EFFORTLESS Driver Speed Is Guaranteed With These Simple Steps

[@suncitypro1]

The best help for me yet! Move the grip first.

[@Socks-q9b]

Having watched you for several years from down here in NZ, I’ve seen you give this principle several times (speedboat) but this one is the best yet. Well done Chris and congratulations, you are improving all the time. And thank you!

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks really appreciate that 🙌

[@high_commando]

So I started golf 9 1/2 months ago. I was all over youtube taking everyones advice and tips. I eventually found you Chris and I am so thankful. Whenever you post a new video, I watch it ASAP to get your assistance with whatever the topic is that day. Combining you with a swing coach in person (and trust me, if you were close I'd book you haha) has gotten me to shoot my lowest score ever of an 86! I am not consistently breaking 90 yet, but I have weeks where I break it, then back to low 90s, which I embrace as of now. Thank you for being the GOAT of the KZbin Golf Scene💙

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks so much, really appreciate that and thanks for taking the time to comment Really glad the videos are helping 🙌

[@thomastrain7311]

Stick to watching one instructor. Especially as a beginner because different guys teach different methods and the techniques aren't always compatible. In fact they can be totally conflicting and do more harm than good. Hope this helps

[@maverick2671]

Fantastic lesson! Thank you.

[@pob2457]

The clubhead stuck to ground is great thought, love the alignment stick pull drill - will be using both for next Sunday's round - thanks!

[@JonSmith-c6d]

Don’t forget to penalise yourself two strokes after!! Rule 4.3a(6)

[@davidsmart8754]

Agreed!!! 💯 percent!!!

[@slowburn678]

Nice move. I am returning to golf after a 5 year layoff and concentrating on the feel after getting stuck in the mechanical arena for the last couple of months as I rebuild my swing without stressing my back and/or neck. I finally started feeling the actual swing last week and it ties in directly with what you are showing. It might be awhile before I return to single digits but glad I came across your channel as you illustrate exactly what I was trying to put in play. Thank you.

[@thomastrain7311]

I did the same about 3 yrs ago I returned from 5 yrs off. My advice is to stay patient and don't get frustrated. It was tough for me knowing that I used to break par regularly but couldn't break 90 consistently when I first came back. 3 yrs back in now and I'm back to a single digit hdcp and have broke par a few times. I had totally given up on that ever happening again, so if I can do it so can you.

[@artvoronkov4846]

Great video as always Chris, thank you very much! Looking forward to the next one 👏

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks 🙌

[@ronwinter45]

Great job Chris. Thank you

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks 🙌

[@williammakolin1432]

Thank you been working on increasing speed and distance this really works

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

It should really help, range is the best place to work in this, gives you a little more freedom too

[@AntonakisDemetriou]

Very good tip the pushing on to the back leg Chris because i always concentrated transferring my weight to the left leg. I'll be trying it at the range. Cant wait thanks

[@davidsmart8754]

Great lesson this hit home right away!!! 🙏

[@davidkarns9403]

awesome video!! Thanks Chris!!

[@ecjaye]

I'll be trying the align stick hack right now!

[@rockiesecho8518]

Great tips!

[@nyeboybevan8508]

Great stuff as usual. Seems obvious when explained!

[@scottcampbell2157]

I love your lessons. The way you present the golf swing is magnificent. Well done sir. P.S. do you teach in the U.S.A.?

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks so much, I do, but rarely unfortunately. I have been there coaching for a few years now, probably need to get a trip booked in

[@mecnez]

Body move to start swing! Thanks for the key. Cheers

[@slicerjohn1897]

Great tip well explained 👍.

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks 🙌

[@sheilasmith5323]

Thanks Chris! I feel like I definitely use my arms too much and try to force the club. Probably hitting way harder than I need to without great results . I will try this method out for sure. It feels hard to relax when you feel pressure to do everything right🤣

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Hope it helps 🙌

[@royclose946]

Well done Chris 👏 😊

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks Roy

[@Mike-wv2pn]

I move club first all the time good info

[@systemoptimizer3542]

In the two finger swinging test when do you start the upward pull to get the speed at the bottom, and would you say that same point in space of the club shaft swinging (during a normal golf swing) is a good place to start the upward pull and backward push as well? As an example let's say the shaft of the club is perpendicular to the ground on the downswing when you pull up in the two finger example would you also pull up at the same shaft position on a normal two handed golf swing? Say the hands reach a 9 o'clock position on the downswing and at that point the shaft where is perpendicular to the ground in the swing would you pull up then? Or say optimal pull up position is when the shaft was parallel to the ground with the two finger example, and say the shaft reached the same position when your hands reached 7 or 8 o'clock on the downswing - would you start the upward pull then?

[@mick19421]

Do I win the free lessons for spotting deliberate mistake. This is worth a try. Always thought you are one of the top Instructors on KZbin useful, clear and concise. Every time.

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks Mick… I must have missed that, where was the mistake?

[@SuperBadgeroo]

Focus was spelt wrong

[@mick19421]

Think it was Focus. Which somebody had also noticed, so easy on computer to get letters out of odrer.

