Fabulous tip......any more Pete Cowan's gems

[@stuartmonteith2547]

Hi there ! I’m a bit a KZbin golf nerd and have probably over loaded with tips on all aspects of the golf swing tips. I’m a bit of a tinkerer and so end up with far too many thoughts going through my head before even addressing the ball. Watched the latest video And so decided to take it out on the course this morning. Just concentrated on just that tip and shot a 78 gross on a par 71. The best round I’ve ever had. It may not work every time but I’m only going to concentrate on that one thing for the foreseeable future. 9 under my handicap , what a result ! 👍🤞👍 one of my playing partners actually walked after 12 holes as he could not compete.

[@David1131955]

That seemed like a really helpful session for you Andy. Great stuff!

[@tonymiddlehurst8438]

Just had the exact same lesson from my pro to swing much more down the line, I was going round the back before baseball-style without realising it, changing to more down the line felt weird to start with but there's been a huge difference in ball-striking. Keeping the hands higher at the top has been a big change too for me, again felt v strange to start with but now feels really natural and for the first time in a long time I'm trusting my swing again. I'm even getting out of bunkers now, which I haven't been able to do for years.

[@brucei8767]

It's 10pm here and I can't go to the range!! :-) So very logical.

[@seegarsmkr]

Andy, you picked a good one. I love AC's channel. This tip has helped me immensely with my striking and accuracy especially with approaches. When I do it I succeed when I forget I am frustrated with the left and especially the right pulls/draws.

[@morganthompson4705]

Wow!!! Watched this last night and took it out onto the course today. What a difference!!!! Thank you

[@dthompson1234]

Just tried this out on the range. Wow! really helped me out on the backswing/takeaway. I was flushing the ball and hitting some amazing shots. Worth a try. Sounds a little unconventional but it really works. Anxious to take this to the course. Thanks!

[@revellien]

I had a sudden case of the shanks and this sorted it virtually straight away as the face came through square.

[@drumhardmay4322]

Got this tip a year ago from a Pete Cowan video and straightened my driver up, gives you confidence to swing harder as you know the face will be close to square 99% of the time.

[@ronj9460]

loved this, Thanks fellas

[@chrisjeffers7300]

THE best tip ever! I use to sub to Carter but his lessons were un-understandable to me, to me he was blathering off the top of his head. I just could not follow the plot. SO I am so so so glad I stayed with this video. I use to have a B Flight Long, C Flight Short Game and F flight iron-play. This simple short tip gave me laser accuracy with my irons. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT. I am still shocked to see the ball land precisely where I aim!

[@kajomelimaelvitrev]

Great tip. Thank you

[@darinsuchon3883]

Love what you’re doing and why you are helping the rest of us! Keep that Sh!t up

[@stevering7799]

Love this channel!

[@VonTwinzig]

I’d seen this Pete C tip before, but forgotten all about it. Nice one, Andy. You looked genuinely shocked after that first shot. Keep ‘em coming.

[@bluenose8442]

Having a go at that tomorrow. Won’t do it until I’ve warmed up after a few holes.

[@chadharman1865]

Really simple and easy drill, awesome content

[@grandpagolf]

Good channel, very useful. Had heard of the Cowen towel tip in the past and genuinely apologize for having forgotten to keep it in mind anytime I grip my club handle, sorry 🥴. It IS a wonderful, easy-to-master fundamental.

[@lenardtan7169]

Great Advice tips

[@Oscar99929]

Hey thank you. Took this to the range and really liked it because it kept me from having too many take away thoughts on my backswing. I also tend to take it too much inside. By the end of the bucket, I was hitting fades! LOL

[@roberttudor455]

Excellent tip .....

[@chrisbrader7720]

Exactly what I’m being taught at the minute!👍👌

[@user-ku3ix2nl1l]

Interesting because it’s just like a pre-set cricket stance and how I used to set up…..ie Graham Hick 👌

[@TheGolfTipsGuy]

Nice work 👏

[@petervandepoele8305]

OMG, this really works. Thank so much!!! Best tip ever:::

[@andrewrussell1830]

Great work as always! Just wondering have you tried the GEM ? Andy seems to love it ? Perfect for yourself to try ?

[@TherevenuegroupNet]

Does this tip apply to chip and pitch shots as well as to a full swing?

[@bassmasta9117]

This is a Pete Cowen and Rory tip so you know it works

[@southpawjohnny5969]

Very Interesting

[@matt_sallie]

Such an interesting drill 😊

[@robster230]

Adding my name of people who will be straight down the range with this one! I saw Pete mention this in a James Robbo vid and there was so much in that video I forgot all about the "wringing" grip

[@bjm1711]

I’m a little confused. The shot tracking lines indicated a fade each time. Does that mean you were still coming over the top a tad which resulted in the fades? I know your usual swing is out to in. Was Andy’s tip designed to stop the fade or improve the quality of strike? No criticism intended And. Love your content and will love your forthcoming new style videos.

