Every video of yours is gold. It's a crime you don't get more views.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you! Fingers crossed they grow more!

[@donaldschmidt2990]

In a further comment, Giles, you are not only knowledgeable but extremely articulate in how you express your teachings. I promise any viewer that sees your videos once will be a fan forever. You are a rising star in golf instruction.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you Sir!

[@donaldschmidt2990]

This is the best video I've seen on power and control with the driver!! From the grip and the takeaway, to impact and into the follow through. Perhaps the best part is when you say make sure that the grip is set to the side and not placed as you set the club to the ground. How many of us have fallen into that snake pit?! Believing we're correct as we set the club into dozens of different flawed positions!! This one factor automatically improves the swing. Then, you dig deep into the feels that make each segment come alive. The feeling of extending from the left foot and leg and spiraling tall in your backswing. Your point of how players tie themselves into a straight jacket of static positions is spot on. They fail to realize that by placing themselves in the most athletic position possible, the sequence of extending and leveraging the ground can happen automatically. As an extra bonus, you then have the student do the impact leveraging drill. This ensures that from this extended position, the player fully utilizes all the power at his command. THIS VIDEO IS TOP NOTCH!! It makes a player want to jump off the couch and run to the practice range. Keep this great content coming.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Amazing! Glad it gave you that feeling

[@ahmadghanem2414]

Best golf instructions ever . Thoughtful, honest and knowledgeable

[@samitos1]

Thank you! For past 3 years I’ve struggled with losing speed & distance. Can’t even say how many videos I’ve watched during that period while trying to find out where that bottleneck is. Then seeing this video and especially the grip part. Instant results!!! Previously my drives were 220-240 yds (carry) with spinrate + 3500rpm. Pretty sure you can already visualize that ball flight. After watching this videa, baby draws with a 270 carry, 290 total and spin between 2200-2500. I can only say massive Thanks for posting this video and helping me get my lost distance back!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Wow that makes it all worth it! So glad I could help you!

[@johnschwartz1536]

Although I have viewed this video before Giles and gave it a like, I never commented on it and will do so now. I have to admit, after viewing the grip section, I've been gripping with the left hand ever so slightly off the side of the shaft. My right hand grip is as it should be. I have gone back and made the correction to the left hand and the swing feels a lot more solid. I like your recommendation for getting the legs involved in the swing. Likewise in getting the hips involved by "squeezing the glutes" together. The drill you showed to do this will be one I will start doing. Both of these recommendations plus the grip correction will be worked on in order for me to attain more clubhead speed. Well Done As Always Giles!

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you John! Hope this gives you that added speed you’re looking for

[@garymacdonald2596]

Hey Giles, you're really knocking it out of the park with these instruction videos. For myself, I know I need to work on the last tip you discussed today. Will be trying it out when I get to the sim later in the week. Thanks!

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you Gary! Hope it helps you with your speed!

[@donaldschmidt2990]

Giles, I found this video again after watching a veritable parade of your other videos. Ironically, I think your best speed suggestion is your club to the belly button drill. You advised me to do this past parallel and the coil is INSANE. And to think I thought I was coiling before!! There is no contest. That is the best speed tip ever. By the best instructor I've ever seen.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you Donald! Great to hear the drills are helping

[@ejcarey6679]

Hey Giles I love your videos and you clearly have the heart of a teacher, so bravo mate. I occasionally will start shanking balls with short wedges 54 & 58 degree clubs for no explicable reason ! As you might imagine this is a confidence killer and drives me nuts. So, how about a video on the causes and cure of this problem. Keep up the great work.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you! Means a lot to hear that! I’ll add that video to the list but biggest reason can be something as simple as too much tension

[@JeffKnapp-ms4ov]

Great videos and instruction! Thank you for putting this content out there. I’m looking forward to using the drills you provided and will comment later on improvements I see using them. Thanks! I love golf 👍🏼 and appreciate you working to add to peoples success so they can enjoy it even more

[@Gilesgillgolf]

No problem! I’m glad you’re benefiting from my content and people are finding value in it

[@pastorjason4337]

Man I am really struggling right now, I love to listen to you explain things. You are doing great, keep it up. Love to see some on course stuff from you.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you Jason! Hope your game turns around soon!

