ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On KZbin and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

2. How to swing more in to out or how to swing more inside out
3, How to get the correct impact position with driver
and I hope to do all this with simple golf tips so you can create an effortless golf swing

I first swung a golf club at age 17, now I’m 44 and in all those years I would reach for my 7 iron when I was 150 yards from the green. Consistent and reliable yardage but inconsistent with my alignment. After watching this video I’ve added 30-40 yards on every iron! Now I’m reaching for my pitching wedge to get me on the green from 150 yards not my 7 iron because that’s landing about 185 yards away now. This video has given me so much confidence in my irons I just leave my driver in the bag and swing my irons because they go straight and long. Thank you Danny!

[@devonshire56]

Been working really hard at hitting irons better this summer of '23. I watched your work with Peter Cowan and numerous others. Been applying the "hit" more with the right as Peter describes but I don't own it yet, at least not fully. But what has worked is "lagging" the club head and shoulders. This alone gives me time to move the hips toward the target and back up at the same time. The left leg presses down at first and then up for a nice finish. Yesterday was by far one of the very best sessions at the range. Striking my 9 iron so well that I was passing my 125 yd. target, with range balls. With a ProV1 on a warm day with little moisture in the air it would be loads of fun. But the point is my ball striking is back. I can hear it in the "hit" and see it in the ball flight and distance. All this with a very bad right knee and 72 years young. I can basically eliminated the right knee altogether, it has little to no function. Not so sure this will work with driver since it requires more depth in the back-swing thus more pressure on the right knee but I'm patient and will find a way to work around it.

[@user-ct3er1rw6f]

In my practice swing I almost always hit turf behind imaginary ball so this drill really helps remind me of forward movement necessary. People love to say ‘keep your head down’ but ‘keep your spine angle consistent’ would be a better comment, do you agree? Amazing you’re now on your way to another milestone 1.25 million followers and so well deserved.

[@DanielMaude]

💯 head naturally needs to move

[@maverick744]

Brilliant,, just brilliant. When I first started to watch these videos it messed up what little ball striking that I was doing. TBH your videos went to the bottom of my list. I quit watching all training videos and having been an athlete during my younger years I did what I always done to improve in sports. I started practicing 3-4 times a week at the range and took a different approach from what I always did since age 18 and that was to sometimes hit 3 large buckets in 20 minutes hammering away. When I practice I get a small bucket and instead of focusing on getting those 5 or 6 crisp shots I focused on my grip, setup and balance and quit swinging for the fence and was swinging 30 percent on every shot trying to make crisp contact every ball. It takes me about 2-3 hours to hit a small bucket and after one month I started to see huge improvements on the course. I’ve been playing golf since I was 18 and 49 now and for the first time in my life I was hitting the ball on demand. Played well for a month then fell back into the realm of inconsistency. Messed my head up because I thought I and I alone built a solid game and thought I was playing too much and that was my problem so then quit practicing and just played 18 holes a week and no dice. Im sorry for such a long story but I have to tell it. So here I was at the same place 3 months back looking at online training again and your video was the first one I saw and focused on your library on the areas I felt I needed help in then something happened.. the lessons from you that I watched 3 months ago that didn’t make sense and had me shooting worse made perfect sense..I was so excited that I was half asleep and at 2:30am grabbed my 7 iron and driver and went out in my yard and started swinging and was like OMG I couldn’t wait to hit some balls. The next day I went back to my routine and spent 3 hours hitting a small bucket and picked EVERYONE of them clean. Never done that. You have me playing the best golf of my life and finally shooting in the low 80’s.. if I practice more around the green I know I could shoot in the 70’s. I really think what happened when I first watched your videos and had such a negative experience implementing or understanding your lessons is because my foundation was weak and flawed. Then I started practicing and had built confidence in ball striking and had the proper grip and setup down and then came back to your lessons and not only could I understand you were trying to teach in your lessons they actually worked and fixed the bad habits I had fallen into! 4 months ago I was hitting my 7 iron 135-140 yds and that’s when I hit it clean. Now I hit it 165-170 and what’s crazy is I’m not swinging as hard. You taught me where your power really comes from. Your lessons have me shooting the best golf that I ever shot. The guys that I have golfed with for over 25 years kicked my ass every week and now I’m beating all of them by 7-8 strokes every time we play. Your methods are pure genius and the biggest lesson I’ve learned is that bad habits are hard to break and building good habits take time but to stick with it and it’ll be like a light came on I swear.. Thank you so much for you are the only one I watch anymore. This is a true story and happened the way I said it. Couldn’t make this up if I wanted to.. I still have problems with hitting on a uphill or downhill lie so hopefully you have a lesson on those. That’s my next mission.. cheers!

