Best golf channel on KZbin. Cheers Keep up the great content.

[@lourencopc]

Well done Dan! You absolute legend and the only one I allow myself to listen in this YT rabbit hole. Thanks for the content.

Same.

[@DavidMissen]

Woosie, is such a great guy imparting his years of knowledge and experience with you. Such simple things that everyone can work on. Watching these videos should makes us all better player. Thanks Dan and Woosie for another great video. 👍👍👍⛳⛳

[@RichardBarrett-n7h]

What an absolute legend, seems like a really top bloke

[@RuairiODonnellFOTO]

Very interesting lesson, thanks for sharing it. Ian was No 1 when I was a junior and he was someone I tried to emulate with my swing, I'm not tall or fast and he showed me that a wider swing can let you complete with the monsters that are 6 foot something. Pleasure to see Woosie doing well and looking after himself. Miss his character on the Tour

[@nicke6394]

@@RuairiODonnellFOTOsame for me, he was a legend when I was a kid. He still is now 😎👍

[@Eagleable]

9:47 - This is SO interesting because this concept is the EXACT same when it comes to the break shot in pool (billiards). When I was told to feel like I’m keeping the cue tip against the cue ball as long as possible at impact, it changed everything for me immediately- I saw the rack explode with SO much more power… and it felt EFFORTLESS! I don’t know why I never thought to translate this thought to my golf game.. brilliant!!

[@walkerpalmer6509]

The difference there is that the path of the cue stick is moving in a straight path, so the feeling of the cue staying on the ball is a reality. In golf the path is not straight through so to achieve that feeling, a golfer would be manipulating the path too much and likely keep the clubface open resulting in weak pushes.

Ians ability to see what is happening in Dans swing is amazing. Dan who is so knowledgable also has the ability to be humble and therefore learn from a true master of golf.

[@paulmarjoram2258]

Legend of a player and legend of a coach. That’s bang for your buck. Thanks fellas.

[@stog33]

I’ve been floating around watching golf on KZbin for a couple of years now, recently came across this channel, it’s made me want to grab my old clubs from the shed and get proper into learning how to actually strike the ball, great channel Dan, thanks for putting these videos up for us all to enjoy

[@davemedlock2665]

This is so good! I wanted this to go on and on. This is interesting for a number of reasons, but to see two experts change roles as student and teacher is priceless.

[@Golfing-AddiCt]

Absolutely brilliant.... Ian was nearing the end of his peak years when I came to golf, but to be able to watch him impart his knowledge is bloody brilliant, it warms the heart.... Thank you for sharing this with us all Dan, it's truly fantastic. So good I've come back to it to pick out the nuggets of knowledge, Woosie had you absolutely creaming that driver, very interesting how he brought your ball flight down, are you going to stick with that powerful looking flight.? A little known fact about The 1991 Masters, as we know Ian Woosnam won it and was worlrd No. 1, but the winner of the low Amateur in the 1991 Masters.... No other than Phil Mickelson.!!

[@davidpeterson552]

This is great! Woosie has had a great career and he is a terrific teacher and he just loves the game! Love these guys!

[@rogb3199]

Felt like being there with you and Woosnam. What a privilege thanks!

[@jiml9062]

Great to see Ian in good health and striking the ball, more of the 'golden oldies' should get on KZbin, we all want to see you guys.

[@Mayowillpep]

I love your shirt game instructions. But this was the best you have done. As I do exactly what you do by closing my face on takeaway. Thank you this will help so much and thanks to Ian for his advice 👍

[@Mayowillpep]

Short. Not shirt. Bloody phones 😂

[@adrianscott6005]

Dan, you’re playing with Ian Woosnam 😂 that’s a pinch me moment right there !

[@tracylyon3969]

Dan, I’m the same as you with my swing, this video is so helpful, thank you to both of you.❤

Love woosy, grew up watching him, what a golfer! And by the looks a lovely guy as well.

[@davidhamilton218]

Brilliant Dan, looking forward to a range session to try some of this!

[@Podgie79]

Woosie is a boss. My favorite player when I first took up golf.

