I often make the mistake of watching KZbin videos and then heading out to play. I watched this video last night and let it sink in. I hit a few balls at the range before went out and played and noticed a difference. Then went out and shot the best nine holes of my life. I think this tip is a game changer.
@EricScottGoldstein7 ай бұрын
A follow-up thought to this as well.. The whole issue of Axis Tilt has always aggravated me. It's never worked to try and drop my left shoulder and always created issues with hitting the ball "fat or thin". If I keep my left shoulder as the "radius of the circle" and keep my left shoulder in line with the ball (vs. shifting to the right), I believe I was hitting the ball WITH axis tilt much more accurately and straighter. I need to get out again and see if it was a fluke (as golf can often do to you), but again - best score of my life today - 10 pars in a row, almost every single GIR (or just 5-10 feet off the green), no lost balls, etc.

My dad at 79 years old has been “teaching” this for almost his entire life. However you need to have a great repetitive swing for it to work to perfection. You need to grip the club correctly, don’t change the position of the club face, if you do it WON’T work. Nothing like a tip from watching you tub then at the end they are selling a book. Learn to be a teacher of the game and not sell books.

He did not say directly to NOT lean back. Leaning back is to increat launch angle which many Ams need. He said leaning back changes your shoulder position so just be aware that the positon needs to be noticed accordingly. His method is for club path and face position. The lean is Launch angle. They are complimentary of each other and takes some practice to train your eyes and feels to a new world order.

I’ve never heard anyone break this down how you have. Pretty much every PGA Pro I’ve had lessons from, say to lean back to add more distance and power when you use driver. I won’t be doing that ever again! And no more foot reference setup. Had no ideal that it’s the front shoulder that is the center of the entire swing! Incredible, thank you sir!

I had been having problems with consistent strikes with driver and irons. As Blackcoud stated below, I have been told to add a back tilt to strike the ball with power. The problem was I was hitting solid shots about 75% of the time and the other 25% consisted of topping my driver and fat shots with the irons. By focusing on ball placement in relation to the leading arm instead of the feet, I experiences more solid contact with all my clubs. Thanks Rob!

Rob, just out of curiosity, on a mat I just set up with my driver with the ball just inside my heel. I then hung the club vertically from my shoulder/armpit and to my surprise, with a very small side tilt (as we should), my ball was about 1.5 - 2" too far forward. So..., this could give rise to a number of different shape shots from a pull, to a fade, to a bad slice ! This could also explain why mid handicappers sometimes hit a great drive (when by accident their ball position is correct) and then next time hit it anywhere (when ball position is even 1" out) Thanks for this - something I've never checked - along with thousands of other HC golfers !!

This video has been an eye opener for me. I struggle with back injuries and have noticed I often have to change my ball alignment on different days to hit my driver straight. I assumed it was due to my changing body position depending on how sore my back was, the shoulder alignment explains this perfectly. Now I’ve got something to be more conscious of when playing, may help to get a more consistent alignment overall too. Thank you!

I tried this on the range yesterday and got a good result. Apart from a couple of bloopers when I allowed my lead wrist to collapse (work in progress), my drives were ramrod straight.

I can't wait to try this. I have had a difficult time drawing the driver and I've always placed the ball just inside my left toe and so as not to get my body out in front of the ball and club head, I would lean my head back behind the ball. These "pointers" were picked up by other "instructors" and now I know why it has been almost impossible for me to draw the driver. Essentially the ball has been too far forward and despite trying to swing inside out, I still was swinging outside in and coming over the top. Small changes such as this can give big results. Can't wait to try it soon.

This makes a lot of sense and will definitely try it out. How does it work with hitting up on the ball? A lot of instructors say the ball is forward to hit up on it. If you're hitting up then you've gone past the pivot of your shoulder and that must mean you're starting to swing out to in. So how do you hit square and up at the same time?

Hi Rob -- super video. I think it rivals (at least for me) the swing hard/stop fast, which I thought was the best ever. That said, I already took today's thought to the range and noticed my first few swings had the feeling of too much right hand trying to find the low spot. However, after about five swings, I felt a much more 'left arm' -- I'm thinking that's way better -- swing and really better low point and strike. From here: how about a more in-depth video on aim? Not so much alignment, but 'aim,' as I tend to either get my shoulders more open or closed with this new positioning. Again, great video -- Tom in Texas

I spent years trying to follow this type of instruction , i fully understand the relationship of in to out and vice versa , i also understand the consequence of hitting up or down and face angle . It took a long long time though to understand how my body creates power through the hitting area and the difference this creates between how i address and actual outcome , without an understanding of low point AT impact this instruction is at best food for thought , unless you swing at 12 mph you are going to create a very different position through impact than at address and your centre of gravity / low point WILL change , suss this out , suss out how your wrists fire and suss out how you best create speed repeatably through impact , this will give you your shape for each club with one swing motion . From there its just tinkering to gain the most control and best tempo / speed for you . I dont contradict any of the facts stated but its generic iron byron stuff and will only suit 50% at best . Faders fade , and drawers draw . I fade ( or right spin ) wedges , draw irons (unless tee’d up)and fade woods , hybrids i get to choose shape 🤷🏻♂️ I do enjoy your content though .

Great stuff. I’m going to be more cognizant of my lead shoulder in the future. I personally (thru trial/ error and watching many videos) am able to shape the ball with my stance. Fade = right (trail) foot slightly forward of lead foot and vice versa for a draw. For more dramatic results I move the ball forward (fade/slice) or aft (draw/ hook)i n my stance.

Great explanation of ball position. Just going down the S&T path. Already more compression. But getting sloppy with my ball position is hurting me. Crazy that your slice swing didn’t look that bad, but how much position affected the result

This is EXACTLY my problem. I was completely confused about set up. I flush my irons by not doing much and feeling on top of the ball. With the driver I feel that I’m making a bunch of adjustments with my feet, shoulders, ball placement etc and I’m all over the course. I will try this out asap!

Started doing this two weeks ago and I’m driving it so much better. I get positive comments from other players each time I play. Try it

Are there any tips you can give to tell if the ball is under your lead shoulder? Standing over the ball it’s hard tell if it’s directly under my lead shoulder or to far forward/back.
