[@taylorwesleygreen197]

I have literally never commented on a KZbin video.....Like ever.... I came across this by chance and half way through I was like this could work. I spent so much time trying to stay center that my golf swing stopped looking like a dance move and more like a really really bad robot. The minute he said stop worry about the sway I pushed pause grabbed my clubs and headed to the driving range. The results were unbelievable. I got my dance moves back and power and compression that I must have been styfeling trying to force myself to stay center at all times. No more slice. Just like that. Wish I was being dramatic but it's the truth. I even went dramatic and pretended I was reaching for the road on the back swing and trying to touch my chest to my right thigh. Still worked. Only been playing for about 6 years so this revelation is amazing. And I am going to buy the prosendr.

[@dementus420]

You broke the comment ice. Excellent. I enjoy commenting on smaller channels because you have a better chance of the creator actually talking back to you. Glad you had some good results.

[@Orthoshooter]

Great points! I’m with you. I had not taken a video of my swing in several months…despite playing some OK golf I was horrified to see that I had removed all movement and athleticism from my swing. Golf is an amazing game! I can’t wait to work on these principles!! Cheers.

[@timothychee759]

You have no idea how much I needed this video, thank you. I watched this and all my lessons over the past 2 years clicked. I was shooting anywhere from 15-27 over. After watching the video and trying to ingrain the swing for a week (yes it’s going to take much longer) I have found something I’ve never had. Confidence in my misses. 2 games ago 12 over. My game today was 9 over. Dispersion was noticeably tighter and I had so much confidence in my swing. All thanks to this! 🙏🙏🙏

[@dougmael]

I was a baseball player from age 8 through age 36, including two years of professional baseball and several years playing semi-pro ball. Sean’s observation regarding pitchers (and quarterbacks) vs. hitters is absolutely spot-on ! I was a very good hitter in baseball, but I brought my baseball swing to golf when I began playing at the very end of my baseball career. I have always been able to hit the golf ball a long way, but I have rarely known where it was going. My tendency to pull the baseball to left field as a right-handed hitter has followed me to the game of golf, and when I have attempted to overcome this, I typically hit a weak block high and to the right because I leave the face of the club open and often decelerate before I get to contact.

[@Geep1778]

Try bowing your wrist at last second in transition. That will take care of face so you know it’s square. Work backwards by seeing how different foot placements equate to ball flights and contact. Which way feels the most balanced and powerful for you. Then find 75% of your max swing speed and hit shots like that until you get the feel for your swing

[@joannaespley6035]

The best explanations I have heard about the golfswing - much easier to understand.

[@BillyDee159]

I was with Ford motor company and Rick Smith was representing Ford. This was 30 years ago. He gave myself and three of my buddies a four hour lesson. For the first 15 minutes he had us hitting balls and he’s just scribbling notes about all of us. He then set us down and told each of us in front of the others what we’re doing wrong And the two things that he was going to do to fix it. His analysis of my buddies who I played with for years was amazing and the fixes were different for all of us, and we all walked away from the four hour lesson playing, the best golf we’ve ever played.

[@Belbivdevoe]

Show us on the doll where he touched you

[@mattbakergolf]

Great lesson 🙌🙌 my favourite phrase was near the end when he mentions he would stick with that drill for two years. Most amateur golfers think they’ve mastered a drill after two shots. It takes time and dedication. Bravo guys.

You know what else is fabulous? The Diddy party shun, shoulda been there

[@ngócylvienguyen]

Hi

[@changemymind8692]

I learned this by accident not long ago. It basically cured my problem of topping or hitting the ball thin. And the great thing about going really wide back in the backswing is it makes ball striking almost effortless.

[@chrismadden6047]

I started this recently as I am working on release and found that 9 to 3 was giving me as much distance and better follow through than my full regular swing

[@tjs4759]

Seriously, I was not going to watch all that, but I'm glad I did. I've never heard Sean really speak about his swing philosophy before, but I really enjoyed how he broke everything down to basically biomechanics and just how the body moves. Awesome video guys!

[@geoffredrup9616]

Great video, chaps, I could have listened to Sean for hours. Before I played yesterday I said to a mate that I know when I am going to hit a good shot when I get my takeaway nice and wide. I still don't hit enough of them, but this lesson has confirmed my instinct was correct and it is all I will work on now. When I get this right, I don't have to think about anything else on the downswing.

[@meandmygolf.]

Glad you enjoyed it. The back swing is such a key part and it's awesome to listen to someone as experienced as Sean.

[@pmportella]

i tend to have 1 month off golf during the winter because it sucks over here, with snow etc, and when i get back i tyry and only remember 2 thoughts on my swing which really works for me. i tend to play my best golf then.