Thanks Danny, that’s incredibly helpful. It’s so annoying to mess up any approach shot or tee shot to a par three with an iron in your hand 🤦‍♂️. I’ve tried loads of things but I feel your pre shot set up tips today makes more sense, even narrowing your stance! I’ll give it a lash ⛳️👍

Another great instructional video. I've recently started playing again after 14 years since I picked up a club and your grip video and this one have made a huge impact on my ball striking at the range. I look forward to trying it on the course, thanks again.👍

[@cpat7065]

thanks Danny! I don't think anyone could ever be a great golfer without understanding this lesson. Got to strike the ball well with your irons to be consistent and take a divot in front of the ball. I like the idea of a few practice swings to check the blades of grass. It sounds so simple but don't do it at all. When I miss, I almost always am hitting ground about three inches behind the ball. I have been looking for tips to be more consistent and trying super hard to make sure I am taking those divots.

[@DanielMaude]

Love to hear how this helps

[@MpenziYako]

Thanks Danny wonderful demonstration as usual. You convey the feel so clearly. I wish the PGA schooling would point out the importance of demonstration to their teachers because so often you’re just told what to do rather than been shown. thanks again

Hi Danny, although I'm a single hcp player, the last month's I've lost my consistency when striking a ball. You just popped on my youtube and you grabbed my direct attention. Actually I had to go, but when you said, ''please look the whole video'', I was directly full on focus. And yes, this is a great tip. Now, I ask your permission to leave my hotel in Jakarta Indonesia, ha ha ha. Thank you Danny! Cheers, Olly (Amsterdam).

[@alangoudie2299]

EXCELLENT,VERY CLEAR & HELPFUL VIDEO. Many tips clearly explained which will definitely improve my strike. I am going to make a few notes on this video before looking at the fairway wood video. Danny highlighted & showed me what I was doing wrong. Many thanks to a GREAT COACH.

[@alangoudie2299]

Fairway woods & hybrid video also EXCELLENT. With golf I need to know what I have to do. After playing tennis & table tennis for 60 years I play those games almost without thinking. I just do it. Golf I find is less forgiving.

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Alan! Appreciate the support and feedback 😁🙌

[@stratovani]

After viewing this I will need to incorporate this into my preshot routine. Consistency of strike is my biggest problem, so I'm sure this will help me.

[@nathanwilliams2152]

I love Danny's videos. So clear, concise, and very good at demonstrating, not just explaining the process. Up to the 6-iron, my strike and ball flight is pretty consistent. 5-iron down, and especially with woods, it's not as good. And with driver, it's terrible!! Connection with the ball is ok, but the ball flight and control is all over the place!

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks Nathan 😁

[@nathanwilliams2152]

@@DanielMaude Had a session on the range yesterday applying this technique, and gained 10 yards with short irons, and 15 with mid-irons. Still working on getting that circle right for the woods and longer clubs. My right shoulder seems to activate early on the downswing - prompting a shovel-type motion (?) so I have an out to in path. I can control the fade sometimes, but need a better fix to get the high draw. My body is also doing the work, and there’s no snap with the arms and wrists. Can you help?

[@paulinecooke3450]

[@DenisEncontre]

I generally strike my irons correctly and I do take a divot in front of the ball but now and again I hit it fat. This is an excellent explanation why. I would make 2-3 practice swings making sure my low point is in front of the ball then still hit it fat. Can't wait to try this out on the course. Keep up the great work Danny!😀

Wonderful to hear

[@jimmykaczmarek1482]

This was such a great video! Been working on my weight transfer for a few months - it has definitely gotten better but clearly something was still "missing" for consistency as I often managed to hit the turf just behind the ball. After this lesson I did some practice keeping my chest the same distance from the ball and just like that I feel much more comfortable with my consistency. Thank you!!

[@DanielMaude]

Really kind of you to feedback Jimmy

[@carylamberta1571]

You are hands down the best KZbin instructor, short, sweet, and to the point! I really appreciate your videos Danny 🙌 How about one on always hitting off the toe please. I set up for a hossel rocket but still got it out the toe. Early extension, chicken winging? I don’t think so but guess there’s something wrong.

[@mikegriffin8403]

Thanx Danny for the tip to control depth of the divot. Just about every trainer reinforces the need to make a divot in front/after the golf ball. Except for one video that mentioned Tiger does not make divots, none discuss limiting the divot's depth to just a bruise. Which often leads to chunking the earth and hurting the distance. For a future video, please discuss how to keep the delofting of the club (hands in front of club head) from releasing too early (not casting) due to the downswing's momentum. Releasing or straightening the arms-delofted club too early causes hitting fat. In that, I have inconsistency with my timing/swing coordination.

