Hi I’m Matt Lockey, welcome to my Coach Lockey KZbin Channel. This KZbin channel is designed to help you play better golf, and to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf course vlogs, golf challenges, golf tips, golf lessons, golf club reviews and the odd golf club unboxing. So pretty much everything golf!
I want to help you play better golf by providing coaching videos on all topics about golf. How to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
As well as helping you produce the best long game you can have, I will help you lower your scores by chipping better, stopping duff and thin chips, pitching the ball closer and creating backspin like the tour pros. Finally, I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts too!
If you enjoy the channel make sure you hit subscribe and also tap the notification bell so that you are always notified when I release a new video.

I have struggled with standing up for years. I did not realize that the root cause was lack of tilt. Excellent video, thank you!

[@CoachLockey]

Glad it was helpful!

If you maintain your spine angle by keeping your eyes on the ball without raising your head or lowering your eye line, then get your shoulder well under your chin, try and get it near the ball, past is a big ask if you're a bit old! If you do that your hip tilt will be natural. You can't keep your head still, maintain a spine tilt and get your shoulder under your chin without tilting your hips. I'm not sure if this was good advice or not but I was once told to imagine I had my chin pressed down onto a brick wall and I had to keep it there until the club was past waist level on the follow through.

Excellent job Coach in explaining the proper "tilt and turn" hip and shoulder procedure in the golf swing! This is something I've been working on. One problem I've been having is "body stall" or not completing the swing. It definitely does have an effect on the outcome of the shot! Well Done! Keep up the good Work!!

[@wickdghost3639]

I made this change at the end of last summer and started making so much better contact and got much better compression. Made a tremendous difference in my iron play and driver accuracy 👍💪

[@CoachLockey]

Nice work! Keep it up bruh.

[@wickdghost3639]

@@CoachLockey I can say the same to you brother. Love the content and can't wait for more 👍

[@pbode1]

Thanks for the tips. I still have to thank Padraigs channel, the first instruction vids I started watching after my fitting in August last year. He focused practically only on the tilt, which worked for me, because that feels to me that motion will spin your hips anyway. Also saw one USA instructor comparing the motion to starting an old fashioned motorized lawn mower. Which only works if you are old enough to know what such a device looks like :-)

[@Charles-xq6mr]

Great explanation, have been working on the hips...now I'll start on the tilt! It's a good winter time work out!! Cheers!!

[@bigdog33bad]

Well done Coach, great video. I'm going to the indoor range this weekend to try this out. Cheers!

[@spodbw1]

Tried this on the range today and its 100% gold 👍 thank you 👌

[@CoachLockey]

No problem 👍

[@SolomonLi]

Awesome little check point with the thumbs in the pocket bruh! As a round grinds on I can feel my body getting lazy with the tilts and turns… Thanks Coach! Brilliant as always… Speaking of Mark… Have you boys been to New Zealand? I think both your families ought to take a trip if you can… Saw a channel with course vlogs there called Taco Golf. Beautiful courses… I think the Muppet Tour needs to gear up and set out!!!

[@matthewmartindale4950]

Great tip coach.

[@CoachLockey]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@alunpugh6301]

Thanks Coach, really well explained ,just tried this at home and am looking foreward to trying this at the driving range tomorrow.

[@CoachLockey]

Have fun!

[@peteraloisio3533]

Really simply explained coach. Thanks for that. Will be trying it before the weekend.

[@CoachLockey]

Have fun! Hope it helps 👍

Great stuff coach. Love it. A great demo of the tilt and turn move.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Matt

[@jerrysmiley1084]

Excellent as always.

[@CoachLockey]

Thanks 🤩

[@jeffworthington9286]

Hi, loved your content , can I ask you about what starts first in this movement of hips and shoulder turn , should my left shoulder go down to initiate my hip to turn and go up. I am always confused about this . Regards Jeff.

[@CoachLockey]

Hips will start the downswing as the upper body is still finishing the backswing for good players.

[@richardpascoe1859]

HI matt. Will this "THUMBS IN POCKET" automatically tilt the shoulders as well... i hope so. One less swing though.

[@CoachLockey]

Not automatically as you can still put the wrong side tilts in but I would try this and see if it helps your shoulder tilt. If it does great, if it doesn’t, you’re going to have to think about that too 👍

[@vancity2349]

Great tip Coach. My muscle memory and natural swing has not much hips turning and therefore mostly hands/arms with a short backswing. I am an 11 handicap and at 64 I don't think I can change...lol

[@CoachLockey]

yes you can, keep grinding!

[@vancity2349]

@@CoachLockey I will try...

[@mickritchie1815]

Good tip. What grips are you using on your irons? Look nice.

I discovered recently how much proper hip movement improves strike, just by working things out in the backyard hitting net. Thanks for the video confirming my thoughts and explaining the concept in detail Coach! #DidIHitThat? #OGLockeyArmy

[@CoachLockey]

Glad to help! haha did i hit that 😂

[@GenXDaddyO]

@@CoachLockey I’m rewatching that course vlog right now while I’m working - you, James Pickard, and Crossfield playing a medal at Saunton East in a gale - and laughing my ass off. Probably my favorite course vlog of all time.

[@markryan2896]

🤚🏻 yes I have and still do use this hip tilt drill. But I swear if I see dads, husbands now doing this hip tilt dance in department store windows while the wife is inside shopping for a new duvet you know you’ve ’made it’ coach. 😀🤘🏻🇦🇺

[@CoachLockey]

Love it!! If you do see it, send me a picture of it haha

[@andymat7359]

The old outdated adage of keeping the trail knee bent has ruined a lot of golf and even more backs! Good golfers and old hat coaches take it too far making you exaggerate this terrible technique and it results in nowhere near enough hip rotation. I started doing this last year, allowing the back leg to straighten but not lock out, first and foremost my back hardly hurts after even an hour at the range or full 18 holes, I have a smoother swing, more control, faster speeds, better contact, tighter dispersion, cleaner strikes.... The list goes on! Great work coach. 👍

[@harrykorver9690]

What’s the thing above your eye? Better have it checked to make sure it’s not malignant

Thanks but it’s just a accident that’s now a scab, already gone 👍
