Collin Morikawa's PURE Iron Swing | TaylorMade Golf

Collin Morikawa is known for his premier ball striking ability on the PGA Tour, ranking consistently in the top of the Strokes Gained: Approach-The-Green stat week in and week out. It's easy to see why with his smooth, consistent iron swing here.

Welcome back. This wont be your last time watching this.

I just screenshot every motion to practice each part get it perfect all in one and slow then i speed up my swing till i feel i can’t control my flow state

He hasn’t got shorts on

[@MGN01]

In this month’s Golf Digest, David Ledbetter claims that pros have 65% of their weight on their front foot during the backswing. It sure doesn’t look that way when I see this wonderful swing.

[@somguy5035]

"Lead poisoning", as they say

[@alexroberts6416]

Doesn't look that way to me. You can see there's more weight on his trailing foot opposed to his leading foot (front foot). I may be wrong

[@edge21str]

As soon as I started firing my hips, I started raising my heel off the floor before impact. I'm hitting it miles and straight now but I thought my swing wasn't "technically" sound. Good to see there are tour pros with the same quirk in their swing.

[@mikemassel1392]

Lost track of how many times I watched. Although I'm much older, Collin and I are pretty much the same size, weight and build. This will help my game. It surely can't hurt....lol

[@GRIFF22]

Very modern swing. Keeps the clubface working back to the ball during the takeaway, then picks the club up steeply to prevent the hands rotating behind him. Very little hip turn at the top, but a massive hip turn to return the club back to the ball, this minimizes the flip with the hands. Incredibly consistent and repeatable!!

[@jacobr4558]

Yeah the supination is clean along with proper hip hinge. It's also nice that he doesnt extend early or spin out. I personally enjoy his dynamic loft!

[@BD-df9hu]

Is this common now with the little hip turn in the back swing? Honestly shocked out how little it is, but makes so much sense how it would help with consistency

[@SofaKing880]

Good call! You can actually see him pull the club head back at the top of the back swing!

[@donnafielder6027]

During the interviews at the Masters I saw a different Collin Morikawa an arrogant Collin Morikawa which I didn’t like & his game showed it in the finals at the Masters! Collins Morikawa also stated he got GREEDY & it made him look like the loser he was! One thing Collin Morikawa needs to learn don’t speak like an arrogant golfer because this golf course will make you look like you need to go & practice more! One thing I noticed about Collin Morikawa’s smile he looks like a joker! Not a good look!

[@samkelly207]

You gotta love his follow through😍

[@izwansabri3663]

0:15 downswing replay

[@louisolivierfortin]

I notice some hip turn restriction in the backswing, must be one of the reasons he can get really open during the downswing. Great moves

[@Randomhero651]

I LOVE these! Fantastic camera work and song, do one for every member of Team Taylormade!

[@marshallgrimmett6290]

Kids got perfect alignment with the arms and shoulder. Only thing I would say is that it looks like he’s crossing the line at the top but could just be the angle of the camera.

[@MulliganManOfficial]

Some say early extension is a killer, for Morikawa, it’s the the opposite

[@supplyguyfred7562]

2x speed kinda looks like his actual swing

[@snakepliskin1185]

He sets up on fully the back foot - zero backward weight shift. Most pros have a little backward shift at the takeaway.

[@yoddy0]

Gonna watch this on repeat till I get it down.

[@scottlandb6579]

I love these videos. However, it’d be nice to know if he was hitting a draw, a fade, etc. I’m not skilled enough to look at this swing to determine if he was specifically swinging with one of these hitting types in mind. Maybe someone on the interweb might be able to say. I’d love to duplicate (as close as I might think) his mechanics but this could be completely wrong if his intention was to hit a different type of shot then a “straight” ball.

[@shaner21]

That bowed wrist at the top is insane

[@malikutara]

Feels like you breaking your wrist

[@IIIllllIIIIlllll]

Came here to say that. Extremely weak grip I think necessitates that. Amazing he makes it work so damn well

[@fuji4202]

Sick swing !!!

[@gmr7494]

Looks a little like Dustin's swing

[@johnsmathers21]

Because they’re both hitting a lot of fades so their shoulders both slant that way through impact

[@Timwit84]

They both bow their lefts wrists also... look how he keeps his wrist bowed even at impact... beautiful and extremely difficult to copy

[@chipandputt]

beautiful swing, but he is going to suffer some serious back issues in the future. his hip rotation vs his shoulder rotation at impact is absolutely brutal on the back.

[@eddt430]

Just watched him in a interview on sky sports news. Sounds exactly like Tiger Woods when he speaks. Such a talent.

[@golf-for-beginners]

solid technique Morikawa 💪

[@juasauga80]

Pay attention to the butt end of the club. It leads until its over top of the ball. Creating lag and keeping the wrists hinged

[@Ajb2104]

Major champion now

[@jimcrosby3944]

Sweetest swing on tour.

[@alexroberts6416]

I don't get why it's not more common to close the face at the top of the back. Or even keep it closed throughout the entirety.

[@alexroberts6416]

One thing I need to know is why his right heel comes off the ground way before impact

[@biggiesmalljaws]

I cannot for the life of me figure out how his head stays still with the lower body moving forward and the aggressive shoulder/hip turn.

[@Timwit84]

So many beautiful motions to this swing... but that left forearm angle at the top of his backswing 💰

[@ROY-pv8so]

I've now bookmarked this video for easy access.

[@hhanger1]

That is the most outrageous hip turn at impact! He has completely eliminated the left side of the golf course.

[@billyb3802]

If you want to see outrageous hip turn, check out Cameron Champ's swing

[@dashlikes00]

what do you mean eliminated? doesn't bigger hip turn ensure a fade?

[@hhanger1]

@@dashlikes00 that's what I'm saying. No way to hook the ball with than much turn. He can aim left and that soft, controllable fade all day and then some.
