How to STOP the Flip Roll Golf Swing Release

[@martynbarter6151]

Had my lesson with Marcus last week. He did all these drills with me it was an absolute mind blowing game changer in how to swing a club and play a golf shot. The toe divot drill is the the first time I’ve ever experienced a proper release. The hop and swing completely changed my understanding of timing. I’m working through my lesson video systematically, he’s given me the “toolbox” . I’ve never enjoyed range sessions so much, as Marcus says “ It’s the playground “.

[@cj8683]

youre the only person interested in explaining how to swing a club. everyone else is trying to milk out as many lessons as possible

[@MrA8figureman]

Get this down and the game is so much easier. This is GOLD🎉

[@roncowper5785]

Probably the best explanation of the correct golf swing I’ve seen. Thanks.

[@salmansiddiqi6117]

There is no better teacher than Marcus. No comparison to the other channels

[@Jayspencergolf]

New to the game of golf anc your videos have been the easiest to understand! Thank you

[@richardsmith825]

This has changed my ball strikimg massively. I no longer feel like the ball is going anywhere but where I am aiming. Superb tip and yet another amazing video from the zen boys.

[@lucnguyen8604]

This video did it for me. I'm hitting like never before! Thank you Marcus.

[@alandavis5059]

Absolutely a brilliant video great explanation

[@jammuu]

Amazing summary of golf fundamentals.

[@GRFGolf]

Appreciate it 👊

[@JR-Greenkeeper-Leeds]

These well informed videos are exactly what I need to understand it better, thankyou!

[@mrkipling3841]

Absolute gold dust! Thanks Marcus!

Thank you, Lord Kipling

[@jimmybyars1894]

Thanks Marcus. Perfect video to reinforce what you were teaching me in my lesson last week. Made it back to Texas and have started working my way through the full video of my lesson. Keep these videos coming!

[@GRFGolf]

Was great to have you, Jimmy!

[@ripTrEaD]

As always… clear, concise, logical and more importantly natural. These are the fundamentals that develop consistency in the swing and make shots repeatable, especially there where it counts …on the course. Save shots and enjoy your game more ❤❤❤ Simply #zentastic 🙏🙏 brilliantly delivered Marcus 💥🤛

[@MrLeftyno1]

Great video, i like to think of the swing like using a bullwhip kind of motion, again some real nuggets in this video.

[@ggaspord]

Thanks Mr. Z. I never thought of the swing that way.

[@johnnybravo9087]

This is an excellent video that basically covers every key aspect of the golf swing.

[@GRFGolf]

Glad to hear, Johnny!!

[@neils6735]

Brilliant video, this looks very familiar and resonates well, a great reminder!

[@mrpriceisright]

I like the idea of the double pendulum. Working with a novice golfer have been trying get across the idea of long and low extension through impact. Going to try this step and swish drill on him to see if it clicks.

[@jazzed2b]

Excellent explanation

[@markshi7052]

Totally makes sense.

[@cottlad]

Just found yr vids. excellent thanks. this is exactly what I can't get my head round... slappy hands and weight transfer. It just doesn't sink in and feels so weird after decades of thinking strike position is setup position. I'll get there I'm sure. This vid and others of yrs def food fr thought and a different thought pattern to use. thx

[@josephshawa]

Great video!

[@paulrobinson2813]

Perfect timing for this video Marcus! I was trying to compress the ball a bit more in yesterday's Medal, but hit 3 hosel rockets 😱😂 This video (straight in my Zen folder) along with my Zen lesson videos and GRFi system, will be on the range tomorrow 👍 I have been through a bit of a purple patch of golf the last few months, completely attributable to the lesson I had with Sam; I love getting called a 'Bandit' 🤣 Keep up the good work, Zen Golf is the future!

[@GRFGolf]

It's all about timing 😂😉

[@paulrobinson2813]

@@GRFGolf Well, the range session went amazingly well! Utilised this video and the ball striking was so much better 👍⛳️

[@vanstromi7810]

This was a great explanation. Didn’t love the exercises though but not sure I’m fully understanding the concept. I’ll try them again at the range next time though. I struggle with the shaft lean I believe. Very consistently having issues with snap hooks and low point before the ball.

[@ayotollaofrockandrolla7219]

Great video. I do the handle swing like you. But too draw it . I loop it behind me and out. And then I do the second pendulum by feeling I add speed to the handle after the ball. Seems to work

[@simmo5071]

The kettlebell as prescribed by Dr Kwon gives the best feedback for the correct weight transition. Until I used one, the method didn’t sink in one try and naturally your weight shifts to the correct foot. Between you and Kwon the methods are darn near identical, just different styles of explaining the technique. Pure magic for a student to learn from watching videos and trying to capture the essence of the teachers lesson. How I love this game.

[@jwest7650]

Agree, I’m following both

[@darrellduffy3866]

Been waiting on a video showing what hands should be doing at release for a long time. This release feels like I’m rolling the club face over the ball. How you explain the two pendulums and flail also makes a lot of sense. Looking forward to trying it 👍

[@GRFGolf]

Good stuff, Darrell. Let us know how you get on!

[@darrellduffy3866]

…so here’s how I’ve got on, struggled at first, duck hooks, thins and so different to how I have been releasing, felt like everything is going way left. However, I’ve persevered and am now hitting it straighter than I have for a long time, lower ball flight, still a few more thins than I’d like but am trusting the process and will stick with it 👍

[@garthpickersgill9501]

Outstanding…..’nuff said!

