Easiest Golf Swing For Senior Golfers - New Discovery

[@carlosferrer6952]

You are by far the best instructor that I have come across.

[@DanielMaude]

Really happy to help Carlos

[@bobscott8016]

I've watched many many golf instruction KZbin videos but yours are without doubt the best and easiest to follow. As a 73 year old golfer I find your seniors lessons incredibly helpful

[@DanielMaude]

I love helping senior golfers Bob

[@goravens18]

@@DanielMaude just joked with my mother in law that you must have heard our conversation yesterday about improving seniors’ driving distance. Brilliant as always and looking forward to her feedback from this lesson. Thanks Danny!

[@neildenny]

Brilliantly communicated once again. Love that looking behind drill. You could call that one "The Owl"

[@DanielMaude]

I like it 😁

[@Digital_Photog1995]

Great tips!! I, as a senior golfer at 78 years young now have senior shafts on all my irons and regular shafts on my driver, three wood and four hybrid. Got fitted for COBRA F-MAX SUPERLITE irons. Previous clubs were Callaway S2H2 steel shafts. Glad I made the change

[@DanielMaude]

That’s great Fred, thanks for sharing

[@DonaldAronson]

Thanks!

[@DanielMaude]

Pleasure Donald

[@mpham8911]

I can't wait to use these great tips. Your Dad's swing is very relatable to what I am experiencing now.

[@danielgriffis5478]

I always enjoy seeing your relationship with Dad

[@ssparko7776]

Love the steering wheel concept and the hammer throw idea. Reminds me of the catapult concept. Your dad's swing looks pretty good these days!

[@DanielMaude]

Yes, I think it was 2016 when I came up with the Catapult Method , it’s amazing how many other KZbin coaches are using it in their teachings

[@ssparko7776]

@@DanielMaude I didn't grasp the idea til 2 years ago or so but it allowed me to swing much more easily and it carries me to a full finish with no effort. The hammer throw is basically the same just a different visual. Thanks Danny. Keep up the good work.

[@wamo62]

I am just returning to the game after 25 years. I have been struggling with the driver slice - like every single drive. I played nine holes yesterday after studying many of your videos over the past few days. For the first time ever, I hit three beautiful slight-draw drives straight down the fairway. It was an amazing feeling seeing that kind of rapid improvement in my driver skill. I also had three great sand saves as well, all because of your content. Danny, thanks so much for what you do!

[@donaldschmidt2990]

Absolutely fantastic swing thought!! As simple as imagining someone calling your name behind you. You are 1000 percent spot on Danny. The vast majority of golfers are so obsessed with steadiness and stability they forget to move. They suffer from self imposed "Rigor Mortis." That blame falls to a large degree on the teaching pros of today. They preach the Golfing Gospel of "Static This" and "Stationary That" to the extent that players are bound in chains. Or even Mummified!! Fortunately for your viewers Danny, you don't fall among that brethren. Your steadfast belief in playing with freedom can help unshackle any player. The greatest adage in golf is that the ball "Doesn't know who's hitting it." Players who outperform their peers simply think in freer terms. Age or gender has nothing to do with it. Thank You for reaffirming that indisputable truth. Keep sending us more great content.

[@DanielMaude]

That’s very kind Donald, freedom all the way

[@rmr786]

I'm one of your subscriber to your channel..I consider you are my personal coach..tqvm

[@wilhuizinga5259]

Danny, thank you so much for five fabulous simple tips for me as senior golfer.

[@DanielMaude]

Pleasure Wil, have a great weekend

[@ianmcmillan2634]

Thanks Danny. I am 63, Senior? don't feel so as still flexible. Never been a very long hitter. What I can say these and similar drills you've supplied have me driving the ball further and straighter than I did 10 years ago. Also love watching your Dad's progress.

[@DanielMaude]

So good to hear Ian

[@susandowning4615]

Brilliant video again Danny. Just love your dad and your relationship xx

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Susan 🙏

[@stewartmhyre1528]

Danny, as a senior 61 year old golfer who just started playing 8 months ago I love your videos. I’ve learned so much keep up the great instruction!

