DANA/ GETTING BACK ON PLANE (EVEN THO THERE IS NO PLANE) GOLF

[@edu2857]

It baffles me that your channel doesn’t get more views. The amount of value you are delivering is insane. I think it shows the importance of social/entertainment and how people get emotionally connected or something along those lines. These talks tend to be more conceptual which has been super important for my development. I’ve improved more in the last 3 years than the prior 20 years. And it’s solely bc your channel has changed my concepts of what I’m actually doing. Mostly due to Mike Malaska.

[@golfrep2584]

In my opinion, his channel doesn't get more views becauses he tends to talk over all the great coaches he gets. Personally, I'm here to list to Dana, NOT the host. But the host doesn't seem to grasp the concept of listening to the coach. Full disclosure, I've taken lessons from Dana and he is fantastic. My approach is to listen to what Dana says I need to do to improve, impliment it in my swing and wait for his feedback. Continually talking over him doesn't work for me.

[@edu2857]

@@golfrep2584 I get it. He feels the need to have the conversation to understand the details. A lot of Brandon’s comments are about giving interpretations and example where the coach can say no or yes and give more detail. But do you really think if he didn’t talk at all the views would drastically change? I doubt it. It’s more of an indication of what drives people to watch something.

[@amygemini14]

Dana dahlquist can you expand on “let it go” don’t create power with hands at about 13-14 minute mark? ... I typically feel like I am “handle dragging” ... love your style of teaching !! Thanks to both of you

[@toddlittle926]

Ok easily one of your best content videos you've done The understanding of what creates positions through physical motion instead of artificially creating positions is revealed.

[@guitar1950]

You want lag too but you don't want to try to get lag. It should happen as a result of proper movements. I love the way Dana explains the swing movements!

[@Murf1802]

Thank you. no shit, this could be the most important video I've watched for my game in years I mean Years ,, outstanding instruction, I've never caught this swing coach before, if I was in Cali I'd be refinancing my house to have him to teach me !! This videos in the save column and on rewind for the next week!!! Awesome!!

[@Tigersmundo]

*I 💯 LOVE how Dana's brain operates fundamentally spitting out factual Gears info and the whys...IMHO a gift Dana West Coast = Athletic Motion Golf East Coast same info.*

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Thx. They disagree about a ton tho

[@robrodgersse]

@@BEBETTERGOLF What do you see as the primary areas of disagreement between AMG and Dana?

[@s3gts]

It's DOCF 10 years later JuNiOR and that'a Money

[@napkimplz5416]

At about 15:00 what does he mean by just let it go? Does he want you to unhinge the wrists in the initial down swing? He said you were dragging the hands down - would pulling the arms down pinned against your chest with your rotation and letting the release happen naturally (quiet hands) be considered dragging the hands? Or does he want active hands in the transition/down swing

[@amygemini14]

Would love further explanation on this Dana!!

[@scottschenk1759]

Wow. This is such an unbelievable explanation of the end game of a “Golf Swing”, impact, gotta love some D-Plane Spin Loft talk. You know you’re a golf nerd when.... Dana Dahlquist, wasn’t familiar with him, definitely moved up the list on guys I want to hear more instruction from. Would love to pick his brain more on the “match up ranges”. Love that dynamic, be an athlete approach (like Milo) Dana had!

[@paulbarrett2756]

Is it the same with driver? Thanks

[@toddlittle926]

This explains why there is so many different looking variations of the golf swing of the club using these principles

[@MrBrokentowels]

The reversing of motion!!!! Let’s go!!

[@slytown]

Great point that the handle has to be higher. Too many instructors say the hands/handle should return to where it was at address, but that's incorrect. Some pros do it, but they have a lot of speed and hit fades with that impact.

[@robrodgersse]

How do I schedule an in person lesson with Dana Dahlquist? I live 45 minutes from El Dorado Park GC. Thanks.

[@lagit4strokesgained820]

Good stuff Dana, Good stuff B!

[@dgstevens83]

Awesome video... really really good

[@alanwsterling]

Great info as always! Thank you!

[@Ocho817]

Dana’s a cool cat. Look forward to more from him. BBG that swing looked good towards the end there 👍

[@pureimpact24-7]

Even though the golf shaft raises from address it is still pointing on the target line plane. That really is the secret having the shaft always point to target line throughout the swing only 2 places is shaft not on target line but parallel , not to make things more confusing but having the club face perpendicular to the target line is a must for straight shots. keep your pressure to the ground in your heels will prevent you from coming over the top..

