How To Hit Draws, Fades, and Shape Your Shots on Command

[@TheGolfSensei]

Watch More Lessons with Patrick and Ed: This Move Ruins High Handicap Golfer Swings - kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5vLpIl7nZisf9k

[@CHUDWICK111]

By far the clearest instruction on how to hit these shots i've ever seen.

[@fredmcmichael5727]

You are the most user-friendly instructor I have watched. Your no frills approach is very refreshing

[@coburn_karma]

What Kind of Sorcery Is This?............ It's mind blowing to see it happen before my eyes. The Sensei shows Patrick how to hit a draw and it draws, how to hit a fade and it fades, a hook and it hooks, slice and it slices. This is so simple to remember. The flashlight aid is crucial for muscle memory.

[@u2btrod]

The most informative golf page I know of. Great work!

[@TAYLORFAN50]

Yeah, right. 🙄

[@tomscott9588]

Love how you teach. Thank you both.

[@warrenpolidori5541]

Liked the flashlight visual to the target line. Easy to understand and doesn't fill your head with a bunch of thoughts. KISS

[@rickroy4556]

Hi Ed, I had that thumb surgery in January, so I'm still not allowed to hit shots yet. But this is a fabulous primer on how to hit fades and draws. Like Patrick, I was always a fader. So I'm really anxious to try this all out when I return to playing. Really appreciate you taking to time to so meticulously detail how to accomplish the desired shot. All the best

[@golfnut7369]

Good stuff, I especially liked the comment about fluffy lies are easier to draw/hook and tight lies are easier to slice/fade,

[@markcollins2578]

A credit to you both the instruction is clear and is easy to understand the torchlight segment particularly

[@brimill8257]

Great job guys, I never really understood this till now! I will be watching this video a few more times to get the hang of all the different shots! If you could show a camera shot of the feet position would be a big help in putting it all together!! Thanks!

[@gregcarnall9097]

What a great lesson, ive always swung the club along my feet line when trying to draw and fade, but that looks like the wrong thing to do, i just need to swing along the target line and it's all to do with the follow through. Love the simplicity of your instruction and clarity.

[@VictorSaltmeris]

Totally amazing … I always thought it was about rolling the hands or changing the grip and there was never any consistency. Instead it’s about the finish/follow through… can’t wait to practice this the next time I’m out. Many thanks for this tip/ video.. From sunny Isle of Wight UK 👍

[@Omnis2]

Keep 'em coming, guys. Great job as always!

[@44262]

You guys are the best - thank you, you've taken my game to another level!

[@ericgutie3260]

Awesome Gentlemen : once again I appreciate your no nonsense approach to golf . Simple explanation but keen advice - love it . Thinking on visiting you all for in person training . Would love it if you could talk about hitting into wind to neutralize shots as eluded to; golf club grip ( hogan grip etc ) - thank you Ed , you are a wonderful golf instructor. Greetings from Southern California

[@bmoon11]

So do you not swing along your path that is set to your feet ? Also do you go more into that release where the flashlight is pointing in front of that front alignment stick ? I’m struggling getting into that position.

[@stewmanchew6383]

You are a great teacher please keep making videos as good as you are you should have 150k following. Thank you for all your teachings !!

[@TheGolfSensei]

Glad you’re enjoying the videos! We will keep making them :)

[@orkayen]

Thanks for sharing. The light stick shows the stick is moving along the target line. However, with the club in hand we move the club around 45 /60 degrees inside of the target line and hinge the wrist. Which is correct?

[@jimrothery1289]

Thank you. Simple to follow. We'll done.

[@jackbowman4788]

Just found Coach Ed and Patrick and you guys are making some great videos !!

[@TheGolfSensei]

Thanks! Any topics you’d like to see us cover?

[@johnkelly2382]

A great lesson.

[@survivinwithrahlowb8622]

Hopefully you see this Sir, I am struggling with a slice/fade, my club path has been very outside in, in a search to correct my club path I found you Sir and your flashlight training aid. I hope using it and this lesson I can correct my club path and rid myself of the dreaded slice. I put together my “light trainer” per your instructions. I’m 69 yrs old, pretty good shape, I will shoot 90 one day and 100 the next, the slice with D and longer clubs and being too steep with mid to short irons is my issue. I believe and HOPE the “light trainer” is the solution! Thanks in advance

[@TheGolfSensei]

Be sure to try this drill too! It should help a lot with your path kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqTUmouOl8qJiJo

[@survivinwithrahlowb8622]

@@TheGolfSensei thank you, I watched this video before I found the flashlight video and have been using the “right arm swings and the right under left swing” people at work think I’m crazy standing around doing this lol,,, and plan to use the towels next range session. I am using the flashlight now at home, several times throughput the evening.

[@billybolton8464]

Thanks for content assume same principles for the short game for chipping etc.

[@GregCrocker-z1f]

Thanks for the great tips. Looking forward to practicing these this week. In my s60s now and hurt a bit after play in lower back like many folks. Have been wondering if fades or draws are easier on the body? Probably not but us golfers will try anything. Thanks

[@StillRunnin]

Awesome tips for drawing the ball...

[@stephenmccarthy8783]

Great lesson. Really informative. Thanks.

[@bruceshearer8711]

Great info. Looking forward to practicing this.

[@topgunbass]

Great tips here. Will give it a try. Any tips on hitting low out from under trees?

