CONSISTENTLY SQUARE THE CLUBFACE with this SIMPLE DRILL

[@austingunn734]

I cannot overstate how much this has improved the quality of my setup, takeaway, swing, contact, and follow-through. Stretching the arms has helped me better visualize the shots, worry less about "hitting" the ball and focus more on squaring the face and getting rid of the chicken wing. Thank you!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Seems like you are on track. Keep at it. Getting rid of that chicken wing takes your game to a whole new level.

[@leatherman2424]

Hands down, best tip ever. You've literally changed my game from shooting pretty good 80's to pretty great 70's. I can't thank you enough Paul.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Glad you are doing well. Low 70's is the new goal. Let's get there by next golf season.

[@anthonyviola9400]

Thanks Paul for following up your previous video on this content with this excellent drill ! 👍

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very welcome

[@TriNguyen-hl8oz]

Simple and effective! Thanks so much Paul! I tried your square clubface tip last weekend and it was amazing.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Fantastic! Glad it is working for you.

This guy is the ONLY golf oach i ever watch! awesome pal as always!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Wow, thanks!

[@k-bcool1320]

The trip provided in relation to this drill actually works!!! I tried it on the range and found that I worried less about my SWING, but more about squaring the clubface. I definitely will be using this drill at home. THANKS!!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Doing daily drills and working on your swing positions is the best (and easiest) way to get it.

[@anthonyhernandez7884]

I feel like the missing pieces that I wasn't doing will help me develop consistency with my game most of all confidence thank you sir

[@paulwilsongolf]

I provide missing pieces for sure. I had a lot of questions when I was learning that no one seemed to be able to answer. So I am sharing them with everyone.

A fantastic drill , thank you

[@paulwilsongolf]

This is a good one. Get the arms fully extending. Try to do it until you get used to the feeling of full extension.

[@rayray8212]

Absolutely imperative for accuracy as well. TKS...

That's right.

Great fundamental tip. I used this at the driving range the other day from your first squaring the face video and had alot of great impact along with some great shots.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad it helped!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you found me. I have been doing my thing. Covid allowed me to get back t posting on KZbin. Tons of tips on my channel now that all go hand in hand with what I have taught now for 30 years. Stay loose and used your legs and hips. At 80, you should be able to hit it 240 without issue. You can do it.

You are so welcome!

[@SpitSharp]

Great tip.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad it was helpful!

[@williamkerner]

I agree with 95% of what you say. However, you need to place the object 2 feet in front of your ball but about 4 inches inside the path, due to the natural rotation of your body left. Love your videos.

[@paulwilsongolf]

I am assuming people would get that. You can't even swing it straight down the line without coming out of balance. So hopefully people understand that. Glad you like the tips. I appreciate it.

[@CarrterGolf1]

Will this help with wedges and drivers as well?

[@paulwilsongolf]

For sure. One swing all clubs. The swing changes automatically with the length of the club. Arms should always stretch out fully if you are not hitting with arms.

[@jerryplaystennis]

5:38 Hi Paul, there were instructors that taught me to do the forward shaft lean. Can you please clarify because I thought that was the most ideal way to hit the ball?

[@paulwilsongolf]

You get forward shaft lean due to having the right fundamentals. Impact is not the widest point of the arc. The club is descending at impact. Because it is not at the widest point there is an angle between head and shaft. You get the lean by firing the lower body first. This tilts the upper body back in the downswing. If so, you are getting closer to the ground. More importantly this gives you 2 axis which creates the oval of your swing. If your swing is now an oval the club would be descending as it hits the ball then it gets to the widest point which is 2 feet after the ball is hit. You need to watch these tips to understand it. I will be doing a tip on this in the near future: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6eoaX6FiM2SrNU and kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5LScoxprLarg9k and kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGjWk6KKhstsr9k you try leaning it on purpose you will never be consistent because you will always be maniuplating the face. A tick on a clock is 6 degrees. You don't have 6 degrees room for error.

[@adamgleason5414]

This is a great tip, at first it wasn’t working then I realized my arms weren’t straight to begin with! First time at the driving range doing this I hit the ball solid almost every time. I’m a lefty and still have a slight fade about every other shot, maybe just need more practice with the drill?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. Fade = open face. So loosen your wrists and let it release. Watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXetgH94iL2GnLM

[@julian8350]

Seems like your latest video is always the answer on my current swing-problems / questions. How do you manage your hip-rotation during pitching? Since I do your swing, my pitch-shots are random numbers. For me I'm lacking to control my hips. I use my hips or I don't use them. There is no speed-control with it. Do I need to practise it or do you have a quick tip?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Turn your belt buckle to hit pitch shots. Hinge and turn . That's it. Can't give everything away.

[@michaelc6720]

What are the hips doing during this drill? Thanks for the video

[@paulwilsongolf]

They are turning slightly through because they would be open at impact. of course they would be turning into the backswing too.