[@KenH-y3j]

Great stuff.....would you happen to have a video on how to set up to the ball to a square position? Walk into the target?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Are you talking about body alignment at address?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Or pre shot routine?

[@twisted13]

Another Great Video. Will gives this a try. Cheers✌️

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you mate! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@underworldevents265]

Love the video Giles. Can you please do a video on the difference between having the shoulders open at impact vs square at impact? Thanks!

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you! Will add it to the list

[@vinhgolf]

also enjoying your video, easy to follow. I have a question on the backswing, while you feel you push up with your right leg, do you still have a bend on the knee or straighten out completely at the back swing.?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Still need to maintain some knee bend in the trail leg

[@vinhgolf]

got it. thank you@@Gilesgillgolf

[@Gilesgillgolf]

@@vinhgolf no problem

[@garyvale8347]

great video...I am someone who sufferers with creating any power in my Driver swing......going to give these tips a try..........also , can you tell me if I should be swinging upwards towards the right of target or dead straight....thanks ........

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Great to hear you enjoyed the video! Depends what path you’re trying to achieve. A neutral swing has a slight arc to it but you can manipulate it more to the right or left

[@edogaktop]

This is gold. Subscribed, thanks. Your advice on getting taller during backswing - does that apply to irons/hybrids/fairway woods as well or is it exclusive to the driver?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you! Yes it’s the same feeling for all clubs but you might exaggerate it less with shorter clubs

[@dennishammer8537]

For us senior golfers, clearing the hips and squeezing the checks might not be that achievable, do you have any tips / advice for us? Bernhard Langer comes to mind, what he's able to achieve at 65. Thanks.

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Believe it or not but the first tip I heard this was from Freddie couples. For senior players squeeze the cheeks is a great thought and they would then have less rotation to match their flexibility levels

[@firstname2072]

Im going through a swing and grip change at the minute and dropped from 120mph to 105 but it’ll be worth it in the end when I get the speed back, this video will help for sure

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Hope you get that speed back up soon!

[@seanduncan8422]

Great video Giles!

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you Sean!

[@GSXR0311]

Do you use these techniques when using irons too or just driver?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

With both!

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Thank you!

[@Graham-bg3ij]

Be mindful about clearing your hips through impact too much clearance or opening of the hips from the upper body will reduce speed - Good foot work is my biggest key thought when I’m working on speed - but well done - information on the grip was good

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Good footwork is key

[@franzose1967]

I create 3800 rpm with an +1.5 AOA , because my dynamic loft is too high. I'm scoopoing - any idea to solve it?

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Open clubface, arms stuck behind body or lack of control of trail wrist

[@franzose1967]

@@Gilesgillgolf thank you very much. It's the trail wrist. I don't have flat wrist at impact of the lead hand. Any drill how to fix this. With the irons it is ok.

[@GolfingInParadise783]

Stopped playing 10 years ago, just started again, been given +4. I’ve gone from around 118 with a driver to about 110. Crippling watching these young guys hitting it 40 by me 😂😂

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Every young gun now seems to hit it a mile 😂

[@GolfingInParadise783]

@@Gilesgillgolf brutal isn’t it😂😂 I’m 35, when I was trying to make it out on tour 12-13 years ago there was hardly anyone with the mindset of ‘just bomb it’ everyone was trying to keep it in play, shape the ball ETC. To hit the ball long you need somewhat decent fundamentals anyway so they tend not to be that wild off the tee either

[@Gilesgillgolf]

@@GolfingInParadise783 exactly it’s one thing hitting it long and it’s another trying to control it

Every sport starts from the feet up

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Exactly!

[@Fishng8r]

Disagree, Never raise your head. Rotating the hips and straightening the right leg while bending the left leg is necessary but raising the head changes your posture/setup position. Trying to require that position during the downswing, once you have lost it is all but impossible. In your demonstration your head shifted to your right side and slightly even farther right thru impact but never raised up. Good swing...

[@Gilesgillgolf]

Go look at Bryson after making his massive speed gains. You will see the head raise up due to him using his legs.

[@markbush6905]

Giles, what shaft do you have in the driver? Thx. Love the videos.
