Golf Lesson: How To Stop Scooping The Golf Ball In 15 Minutes! (LIVE)

In this golf lesson with Maverik, Henry and I teamed up to show him how to stop scooping the golf ball and achieve a lower launch angle.
⛽️🔥 Milo’s Favorite Drill to COMPRESS the Golf Ball: milolinesgolf.com/compress
For those that tend to flip and scoop at impact, in this video lesson we uncover a few ways to go about creating shaft lean at impact and thus lowering the dynamic loft. With Maverik being a former baseball player, we also encouraged him to strike the ball and move much like he did during his hitting days, albeit limited as a pitcher. We also tended to his golf grip and talked about the differences we see from the baseball grip. We hope you enjoy this golf lesson, and many thanks to Dobson Ranch Golf Course in Mesa, Arizona for hosting us once again! www.dobsonranchgolfclub.com ‪@smashersongolf‬

Milo is the first golf instructor ever who makes me feel able to reach a higher level within a couples of minutes in a single footage.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Thanks so much for following along!

[@randyminielly2671]

Was going to say the same thing .. having reference to feels from other sports is huge

[@johntrung]

hi Milo. This is John from Vietnam. I watched this video around 11pm before a game at 6am the next morning. I made 5 birdies and played the best game ever. Thanks a lot!

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Great to hear John, thanks for following along!

[@edogaktop]

Can't wait to see the full swing transformation of Maverik! This guy is going to hit really long with that speed and the correct technique.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

We have heard that he is playing and striking it better!

[@barryhill6482]

Best yet! Great lesson!

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tommcmanus7469]

This is brilliant instruction Milo. I've been working through your drills to build a more rotational swing, making progress but still a bit handsy through the impact zone. The alignment stick / strong grip / hands forward drill makes absolute sense so will take it to the range tomorrow. Hopefully it gets me over the edge 👍

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Here to help Tom 👍

[@clstrat837]

This video gave me some great ideas on the range today. Took about 30 balls or so but I caught a feeling and I striped the rest. Thanks Milo

[@christianmani1730]

Great content. It’s very much like what Mike Bender teaches too.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Some similarities, but I find we differ quite a bit

[@georgemohr]

I like the idea of not letting the extension stick come in contact with the bodies leading side. Does this hold true for all irons and woods during full power swings as well? Great lesson, thanks.

[@golfbike]

That stick drill. I need to live there too

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Can be a good one for many!

[@raraga1959]

This guy talking about his shot going from a slice to a hook is exactly what's happened with me since I began playing 3 years ago. I also pitched for 15 yrs (stopped after college though) and can generate plenty of speed and distance, just need more consistency.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

[@markberg8271]

Milo -- great video. Thanks for positing. Question: do you agree that grip was an issue but also his shift/body movement to the downswing. That, his handle wasn't forward partly due to his lack of shift and turn with the body. Midway in the clip you urge him (a few times) to turn and move club with the body: which I think is evidence of his shift and body movement being an issue leading to the flip. Plus his backswing was probably too long (as you said), and he bordered on a reverse pivot. Do you agree? Just thinking about more than grip here.

[@buddylopez5391]

The issue with baseball players making a transition to golf is very difficult, me included we are taught to store so much energy in the right side then weight transfer stop locate the pitch and explode into the baseball then follow thru golf is a move forward kinda way which is a no no in baseball how many times at a baseball game do you hear a coach say stay back, it's what we call lunging, in golf you store energy in the back swing then move your weight to the front side and continue the movement forward at no point is there a pause at impact so bringing the baseball swing to the golf coarse doesn't work for some of us because we explode of the right leg with no forward movement staying back in the swing coming over the top and hitting the ground extremely hard and in my case causing hip,shoulder,back pain.This video is perfect for us baseball player it simplifies the golf swing once I worked on this and learned, I enjoy playing the game I rarely hit the ground thanks Milo

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Thanks for the watch Buddy!

[@TheBirdieparbirdie]

What a luxury speed is! Imagine knowing that if you can ingrain the move (which is one hell of a chore, even for an elite athlete) you'll hit it as far as tour pro.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

He was already hitting it fairly far, but his dynamic loft was holding him back from controlling the ball and getting maximum carry.

