How To Hit Fairway Woods Consistently

[@paulwilsongolf]

Now I can work with you live with my new app called CoachLink. If I can see you, I can help you no matter where you are in the world. I can assess your swing, check your grip or swing positions, watch you at the range or even when you play. Find out more here: bodyswing.com/coachlink Thank you for your support!

[@GFDthatsMe]

I think the woods you are referring to are actually the top flite intimidator titanium 400 that are based on the Lee Trevino prototype Bondo Bounce. Pretty cool none the less

[@GFDthatsMe]

If your sure they are Spalding, they may be the Spalding canon

[@garytrebels7679]

Or the Taylor Made SIM?

[@MarkG_603]

So flippin' true. One more piece to your puzzle Paul is that taking the thought of LESS distance with a fairway wood will almost always result in hitting the ball in the sweet spot, so the distance will actually occur. Keep preaching, some of us are receiving your message! 😉

[@paulwilsongolf]

Exactly. I prove this all the time. Literally with about 4 balls they are hitting it amazingly well. Previous to that they couldn't get it airborne.

[@badarmunir6963]

Very good. Just see it and start thinking differently. Simple is the key word.

[@joelpolanco731]

Agreed.

[@ChampagneWithComics]

Best golf teacher by far. I’m a beginner so watched many videos and read some amazing books.. but Paul is def the 🐐

[@moeday99]

Thanks, Paul. Ironically, I started doing this on my own with my 3 and 4 hybrid during the last round I played. I can’t tell you how unbelievably well this worked out for me. Now that you’ve said it, it’ll be stuck in my game forever. An 80% swing with clean club face contact is way better than a topped 1000% effort swing.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. These clubs are so easy to hit but you need to not hit. The total opposite of what everyone wants to do. Stick with it and this will dramatically change your game. Good job.

[@ronaldjohnson380]

I actually executed this loose swing thought yesterday at the range employing a smooth easy swing with my fairway wood and I was hitting phenomenal shots. Audience it really works! Thanks again Paul.

[@paulwilsongolf]

It sure does. Just got to try it.

[@davidquiroz8177]

I’ve seen so many tips from different Pro’s. You’re the only one I have subscribed to. You make it simple for us noobs to understand. Others show but you show and also explain. Thank you

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks for the sub! Simple is the key for sure. You actually need to understand it and try it. Too complicated and you probably won't remember it and not do it right. So you don't get the results. When I was learning I made it complicated too. This got me nowhere and I was practicing daily for years. So if I didn't get it the average person will never get it.

[@todd9088]

I saw this one a couple of years ago , I had been topping my fairway woods, so I followed Paul's advice, and it worked great. .......But, started topping them again this season, so I came back for a refresher course......Paul is great, love his videos, he has shaved quite a few strokes off my game.........Plus, he makes me chuckle, he knows how we amateurs think....."Did I pull off this amazing shot?.........NO, cause you topped it along the ground"..

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you remembered to watch it again. Everyone wants more and more so they hit harder. Get it then be content. In other words ... repeat.

[@cjvr1953]

I watch one coach only. You! So many watch a myriad of videos rather than just one teacher! I’ve topped many. Thank You

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks for the support. I appreciate it. One teacher is the way to go. It's easy to get confused. If what I am teaching resonates with you and is making you better then that's all you need. Keep at it.

[@jorbjorb1]

These are the best golf videos on KZbin. Good job.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Wow, thanks!

[@russellnichols1735]

I top a lot of woods and this explanation is exactly what I think…thinking I’ve got to hit it a long way. Thank you for the video! It also applies off the tee!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you found me. Follow the tip and you will hitting it great. I usually say within 6 balls you will be hitting perfect fairway woods. Yes you could also follow this for driver. Sounds like you've been trying to hitbit way too hard. The looser your the more you will use your body to power the swing. That's how kids do it.

