Thanks Shane! Welcome to the channel 👍

I’ve watched a lot of golf instruction on low point and transition 😬 congrats this is for sure one of the best explanations of the swing I have seen. Fantastic thks

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad it was helpful! Many Thanks 👍

[@RickHolley-d4b]

Best golf tip ever--so simple and so effective.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Thanks!

[@desertrat1111]

Thanks Kerrod. I just came back from the driving range and I topped about 30% of my shots. This will help.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Happy to help! Let me know how it goes.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Thanks a lot 👍

[@shaunjayes8842]

I’ve watched hundreds of golf instruction videos on KZbin and must say this channel is up there with the best of them. Clear, effective and valuable lessons throughout. The “re-centering move” has been a game changer for me. Thank you for this and please keep the videos coming.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad to hear that! Many Thanks and Good luck for your game 👍

[@danpalmieri9784]

Very good

[@costo34ify]

Ooookay sure thing

[@anc1741]

I watched this this morning when I had a lazy lie in and took it to the course this afternoon, playing twelve holes. The improvement in my ball striking was instant. I found myself hitting the ball like I used to. It’s funny how you can slip away from these swing thoughts without even realising it. Thanks so much for these excellent videos Kerrod. I’m really impressed by how clearly you present them and how much sense it all makes. Can’t wait to play tomorrow now! Good luck with your venture. I wish you every success.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad to know 😊 Thanks for your visit and Wish you the same Good luck for your game 👍

[@OscarGonzalez-vg3cp]

So cristal clear and simple.....but muscle memory, need to educate my mind and body. Thanks Kerrod working on it.

[@gscrawford74]

This is the best explanation for starting the downswing I have ever seen. This is exactly the bad habit I catch myself falling into. I made sure to save this video the next time I feel my swing getting away from me

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad to hear.. Thanks a lot 👍

[@simmo5071]

Your description of the recentering move in a previous video is the reason I subscribed. Your the first to explain/demonstrate when this move occurs. I’m still working to stop the arms from activating at the same time.

[@kevinmurphy8644]

Just seriously excellent instruction- I’ve watched loads of utube - you are up there with the very best - thanks soooo much

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Thank you so much, Kevin!

Kerrod, this is probably the best golf instruction video I’ve ever seen. Thanks for sharing!!

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad to hear! Many Thanks 👍

[@donschmidt8203]

As fine a video on the essentials of the swing as I've seen. Your breakdown of the recentering move and the club swinging underneath imprint like a Xerox copy. Love your knowledge of the game and your swing! Smoothest looking move of any instructor online. Quickly recapping the lesson like you do ensures an automatic retention. I have already used these moves in a golf round and THEY WORK! Do what the pros do. Your videos are probably the best online. Keep them coming!

[@peterrobinson5219]

This is the first video of yours I have seen and I must say I think it’s excellent. Thank you because it made sense and you kept it simple - too many golf coaches make the swing so complicated. Looking forward to seeing more content but for now, Thank you

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Great to hear! Many Thanks 👍

Wow! This is by far the best video I've seen yet with downswing transition. I reckon I best get to the range and practice this swing.

Thank You I was spinning my shoulders to start my swing , I will try this tomorrow , THANKS

[@mosesuduagbomen8902]

Great tips. I was hoping the video would not end until you have suggested some drills to reinforce muscle memory for these amazing tips. I and few others I believe, would deeply appreciate some of these drills if you would come up with them. It’s totally awesome even without the desired drills. THANK YOU

[@djohnsonjoinery7113]

I’ve taken this advice onto the coarse today & played some decent golf, I’ve always had problems with hanging back & never been able to take a divot, Today I’ve never once topped or thinned the ball which is a 1st for me, So I’m absolutely delighted the only problem I’ve got now is that I’m fading the ball a little more than usual specially with the driver. Don’t know if I’m missing a piece of the jigsaw on the above video??? But hey thanks again for the great advice 👍 Regards David from England

[@austinzizzi1142]

[@geoffjohnston1708]

Excellent video - you've addressed the very things that are blighting my game. As a new golfer I consume endless videos on swing technique but this has been the easiest to understand. I will definitely be applying your tips next time I play.