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Stewart

[@RosevilleGary]

Danny, thanks for another fantastic video. I'm 68 years old and pretty strong. Just had a lesson two days ago and he stopped me from starting the backswing by turning my hips first. He was right about that but he did not help me with a trigger to start the backswing. I played after that lesson but still was struggling. I saw your video today and then went to the range. I was using the one swing thought of turning around to see who was calling me. Oh my God, that is the best I have it the ball in a long time and with that swing thought my swing felt very fluid and easy. Thank you very much Gary

[@lawrencecantwell2278]

Danny, once again great video. As a senior, I will work on the tips you have provided. Thanks.

[@gilles888]

Some of the best golf tips ever, all the tips described are all the one which has fixed all my issues for accuracy and performance, thank you very much Danny

[@FlankerJackChannel]

Not exactly a senior golfer but I only just started playing golf this year at 48 years old. Fairly strong fairly athletic but this video hits exactly where I'm having the problems. I feel like I need to watch this video before every round of golf and practice session. Thank you.

[@DanielMaude]

Love to hear how you get on

[@davebenson1021]

I tried the turn and look behind and was amazed as to how different it felt and the flex it gave me ! Now, I will practice before putting this technique to use as my back is already stretching muscles I didn't know I had but I am excited !! Clever use of examples (as the steering wheel) in your video. Puts things in a different frame of mind.

[@franciscoarista]

I have followed your tips and the driver was much more stright and long. Thanks a lot. Regards from Spain

[@DanielMaude]

[@rosshinson3929]

Hi Danny , I really enjoy watching your videos ....... I am getting ready to turn 76 ye😢ars young and enjoy the game of golf . I have been told my tempo is very smooth but get discouraged that I can't hit the ball as far as the younger players I play with . Your video on easiest swing for seniors is amazing........ glad you now my only instructor I will watch from now on .

[@michaelkirkbright4723]

Danny you’re a genius. I tried 4 of your 5 tips. “Throwing the hammer” what a sensation! For a 75 year old you’ve made my day. Thanks😍

[@howardphillips8513]

Tip 4: Yes, yes, yes! Subtle, detailed analysis of what really happens in the golf swing shows that through the hitting zone the spine of the right-handed golfer moves to the right, not the left as it would if the golf swing were like the Olympic discus thrower’s movement. This can be seen in film from behind the golfer, as seen in KZbin film of Sam Snead and Jamie Sadlowski. The ‘envelope’ for that component may be the discus thrower’s movement. Unfortunately, we tend to want to help hit the ball further by moving the bodyweight forward throughout the swing, right foot to left foot, but that just make us stiff. I have never heard any other teacher refer to the Hammer thrower’s movement. I don’t think it is widely understood. Tip 5: Yes, indeed, but it is so hard to let go of cherished, old, expensive clubs!

[@Hplarrialb]

You've found your niche--there are a lot of seniors out there who will benefit from these excellent videos, your dad is your secret weapon, that constricted swing you showed is like most of mine. thanks!!

[@DanielMaude]

Really kind thank you

[@johnschwartz1536]

Your five tips to senior golfers Danny were exceptional! I, being a senior golfer, took each one to heart. On occasion, I do not get the desired width in my backswing and this does limit my distances. I do like the "Power Plane" concept and the "Hammer Thrower" analogy! Like your dad, I have made changes in my golf bag and gear. I have gone to a much lighter driver shaft (regular with 50 grams) fairway woods -49 grams, 3, 4, 5 hybrids-65 gram shafts. Face balanced putter. I've changed from steel shafts to graphite shafted irons and woods. Now, golf again is a pleasure to play!

[@johnschwartz1536]

I used this "power plane" today Danny and it was powerful and I definitely gained distance with both irons and woods! I will now incorporate this into my normal routine! Best score I've had in months. Thank You Danny!