[@russellnichols1735]

Just a follow up to say I had success yesterday playing with thinking differently over a ball with a three wood or 5 wood. I hit some great shots only topped one but it was still fine and shot a 78 which wouldn’t have happened without a good woods play. To some perspective on this it was so bad I was considering not even using my woods! Thanks Paul 😊

[@paulwilsongolf]

So glad you worked on it. This is so easy to fix. People who haven't been able to hit them for years are in awe after just a few shots. I would do a few easy swings allowing the arms to stretch out before each shot to remind you. Great job!

[@marylodato2389]

Great video. Wish I where a few years younger. ( many years younger) Will keep trying. Thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thnaks so much. I have heard that one many times over the years. The effortless swing I teach is for life so you have plenty of time.

[@mdkhatsun]

This whole loose arms chat relating to where the swing is at is widest is so spot on! I rocked up for golf yesterday, Range is shut so cant hit any looseners stand on the tee and bang nail one as far off the toe as you can go without missing the face. Totally felt tight at impact. Reloaded felt the arms stretch out and pow! Ripped one so pure I didn’t feel it at impact. My driver is going straighter than ever!! Big thanks to your dedication to this channel it’s been a big help over the years

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Great feeling when you know you are going to hit it pure. Keep up the good work.

[@yeetskeet7234]

I never looked up and saw a nice shot💯💯

[@paulwilsongolf]

Exactly. I say this to people all of the time. Got to delay your reaction.

[@OnkelDude]

This was more of a mental lesson than swing mechanics. "The longest distance in golf is the six inches between your ears." I went through several brands of 3-woods before settling on a Callaway Razr Hawk. Less is more. It has saved my clunker drive many a time and I swing it easy, no easier. My partner will grab it and tap on the face to see what its made of. Thanks Paul!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Exactly. A mental lesson that no one has even mentioned. I've always ask myself "why." There has to be a reason for swing flaws and bad shots. Once you know that you can fix it.

[@ChampagneWithComics]

After watching so many videos on the “perfect” golf swing focusing on the everything physical while your videos have helped me so much more by showing the importance of the mental game of golf. Went to the range today and let my mind do the work. using my arms as hinges, loosening the body, keeping my head down.. don’t think of distance.. sure enough I was hitting bombs dead straight.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Hitting is the problem. Stay focused.

[@rao77]

Best tip ever on hitting woods. I applied this on course today and executed perfectly not even a single top.or fat with my 3 or 4 wood. Broke 100 for the first time (96) 👍

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. So simple to hit these shots solidly. Glad you tried it and are seeing results. Keep at it. I have taught many people in your situation who took a break and are getting back into it. Anyone in this situtation will hit with their arms when they get back into golf. This is due to human nature. I talk about it in this tip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKaye6uslJdlfs0

@@paulwilsongolf Well our world changed today on the range. Every fat, thin, skull, chunk, slice, dribble, shot was directly related to swing thoughts of trying to just kill it.

Then we get cocky and try to kill it, only to be humbled again and repeat the process.

[@MrKallen49]

This is so funny - the mental side of golf. Many times one tenses up in order to nail a better second shot to make up for a poor drive. Thanks for the great reminder.

[@markgarabedian282]

Paul, I have never seen a golf teacher who emphasized eliminating tension in the golf-swing as you have. As a self-professed "head-case", I unfortunately tend to get MORE tense rather than the opposite as a round of golf progresses; your teaching style and demeanor always give me hope. Breeeeeathe....

[@paulwilsongolf]

And I will keep emphasizing it. I know what it did for my swing many years ago and the tens of thousands of student I have taught. No way would I teach anything different. Just got to understand "why" then do a few changes and gets used to some new feelings. Once you do, you will never look back. You can do it!

[@MrKallen49]

Paul you are absolutely spot on about the situations that lead to hitting poor fairway woods. My best shots from 200+ yards out have come from a more effortless swing with less emphasis on nailing a heroic shot to save par. Have recently acquired a new 7 wood and I am struggling a bit off the deck - I will use your advice and see if I can't hit it better. Thanks!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. Yes, try this for the 7 wood. That is a pretty easy club to hit. You shouldn't have a problem.