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Glad you think so! Thanks for your visit and Good Luck for your game 👍

[@jillmorris2849]

Yes-- I agree. I am a beginner too and am watching a lot of youtube videos. You did a great job of simplifying the 3 steps. Arms out, shift weight, sequence. I will have to watch again and give each of the steps a one key word reminder. Thanks

[@pjpcadet]

C’est si Bon to hear so good advices! There are some words wich sound so good like « covering the ball »… I’m struggling with french pros from French school who can’t understand that lead shoulder must not be too up or at the opposite too flat at the impact. And I don’t speak about their fixation to load a max on the trail foot with a retroversion of the pelvis at the the top of the BS wich occurs pain on the right hip and low back! By the way, I believe that average golfers should shorten the BS. This slight and short translation is the real key for a delicious compression and for a good rythm at the DS as well. Following you from a while now I’d like to have lessons online cause you show what the top players do that can be done by weekenders. So great! So smart ! So realistic!

[@richardbaxter3586]

Hi,kerrod Great tip, you're the best. This tip changed my golf game. I'm 62 years old hit driver now around 240. I'm looking to get about 10 more yards. I know I got it I just got to get it. Do I need to get more lag in my swing or is it buit in with this drill. Man I wish you lived closer to me. I would definitely take a lesson from you. Keep up the great work. Richard

Need this. Getting to my left side has left me and I think this will help. Padraig Harrington discusses this same "bounce" move to get back to left side and stay down and through.

Hitting down and through without lifting is exactly what I need to resolve my lifting problem. Excellent video, thanks very much.

[@tajinderatwal4244]

I like this free flowing moment in the swing, tried it on the range made huge different to striking the golf ball. Thanks for the great tip.

[@bruceford9413]

Nothing much to add here. I am a swing junkie and this is one of the best there is. Always a clear explanation, if i were younger i would go for the private instruction vids. This guy is awesome, great technical knowledge and a gift for communication. Love the recentering instruction, for me the timing is crucial.

Makes perfect sense. Of course doing it is the challenge

[@pohoresky]

One of the most helpful videos on ball striking I have ever come across. A classic that puts you in high esteem when it comes to golf instruction. Not only answers to what but how and why- key criterion for assessing golf instructors and really listening to what they have to say. Wheat is separated from the chaff in this way when it coms to golf instructors with so much BS on line these days. Thank you and well done.

[@michaellampkin6640]

Great Lesson. I have been working on this and your video help point out some additional things I can add to improve my current swing with some of your tips today Thank you Mike L

"tour-player recentering move". Great observation, and really difficult to try to replicate.

[@pohoresky]

On further reflection and rewatching this video several times (highly recommended) I think you could improve on key # 3 and explaining in greater detail the what and how about the Down Swing sequence. Perhaps a separate video, as there are a lot of theories out there on this very important topic

Hi Kerrod. Could you further explain the section about 'short arm v long arm takeaway'. Both faults look clear but how do you avoid the 'long arm'.

[@peteruwatch2970]

Kerrod, one more thought. How do you recenter without getting ahead of the ball?

[@PongGod]

Wow, I really needed this video a year ago when I started working hard on my game again. After watching a video of my swing (another thing I should have been doing a long time ago!), some of the key points in this video became apparent to me, most notably keeping my arms fully extended during the backswing and down through impact. It occurred to me that the slight folding of my arms (as KG describes it) is causing my swing to bottom out early, resulting in thinned shots. The feeling of real ball compression during impact when I actually do these things correctly is so satisfying!

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Wow! Glad to hear that! Goodluck!

Question. I was on the golf course for the first time in 30 yrs I had a lot of lies where the ball was above my feet on a slope or ball below my feet on a slope. I had a terrible time hitting the ball with my fairway wood. I was hitting my woods good a the driving range but these slopes on this golf course caused my to hit topped balls. What do you suggest I do

[@patrickmadlala4614]

[@kerrodgraygolf]

Thank you, Patrick!

Very good Kerrod. So how do you do that recenter & rotate the chest & pelvis through the shot? When are you doing each?

[@williamrobertshaw1339]

Looks great, would this advice be ideal for someone who’s a bit of a picker and doesn’t take much of a divot