[@jareroken9127]

I’ve been watching a lot of Ben Hogan. Certainly a body swing. As far as I’ve seen his arms don’t swing out anywhere, he uses the rotation of his body to lead the arms and the arms extend beautifully through impact naturally.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Definitely. A lot of those old timers were body not arms. You can just see how loose they were at set up.

[@jareroken9127]

@@paulwilsongolf Yeah, and look how beautifully many of them struck it! Best wishes Paul. Great videos.

[@dds2690]

I have been using an impact bag (50% swings) with the bag sitting at my chosen ball position. If the bag is two feet in front of my chosen ball position and my arms are fully extended the toe of the club should be touching the bag ? By the way I’ve been working hard on my swing and thanks to you I am improving.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. So glad you found this drill. Too many people using the bag at impact which keeps them hitting. I of course don't want you hitting anything. Think of the swing as an arc. I would put the bag in front of that arc so it hits squarely. As you do these swings feel both arms stretch out fully. This is full extension. You arms are only so long so you should be able to repeat your swing if you allow them to stretch out. Keep up the good work.

[@whitmanft]

thx for the tip,, !! i just have to make sure my grip stays neutral ,,,i then hit it very consistenly straight,,,,thx again..

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad to help

[@marcoscoligado1295]

This tip makes one avoid club face manipulation at time of impact. I was always very concerned of a square club face but because the swing happens so fast I cannot just do it. Frustrating! But this tip makes a lot of sense and truly doable. Thank you Paul!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you see it. Just one little twist of that face and you will hit it sideways. Got to just let it go. If so, you will hit it pretty dead straight most of the time.

[@patleg]

Love it. I am currently in this journey with your “Body Swing”. Feeling effortless while more efficient is so satisfying. One question: when I do this “drill”, I feel like I am losing my posture and kind of extend with my hips forward when reaching this position. Is it expected, is it correct to start extending as the arms extend ?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks for your support. Don't move foraward as you do this. Just realize this is where your arms are swinging too after it hits the ball. Your head would be behind the ball as you hit this spot. Watch this again: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGjWk6KKhstsr9k

[@stickymagician]

I do this drill with a swing stick. The weight of the swing stick seems to ingrain the path and feel to body memory for me then when I swing the club it feels so much lighter and effortless to me. What’s your thoughts on weighted swing sticks?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you are doing it. I like people to swing light clubs (sticks) not heavy. I have a tip coming on this. Stay tuned.

[@nrgchitti]

Hi Paul, this tip works for me with driver, wood and hybrid and long irons well. Able to hit more consistently center. Great tip. I am not able to replicate with mid to short irons. What could possibly be the cause? Thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

Probably doing a chicken wing. Not sure unless you tell me where you are hitting them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/epynY2yFdteWbpo and kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHbZpoapiMmia8k and kzbin.info/www/bejne/baCZZq2VpcllbtU

[@VimMitt]

I am missing one piece of secret which is full extension of upper and lower body after impact. I hit the bag then collapse my body causing topping of the ball. Please can u talk about extension of chest after impact? None of your videos talk about. Thanks.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHirn4idhcaSZ7c do it as a drill nice and easy and get used to it.

[@chuckgviolin3538]

Gonna try this. I hit 16 solid 7-irons on my launch monitor into a net today. Contact was great. Each shot was straight as an arrow. Problem is, the clubface was open about 2 degrees on every single shot, so they were all about 25 yards right. At least I'm consistent.

[@paulwilsongolf]

So you just turn more coming down which would create a more direct path or you can purposely roll your wrists to loose your wrists then try again. Do this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2mZaYSpidF6qpY kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmXZcoajhN-ehsk kzbin.info/www/bejne/hF7ReIBsrrNqb5I kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3mop2p9br9oY5I That will loosen your wrists then try again.

[@antoniogallo5433]

Any words of wisdom for hitting a stinger?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Are you a better player? If not don't hit that shot. In the future I will explain the secret to hitting a punch shot. Just put it on my list. This would apply to a stinger too.

[@antoniogallo5433]

Paul Wilson Golf currently sitting on a 10 handicap. Not great, but have the ability to shape my shots with fades and draws, and hit it STRAIGHT now (thanks to The BodySwing). I’m also a member of Ignition Golf and have seen you talk about the punch shot, on the site. It makes sense, you just mentioned it on the chipping video and I didn’t think about using it full swing. Thanks for all you do!

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

I told you the guys at club paying for me coaching soon as i can figure out how now my girl phone want charge that i thought might work i get it just takes time always something in my life

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

i had the tennis elbow before i started doing this swing..after the guys said i was only flinching with irons...i dont heal fast i am on like 10 scripts

[@paulwilsongolf]

Ouch. That stiff is not good for you.

[@k9feces]

I think I’m squaring the face correctly because the ball is going straight, but I’m not hitting the sweet spot, and hitting it thin more often than not.

[@paulwilsongolf]

You're coming out of it a little. Hit it then look for it. Work on this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXrCl4yDeqeDhNk