[@jpbernie72]

Paul you are so right on the psychology of the fairway wood. I figured out my personal technique (which might work for others as well) is that I have to watch the ball as I’m hitting it. One time I had to carry the ball at least 170 yards over a large body of water. I thought well, I’m going to lose this ball or top it and it will dribble up to the pond (so I didn’t really care about the carry distance I just wanted to try it). I watched the ball, hit a good strike and couldn’t see it due to the sun angle. So, as I drove up I looked first on the close side of the pond and then on the far side of the pond and I still could not find my ball. I looked approximately 25 to 30 yards up the hill toward the hole and lo and behold there was my ball. I can’t remember what I did after that with the chip in put but I will never forget that clean three wood shot.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Yes, this can happen especially when you are learning it.

[@davidnorris8146]

Another great video Paul I've been practicing your swing and hip movements and I'm hitting the ball so much I'm 62 yrs young so not got the same movement but watching these vids I'm getting there I've dropped from 26 hcp to 21hcp in just over month and won the July medal so thanks again Paul

[@paulwilsongolf]

Very good. Just keep at it. Try to not work on too many things at once. Main things would be loose wrists so they hinge and rehinge. Not trying to hit with your arms. Using the legs and hips for power. Stay focused.

Paul- Thanks for the great tip. For an older golfer of 68 years old, please keep those tips coming. Besides topping shots, can you help me with popping up tee shots with my driver. Thanks as always.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. Thanks. Skying is you getting your head ahead of the ball in the downswing. This is due to hitting with your arms. I still remember the last ball I ever skyed. After that, I kept my head behind the ball as I hit the ball. Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKulmJyLnd6leJY

[@Maverick-rq7uu]

Awesome video!! Keep them coming.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks! Will do!

[@danyouse409]

Hi Paul - I love the Spalding Lee Trevino woods story - aounds like Spalding knew their buying market! You are so great and animated in your videos - with all the experience you have teaching golf, you could definitely do stand-up comedy! Thanks for another great golf tip!

[@paulwilsongolf]

I would literally check those clubs out every time I wandered around the shop. They sat on that rack for years. The pro should have allowed people to tape them up and hit them. They would have seen great fairway woods shots instantly. Probably ended up in the junk yard. Not sure about stand up. I do say it like it is though which can be funny to most and a few thin skinned babies get turned off. If you can't handle me then your playing the wrong game.

[@georgefisher1568]

Great instruction ! Thanks, do you hinge woods and irons ? GF

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you like it. Thanks. Yes, hinge with all clubs.

[@Chowyanh]

You are truly a good coach. I wish there was a way we could get you to Tanzania for a golf clinic. Everything you coach l try it out and it helps my game.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks. I appreciate it. I can actually work with anyone, anywhere in the world now with my new app. It is live, video coaching. You can find out more here: bodyswing.com/coachlink People who have used it are loving it because now they know what to work on. This is not swing analysis. This is live video coaching. Take a look.

[@joeyc1739]

another informative Paul Wilson lesson

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks. Glad you liked it.

[@davee3951]

Something that has really helped me is thinking about starting the ball over an intermediate target 30 to 50 yards out. I think that this helps to eliminate the "distance" thought.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Great. Glad you tried it. Never think distance on these shots. If so you will watching it rolling down the fairway.

[@dwak222]

Thank you. Much needed after today’s round of golf. I’ll apply the lesson next time I play. #StressFreeGolf

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you found me. You will be hitting great fairway woods in minutes.

[@paulwilfridhunt]

Makes sense thanks Paul

[@paulwilsongolf]

So easy to get people nailing those fairway woods. I tell them in 6 balls they will hit them perfectly ... and they do!

[@hlubmos2chah945]

Spot on! Will try to remember that. Hope to solve my inconsistent 3 or 5 FW woes. Thanks.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Perfect! So easy once you understand it.

[@MrFosterland]

Hey Paul - love the instruction style you use: it’s very easy to understand. I was wondering if you could make a video similar to your drill for ball position/ stance for distance away from the golf ball. I think I have a good understanding of it, but it would be helpful for a Paul Wilson style demo video to confirm that! Thank you for all your tips.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thank you for the support. I already did one on most of this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWaYdJ9jl952p5o Distance from ball - 6-7" with irons a little farther with woods.

