Hit A PERFECT DRAW EVERYTIME With This 1 SIMPLE Tweak! (Golf Driver Swing Tip)

[@TheWhistleComedyGaming]

Finally a video that doesn’t just say “fix face and grip”. There are so many other things that can cause slice issues and this is the first video I’ve seen that addresses them

[@Shaboiiii]

Been a slicer for damn near 20 years, watched this video twice and went to the range, started to actually click and understand the club turning over, watching the ball fly straight and long is the best feeling in the world

[@kyleguiao4508]

This is a great video, Matt! Thank you! I was getting so frustrated the other day at the range because of all the slices. This is so timely!

[@harveyhelka9186]

matt you have to be one of the best golf instructers ever. your explanations are easy to understand and your direction is on point. you and andy carter are gifted teachers of golf. Hopefully we can see a reunion with you and boys battling it out for 18. always entertainment. love the lesson on this video

[@kukolino]

Best video on YT to explain the driver hit

[@jonduncan1092]

great video on fixing driver swing path issues,,, but most of all i appreciate the excellent audio on such a windy day. nice job.

[@montegustafson5142]

This video reminds me of a quote from a book by Sam Snead that I still remember that went something like this: "(learn to) Hit the ball straight, with no tricks, until you are the master of the shot. THEN begin to learn to hit a draw, a fade, and other shots". Well, I am 78 and still working on hitting the ball straight...........

[@carlbaumeister3439]

I started playing golf around age 12, and I got pretty good at hitting draws and fades when needed. Hitting the ball straight? Forget about it. Johnny Miller says anybody trying to hit the ball straight is crazy.

[@montegustafson5142]

@@carlbaumeister3439 I'll take Sneads's advice over Johnny Miller's anyday.

[@silvermediastudio]

The theory/process at 5:30 is spot on. Learning to make the ball go the other way, more than you'd want, is the key to learning how to make the ball go less in the way it is, which you also don't want. Overcorrect, learn how it feels and what is actually causing the result. Then learn to control it. When I only have a couple minutes to warm up, one of my favorite quick drills is hit draw, fade, center, fade, center, draw. It refreshes my mind and my body with how it feels to hit each shot, with intention. It is important also to very strongly visualize the shot before you swing. Having a clear mental picture that you are committed to helps your brain execute that exact thing, just like in putting or throwing a ball to your mate.

Yeah i agree….a decade ,or more ,ago i found an old timer pros lessons online.he was the first to come up when i googled about slicing etc in multiple searches ….I don’t know if its good etiquette to name him here..? Actually pretty sure his site is no longer ,so. Darrel Klassen was his name 🤷🏼‍♂️he was a very verbose teacher to say the least . But much of what he was saying made sense ,especially for older golfers but in general too. But he would occasionally bring up you have to learn to hook it and slice it on purpose before you can find your personal swing. I learned how to but had no success taming it all from there …meaning i could hook , snap hook really and slice(boomerang like)on demand but the middle still eluded me … it boils down to (imo) whats said in this video , getting certain fundamentals correct …which sadly i can get , but never seems to make permanent lol…i dont play enough to overwrite my bad tendencies so the slice always comes back 🤦🏼‍♂️😜😬..im not finished with this video just yet (2 tips down) and I don’t know what the final tip will be ….but ill say whatever it is ,yoU need a LOT of time practicing these to make them permanent …if my up and down score card is proof of anything aside from my poor practice its that the more you swing your bad swing the harder it is to overcome …for me anyways

[@silvermediastudio]