[@brandong6766]

I'm 38yo. I been at the driving range everyday for the last month. I play my first 9 holes in about 6 hours.. watched 3 of your videos and now I only wish I watched them 3 weeks ago 😂 to stop slicing learn how to hook it... thats excellent advice lol

[@TheGolfSensei]

Glad you’re enjoying the videos!

[@Turbonicplague]

Your lesson are great!! Easy to follow along with.

[@TheGolfSensei]

Glad you enjoy them!

[@randylasky261]

Ed can you further explain the setup. For a draw, are my feet slightly closed and my knees, hips and shoulders slightly closed as well or am I setup with my feet slightly closed and my hips and shoulders square to the target line? I understand I will not be changing my grip and my back swing will go back following the target line and the down swing will be a normal transition with the follow thru along the target line and club swinging across my chest with the butt end of the club pointing outside of the original target line. So setup is where I need more clarity. Watched your video multiple times and wasn’t able to see how the knees, hips and shoulders align. Understand the feet are slightly closed. Help…Thanks!

[@LeeMan-q4b]

Bueno Bueon Men! Spot on, love the "KISS" methodology!

[@dennisobrycki4029]

Awesome work Patrick! You too Ed! 😂😂

[@TheGolfSensei]

Haha thank you!

[@BobKaplan-j6t]

Does the draw method also work with a driver?

[@AlanStrong-t4z]

Enjoyed the information

[@codybryant8458]

Ed, I have heard and seen many differing opinions on grip pressure…. I have toyed with firm and light pressure and gave found that the light pressure help me not cast as bad, with better follow through than firmer pressure. However, firm pressure just feels more comfortable and in control! Is there some instructions you can share as to the pros vs cons of each and what is the preferred pressure for consistency, direction, distance, etc… Thanks!!

[@TheGolfSensei]

Hi Cody, we talk about grip pressure a bit in this video at 11:30: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIG9gH2kj8uapNUsi=rQblDFyEMLsld_M_

[@dannyleblanc4980]

Does this include the Driver as well, thanks for the great video.

[@notanothername103]

the hook with a Driver will tend to be unreliable because of delofting on an already pretty delofted club. The tee might help you but as a general rule, I would not try to really hook or slice it on purpose with a driver. chances that you end up with a lost ball is higher than to play it smart, with a draw and to negotiate the distance to set up for a good second shot.

[@whitneymacdonald4396]

I'm glad Ed found golf because I don't think he would have done too well as a "hooker." Great stuff. I can't wait to get out on the range and play with this. PS- I really appreciate having an average golfer demonstrate these things. For me, it makes it easier to see and imagine. Thanks for being willing Patrick.

[@u2btrod]

I'm trying to get this straight in my head... How would you set up if you had to severly fade/slice a ball to a green but the only opeing was about 35 degrees to the line to the pin? I don't believe that you could wing along the line to the pin as you have mentioned here. I would assume that it would be the exact opposite for a draw/hook. I may have figured it out, but I'd still be interested to see what you have to say to make sure I'm correct. Thanks.

[@vicpnut1]

Cant wait to hit the range and try this technique …thanks

[@vicpnut1]

Off subject question…. Since following this channel im seeing some progress already (havent had the weather to play much yet here in the north east) not all faults beat yet but can see it possibly happening this year …if it does , i may want to upgrade my 20 year old taylormade RAC OS irons. I love em but assume the technology has left them in the dust by now…my question is , since i dont play enough to spend $1000on new taylormade Qi irons(though it’s tempting) …so if you even have an opinion ,which model would be a good choice in used taylormade game improvement irons to consider? Stealth seems the obvious choice but are previous models close to them like sim2’s or M4’s?

[@stevenroberts9380]

Good stuff 👍

[@hamrnguns]

You are the most amazing instructor! I live in Missouri and wished I could go to a clinic or something. I do have a question that doesn’t have anything to do with this video. Why is it that I can make fabulous contact with a driver on my home sim or the driving range but as soon as I tee it up on the course everything goes to hell in a hand basket?!!!! Nothing feels good!

[@TheGolfSensei]

We’re considering putting on some in-person clinics this year for people who watch our channel! Check out our recent video on alignment and parallax error, it can make a big difference on the course!

[@hamrnguns]

Thanks so much. I’d like to know more about the clinic.

[@MichaelKnight-j6p]

Thanks. Great info

[@dannyleblanc4980]

Does this include the driver? Thanks

[@TheGolfSensei]

Sure!

[@BobbyFletcher-f3e]

So the face still stays square to the target line .. but the club path will change to the right of the path

[@yannrobert8546]

Awesome thks

[@Spoofkingelite]

Amazing

[@robinhopkins2462]

gold

[@lil-g4879]

Before I stopped playing and became absolutely useless at golf, I used to draw and fade using my feet rather than worrying about much else.

[@Isayitwithmychest]

Your video and advice working is crazy sir 😁😁😁💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🥴🥴🥴😤😤😤😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨💯💯💯🅿️🅿️🅿️

[@joelm9080]

Great video but listen at x1.25 speed and its perfect. Your welcome 😅

[@jabman549]

Watching these videos I realize how bad I actually am at golf. I can hit straight with decent length and am pretty good with irons and wedges, basically I’m just a caveman right now.

[@Isayitwithmychest]

It means just practice 😤😤😤😤😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😕😕😕🫡🫡🫡🫡
