiced this pulling technique. Wowza I feel like my speed has gone up 10 mph. So clean and it makes my hands whip through at contact with so much effortless power . This is gold ✋

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Bless you my friend - thank you so much for sharing your experience. Makes me so happy to hear my videos are helping. Much appreciated. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@svn75060]

So refreshing to see Golf Instructors such as Stuart reply to people in the comments! Appreciate the great content and work you put in your channel!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

It’s my pleasure Luc - just want everyone to play the golf they deserve, it’s just the best game bringing the world together. Thank you so much for your kind words, hugely appreciated. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@paulstacey8863]

@@GoodGolfCoaching 2:09 is the broom cut to the length of a driver or a little longer? This really works. Haven’t felt this motion for decades!

[@stuartstatham3989]

Another level Stuart. I’ve never had this explained to me, except in one of your previous videos, but this time I got it and it’s like a lightbulb moment. Feels like a trade secret. Maybe your Golf’s masked magician

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Haha thanks Stuart - creating the right visuals is huge and always trying to make people see the image is the art of coaching. Glad this video flicked the switch for you Sir and really kind of you to share your thoughts, thank you. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@andydyson8527]

The perfect ending Stuart to your broom series. Really starting to understand how the handle in particular works. Starting to see some real progress thanks to your brilliant concise instruction. The only issue for me now is timing the outward pull phase with the downward pressure in the handle. Keep up the great work. Regards Andy

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thanks Andy ! In my video I demonstrate the two phases, the move forward with the handle and then down at strike. Try and segment it in a similar fashion as a drill. See how you go and let me know! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@jammuu]

I went and tried some of the broom techniques getting my handle out and then lowering it which brings the club head back to the ball. I was shocked when I flushed the ball straight. Best coaching ever.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Love hearing these progress reports my friend and super happy how quickly you understood the information. Keep up the great work and let me know how you progress! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@jamesbyrne1894]

Great video Stuart. The visualisation and feels are super helpful. Thanks again

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

My pleasure James, glad the video helped. Thanks for the lovely feedback. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@dennis1119]

As you say across the pond--"Brilliant"! Great use of props to illustrate what most golfers (me included) will be perplexed by since almost all golf instruction just focusses on dswing shallowing and invariably leads to an inside path and a handle that rises up! My favorite way to think about it is that we are swinging on an arc and everyone focuses on the arc to the ball but there is the arc after impact that few people talk about. If you put another cane on the front side of the swing, you can see that the downward pressure on the handle and body turn will take you around the arc beautifully. Your content is a beacon in a sea of golf confusion!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Your paragraph tells me all I need to know, you get it, well done. I can’t wait to keep on our journey via Skillest to golfing excellence. Thank you Dennis, much appreciate the lovely words. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@kevinnaylor3662]

Hi Stuart. Thank you for this recording. It provides a lot of clear information as a follow up to my lesson last Thursday.😊

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

So happy that’s the case Kevin; giving clients, past and future clients an opportunity to see the swing for what it is is so liberating. Look forward to seeing your progress next time Kevin! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@roadtoscratchgolf3481]

Another wonderful explanation of how the swing actually works. I started using your suggested weaker trail hand grip and noticed two things: 1. It’s a similar grip to my chipping and pitching grip, and 2. It really does make my trail arm rotate to close the face, which surprised me, because I’ve always been told to make my trail hand stronger in order to help close the club face. Golf really is a lot of doing the opposite of what you think. Another thing I’ve discovered is that if I only think about moving the handle the club face will do the right thing. So the swing is actually a handle movement. Again, thanks for the scientific education. Cheers.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

It’s my complete pleasure Sir - love hearing the positive steps you’re making with your game. Real breath of fresh air! Best wishes Stu. 😊

[@kb-tr7sk]

You can feel this naturally when you swing with one arm. It's amazing that once you put two hands on the club that feel goes out of the window. Trying to get this feel swinging with both arms is challenging. Thanks for giving me another method to train it.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

My pleasure!! The heavier the broom the better!! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@themusketeer9458]

This is... something else! I've been working on my swing, getting pretty good, but it feels odd.. i hit a pitching wedge 130-40 meters, but i still feel like i am pulling the club through impact, instead of letting it swing.. this made me feel actual release and also understanding why i sometimes open the club face on my practice swings.. i was pulling the handle to mutch yowards the target.. will try this first thing tomorrow on the range!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Please let me know how you get on, and if I can help further with any questions!! Look for are to hearing how your practice is!