[@stepyourgameupplaya9360]

Guys, I have to tell you that after watching this video and working on the same movements myself after just one range session, I am striking the ball better than I ever have. I am a 5 handicap and have been playing seriously for about 6 years now. The best thing is that I can finally strike my long irons exactly the way I want to. I typically really struggle to square the face with my 4-iron and 2-driving iron. Yesterday I flushed both of them every time. Thank you so much for putting out this video. Cheers.

[@nparekh1111]

This is the best KZbin golf lesson I think I’ve ever watched. Ever

[@timwalker952]

Thanks so much guys. This was FANTASTIC. Some really great concepts and just what I needed. Reinforced a lot of stuff im working on as part of new golf lessons im getting from my local pro. Can't wait to get to the range👍😁

[@sliver8682]

I've always had the thought of not allowing my upper body to move laterally, fearing the dreaded "sway". But trying this with some swings in my living room of the thought of getting my chest over my rear thigh frees me up so much. It's easier and more natural to get my pressure over to the lead side. Excited to get to the range/simulator and try this out.

[@derekunderwood3356]

Get ready! This was me until a couple weeks ago. You are about to discover some effortless new power! And feel more like an athlete.

[@rufussthoo4083]

Same here @silver8682, and ended up extending at the top of the backswing, and with a sore lower back ...

[@bobbys4327]

It is more athletic as you can use the ground under your right leg to push off from. When Tiger was just coming back he told the interviewer his short game is good but longer shots like driver he was not getting distance. He said he couldn't get enough speed because of his right leg.....he couldn't get off his right side fast enough.

[@meandmygolf.]

Really enjoyed having this lesson guys and have already put some time in practicing which feels good. Let us know if you enjoyed this and if we should do more of these style videos showcasing other great coaches.👇

[@Not.Satoshi]

The video was enjoyable. 👍 I have been drilling that 9-3/10-2 for about a year now. My biggest gains have come from those small swings. I would like to see more videos with some other coaches. Thank you and cheers!

[@yadda333]

Pretty uncomfortable beginning, especially when he was like, "Yeah, so what the eff do you want to improve on?" Of course, your whole "compression with irons" answer was effing gold--dude knew right then that he was going to have to break out the gadgets!

[@RyanMetcalfePGA]

Sean makes some excellent points in this video. And you can see he has evolved himself as an instructor from the Tiger woods era. Top content

[@77bovi]

1 of the most honest title descriptions. Wisdom bombs by Sean. Glad he's been able to package all that vast knowledge into something we can understand and apply and generous to share it here. Personally believe golf instruction will truly start to benefit people when we find out the different match ups and how to work in those changes. Bent left arm at impact is an anomaly and I doubt for most but I get Sean's point. Appreciate this so much guys!

[@davidmeeks7449]

Might be the best lesson I’ve seen for a better player. I love the way Sean Foley is not afraid to challenge conventional teaching. The whole “stay centered” mantra is hard to do and actually makes me steep and over the top. This move feels powerful and athletic. Tremendous lesson.

[@scottcline3018]

Bot for sure

[@johneden3810]

That was so good. In the past I’ve had lessons where you come away a bit confused, but that was explained so simply. Great video guys 👌

[@pianomanjc3]

This was refreshingly realistic. Too many golf videos come across as ‘instantly add 40 yards to your drive’ or ‘banish that slice in 10 shots’! This was a reminder that real improvement only comes from learning the RIGHT moves and grinding until they’re instinctive…which may take months or years!! Great video!

[@ktomjr1]

Great video. I find that when I focus on feeling like my hands are as low as possible going into and through impact it forces me to be wide throughout the swing without thinking about it too much. Doing the L Drill, or even what I might call a 3/4 L Drill, where I really focus on my hands being as low feeling as possible into/through the ball. To me, it creates a better sense of feeling and repeating the low point of my swing in a most controlled manner. Then just add little bits of more backswing once you get in a good grove. If you start losing the grove start taking little bits off the backswing until you get back in a groove of good contact.

[@jordannicholson163]

I have been playing for about 5 years now and have struggled with an over the top swing all that time. I've watched so many videos and had multiple lessons and nothing comes close to what I've learnt from this video. I'm currently off 9.9 but I'm held back by my distance off the tee. I went to the range tonight, inspired by this and did these drills. I have added 15 yards to my irons and I'm creaming my 3 wood 260. The driver.... Still not great but everything else you have helped me hit a draw for the first time ever. Really looking forward to getting on the course next weekend. Thank you for such a great video lesson

[@trx430]

Please make that happen. It's still the only club I am unable to hit after 2 decades of play. I strictly use a driving iron now.