[@DanielMaude]

Wonderful idea, I will do just that

[@WTSPC]

Strange I went to the range last night to sort out inconsistencies with driver and realised the problem as I was going forward in the downswing. Then realised this was irons as well so standing tall with good rotation made such a difference. In my DNA to squat thinking a way to compress the ball but in reality a sway. Great vid thanks Danny to keep tall.

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks for the feedback

you are the king of golf teachers bro love you . not in a gay way lol . i take grenade depth divots . totally inconsistent ! i have on my own moved to a more narrow stance and it might have worked for a min . then i have moved the ball back in my stance and that might have worked for a min . yesterday i shot a 52 on the front 9 and was fatting everything with grenades . i opened the face of the club and started to at least hit the ball down the fairway . i think as i have been turning my shoulders down to the ball in the back swing i havent been keeping the same distance to the ball because i fat and thin at times . i cant wait to try this thanks bro .

This is good stuff. I never used to take practice swings and struggled with consistency. I might hit it fat, thin, or flush but there was no telling which it would be. Recently I've been taking practice swings to see where I'm striking the ground in relationship to my setup and ball like Danny is recommending in the video. My ball striking has improved quite a bit since taking the time to do some practice swings which I had previously considered superfluous.

Excellent stuff Danny - the concept of the circle is so much more “relate-able” than the abstract language usually applied around swing planes. You really are an outstanding communicator. I’m a recent leg amputee trying to keep playing - have you ever conducted lessons with an amputee? If so, I’d love to come down albeit you’re a long way from my home in Cumbria!

[@JackRussell021]

I am still pretty much a beginner, and most golf instruction videos are over my head. But this one spoke to me - I still struggle with consistency, and sometimes I still "top" the ball. And sometimes I also "fat" the ball (that's not an expression I had heard before, but from the context I could immediately tell what it was that you meant). As soon as it warms up a little bit, I want to get out and try some of these thing at the range, and see if I can get some consistency.

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks for taking the time to comment Jack. Let me know how you get on 😁👍

[@JackRussell021]

@@DanielMaude I tried some of these things this past week when I went to the range. Now keep in mind that I am a total beginner, and my greatest problem is really consistency - it used to be the case that I had a far better chance of topping the ball than getting a good clean hit. This past week I was consciously trying to change my swing a little bit, and all of a sudden I was getting something like 60% of the shots being a good clean strike. Distance was nothing special, but for the most part the ball was going quite straight, so I was pretty happy with it. For the time being, I am going to try and do the same thing again a few times to see if I can really get that ingrained in my brain, and once the consistency is really up there, then I can think a little more about distance.

My fairway game has improved for the first time using your easy to follow techniques. Next is to work on my 3 wood! Thanks as always

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Gary 😁

[@cliffdcjr7422]

Well you too are learning things. Discovered this on my own. Maintaining clubhead height or chest to ground relationship is key to any club swing and contact. Lift up and you’ll top the ball. Drop down and you strike early before the ball and chunk a divot.

[@TheSports50]

Awesome Danny. Your the master. Going to take this to driving range to practice putting this in my mind and then the golf course

[@DanielMaude]

Love to hear how it goes

[@kasanj]

Always great cues from Danny. I watch one of his vids before every round. Best instructor on KZbin.

[@DanielMaude]

Very kind thank you Kasanj 😁

[@Big_J]

This is truly the core essence of a golf shot, low point, triangle arms, rotating around spine, great lesson. I recently got rid of my shanks and pull shots with focusing into these and with moving ball bit forward. Suddenly I have baby fade and much improved ball contact😀.

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you J 😁

[@ronj9460]

Brilliance and simplicity! Love this so much....

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Ron!

[@danielgrassman2175]

Another great video. The tip at the end was worth staying for!! Thanks, Danny!

[@DanielMaude]

Glad it was helpful Daniel

[@rickpostma7932]

Ball, turf, strike, easy as that. Simple and good lesson Danny

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks Rick, catch up soon

[@blakenorman4822]

Wow never thought of how changing youre arm seperation changes the arc, so good

[@DanielMaude]

Hope it helps

[@ianburton9223]

Just what I need - depth control has recently become wildly variable due to increased anxiety and feedback from that sapping confidence. Very logical and easily implemented approach.