[@bobplunkettsr.3964]

I can definitley relate your observation. So many times, I have experienced this phenomenon! Getting a great shot with expectations of another great follow up shot with the wood! And, BIBGO, just as you described, a hard swing with a frustrating topped shot! Thanks for sharing your swing thoughts.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you like it. Have to stay focused and know the situation before you hit the shot.

[@johnbouchard4991]

Great video. Thank you very much. Very good instructor

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks so much.

[@steviefresh5343]

“Your never gonna make the green”…haha. Loved this video. So true

[@paulwilsongolf]

For sure. People need to play to their level.

[@Loccutus28]

I think I have seen that Spaulding club at Goodwill. It does have that "bulge on it." It is a very heavy club. Thank you for your video, Paul. I have a good friend I have played golf with for the last six years. He can really hit a long drive, but when it comes to fairway woods, he tops it to often. I hope this will help.

[@paulwilsongolf]

It was a long time ago. Probably 30 years old. Glad you liked the tip. Let him know. It's not fun watching other people struggle.

[@Mrmarksay]

Paul, how about some tips on ball position with this club?

[@paulwilsongolf]

1 ball inside your heel.

[@craiggcameron]

Brilliant tip all in one take!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lennyjung1290]

Hi Paul. I really enjoy your KZbin vids. Does your swing setup change if you want to use the fairway wood as a pinch shot versus a sweep. How does this pinch differ from punching the ball by delofting the irons?

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks so much. Here is my tip on punch shots. This should answer your question: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJa8ZIignrOSitU

[@AntonakisDemetriou]

That's another problem solved hopefully Paul, I'll be trying this as soon as possible. Thanks

[@paulwilsongolf]

Easy to fix. Literally within 6 balls you will be hitting perfect fairway woods. I prove this all of the time. From topping to perfect 6 shots max.

[@grahamrichardson7851]

This is me all over quite often a distance thought when playing with bigger hitters.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Right. You need to play your own game. Beat them with consistency.

[@antonakisdemetriou4866]

A good sense making tip Paul and I must admit I'm guilty of that too, being tense and trying to hit it as hard as I can and looking up

[@paulwilsongolf]

Absolutely. So many people do this. Let it go.

[@bedeashby6323]

Great advice

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. I have helped countless people hit amazing fairway woods within 6 balls.

[@AaronShaHome]

Great mental set! And lead to a forest result ! Thank you for sharing!!

[@paulwilsongolf]

Glad you liked it. Thanks.

[@faridokhovat-alavian5074]

Yet another amazing, very very helpful and problem solving session from Paul. Thanks 🙏

[@paulwilsongolf]

Happy to help!

[@rballersUnited]

Another easy to understand concept. Paul you have a way of communicating ideas that are easy to incorporate. Just wanted to say thanks again for the tip of having a tee six inches back and a little inside to use as an aim point to fix the over the top swing. Practicing this has resulted in the greatest improvement in my swing, ever!

[@paulwilsongolf]

I appreciate that! Keep in mind this is a quick fix (that works) you should also watch these: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJXTmaeeeLZsjK8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZOoXpuwib2ahNE kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJSzfpJ8iNR7hK8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZ3Jl32wl9ieo68 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pme8iJx4hdOEp6s

[@marc6652]

I think it should be the same with the driver, hybrides and long irons, isn't it ? I saw some improvement with slowing down my swing. But I must admit that I still think "distance". So I'll add your tip to become more efficient with all my clubs. Thanks Paul.

[@paulwilsongolf]

Yes, do this with all clubs. Get more power with the legs not the arms. Stay loose!

[@adadika]

his teaching is fantastic

[@paulwilsongolf]

Thanks so much. I appreciate it.

[@miketeys8958]

Paul, have I got this correct, in your bunker tip , do you actually aim for the ball in your down swing, and because of your pre set adjustments the club with automatically hit behind ball ..Mike Teys

[@paulwilsongolf]

You are hitting the ball without thinking of hitting it. You know it will be hit. If you fixate on hitting it you will never get through it.