[@johncreet1254]

Thanks Stuart. Your videos with the broom and the associated content about handle path have completely changed my understanding about what I need to do to help my strike issues. Just need to keep practicing it.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Music to my ears John; the next chapter in your golf career is going to be truly exciting. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@Indy_Karnal]

I think the fear in the mind is that the pull is going to take the club head away from the intended path. However that is because I want to place head at back off ball. Need to allow club to swing which is what I’m working on. Great and unique coaching which I’m watching avidly even from Cancun atm.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Please please watch my “you don’t know this” Thumbnail on Club path. This will completely eradicate the pull. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@Indy_Karnal]

Hi Stu I was referring to pulling the handle in the downswing as the first action. It feels to us hitters that there’s no way the head will get to the ball. I am watching your downswing playlist and very very helpful.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Ok my friend - ultimately, you need to balance out the energy transfer with the pull and the swing of the golf club. I refer to it in many videos. Especially the third broom video. Hope that helps. Best wishes Stu

[@JeffPassageCPA]

Brilliant, Stuart! This broom series has certainly been enlightening to me. Really appreciate your hard work at myth busting.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thank you Jeff! Hope the golf continues to progress. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@JeffPassageCPA]

Stuart, not just "good coaching." GREAT COACHING! No other golf instructor I have watched in person or online has ever ever ever given a student permission to break the pane of glass with the handle. That was the swing thought / image I have always needed to make a better golf swing. Better impact. Better distance. It was a sort of throw away line in your presentation. Please discuss this further. Thanks, Jeff P.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Jeff - I will do just that my friend! This is great insight for me, thank you dearly ! Best wishes Stu

[@simopeltonen6457]

This is amazing, thank you so much 🥳

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

My absolute pleasure Simo - thank you for taking the time to say thank you. Greatly appreciated. Best wishes Stu

[@frozendivots1564]

Many greats lift the handle. Just rotate the grip for face closure. Both ways work well. Great video.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Many of the greats get the ball in the hole by fewer strokes than the others; this game can be broken down as simple as the depth of knowledge allows you. 😊Best wishes Stu.

[@dieseldes1301]

Hi Stuart thanks for the video ,is this concept for driver as well?

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Absolutely!! I’d rather not think of it as a concept but merely how two levers must be used off a human 😂😂 any questions, please ask away Sir! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@ChiTherapie]

this is massive to me. wow, maybe its not to late to join the senior tour ha ha. Thanks Stuart

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thanks Chi! Let me know how it goes my friend. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@IdaGolfo]

Man had a rough couple of days slicing the ball a bit with my driver and hitting a slight fade with my irons. Felt like I was getting left around, but I wasn’t focused on the pressure down. I must have been lifting just slightly. I had a 2 weeks of piping everything purer than I ever had. Stu.Thank you for sharing the difference In your video about and stance and path. It helped me… But, is it safe to say that you cant really get down to far through impact with the pushing down feeling (smashing through the pane of glass) It seems to me like the feeling of the arms and hands through impact (from what I see in your demonstrations is that it feels like you extend your arms as far down as you can without losing your balance and spine angle…and then pull to the left around? Is that a correct feeling? Sorry for the length. Thanks again for these amazing videos.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Absolutely my friend… glad I got my message across and all being well the slice will disappear! Best wishes Stu

[@jimburns7549]

Before the decisive move where the handle goes down to line up the face, at what angle is it moving toward the ball? Parallel to the ground? Descending downward? I’m having difficulty seeing where my hands are in space coming to the handle drop. Can you help with that?