@@vicpnut1 You may also want to evaluate your course management. Here's my advice: strip your bag down to 5w or 7w, 7i, PW, SW, P. Just five clubs. Identify your favorite approach shot, let us say an 80 yard PW. Before you tee off, plan each hole (par 4s and 5s) backwards from this approach shot. Break it up with your wood (maybe a 200-225yd club?) and your 7i (140-150yd?). The goal is to tee off and put the ball in play, in the safest part of the fairway possible. Then hit safe & comfortable 7i and PW, moving the ball towards the green and away from hazards with every shot, until you get to your perfect approach shot. Hit to the biggest, fattest, most comfortable part of the green where even if you miss, it isn't in trouble. Then you two putt. With this method, you 1) won't lose balls or waste time & energy looking for balls, 2) you'll be practicing with those 3-4 clubs until you feel 100% confident in them, 3) you'll be hitting from the fairway lies, not rough and bunkers. With this method, you will find yourself shooting bogey golf (+18 or better) in under 10 rounds. What you must avoid is over-swinging, smashing the ball. You must avoid "hero" shots which get you in trouble. You must avoid trying to play a shot you aren't comfortable with. Behind a tree? Just punch it out 45-degrees back to the fairway. 140yd from water? Don't try to carry with the 7, just lay up with the PW and play it safe. Every shot must be safe safe safe. When you're practicing, put 50% of your time into chipping and putting until you can get up & down around the green, and make 99% of putts inside four feet. Put 25% of your time into your PW and SW, shots inside 110yd or so. Develop that go-to approach. And put 25% into the 7i and 5w, so you have confidence in their distance and dispersion, especially the 7i. Good luck!

Great video Matt - all makes sense and can't wait to try this evening at the driving range

[@windmillcancersurvivor2568]

With my season starting next Wednesday your solid instruction especially the set up saved me finding my game on the course.

[@randomgamer-st1ie]

Simply put, initiate your downswing with your hips. That pulls your hands down to the inside of the swing plane. If the first move you make from the top is your shoulders, you're outside.

[@faridhanif6319]

Saw the video n highly impressed by the way of teaching . Keep it up bro

[@ETBob51]

Great video, Matt. I can't wait for the snow to melt so I can get out to the course to try these tips.

[@ricklindgren3510]

10 balls on the range and all is good again! Thank you for your help and making it so easy!

[@whiskers762]

These are the tips I needed the big stick is my most struggle club thanks Matt I'm gonna have to watch this again on the range to implement these

[@peterstepaside]

Hi Matt. Great video. I just had a lesson on Friday and was told I need to have an in to out swing path with all clubs. Your tip with the driver was what my teacher told me which is so helpful. What would you suggest with the irons? Similar to have the right hand come through? (obviously without shoulder tilt). It’s just to get a mental image of where the club path should be. We used a water bottle just outside the ball (to the top) and tried to hit the ball without hitting the bottle, which works. But it’s not practical while playing. Any tip would be appreciated. Peter

[@bradders5974]

really liked this video and the 3 item checklist .., short and clear and to the point,- thanks Matt.

[@garybetteley9214]

Could have done with watching this this morning, Slicing the ball everywhere, but will watch again hopefully it will work for me , Thanks.

[@davidplumb250]

thank you, I've recently started slicing my driver and I will try these.

[@rafabonati7757]

Matt, your instruction videos are always so good.

[@jonnid67]

Great advice Matt, especially for golfers like me who have a tendency to slice the ball

[@robertsimmonds67]

Just watched the video. I can't wait to try the tips out on the range.

[@evacox-fm7ze]

Thanks Matt - how do you feel about addressing the ball a few inches behind the ball?

[@keestel6975]

If you are aware of these 3 steps you have no excuse left to slice a drive! Love these "simple" tips! 💚

[@fretless05]

Great ideas to work on. Question: is it possible to keep the lead arm straight in the follow through without releasing the face? I'm trying to find a feel that's easy to focus on.

[@antonykennedy8709]

Are your feet and shoulders aligned with the cub path or with a parallel line through the tee?

[@viokrish1]

Hi matt great lesson and thanks. I being a very good cricket player, we tend to have this chicken arms and go with the ball. Is there any tip to change it as its too much in muscle memory. Once again my balls go pretty much straight if at all slight fade. Distance wise around 240mts carry.

[@johnnyb1843]

My professional actually teaches a cricket like strike…. Figure that one out!!🙄

[@ianpulham3624]

I went away from a pronation release some years ago. I think it's good for very talented sportsmen with excellent timing. For mere mortals however it leads to spraying drives OB left and right, with some great drives inbetween.

[@landolockss]

I went out and tried the last drill and it really clicked with me. I played today and hit 80% fairway rate with driver and 100% of them were playable. Maybe it’s just me but that last drill really clicked with me, could be because I played baseball

[@johnmadden5536]

Hello I play golf in the special Olympics in gainesville fl and when I driving on the golf course my golf ball all ways Fade to the right how can I stop the fade

[@Zuma91]

The only video we slicers needed 😭👍

[@burnseythebrokerUK]

Simple, but important - thanks Matt!

