An excellent summary of Julian's teaching ideas. Older golfers can improve & continue the game thanks to his sensible & practical suggestions.

[@JeffPassageCPA]

Played 18 holes today. I'm a senior, so I played from the forward tees. I am new to Easiest Swing. Things went well. 45 front 46 back. I short sighted myself enough to keep me from going lower. 91 is my personal best lifetime. Thanks Julian and Jo for your help.

[@JulianMellor]

That’s great to hear. So pleased for you 👏👍

[@nickabbott5676]

another great reminder of what we should be doing, thanks julian

[@JulianMellor]

My pleasure Nick.

[@richardgunter4677]

All excellent points, thanks for posting video. Only comment is shaft lean for irons but not driver. Set sole of driver on ground then grip shaft actually leans slightly back.

[@gedgamble3829]

Hi Julian, I kind of lost my way with my swing, but this video really helped me to 'reset'. The part that helped the most was your advice on achieving the correct posture. I applied it on the course today and found my swing again. Sometimes, it's the very basics that matter. Thank you.👍

[@JulianMellor]

That’s great to hear Ged, you’re right we should never skip the set up as it’s the foundations to the swing

[@robbpokorny49]

YAY Jo is back! Awesome coaching as usual, love the questions Jo askes that most would have if watching! Top self video again.

[@JulianMellor]

Thanks Robb, I like the questions Jo asks too, it’s important to answer them as quickly as they are asked just like when I’m coaching.

[@Jocameronuk]

Thank you!!! It’s good fun to be back 👍

[@richyclubsport5155]

Good to see you back Julian, i worked all winter on a shorter back swing, and changing to a stronger 3-4 knuckle grip, I'm now almost 70, actually hitting it further and more accurately than ever with 3/4 swing including my driver.

[@JulianMellor]

Thank you for your kind words Richy, pleased that you are hitting the ball so well. Always nice to playing some nice golf 👍

[@johnschwartz1536]

All excellent suggestions Julian for senior golfers! One thing that I have done was gone to a triangular movement (shoulders, arms, and club)and flexible wrists in my swing. Being a "super senior" I do probably get back to your 3/4 suggestion and still get reasonable distance and very good accuracy by doing so. I try to stay centered in my swing by using pressure points rather than weight transfer in my swing. As you, I agree that ball position is critical and yesterday was thinking about moving the ball back somewhat as you suggested in this video. Several years ago, I switched to graphite and to hybrids replacing long irons and mid irons. Well Done Julian!

[@JulianMellor]

Thank you for your kind words and support, John. I know that a lot of coaches ignore senior golfers and yet we make up the majority of golf club memberships. It’s important that we all share our thoughts and feelings. 👍😀👏

Thank you David 👍

[@nightwolf2666]

Wonderful video, however, as a 53 yr. old golfer, I started using an exaggerated "flared" stance this year (trying to model PGA Pro, Grant Waite), and it has worked wonders because I just don't have the lower back flexibility that I did as a teenager. You should do a video on the benefits of that.

[@JulianMellor]

Thanks for your kind comment, I’m annoyed at myself as the flared feet is something I advise golfers to do often and I forgot to mention it in this video. Appreciate the prompt and I’ll certainly create a video on this subject 👍💯

[@nightwolf2666]

Correct, also, one other thing I forgot to mention is that my PGA teacher encourages older golfers to experiment with choking down on the club, it makes is feel lighter and actually increases club head speed...at least for me it did. Cheers! @@JulianMellor

[@ljsb5289]

Very helpful video. I’ve been trying out new drivers recently and somehow lost my whole swing. I’m hoping these drills will help me feel flexible and coordinated again. Thanks.

[@JulianMellor]

They will certainly help, try not to over think your swing if possible 😀

[@alangoudie2299]

Thank you for your valuable tips. I am 80 years old & still play regularly. As my average drive with the latest fitted Ping driver is only 145 yards I prefer playing off the shorter red tees. Off the yellow tees I struggle to score less than 100. Playing off the red tees I usually score in the low 90's. I prefer to enjoy a game with a realistic target. My short game makes up for my 7 wood only going an average of 120 yards. What do you think about my way of playing golf?

[@JulianMellor]

I think it’s a fantastic way to play Alan, who cares how long a hole is 👍 it about enjoying playing the game that’s all

[@alangoudie2299]

I appreciate your positive reply.@@JulianMellor

[@jamespark3399]

Enjoyed your video. I try lifting my lead heel but on the downswing I somehow early extend and block shots. User error obviously 😊

[@JulianMellor]

Thanks for your kind comment James, make sure you are following the flight of the balls with your eyes on the follow through 👍

[@jamespark3399]

Thanks for your reply. I’ll try your tip tomorrow 😊

[@kellymiller7859]

Julian, I must say thank you because your swing is working well for me. What I have found thus far is the easier & smoother I swing the straighter & farther the ball goes. This has to be due to consistently striking the ball more in the middle of the club face. A helpful tip I wanted to throughout, I was having trouble losing long irons to the right. On the range I started closing my clubface at setup just a little with 4 & 5 iron and now hitting beautiful baby draws. Cheers to you Julian!

[@JulianMellor]

That’s awesome to hear, couldn’t be more pleased for you

Every time I perform #3, I hit pull hooks because I swing outside in. That hip motion has to move upward and then around to work for me.

[@JulianMellor]

Sound good to me 👍

[@richardc6932]

Hi Julian, have you thought of making a short video instructing your subscribers on how to set up to target. I am not the only one that struggles with setup (aim) to the intended target, not necessarily the pin. I see golfers using an alignment rod but not sure if this rod is pointing to the target since the ball sits off from the alignment rod. What is the rod pointing to ? I am sure you have explained it in a prior video but I just can’t find it now. Thanks again.

[@JulianMellor]

I can do that no problem, Richard thanks for the suggestion👍

[@atfinthehouse8631]

Mobility of lower back is the most common area of loss of mobility. This often will not, can not be regained. So focus on processes that manage the swing more efficiently and effectively.

[@JulianMellor]

Indeed, process is key and awareness of your movement

[@davidmuncer7392]

julian just seen this vid vey good, is there any reason why the three club routine can not be used mid round if you get out of tempo

[@JulianMellor]

That’s a good question David, I don’t see any reason why not 👍

[@kenhuebner7223]

Another great video Julian! Thank you. Unrelated strange question; do you sell shirts like the one you are wearing?

Hi Ken, thank you for your kind comment, very much appreciated. We are looking at getting some shirts in from Footjoy. Would you want a logo on or plain?

[@fatboy228]

Julian, Starting at about 4:10 you show the cocking and uncococking of the wrists. Do you immediately unlock at the top as you’re doing - like throwing from the top - or does the uncocking come later in the swing? Thanks for you teaching.

[@JulianMellor]

It happens quit naturally around about hip height. I wouldn’t start it too early in the downswing but don’t hold on to it too long either. Funnily enough I’ve just made a 10 part series on the roll of the wrists for the members of propergolfing.com 👍
