How to swing the golf club correctly

[@michaeldandrea1725]

Forget the shot tracer bullshit. Your videos simplify the most taught and least learned human endeavor better than anyone( tour pro, teaching pro,KZbin "pro") I've ever watched or read. Keep doing exactly what you do,please!Jimmy,you and Old Man Pat from Golf mates show us all how to simplify,mentally and physically,this game that we love to play but never quite figure out by using common sense and checking our ego at the parking lot.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

thanks for watching

[@kennymacm3031]

What a great analogy 👍

[@keithmoody8884]

Hay Tropicana a light bulb just went off. The way you have explained the swing just now. Connected with me the throwing thing not the hitting thing. Dude you are the man !!! You explain it in a simple way. Keep up the work for us simple minded guys. Thanks keith

[@sammcbride9822]

What a swing thought! Talk about simplifying the game.....mind blown. Keep the videos rolling! Thank you Jimmy!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thank you for watching!

[@hermannluttmann1637]

I discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love all your videos. You speak directly to the 99% of us out here who are just trying our best to play decent, respectable golf and fully enjoy this wonderful sport. Your tips cut through all the super-technical BS (that I still admittedly watch almost every day) that only ends up getting me thinking about too much at the same time and thereby screwing up my entire swing. So thanks for helping me think more simply and more clearly - and thanks also for making me laugh out loud while I learn how to play this game better. Good luck and keep doing what you're doing. You make golf fun again!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Hey thanks for watching! Im more actual than factual. I need metaphors not technical jargon and I think people do to.

[@ProfMash]

I’m old and my brain is slow, but the concepts and ideas you talk about make sense to me. It’s like finding someone who speaks my language. Thank you and keep it going!!

[@WesleyLuke-t4w]

Yo Jimmy, love your videos! Dropped 6-8 shots over a couple of weeks by eliminating my mistakes. Keeping it simple (ie: "Low & Slow" and "Throwing the Ball") is the key to moving toward PAR golf. The key to success is the way you explain the why & how! Best training videos ever!

[@MichaelP11]

Can't say it enough, but your videos are the best on the net IMO about golf. Simple and to the point.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Hey! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching. Hoping they help

[@rickeyfoster852]

Another great video Jimmy. That is the best description of the golf swing I have ever seen. You’re the only channel I watch for golf tips and advice now.

[@clausmonsson4799]

[@CT-ob2bw]

Dude... Basic simple to the point no commas! Best vid I've ever seen for 90s and 100s players. This basic instruction will eventually turn these players into 80s and so on with correct practice. Wisdom in simplicity! Bravo.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thats the point my brotha. Bring those scores down!! Thanks for watching and for the comment!

[@johankaarekarlsen1383]

Thanks in advance. -Jimmy tropicanagolfshop.com/products/the-new-tropicana-ball

[@alisonburgess345]

Good one Jimmy. One of your ideas (which seems to have gone) is the 70% power swing, which I love and will use forever. Your approach to this is so original - you're a very talented presenter too!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thank you for the comment. Ive changed 70% to 69% its much easier to remember 🤣 thanks for watching

[@stevecampbell5928]

I love how you make playing golf so simple. I have filled my head with crazy swing thoughts and tips that have me hitting the ball all over the place. I can't even break 90! I'm going to start using your tips and leave the driver in the bag most of the time.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Love it! If it is wide open and you cant miss, hit the driver. Other than that, keep it on grass!

[@KJT1950]

This is a refreshing approach to both the big picture and the intricacies of golf. You have a new fan! Well done, sir. Keep it real.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching!!!

[@charlesgallagher7371]

I discovered your channel a week or so ago. Jim, there is athletic simplicity here, and it is so welcoming from an execution perspective. As I come out of New England winter on a trip south a few weeks from now, I'm going to organize my approach to getting back into the game by following a number of your basic fundamentals. I know there is a high probability I can perform them with success. You present an organized KISS approach which will get me off on the right foot. Thanks for your ideas, they present a doable framework I know I can handle.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

I love to hear it. Let me know how it works for you.

[@71hernandez]

Really enjoy how you simplify the game . As a former baseball player I've had the hardest time getting a proper golf swing , but throwing a large heavy ball was a good explanation. I'm going to try that.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

its a great feeling. I have a new one coming tomorrow that will make it even easier. thanks for watching

[@TW3NTY2]

Coming from a baseball / softball background I greatly appreciate this video! I was told the same thing, that the swing was the same but on a different plane. Loving the simple tips and swing thoughts!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Love to hear it.

[@griffy2000]

As of late I have been using the basic thoughts you're preaching and it has definitely has helped. Thanks for the declutterization.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thats what im here for. Thanks for watching!