[@brianmann7035]

So the wringing of the towel starts at set up and remains through the swing? Great lesson

[@davidtaylor8687]

The danger with working the hands against each other like that is it may increase lower arm tension or grip pressure (a swing killer)...well, it would for me anyway!

[@theythinkimmadyouknow]

yep, I saw this tip from Pete Cowan and tried it and it wrecked my swing by giving me massively too strong grip pressure.

[@MarkG_603]

@@theythinkimmadyouknow I could see that, though Andy stated that the drill is started with an exaggerated feel. As Harvey Penick so eloquently stated, "if I tell you to take an aspirin don't take the whole bottle". 🙂

[@theythinkimmadyouknow]

@@MarkG_603 yeah, turns out I must be allergic to Asprin! I have found this with every tip from Cowan tbh, guess he is used to working with good players not 17 HCI like me!!!

[@user-wm2zf8jp3g]

Jake Hutt has a similar drill that I like better. Push the left hand down, while pulling right hand up. Doesn’t create the tension that this might.

[@windyknot2094]

How about you visiting Steve Petersen ( Eureka Golf) at Peebles Golf Club.

[@davedaggitt6926]

driving range beckons for this one

[@ayotollaofrockandrolla7219]

Hahahja . Down the rabbit hole you guys go again

[@timmansfield3935]

About time that golf teachers started offering and understanding the alternative swing style of Bryson DeChambeau. Most normal humans just can’t or have the time to master the traditional lower hand multi plane traditional system. Many older golfers are better off sacrificing some distance for more accuracy to better enjoy and compete.

[@davidquinn7144]

Wow really that easy .

[@ayotollaofrockandrolla7219]

I’ve been doing that since 1983. Comes natural for me and feels no different

[@pmcg9690]

At the moment your follow through is going shallow around your body when it should be on the exact same plane as the takeaway shown..... imagine a circle ring along your backswing, your follow through should be going up at the same angle, hopefully by doing that will cure any slices you might incur.

[@Juanmapiedras]

I don't see any rotation during backswing :(

[@testingthetips]

How does the left shoulder arrive under the chin without rotation?

[@Juanmapiedras]

I mean during practice, don’t take it personal :) Good advice in the end

[@arisandrews5672]

There was no difference ,the club went inside and came over it the ball started left. That change is not going to happen on one swing. Golfers have scar tissue and it needs to be ingrained I believe in miracles in everything except golf.

[@brianpearl7504]

First 3 minutes, why would a guy be left hand dominant that plays as a righty? I know they are out there but c'mon

[@creamabdul-jabbar6722]

Always hated a teaching of being dominate in one side or other. Lead hand lead leg, or the "throw" with the trail hand. Good players are usually 90 percent equally dominant. Also like legs saying get to the lead side work through lead side. That's powerless. Yes your body naturally will move towards the target but you can see the best ball strikers are balanced. Especially watch them hit a short iron you don't see their feet leaving the ground until after contact. This rotation myth and this throwing myth is just that. I started playing the best golf learning this myself. Of course foot pressure changes as your body moves around but you're not supposed to purposely try for that. This is a great explanation of the hands though. As I started to feel like I had to turn the trail hand down in the take away. It's just a feel though because my left hand was so dominant I had to feel the trail hand to equal these out. But if you get an instructor that ever tells lift foot or use one side of the body more than the other run because you're going to get worse. But great explanation guys

[@KevinBarclay-uw2ky]

@barclay56 andy this tip you had is Very good. I've been to my local driving range today. to try it myself i was shocked it works. thanks alot. 👍👍

[@rowdyroddy519]

"Whenever the shaft is level to the ground, it should be parallel to the target line." This means.... on the takeaway... at the top ( if you get to level/parallel at the top.)... the downswing... release.... and follow through. This is called ** 5 TIMES PARALLEL ** This will get your swing on plane with a zero'd path. With a good grip, and proper alignment, it will create a zero'd path and zero'd clubface, and produce a straight ballflight .... and is required if you want to hit the ball straight at your target consistently. This is my "#1 Rule" with my students, after they learn the standard proper grip , stance, posture, and alignment. First, you have to learn the proper manipulation of the tool. Then you learn how to make the body move efficiently and consistently, to manipulate the tool properly.

[@thomasg321]

Good luck changing your swing at your age - after swinging your way for decades. It won't be easy.