[@DanielMaude]

Love to hear how you get on Ian

[@ianburton9223]

@@DanielMaude I had heard about this "brushing the grass" idea as a pre-shot routine from another channel but it concerned a chipping stroke. After a disastrous front 9 last Thursday (06/07/23) I added this brushing the grass idea to all my general area shots but with the objective of ensuring my Shot Scope X5 watch detected the club. Amazingly most of my tops and thins from the front 9 were removed from the back 9 score - an 8 shot improvement. Now I've seen this video I understand better just what this brushing the grass idea was doing to my setup. Simply on the basis of this video and my demonstrated benefits, brushing the grass will now be a permanent feature of my pre-shot routine.

[@johnwoods8671]

This in my opinion is your best video yet Danny. So good! Thanks John

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you John!

[@noellawrence3608]

Legit tried these drills at the range today as a beginner golfer. I still stuff it up but I am so much more confident using the irons and can actually make contact now. Which means I want to play more golf now!

[@robertthackston8504]

Danny, Great graphics , so simple to follow. your the best buddy. Hello from Georgia, USA

[@miked3535]

Getting back in the game. I'm thanful for these videos.

[@annkirkland4955]

Explained so well. Thank you, I’m back in the 70s.

[@DanielMaude]

Glad you enjoyed it! Ann 👍

[@ErnieSidmeyer]

I played my best round ever yesterday with 4bogeys 4par and a hm well not so good round on hole3. But I have been practicing all week on using my irons and chipping and putting. All that hard work really payed off yesterday with some great shots much thanks to your videoes. Yours truly Trond Egil ❤

[@DanielMaude]

Amazing to hear well done

[@royclose946]

Well done Danny 👏 😊

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks Roy ⛳️

[@craigsharp6581]

I’ve been struggling with this for a while now and not really sure what I was doing wrong. This helped clarify a few things and as always crystal clear explanations to accompany the flawless demonstration and application. Thanks Danny. Wish you were closer to NE of Scotland as I’d love a few lessons with your good self

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Craig!

[@jamesferreira5309]

Thank you very much for this simple tip to improve my ball striking

[@DanielMaude]

Really happy to help James

[@thesurgingmass]

Always get great insight from your videos! Love it.

[@DanielMaude]

@thesurgingmass thank you so much 🙏🏻

[@mattgordon3437]

Love this. You’re right- no one talks about this. Thank you, Danny! 😊

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks Matt!

[@DeanHouse]

cool you make it look so simple,Thanks Danny

[@DanielMaude]

You are very welcome!

[@e798d3]

Great reminder. Thanks for the video

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you 😁

[@oldthinkertube]

Danny it’s like you’ve read my mind and somehow know what exactly I’ve been struggling with each week. Indeed I’ve been striking the ground extremely hard lately. Not necessarily always fat, rather sometimes it happens at or ahead of the ball, but hard into the ground in either case. Thanks as always.❤

[@DanielMaude]

Happy to help 😁

[@shawncorley3229]

This is great as usual. I do the up and down thing quite a bit.

[@DanielMaude]

Love to hear how you get on Shawn

[@Runtowillthe]

Brilliant stuff thank you, I stopped playing golf for 5years coz my short game was so shocking I had ok long game and iron play but my short game just cost me shots week in week out. Just started playing again few weeks ago and followed your instructional videos and honestly what a difference obviously Im no tiger woods (yet ha ha)😆but my iron play and short game is so much better just working on the driver and woods again following your instruction. I find your instruction easy to follow and relatable so for fist time in 10years of playing the game I'm seeing real improvement. So just to say thanks as I've started loving the game again.

[@DanielMaude]

Brilliant well done and thank you for taking the time to comment 😁

[@antonymoller3741]

Awesome Danny, many thanks for a great video, the part where you say keep the radius of the circle the same makes great sense

[@DanielMaude]

👌

[@robertbrandywine]

@@DanielMaude But is it though? The size of the club head "circle" is determined by shoulder width, arm length, club length, and something else. That something else is the angle of the right arm with the shoulders. It isn't the same at address as it is as the ball swings through the ball and divot point.

[@tomtrainor6565]

Awesome video Danny. I’ve been struggling with my irons for a while. I’m trying to compress the ball but, I seem to be coming down to steep. I hit the ball first and it shoots off but, seems to go high and lose distance. My follow through slams the ground after the ball but, basically stops like a punch shot. I’m going to work on the tips in this video. Thanks

[@DanielMaude]

Hope it helps you Tom 😁

[@wrighty1957]

Great video Danny

[@DanielMaude]

Glad you enjoyed it