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Hi Jim, the best I can help with is these videos. Without seeing your swing, impossible to advise im afraid. Best wishes Stu

[@marktizard7273]

Brilliant explanation 👍

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thank you Mark 🙌

[@kvander1386]

Brilliant video!

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thank you!

[@markfurlong800]

Great video, thanks. Maybe I missed it but at the end of the video, you demonstrated how the handle goes out and then down to straighten the face. Could you show what a face on view would look like. What would be the position of the hands in space. 🙏🏻

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Hi Mark thanks so much for the question.. if you watch the three broom series videos before this one, I give more visuals on exactly what you’re talking about Sir. Best wishes Stu

[@markfurlong800]

Thanks Stuart, I’ll go take a look. I’ve watched the broom video before but not correlated the two. As an engineer, I’m.inspired by your videos and this is the way forward for me. Will be reaching out on Skillest once I have a better basic understanding and have managed to put what you reach into my swing. 👍🏻

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

OK Mark, look forward to it Sir. Any questions along the way, just let me know! Best wishes Stu

[@gh50hill1]

is this similar to the malaska move from mike? handle in, club head out

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Hi DC I’m not familiar with Malaska coaching. Sorry I can’t help there. Best wishes Stu

Hopefully it keeps growing Craig… thanks for the lovely feedback Sir.

Took the broom to the range last night....... strange looks from the unenlightened 😀😱

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Haha would have loved to see that Martin! As someone’s swing I know, I am confident the impact zone and the orientation of the broom would have been very insightful. Let me know how it went! Best wishes Stu 😊

[@laurisa0318]

Million dollars in golf aids, instructions, multiple swing theories (stack and tilt, X factor, one plane, two plane) wasted only to realize the secret sauce was hiding in aisle 5 of your local Tesco/Home Depot.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Haha yes it was; spread the word… golf is easy, life is good, birdies galore. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@ayotollaofrockandrolla7219]

This is complete 180 what the guys on elite golf recommend. They like left elbow feeling like it points to the target. With a high handle hitting with the back of the club feeling Interesting

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Which is exactly why I am posting it my friend.. Elbow at target is utter garbage my friend... Best wishes Stu🙂

[@grahamjones7371]

1st attempt broomhead disappeared into hedge slightly right of target

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Go get it, bolt it back on and go again 😂😂

[@Robertoknowit]

The feeling is anchoring the left hand butt at the bollocks on the downswing and turning left using the right hand pushing down and around to complete the follow through,am I anywhere close to your concept.Have been close many times, utuber Phil Hurrie was I think simular concept.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Sounds like you’re on point to me Robert!! Best wishes Stu

[@Robertoknowit]

thankyou

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Pleasure

[@jack-hq7gr]

Brilliant😅

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thanks Jack!

[@jack-hq7gr]

Super impressed especially after so many years of traditional golf instruction has me in knots. Is it far to suggest that as we learn the out and down moves old habits, of ulnar deviation get the shaft and forearm moving more down rather than around- creating higher hands out.. Maybe the broom drill trains that out because of weight.???

[@garyu6995]

Please more drills n more drills to FIX the problem NOT more talk/demo ABOUT the problem.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Thanks for YOUR important Gary and YOUR critique. 😂

[@chief1193]

Just square the club head up at impact would have suffice instead of all this bullshit.

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Such wonderful feedback which I’ve taken onboard and will apply none of it next time. But I really appreciate you taking the time to share such insights. Best wishes Stu 😊

[@boppieh8448]

If you haven’t done so already, Any chance you could do a full swing video in slow motion?

[@GoodGolfCoaching]

Check out my shorts, you will find planty of my swings in slow motion, as well on my instagram account. Best wishes Stu
