Malaska Clinic Part 1: Finding The Correct Arc To Optimize Momentum

[@NocyMusic]

Malaska’s teaching theory is the most accurate once you understand it and execute it you will hit the ball effortlessly Mike is the best teacher explaining the simplicity of the golf swing

[@danfloros4267]

MIKE - By far the best teacher on the web..daylight second..cheers mate

[@shrimboy7492]

Dude.. that inside move really works!!! I tried it and my swing was much better. Ball flight straight and less work too!!! Thanks Mike!

[@GiovanniRagazzo1]

Your golf instructional videos are excellent and this particular video on momentum is precisely what it's all about for me. Well done Mike

[@dogloverjb6873]

Mike is the best... love his instruction

[@andrewstafford3618]

Best thing about Mike is he not only tells you how, he tells you why as well Thanks

[@moonface978]

This concept absolutely changed my ball striking in an instant, light bulb moment

[@thombendtsen399]

Mike Malaska is the man! Yours is the only instruction that works better the more I do it. I've heard things that helped me in the past but in almost every case too much was a just as bad as too little of whatever the "tip" was. The more I do what Mike says, the better I hit it. 3 corners and a flat spot!

[@ILoveGreatThings]

Always come back to Malaskas videos after drifting around to get back on track. Love his teachings.

[@BamaPaul]

Jack Lam me to

[@sabinodelrosario188]

Lol , me 2.

[@C.Adams82]

Quite possibly the best instruction on how to use speed and momentum.

[@GiovanniRagazzo1]

I have had at least ten different club professional golfers give me golf lessons over the last thirty years. NONE of them helped me improve my game. I was a six handicapper so fairly reasonable amateur golfer. Not one of them explained about momentum. All ten of them who shall remain nameless need to watch this video from Mike Malaska. My advice to any new golfer don't waste your time getting lessons from any club professional be very careful who you select.

[@ngeltz]

Club (PGA) professionals are the absolute worst people to get lessons from.

[@wasatchgolfacademy1046]

Malaska is a club professional.

[@michaelwelch757]

Where were u 40 years ago! Golf would have been much more enjoyable had u been around. Love what u teach! Thx. Mike

[@wadepatton2433]

Nice. Just found out about Mr. Malaska, I fully agree. I found Manuel de la Torre first (who teaches his version of his father's version of Earnest Jones' method-the proper swing I now call it.) and have recently adopted this type of swing. It has been fantastic for my accuracy and consistency. Golf is fun again! I'll look at more MG content. I like what he's sayin'.

[@dogloverjb6873]

agreed... I use MDT method also and Mike's teaching is the most similar I can find on YT.

[@georgemageras]

Thank You Mr Malaska! Finally I found a real golf instructor!!!

[@johnathanwetherill456]

Over 100,000 views and only 500 likes . WTF is wrong with you people . This is the tip you have been looking for . Show the man some Love !!!

[@MrLeftyno1]

Great video and advice, Mike explains everything very well, can see why he is a great instructor.

[@jjpac2011]

awesome analogy using the race car.

[@benis9426]

hey mike, thank you so much for your videos!!! you completely changed my approach to the game. you are the best!!!

[@jason1974ification]

I have had 0 clue how the swing was supposed to work - wow just wow - really going to try this.

[@MarkSmith-lz5rk]

God this guy is such a genius...would be incredible to climb into his mind and understand the swing thr way he does

[@tonysmock8143]

Wish I’d of taken a lesson this way 30 years ago but now is better than never

[@DocDLH]

Simply one of the best simple explanation of the physics of a golf swing without using scientific terms, etc. I love the explanation of how momentum and inertia are the true driving forces in a swing for power and consistency.

[@SuperMIKEFREE]

I love the guy in the white shorts who walks in at 1.20 for a free lesson lol Well done Sir, talk about being in the right place at the right time. Mike's the best teacher I've ever seen.

[@wesleyworkman1509]

Lol

[@wesleyworkman1509]

I like Ben Stiller in dark glasses

[@Rwilkinson85]

I love this guys instruction its next level!!!