[@dennisfletcher7122]

I love the shattering of longtime conventional swing wisdom. Sean has zero fear of doing so. “Have a mind that is open to everything, and attached to nothing” one of my faves

[@davida.4933]

Rather extension and more of a lateral swing has been pretty much conventional for many decades. You've got it entirely backwards. And fyi Sean was teaching a much tighter rotational swing some years ago...

[@tonalambiguity3345]

That would seem like a good thing except it can lead to throwing away strong knowledge that has been developed and refined over a long period of time by many different people. Yes, be open minded and ready to critically analyse BUT also be prepared to acknowledge things that already exist for good reason. The thing is, people are highly motivated to be unique and make a name for themselves. Tearing down traditions in favour of your own concepts is the most obvious way to do this. So we must be skeptical of people that are trying to mess with tradition.

This is one of the best youtube golf videos i have seen for a while.

[@kevinshoemaker5466]

Really good to see Sean Foley’s growth as a coach! In using kettle bells, I have found it important to use an underhand grip in order to let the shoulders and arms swing and fold more naturally. I first heard the walking motion described in old Mike Austin - Mike Dunaway videos, and demonstrated by some of the long swing guys like Kyle Berkshire. Dr. Kwan’s teaches this using kettle bells and the “shurn rope” - (shift turn - shift turn). I am recovering from spinal decompression surgery (lots of leg nerve damage from knees thru feet that is taking longer than I had hoped to simmer down), and have spent the better part of the year therefore working on the 9-3 drills, as well as doing a lot of L spine stabilization and T spine stretching with my PT. The crispness of the contact on irons is addicting… cannot wait to take it to 10-4! Nice video all around and thanks to the Me and My Golf Guys!

[@duncanbush453]

Wow what a great video. Been using the prosender for 3 months and it's definitely helping me compress the ball without being steep. The mechanics are fascinating.

[@solomva]

I’m getting the ProSendr for XMAS. What are the keys to progressing with it based on your 3 mos. experience? Would love to get your perspective. Thx.

[@duncanbush453]

@@solomva strap it on and hit balls. Work up from half swings to 3/4 to full. Rehearse right arm only swings setting your right hand into the cradle and holding it in to a finish. Surprising how much set there is in the wrists. You'll soon feel the width - I really feel it on my follow through. I've focussed on the cradle and not used the ball so much - but I do try to "wring the towel" to get that forearms together feel. Santa's gonna make you happy this year!!

[@RobertCennon]

I just played with a guy last week on the stadium course who had one of these. He was doing the pause drills and was hitting it really well from the blacks. He pulled out the wrist brace and rubber ball and was talking about the 51degree angle but seeing this video and the explanations put it all together. Well done, thanks again for this video!

I’m a new player just starting my third year and I’ve been baffled in lessons and left feeling like I should of been doing this by the manual rather than being taught or adjusted for my own abilities. The physics of this really stands out to me and I’m looking forward to playing a round tomorrow morning using this no matter the score I’m going to stick with it and from then embrace it on the range

[@3putt548]

Wish I could say differently but have never had much success with Foley’s lessons including this one. I’m hitting a foot behind the ball trying to incorporate this in my swing. Staying centered, I’m able to get much cleaner contact and control the club face better. Granted I’m a senior golfer so I don’t have the flexibility I once had. Still when I was younger, I wasn’t able to relate to his teaching methods. To each his own!

[@A-FrameWedge]

Not saying you are wrong, but sometimes people expect immediate success, and depending on how different it is many times you will hit it much worse before you get better, but if you practice it at home every day and hit balls at least 2 or 3 times a week, if you are still hitting worse after a month or so, then it might not be for you.

[@3putt548]

@@A-FrameWedge Noted and I agree. Many times actually most times, you have to take a step or two back before you go forward. You also can’t go full bore either. You have to start with half swings or even less to ingrain all the subtleties of a swing change. It can easily take months.

[@steve2299]

@@3putt548 I found that merely rotating my head right to the point where my left eye is pointing down instead of my nose before the swing worked wonders.

[@3putt548]

@@steve2299 Thanks I will give it a go, the next time I’m on the range. It’s amazing that sometimes a small change can work wonders. I’ve found this so true making tweaks with the golf grip alone.

[@steve2299]

@@3putt548 It totally made sense after trying it with or w/o a club in your hand. If you try to keep your nose 90 degrees to the ground, and turn your body away, it creates unnecessary strain in your neck, which in turn makes you instinctively move your head. Just one less thing to concentrate on during the swing.

[@natedanaste]

This is legit! I just watched this and went outside and hit and it’s the cleanest contact and the most I’ve felt the ball compress in a long time! Wow! Fantastic drill!