[@markoliver3097]

Brilliant masterclass from Mr Woosnam

[@D2012-n3t]

Great vid Dan👍

[@Doraus1]

Loved the explanation of staying low. I rented a Villa by Apes Hill, shame I never played there have played since but the more budget friendly Barbados Golf Club. Had to admire Ian’s Driving ability for a small guy and his all round striking ability. He already was a gutsy player but I bet his practice sessions down on the Beach when he resided in Jersey must have influenced his pure ball striking, it definitely helped me when I used to visit Ireland to play

[@thejoker7323]

There’s some golden nuggets in this…cheers Dan

[@jakhaughton1800]

Woosie’s how to in Today’s Golfer was a great help when I was in my prime.

[@SuperStevegrant]

This is golden. 👌

[@aq7705]

Woosie is such a legend. He should go on YT more often. A gold mine of golf knowledge. Does he hold clinics?

[@DanGrieveGolf]

We are looking at doing one together soon

[@rudyrodeheaver8678]

Brilliant!!! Woosie is the best! Good man you are Woosie!!!

[@bobj2447]

One of my all time favourites

[@laurencegilford5551]

Played Apes Hill last month with Bill Longmuir , one of my best golf experiences ever. Woosie never fails to be charming and helpful to everyone. Hope he didn’t see the rugby today 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Wow - never had Woosie down as a coach - amazing 👍. Vivienne Westwood in her book 'Advanced Golf'. "Woosnam's swing - Turn, turn, and wait for the applause" ✓

[@paulbishop3514]

Love it, just knocked my driver back down to 9 degrees 😂

[@TheRichardgrime]

Great coaching!

[@PaulChapman-y4b]

Excellent!!

[@paulterry7672]

Some good stuff from Ian will put some of that into my practice.

[@WoodyWoahzay]

I love that he’s teaching you all my bad habits.

[@stevewatkinson4593]

Brilliant lesson.

Ironic how so many 'teachers'online telling us to have the face shut half way back. Ian is old school and a great example of how to compress the ball

[@DanGrieveGolf]

Agree, was refreshing

[@huttboynz4422]

I have the exact problem Dan, I naturally draw the ball and I’m working hard on my takeaway to stay wide as you were here. Lots of good tips here, and I also have a three knuckle strong grip. This obviously causes me to get on the inside too much on my takeaway. I’ll try weaken my grip, play around with this and see how she goes. Cheers mate.

[@rzaretzk]

Great Video. Really enjoyed the common sense perspective.

[@MrDavewales]

Loved that Dan, thanks

[@andrewdare4404]

Thumbs up 👍 from. Me dan.

[@GroovyPlays]

Loving the content

[@fransclasener1668]

What did you say? My short game is normally OK. What an understatement 😮

[@vicpnut1]

Right off the bat you received and immediately implemented about 6 directive notes before 5 mins …in impressive how a pro can do that where us slackers have trouble with changing 1/2 of one thing

[@PatrickMclaughlinRock]

I think Ian was a naturally gifted player and probably those mechanics came later, but great to hear the genius talk about your swing Dan, although I think you're too hard on yourself as you strike it very well 👍

[@hudsonrilke]

Yep, very good indeed

[@johnmccluskey7584]

Woody is one of the greats brilliant 👏

[@ahmadghanem2414]

Great presentation. Did Ian say to hit down on the ball with the driver ? Please clarify

[@martinlarsson538]

I think he said it for his swing. The arc might still be up or near zero if he feel like he drive more down on it. He struggled with over drawing and hooking it I guess so it applied to straighten out his ball flight. 90% of all golfers probably struggle with a slice and I guess it wont apply to them then.

[@jamesfitzgerald6636]

Great content, if you are a middling golfer this will be Gold,

[@JimTester]

What's the name of that app that's coming out? Was it "Strive"?

[@brucemarshall1439]

Really good and quite funny vid! Please let us know how you went on your round 😎

[@jcoleman924]

Are you still hitting UP on the driver with that feel? Do you think that's still 2-4 degrees up?

[@algernonwolfwhistle6351]

I hope you didn't put an extra Driver in Woosie's bag. Amazing lesson. Thanks for posting.

[@nickhousden1996]

I spent years trying to get rid of that move. DOH!

Toe up very reflective of his era.

Dan teaches Ian how to stop duffing chips then gets a lesson in return?! 😂

[@chubbychequer1512]

Do you have to be careful not to get in front of the golf ball when leaning in! Or is that ok

People need to understand just how good woosy was. Simply head and shoulders above all his contemporaries at the time. If he could have putted better he would have won x5 the tournaments. Ball striker extraordinaire.