[@thedonut7]

was watching this and regarding rory mcilroy “jumping” right before impact, just wondering, is that move considered an early extension move? is that just a result of him slowing his very fast hips to allow his hands to catch up? cheers for the anazing videos!

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

No as long as it’s timed well it’s ok, you have to extend to generate power so extension is not a bad move at all, Rory times it perfectly

[@Jarhead0331]

I was next to a golf pro assistant at range, my ballspeed is way down. He said I don’t have enough hip turn. When I try for more hip turn it’s a disaster, often hit the top of the driver. Gonna be a long season 😂

[@sgodlike7911]

Tee it down a bit. Start off with the ball barely peaking over the crown and work your way up over time. I tee it up waaaay down when I need to hit a tight fairway or there’s strong winds.

[@nickdavis772]

Would you recommend an extension of this by actually slightly lagging the club head in the takeaway? So the sequence would be body, hands, clubhead.

[@xerodeus2337]

That very last point is interesting, that you press forward and then sort of push back but stay behind the ball. That feels counterintuitive. How do you not over slide forward or stay too far back on the back foot? Would be cool to see a drill just on that mechanism alone. Push down into the ground but stay sort of up and back at contact?

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Yeah agreed that one section could well be a more in depth video. Essentially because the middle of you is behind your lead foot, when you push it pushed you back and up, which in tune moves the grip abs accelerated the club head Certainly one to add to the list of videos to film

[@xerodeus2337]

@@ChrisRyanGolf yeah! And maybe another discerning part of that video is with irons we still push down into that lead foot to generate power but we don’t fall back as much (I don’t think) because we want to hit more down on the ball. So how to keep those two things in mind. And then how do you blend the two with fairway woods? That’s how my mind thinks about it at least and could be totally wrong.

[@daviddinicola695]

I have been sort of wondering this as I just get into golf and tinker with my swing (never had a golf lesson but likely will soon). I do the slight hitch toward my backfoot at the start of the driver swing which is good, but I'm trying to figure out if & how much I should do this with my irons. I'm thinking slightly less and less as I get into the short irons, but keeping a similar rhythm. Guess I should should practice huh

[@jeffainger3240]

Would like to see how to consistently use fairway woods and hybrid please

[@jtbxl69]

3:45 “FOUCS on the shot”

[@systemoptimizer3542]

What do you think of the drill where you setup, cock the wrists up to rest the shaft on the area between your rear shoulder and your head, rotate your shoulders to their end of backswing position, and then extend your left arm out where you get separation between your hands and rear shoulder/head to feel what a good top of swing (with lack of arm abduction) feels like?

[@larrydavis8153]

Can you make this same move with other clubs?

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Yes absolutely, a little easier with the driver but does apply to all clubs

[@TheMicStandKingTV]

What phone app you use?

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Hey, there wasn’t an app on this video so not sure, I’d this something you have seen in a previous video?

[@TheMicStandKingTV]

Most common faults from 2 years ago. Not sure what a good one is nowadays? You ever going to do a video of latest phone monitors and how accurate they are??

[@humbleman2323]

I honestly believe flexibility is the key factor here. If you're not flexible in shoulders its not going look or feel as easy and relaxed.

[@twisted13]

My coach had me do drills for 2 months to get my weight on my lead side and now you are suggesting that I do drills to get my weight on my back foot? Is anyone else getting confused from watchung these different coaches on YT? Thanks for the video but not sure this drill is for me. Cheers✌️

[@cspicer33ssimons22]

It’s true. When you push back on your lead leg, you will move your weight to your trail side. Just like he’s showing. Before it gets to that point though. I counteract the vertical force going backwards, with my trail leg right foot instep or big toe. You have to stop the force from going backwards or you’ll fall over. Something that stops that force is your right leg. This will get you vertical force and rotational force. If you time it right, it will also keep you centered behind the golf ball. Pretty much like a baseball swing. Hope that makes sense

[@Michieldering]

As Pete Cowan calls it: hands follow arms.😊

[@mishellgagnon5771]

I wish it was that easy to swing a golf club. In the end, it's very hard to copy a golf pro: technique, strength, youth, agility, and TIMING are keys to their golf swing. We can always dream...

[@motty147]

After seeing several videos of yours on this, i still fail to get the feel I think i should be getting :-(

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

It’s a tough move to master for sure, just start slow and then build up as you start to ‘feel’ it happening

[@mikerichardson5022]

like the guys back in the day in their tweed jackets, lagging take away

[@ghrohrs2025]

You've literally taken a 2 minute concept and dragged it into a 10 minute slog. This makes me suspect you dragged this out into 10,000 too many words and repetitive demonstrations because you're trying to drag out our attention to pad your stats. Instead, treat your videos like a TED Talk and boil it down into crisp, concentrated information. We always appreciate when you don't waste our time. We'll be loyal when you cut to the chase and keep us hungry. This was an over-serving of bloat. Get back into the editing room and shorten this to about 2-4 minutes. Then I'll thumbs up.

[@rol1in0n20s]

Foucs

[@Lduke32]

I’m sorry Chris #1 tip look at target is kind of ridiculous. #2 start with body doesn’t work for me #3 pull alignment stick out of ground (really?). How do you have 400K subscribers?

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Clearly 400,000 people who like pulling sticks out from the ground 😁