[@nicwp7320]

great video, i have let my left heel lift a little and it has helped me so much, more light footed give you motion

[@DanielMaude]

Great idea Nic

[@ryanmacfarlane7465]

most valuable swing thoughts from any teacher ever! Love seeing wrong way/right way

[@bobt5778]

One of your very best videos for sure! The tilted plane graphic was terrific! I think swinging back and forth on a flat plane is simple for most people. However when you are tilted forward at address, the back and forth motion starts to appear as up and down, and weird things begin to happen. And it's still just the same motion.

[@DanielMaude]

Yes, it just takes a little practice and maybe some feedback from a camera

[@AndrewDaniel-n8v]

Hi Danny , I started watching your channel 3 weeks ago and thank to your driver tips I have increased my distance from 150 to 200 years , can’t wait to try more of your lessons Cheers

[@DanielMaude]

That’s awesome to hear Andrew

[@peterjackson5809]

Danny, one of your very best videos. It works! Tried on the course yesterday. What really helped me was the steering wheel tip and the correction to open shoulders.

[@DanielMaude]

Happy to help Peter 😁

[@dantheman1281]

Danny, another great video lesson. As a 76 year old I appreciate the journey that your wonderful dad is on with your help. I still carry a 14.2 with pretty good distance (225 average drive), but I got fitted 4 years ago and replaced everything in my bag. It DID make a big difference, so you hit the nail on the head with your last tip. Thank you for all of the lessons for us seniors who still love the game.

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Dan appreciate the support 😁⛳️

[@kurzhaarguy]

Really superior teaching. With any discipline-be it mathematics or stone masonry-gifted teachers find ways to hear, see, and feel the lessons. We all learn in different proportions through different media. When you cover them all in an understandable way, it really sticks. I’m a 62 year-old beginner. I can’t tell you how helpful your coaching is. Anyone who doesn’t view in is missing a wealth of information. Thank you, once again!

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Khrzhaar 😁 appreciate the feedback and support 👍

[@brucevanwyk3257]

Great tips!!! Thank you for showing us how we can continue to enjoy playing golf well into our senior years. The game is more then just playing, it is about who you get to play it with. My wife just started playing last year. We are both in the senior stage of life. She enjoys getting out on the course for some exercise. We enjoy being able to play together. Great to see you and your dad playing together!

It was only a 9 hole summer league game but I scored 22 points off 9 hcap with a 40 yard chip in on the 8th for a birdie and 4 points. Used the looking behind trick to get a better position and now hitting longer shots.

The grafhics are amazing and really adds clarity.

[@bocelle8341]

Thank you very much. I have been watching your channel for a while.. The biggest reason is I can relate to some of our tips. Some of your lessons finally made something in my brain to click on. Though I am still working on it, most of my drives in my last round were longer and straighter. I was actually had the longest drive on most of the holes. Now I will keep working with your tips and now have to start over with my irons.

[@StumpkillerCP]

Thank you. The look-behind exercise is a great tip.

[@DanielMaude]

Thanks Stump 😁

[@golfislife9150]

It really does

What a great Tip Danny!!!! Thanks, Stavros

[@DanielMaude]

Pleasure Stavros 👌

[@stratovani]

Excellent video for us old guys. I recently bought a Mizuno ST-Z 10.5° driver, and using your tips from one of your recent driver videos I've finally learned how to properly hit a driver. Yesterday in my round I was able to hit (for me) some monster drives! One of my goals for this year is to hit my driver 240 yards consistently, and I now feel I'm on my way to doing this. Thanks, Danny!

[@ronvanlierop6142]

Danny, as always your videos motivate me to go straight to the driving range to apply your tips. And the nice thing about that is that it helps me a lot to improve my golf game

[@DanielMaude]

That’s wonderful Ron

[@mattcristino9804]

Hi Danny, Good stuff as always. I enjoyed the example you used to look back as if someone was calling you. These tips are good checks to remember when I am out on course. Have a good week

[@DanielMaude]

And you Matt, all the best

[@GerryMcGrane]

Excellent video Danny with easy to follow instructions / explanation. On the equipment front, I recently purchased the new Ping 430 with the lighter shaft and grip and am now hitting the driver with confidence for the first time in a long, long time!!! Not cheap I know, but a good investment for me as the driver was my biggest obstruction to scoring! Looking forward to the summer with even more runout!