[@richg7264]

U have lots of patience sir!

[@MiloLinesGolf]

And so do my students! Change is not easy.

[@raymondmedemblik9374]

When I don’t use my hands and keep my right hand in extension with side bend and elbow in on the downswing how do I stop my club face from opening

[@bloatedsodium7301]

Milo, this is what I don’t understand about shaft lean. Are you moving the shaft forward to deloft the clubface, or moving the shaft forward which opens the clubface and then squaring up the clubface?

[@teddywilliams2512]

me and this guy have extremely similar swings. Making impact on the trail thigh. Stupid problem can't wait to get rid of it forever.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Let's get after it Teddy!

[@jnfyeah]

Hi Milo, after trying this out I had a lot of shanks. Without seeing my swing, is the most likely reason a early casting motion of the hands/club?

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Could be, yes. Something is causing your club to move outside the ball line. Would need to see.

[@alanmcmaster1423]

So I should be able to get instant feedback by looking at the flight path , the lower the shot the more the shaft lean? (assuming you hit the club face sweet spot)

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Generally yes

[@edmforever5664]

Hello milo when i start downswing i should drop arm or pivot hip

[@MiloLinesGolf]

I prefer to see a landing phase to create a further stretch than an unwind to lower the arms dynamically. Maybe this video could help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYCsiY2lp9KHa7s

@@MiloLinesGolf ¨Thank you for bringing those great teachings Bro. !

[@bradd9138]

Milo, some teachers say scooping is caused by the pelvis rotating faster than the arms, so you need to speed the arms up to sync them up with the hips. Do you agree?

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Pelvis extending and sliding ahead of the arms could be a cause but I generally find it to be an effect. Scooping often happens because the face is out of position and the player throws the head past the hands in an effort to square the face which causes the pelvis to extend and slide.

[@henniebogan1966]

This isn't a small change. It's almost like relearning how to deliver the clubhead correctly to the impact position.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Will take some time for sure, but it aligns with how to strike an object and hit a baseball for that matter.

[@greatwhite3676]

I am astonished a guy that is this good of an athlete cant just take a small swing. I mean dude just chip the thing. I am 4 handicap and i still get the most results from L to L drills. Waist high to waist high making crispy contact.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

They sure do help, plus slowing down of course.

[@grandpagolf]

@@MiloLinesGolf thank you!!!!!!

[@chestermicek]

Milo, you are the instructor, but I'd have this stud aim at the front of the ball instead of the rear. I think my swings is not as solid as it should be, meaning I sway my torso a bit, but I get a .38 cal. gunshot noise with my King Cobra irons when I aim at the front of the ball a little to the right of center. With my woods, I set up so that I can see the rear 2/3 of the ball & swing at that. Comment, please.

[@geoffhunt7965]

Love the lesson but hate that range layout.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

What's wrong with the range Geoff?

[@geoffhunt7965]

It looked like the hitting area to the left was forward of the one in the lesson.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

It is, yes, but you are more or less aiming back towards the range. Only a real issue if a lefty were in our spot and shanked one real bad 😂

[@Jmhockey1920]

Jesus…the dude does not listen. The patience my friend you have.

[@TickleNation]

Not true whatsoever. What he is trying to get him to do is very counterintuitive to what his body is already programmed to do from pitching. I’d love to see you stand there and get a lesson on camera from Milo.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

I have to side with Neal here. Many who watch my live lessons have the perception that the students aren't listening when in reality they are grasping new feels and processing the information. It's a learning process.

[@SUPaddict]

Shoots 80-85 & hits a 7 iron 165 and Milo says “it’s not good”. I quit - the clubs are on Offer Up.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

For his speed and potential, he was missing out on a lot of distance and control. I'm just trying to help my students get better.

[@dancollins5478]

80-85 is not good? You lost me on that one.

[@redhed9776]

"i play good for 13-14 holes, then lose a shot"... that is NOT inconsistency. Someone get a Funk and Wagnall

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Playing good and shoot mid 80’s doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement. He wasn’t nearly hitting his ceiling.

[@toma9976]

Milo it would be helpful if you didn’t use the slang, such as ‘ well dial it down’.

[@MiloLinesGolf]

Help me understand why do you not understand dial it down?