[@ericzellershow]

What a great question Brandon starts off with. Mind blown.

[@jayscott1380]

Good question Brandon. One of the questions I'd like to see these "top" instructors tackle is and I think it's related to yours, why are golfers taught to stand and swing the golf club with their feet placed in a parallel line to their intended target? Since the human body isn't anatomically built to function like that? We never position our body like that to do anything even remotely athletic, not to throw, swing a bat, shoot a gun, shoot a free throw, etc, etc, etc. Our feet position have nothing to do with the direction a ball goes and when we are instinctively being athletic they are staggered (either open or closed) to an intended direction.

[@kcct82]

I appreciate your videos, but you gotta let the man finish his explanations instead of speaking for him.

[@amygemini14]

Please please listen to this love the vids but everytime a teacher has this big thing to say you cut him off and try n explain for them

[@MrBrokentowels]

FACTS!!!

[@jwcs69]

This is the first time I've been irritated by BBG. I came to listen to Dana not BBG's flawed interpretation of what he's saying.

[@garymichaud8635]

Agree 100%

[@sirtogii5216]

Yeah it's interesting to see more and more teachers move towards the dynamics of the motion rather than freeze frames which can never catch the forces behind them

[@praizeboy]

I'm as new as a newby can be to the game. How in the world am I supposed to understand all of this science and engineering?

[@WishonPGA]

Understanding supination would help answer the mystery of how to have shaft lean but no handle drag.

[@BamaPaul]

Agree

[@s3gts]

Swing plane is shown in 2D and that's the reason it doesn't function properly in a dynamic 3D action. Time and Space Continuum. It's hard to teach magic but Dana is very close. Special stuff for sure.

[@billygraham5589]

I would agree that the hands are not on the swing plane throughout the swing, but I would argue that the clubhead stays on the swing plane.

[@gatgolf]

less coffee before filming

[@frankcox7933]

My coach talks more about hand path rather than swing plane.

[@DontRushtheClassics]

My flying right elbow keeps my left arm pinned and keeps me from going under the "plane" lol!

[@chekyerego]

Who is Doko Ninabar?

Wilco nienaber (spelling?) South African pro. Longest on euro tour

[@chekyerego]

@@BEBETTERGOLF thank you. I love to check out swings like that.

[@mazdaspeedmx512lbs]

I'm solved the swing. I Created a model in my head and a Cipher. What gets me is all these golf instructors looking at the concensus of what all the other instructors are doing. They are all faking it. When I come out with the true model they will all say WHO are you. It's all about image to them. I'm not sure how to bring it out to the world without it being stolen. They will take it and fake it just like they do now.

[@mcnillerandsons7906]

Hoping I can finally break 100 soon… I’ve played hundreds of rounds, practice, have had a PGA teacher give me lessons, watched your vids, went through top speed golf, and I’m still a max handicapper

[@guitar1950]

Work on your putting and chipping. You'll take strokes off your game.

[@mazdaspeedmx512lbs]

Iv solved the golf swing. I know what is happening. I created a new model in my head of the reality. I understand what the plane actually is. I am the only one.

[@flipdawhip2573]

its all in the right shoulder during transition to allow the club to drop, shoulder goes from a high position to a lower externally rotated position while the body is turning - causing the club to shallow.

[@benjaminsarmiento8150]

I think even Dana is frustrated with this clown lol

[@mitchmarland]

I feel like Dana Never really says anything that ACTUALLY helps. it's just all theoretical or something.

[@johnstewart2704]

Dana has taught me a ton that actually helps. Dana isn’t like other teachers in that they teach you a single part of the swing with one tip. “Act like you’re throwing your arms to the ground on the backswing.” It’s not about these singular pieces of advise. Dana is about teacher how the swing works in its entirety, which is right. It’s a sustained motion from start to stop, you need to understand how the chain of dynamics work in the swing.

[@thegreatproductspage1860]

🤦

[@tinytoons2517]

Brandon can you please let Dana finish his response's, I mean really, how rude do you have to be . . .

[@Somefatdude]

This took forever for him to answer the question, and he got it wrong to boot. Rotation plus being in a good position at the top doesn’t shallow the club. What shallows the club is being in a good position at the top, a little bit of trail wrist extension, and LATERAL movement/slide toward target-side. Early rotation sends the weight of the club out in front of the hands. The elements I mentioned get the club head down to the elbow plane whilst remaining behind the hands.

[@FGrecoJR]

You talk to much and dont listen enough.

[@bwg8861]

Best ballstriker ever, Moe Norman, rolling in his grave over this instruction.