[@DanielMaude]

That’s wonderful to know Gerry

[@buckijunki8167]

Love this video. Just the other day I said to my husband, "Maybe we should look into getting some new golf clubs". I play with a set I bought in 1991. I am sure the technology of clubs has advanced as has my age. 😝

[@DanielMaude]

It certainly has 😁

[@stratplayer10]

Fantastic video for any golfer, but makes so much sense for a senior golfer. Great simplicity to your approach and your passion for our game. A must watch! Well done Danny.

[@DanielMaude]

Thank you Raymond 😁

[@billbond1028]

Hi Danny. Clearly introducing your dad as the star of the show has hit the spot for similarly aged golfers with the continuing desire to get better, me included. Can I assume that this swing plane/turn applies to all shots (except pitch & chips) hence avoiding what I term as quitting or not commiting to the shot and all the frustration that follows the result. Bye the way, Maude senior is invited down to Somerset for a friendly 4 ball....with me and some mates. Bill

They really do Alan, you don’t need to go out and buy a whole new set usually just take a few clubs away and add one or two

[@chrisreynolds1811]

Hi Danny, really great instruction. You mention your dad a lot and we were great friends, played at South Leeds with you also a couple of times. Give him my regards. Keep up the good work, Chris Reynolds

[@AVX60]

Great coaching video, keep it up Danny 👍 You’re Dad’s becoming a KZbin star 😁

[@jamiesloan7259]

You can watch people loosin up with practice swings, and the freedom of motion throughout their body is effortless. Their turns look great. They shift their weight beautifully. Their finish looks good. Tempo is great. And, they can skim the grass every single time, on the perfect plane. However….. In comes that scary little white ball, and they’re literally scared stiff. They don’t even look like the same person. They get HYPER FOCUSED on the ball, and it becomes their target. Just relax people, and swing the club through the hitting area. You’d be pleasantly surprised with the results. Great video.

[@rickrisatti6029]

You're the best! Wish I had l seen your videos before I visited my sis in law and played Cantebury..You've made playing I'm my senior years so much more fun

[@TheSports50]

Great instruction Danny. Danny it was you idea of extending by backswing that has helped me really start hitting the ball with power. The idea someone says hi and you look over your shoulder with your neck. I was able to do this easily. So I have been doing practice repetitive swings works on this idea with backswing and your lever idea. The swing feels so good and smooth thanks to your drills that I do at home and the range

[@jackm1591]

Hello Danny, I've subscribed and followed your videos for years. Thank you very much for all of the great golf tips. After watching today's video - I stumbled upon your video of recommended daily golf exercises at the Peter Cowan facility. The tips are great. As a 65 year old with a stiff back, I go to my Chiropractor once a month for a tune up :). He has drummed into me that when we stretch and exercise we should always exercise the opposite side of our body as well, to keep the body balanced in strength and flexibility. He also advises that after every other hole while on the golf course to swing a long iron in the opposite of my normal direction about 5-6 times. Again, for the purpose to help keep the body balanced - it has helped me finish 18 holes with less stiffness and discomfort in my back. I just wanted to share in case it may help some of your students. Thanks again for improving my golf game. CHEERS! Jack in the States

Don't be too hung up about trying ladies and/or senior shafts folks. Really helps with ball speed and closing the face more at impact.

[@rw_golf6387]

Fantastic video Danny. I especially love the visual aids and the idea of the hammer throw. Once you trust this idea and let it go the result is pure ball strikes in the center of the club. No more toe shots!!! Thanks for all you do for the golfing community.

Thanks Danny. Another great video and I'm one of the seniors this is aimed at, so I find this particularly helpful. Great to see you supporting your Dad to such good effect. Other teachers emphasise 'shallowing' and 'in to out', but you don't. Can I ignore those subtle deviations in the swing?