[@stevenwhiting8941]

Great video, but I thought this is considered "flicking or flipping the?" Which I have been told & taught not to do. I am confused, based on your teaching via this video it is okay. Please confirm, TY

[@landolockss]

Holy shit…. That last tip completely changed my game. I’ve always been a long driver but could only keep them in the fairway 50% of the time. I did that drill and it instantly clicked in my mind. I now find the fairway 80% of the time with driver and still have the long distance Thank you for making this video!! 🙏

[@vicpnut1]

Man all this makes sense and i believe it to be correct ..then i get to the range and ill duck hook ,totally miss hit , or some other massive flub.. then I start adding in the “old school” fixes and it all just goes from bad to worse..

[@detmostwant]

I've struggled with a slice my whole life but only with my driver. Literally everything else has a baby draw but I can't seem to fix the driver. It's gotten to a point where my driver swing feels really uncomfortable. I'm definitely going to be filming myself on the range soon to see if I can apply any of these tips

[@jasonchuter8748]

Great explanation Mr Fryer 👍😊

[@dougbouey9334]

This just makes so much sense

[@neoyasechaba221]

I'm back here because after watching this last time, and even though I wasn't sure I understood everything, while trying it out I played my lowest round in a long time. I was probably in or near the fairway ~80% of the time. Then I forgot the lesson 🙈

[@Popspicker]

Brilliant mate..Thanks Matt

[@colonelangus9865]

[@Discoveryman11]

[@vincentkingsdale8334]

50% of the time it duck hooks.....does that count as a power draw??

[@gns4838]

I don’t think anyone gets your comment sir but it smells like pure gasoline!!

[@daleoderkirk8174]

Would be great if you show me in slo mo the release point

[@Washy01]

All points are necessary for a draw. However, all of this is nil if you can't consistently find the center or toward the toe side if the face. You hit the heel, that ball is starting right and going further right.

[@johnnyb1843]

Sense at last!

[@MrWubzHD2]

Hm my coach always had me try doing less variables. So instead of a flippy release he had me basically try using only a stronger grip to fix my slice. Even with a I-to-O swing path my ball still always went right. This is probably why. Also I always thought I was toe biased with my hits. Come to find out recently that I am actually very heel biased on my misses. Think I need to find a new coach now 😂

[@tedburke8187]

This is correct

[@matthewlaw8268]

i think its the release part i struggle with as it feels too 'flippy' to me

[@MrGHenchel]

"1 simple tweak"....proceeds to tell us 3 simple tweaks. LOL

[@gillyforest1]

Why use a black tee peg ? Couldn’t see it ! But otherwise a good video .

[@xraftermanx]

The feeling is loose wrists and firm grip. It's the most difficult part to master Most people who try to grip firm will tighten their wrists at the same time.

[@whiskers762]

I think one of my big problems is I'm too open in my set up

[@Jean-MarcRigody-yl4ft]

Easy te tell but rotation of the hands is more difficult to do. My balls are flying to the left. I don’t rotate any more, my balls are going not so far but right.

[@swans1414]

Playing in wind like that would be a night mare for me.

[@jf_knows_nothing]

My slice works every time. Until I play the slice. Then it goes dead straight.

[@Eqnotalent]

Tip #3 is why 90% of golfers slice…first 2 tip are easy fix, 3rd is hard for amateurs to aim that far right off target. They end up flipping or early extension to fix it right before impact

It really does though, the last drill at least. I really recommend you try it

[@donaldelder1368]

Could you comment on your tee height? It looks like bottom of ball is even with crown. A PXG fitter was fairly insistent on having the equator of ball below the driver crown but finally compromised on equator just above the crown.

[@jameshoward9275]

you took four minutes to say lean to the right

[@peterschmidt1936]

How about 3 simple tweaks….

[@thetruth156real3]

Can’t be that simple the vids, 12 minutes long.

[@SunsTo7]

Not to be critical but you pros all do the same thing ,that is you always persist in teaching the wrong way first then you go to the correct.This goes against every thing we are taught in school,college etc.. Math or english teaching never teach the wrong answers first then the correct why do you do this today?

[@saltyolive_]

is there a problem?

[@SunsTo7]

Yes the issue is that you teach the wrong way to do the technique first and this gets ingrained in the students mind now they have a problem with the swing to overcome,very negative approach.@@saltyolive_