[@77bovi]

Love this topic. If you could please clarify, from @4:50 you show 3 supposedly different movements. 1st is the no forearm "flip", 2nd the "noisy" one that requires a lot of practise (forearms turn over). However the 3rd that is your ideal, looks exactly like the 2nd.

[@allanmannion9028]

Great content, would love to see a tour pro come in and see what zen would do for them

[@GRFGolf]

Video of a lesson coming soon... 👀

[@davebucks3806]

I have been suffering from the flips and inconsistent striking for so long from duck hooks etc. I'm going up the range to try this

[@garethneal3235]

Brilliant video

[@barrywinning5392]

Thank you I am a flipper when the club is lagging I often shank the ball do you have the reason why.

[@jsquid369]

Marcus thanks for doing what you do. your videos have really changed the online golf coaching game. You're single handedly leveling up 1000s of golfers. Not sure why your channel has so few views still.. Starting to see your content being plagiarised by other KZbin coaches now.

[@alexBaldman]

damn right sir!

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

Danny Maude is a classic on this, he has been plagiarising them for quite a while, his vids alway pop up a few days after Marcus has posted his, even copies the verbals, not knowing some of them are made up just for him, haha

[@markk171]

Wish I could fly over the pond and take a few lessons. Marcus, have you done any videos to help cure the dreaded block shot? I hit my irons and fairway woods ok, but man, my driver I block right. I hit it far enough and very solid but just block it right...no slice just straight right... any videos you have that might address this issue? Thanks!

[@vicpnut1]

Great golf advice to the mellow intoxicating sounds of dirt bikes racing ….is there anything better ? 😜👍🏼✌️

[@mattthompson1063]

I have seen a lot of your videos but none that talk about backswing.do you encourage rolling of the forearms or keeping the face square and then hinging back?

[@ulster7717]

Would you advise the two pendulum action in short game. Or just set up with weight on lead side and use the one ?

[@jack-hq7gr]

Almost too good to be true- but makes perfect sense. Uncock and roll or flip release seems the most common tip… “can’t release too soon and directing center of mass out and around… I think I should take tennis lessons.

[@claudiochisani4120]

Excellent, thank you Marcus! Quick question: is this the same with the driver and the handle ahead of the club head? Same feeling as irons or different? Much appreciated.

[@nikoralewis]

Marcus..NZ has the most golf courses per capita.. time for a trip down under 😆

[@iainmaclean5641]

Great stuff. I noticed when you did a few practice swings your draw swing low point was way behind the fade swing. I feel sometimes when i hit a shot fat, it is when I want a draw but feel swing is good i.e no early release, could the ball just be to far forward for that swing?

[@GRFGolf]

I'd perhaps look into shifting your weight (pressure) a little earlier with those fat shots as an experiment!

[@iainmaclean5641]

@@GRFGolf Thanks

[@ruudengelhart5127]

What if you don't hit the ground at all when standing on one leg or just brush it? Is that a sign of the ball being too far away?

[@catxnc]

any way those of us across the pond can send in swing video for analysis?

[@anthonyv3732]

Marcus is always money 💰…thanks man!

[@GRFGolf]

Thanks Anthony!

[@phonrawatunionbeauty6742]

Can this apply to driver?

[@Eqnotalent]

my biggest issue with my swing is my shaft lean stays lean for too long, so the face is still open. lead to straight slices or push fades. Any solution or video for this ? how to get better timing with this type of release ?

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

The face should look slightly closed at set up, leaning the shaft then squares the face up (reopens), which explains why when watching the pros, their club faces always looked closed at set up on the down the line vids. IMHO

[@18stags]

Nice practice video, same for woods? 🤔 Are you wearing my Skechers?

[@GRFGolf]

😂 will do a video for the woods, short of it is you want to catch the ball later on the arc

[@asdfghjklkljhgfdsaaa]

Does this works also for driver?

[@indybrowser67]

Do you know the approximate shipping cost to the states?

[@GRFGolf]

It adds it in the basket so you can see before purchasing 👍

[@gl686]

I am so jealous of Americans having so many grass driving ranges at their disposal. My club here in England has a practice paddock but it's so close to the course itself and having to retrieve your own balls is time consuming (time isn't something I have a great deal of with an 8 month old!) All of the driving ranges around me are standard mat ranges and you just don't get the divot feedback this is so important (as per this video).

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

I get the theory Marcus, but we don't see the Pros moving their heads from side to side, so how do we move to move the low point without the head moving about all over the place. I ended up shanking or toe ending all my wedge shots, so what am i doing wrong.

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

haha, found the reason for the toes and thins, exacxtly what you are describing in the vid, i was flip rolling, even though i thought i wasn't,

[@TTCH-ez3rg]

The other golf instructional channels are a joke, they cause more harm and confusion than is of help to your swing.

[@Otis790]

This closed face set up also allows for extreme pulls (when one never practices ) and can lead to the treaded parking lot shot . Then extreme guilt and worry set in ,leading to the tension filled extremities. Of course this leads to shanks thus returning said golfer back to the life of the flipper . One must know when to stay in ones lane

[@GRFGolf]

If you don't explore other lanes you'll never know if you're in the right one for you.

[@77bovi]

Also seems the term flip is used differently by diff people. Many call turning the hands/forearms at impact a flip. (Low hooks). Others call a scoop (high hooks) a flip.

[@GRFGolf]