[@capkarr]

Look at this!! The hidden mystery of the golf swing shown to us all. The game is physics and technique. I’m a college baseball player. I just incorporated my baseball swing into golf.

[@johnathanwetherill456]

This is such a easy move and the ball flight is great . Takes all the pressure off your back . Once you get used to the move . Do the the two hand split drill you will belt that ball with what seems like way less effort .

[@normankleinberg5525]

I want to follow Mike's teachings because first, they make so much sense and second, they are telling me what I WANT to hear; i.e. you don't need to drive the swing with your body, arms and hands properly used are the key. Unfortunately, his drills (e.g. "L to L", "Split Grip) don't work for me because I'm TOO handsy, I keep hitting behind the ball as I release too early. A tip on correcting hat flaw would be most appreciated.

[@MalaskaGolf]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZepq4qwoMiDl6M -- train your timing and release.

[@grahamjones7371]

Im self taught and have got down to a good standard having taken up golf late in life, one of the reasons must be some of the practice drills i do. Yes although Ive just discovered Mike, split handed swinging is in my top 5 drills But one of the main drills I did a lot of but dont do much now is a rope/towel across my back held under my arms half swings, Mike may not agree with this but together with split hand and feet together drills may make u less handsy and remember to be aware of the whole shaft at impact,like a baseball bat /tennis racket rather than hitting at the ball with the clubhead

[@grahamjones7371]

For a "whacky" practice drill swing a yard of thick rope, if you are to handsy you will whack youreself ! if you keep the body moving and release, the rope will land softly on your shoulders

[@chachifeere]

Mike I get the shanks bad once in a while You said “ keep the ends in here” When I swing should I try and keep my hands as close to the body/legs as possible

[@Thegooob95]

In my experience the hands need to go close to the legs, yes. You don’t want them going out You want them returning to where they were at address by redirecting the momentum of the club on its path (aka, tip the shaft, return the hands, let the momentum take you through impact)

[@fantmone]

Another nice video Mr. Malaska. Do you happen to have any affiliations with instructors in the St. Louis, MO metro area? I am returning to golf after a very long hiatus and as a reward for weight loss. I have tried several different instructors but cannot find one that follows your philosophy. This has ended up with me being worse than before I tried lessons.

[@SavetheWater1]

that move at 1:15

[@verena7777]

Love it!

[@steven3747]

Interesting. Mike's beliefs on the position of the hands coming down are markedly different from those of Bradley Hughes. Either that....or both instructors are trying to teach arriving at impact position using 2 drastically different concepts.

[@guitar1950]

Yes, I've watched a lot of Bradley's videos and he teaches the hands go out. I keep trying to understand the difference. Maybe because Bradley rotates his forearms??

[@ryanintro]

Mike, love your videos but this one seems like the sound is broken? All I hear is static. This happened with a few of your videos but most worked fine.

[@UberDave223]

+rianco Sound is in the left speaker only

[@christiannielsen5815]

seems like something wrong with the audio on this video now...

[@philmurphy1284]

the hard thing is keeping my right shoulder from wanting to take over ie spinning out

[@jimmysmith736]

phil murphy yep that's my problem

[@joetalburt3881]

Just posting awesome! Because nobody posted For 3 years .. boom!

[@ronyalefaio]

The guy on orange did exactly the opposite of what you are trying to teach everyone of avoiding..lol

[@Postermaestro]

well that would mean that he was doing it right

[@choco5606]

Mike is making an effort about the task of the hands to create whip ; still a little bit ellusive because it"s a million dollar tip !

[@Ktc99999-b]

Orange shirt guy didn't get it

[@scottsanders2641]

Who are the 2 idiots that aren't getting or don't agree what this guy is teaching? Brilliance....

[@guitar1950]

I don't know but it looks like they influenced a few more!

[@m3toz4]

money at 1:23

[@johnoxley1946]

another one with no sound

[@chrisb.4496]

No fk,s given showing up to a lesson in flip flops. Rich for sure live in a different world...