[@davidhester9716]

I wonder how many golf instructors could demonstrate their instructions on the course like you routinely video. Maybe a few, but probably not a large percentage. I am putting those 3 and 4 foot putts much more consistently now, thanks to your advice to follow the ball with the putter. Thanks for the super videos!

[@bestgolfnoob]

Jimmy cant tell ya how bad I need these videos right now. Thanks a million!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Hey, I’m glad these videos are helping. Thanks for watching.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

I appreciate that comment. Thanks!

[@golfdoc1950]

I like your channel and your advice. One quibble today: Ben Hogan, in his Five Fundamentals book, likens the golf swing to a two handed basketball bounce pass, just as you do.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

It’s a great metaphor for the golf swing. Thanks for watching.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

You got it. Keep at it. Hope it helps.

[@deeterfly]

Excellent video. No mumbo jumbo just real golf stuff for the average guy or gal.

[@steveyoung9264]

Awesome videos, keeping everything relaxed and simple . So many throw all kinds of confusing explanations. I’ve learned so much and have taken those lessons with me onto the course. Thanks Jimmy !

[@patmarilyndanna1920]

Why does it Skip to a commercial at the Crucial point of Impact in your golf swing?

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thats how youtube keeps these videos free

[@EricJD1966]

Jimmy I struggle with having a consistent bottom of my swing. I can have a fat, thin and flush off club on same hole. I only take a divot when I chunk a fat shot where the sod behind the ball travels about as far as the ball:). Any advice you can give is appreciated. Love your videos

[@DaveH1969]

Love your style m8 pretty well using the KISS system. I have had that many thoughts going thru my head lately when I swing. After getting down to a 12 handicap from 21 in 8 months I have started stagnating or even going backwards. Going to start using your few swing thoughts and hopefully get back on track towards a single figure HC. Cheers

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Thats great! Im glad you’re watching. Good luck on bringing the handicap down. You can do it!

[@DysonGuthrie-jy3ns]

I agree. I used to turn and fight with my swing constantly. I just learned to not turn, feel like I'm keeping my left hip pointed to the left, don't turn and just swing. I always thought I had to get a big turn to generate speed. Not true.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

do less. get more.

[@tommyfarley463]

Awesome as always. I will use the "follow the ball to the cup" tip this weekend. I really need a short game lesson.

[@TheManiac978]

Dude, throwing the bowling ball helped my game so much. Can’t wait to take it to the range and try it out.

[@TigerTigerWoodsYall]

Smoothswing for IPhone is a great shot tracer. It records tracer live, you do not at the line after. It's great give it a try

[@sumsar0125]

Great video as always. Instead of a shot tracer you should incorporate a real-time zoom on the shot the way Good Good does it - you might need a dedicated camera guy for that though. Either way, I'm loving the videos. I have a nasty habit of constantly changing up my swing - every time I come home from the range/course a have new swing thoughts that I want to integrate. All in the hopes of an extra 10 yards or whatever. This leads to stress (mental + physical) and worse golf/scores. I'm currently at 18HCP; this season the goal is to get sub 10 HCP using the Tropicana Method (butt to the button, no hero shots, chill the F out and have fun) - wish me luck 🍀

[@PGKOURY1]

Jimmy. Can’t wait to try this new simple technique. Does the swing and motion apply to your driver and FW woods as well? I’m assuming yes.

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

Yep. Works for everything. Smooth swinging! Thanks for watching

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

[@zanebickerstaff6274]

JImmy, I have a question...Many instructional videos advise that you get the hands ahead of the ball and de loft the club...I can understand this if it's windy...But why turn a 7 iron into a 6 or a 5? Why not allow the club to do what it was designed to do? I'm thankful that you have simplified the game with your common sense advice!

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

hands first impact is important because it doesn't ADD loft. You want to compress the ball into the ground.

[@cutigeralum1]

How are you holding the grip and are you putting the ball directly in the middle of the club face?

[@TropicanaEntertainment]

ill do a video about it soon. Thanks for watching . Please visit www.tropicanagolfshop.com for more goodies. - Jimmy

[@sasquatch8923]

I'm like you, I can't have all that shit going on in my mind while I swing. I watched your video last week (arms glued to chest Ben Hogan) and have had the best week of golf of my life. I've only been playing a year. Never got a birdie in one year, I've had three in the last week and my score has come WAY down. My hardest issue now is just relaxing on every swing. I still tense up.

Weird, but your Jacuzzi method on long putts worked better for me envisioning the people you mention in the hot tub.

Like your show cause its different, playing holes without editing, one swing thought, do not focus on body parts. You're right, get that swing thought, wave to Camara or bowling ball and you have it. Tracers are overrated and doesn't mean anything to the average golfer. If players would listen to your no nonsense advice they would knock dozens of strokes off like using safe clubs, taking 3 strokes with irons to reach oar 5s. Most importantly accepting a bogey and moving on.