[@TeddyCavachon]

Back a dozen plus years ago I decided to retool my swing by following Hogan’s Five Lessons book. He uses 18 pages to describe how to grip the club properly. What I realized after following his advice was that the critical variable for controlling the club path was the position of the trail hand on the grip, not how many knuckles showed on the lead hand. That just controls how much the trail hand wraps up over the top of the handle. Why is trail hand wrapping over the top a key variable? Because how it will control how much counter-torque the trail hand can apply on the lead one to prevent pronation of lead hand in the takeaway and also influences how and when in the backswing and downswing the trail arm folds elbow down and externally rotates which is what creates the LEVERAGE in the trail arm necessary to control the lead arm and club head mass. The source of my swing problems for the previous twenty years had been my practice of laying the club ‘dead’ on the ground when gripping it. One day out of frustration I put the club in just my lead hand and flipped it forward at the target forcing my lead arm into maxed-out external rotation and palm-up supination THEN placed my right hand on top in an interlaced grip. When I lowered the club my forearms felt like twisted ropes because of the way lowering the club caused the radius and ulna bones in the forearms rotate and stretch the muscles in the arms. It then hit the best shot in my twenty+ years of playing up to that point and continued to use that technique for establishing my grip. Analyzing what was happening I realized by maxing out rotation of the lead arm externally and in supination causes the trail arm to max out on the other direction when locking the hands together with the grip and then after the club was flipped 90° and lowered both arms were in the middle of the range of supination / pronation with inward ( ) counter-torque and that pre-setting of torque is what was forcing my trail wrist to max out in extension much sooner and literally forcing my trail elbow to fold down earlier in the backswing which created the ideal external rotation and “server lifting a tray” action which sets up the action of the club whipping up and forward around the hands after extending back straight as far as it can go. I realized that the illustration of hands wringing towel in Hogan’s book is wrong! The necessary action between the forearms isn’t rotation in opposite directions as when wringing a towel but the action of holding a branch in both hands and trying to bend it downward U until it breaks \ / with both arms rotating inward. Some time later I came across a video by Martin Hall using a grip technique he calls EDPU - Elbows Down - Palms UP in which the club shaft is held vertically with elbows bent 90° and tucked into sides when gripped and lowered. It does exactly the same thing as my flip-it-forward-to-grip-it technique: Position both arms in the middle of their range of supination / pronation with inward counter-torque which forces the trail wrist in extension and trail arm into external rotation very consistently resulting in very consistent control of hands and club head path on the way up, back down and through the finish extension and hinging of the lead arm which becomes the mirror image of the backswing folding of the trail arm. It is all due to: 1) getting the trail hand positioned correctly, and 2) creating counter-rotational torque in the arms when lowering the club to address, with; 3) both arms winding up in the middle of their range of pronation / supination at address and again at impact.

I find the comments about walking/swinging very interesting because I'll do this tempo/rhythm/timing drill where I'll literally do these walking swings. I start at a modified address with my feet together, take my first slightly forward with my rear foot and swing back, let the club set at the top, step slightly forward with my front foot and swing down, then go back to the rear foot step, repeat. It felt so good and I couldn't believe how I could be moving around as much as I was yet sweeping the grass in such a flush/controlled manner.

I do have back issues, bulge, so I have to do the neutral ulnar slap, and it feels great. Yeah staying centered is a great theory until you calculate the club is pulling on you at 100 lbs near impact, timing and hand position to balance all those neutons and lbs of force, leaves me with a nice feeling swing. Score is another issue. Great video.

[@mikemoodie]

I think the key for us weekend warriors is the right arm width. The Five Fundamentals may have inadvertently spawned a generation of narrow (and consequently steep) swings. Keep it simple - thanks Sean!

[@JasonMH69]

What I learned years ago is just look at a target in front of the ball, imaginary power point, palm facing target is a fade move, Ben Hogan made that move to fight his hook, so if you are a naturally hook the ball that would be good, but more releasing the subvertical like were doing at 19:58 will make you hit it straighter. I would look at a point 45 degrees in front of me and the ball and watch where my toe of driver goes after the ball. Changing where your club goes can shape your shots. Changes impact position of your club too. You can fix hooks and slices just by moving your power point. Alot of golfers don't know this. I used to slice the ball i just move my power point 3inches right and I fixed it. For hooks you move it left for right handers That was enough to change my impact position but ball position in your stance for irons was super important i would make sure the ball was behind my divot i would always look for my bottom point where my club would take divot during practice swings, and place ball behind that. Once you realize the ball is just getting in the way, you will be shooting in the 60s no problem. I watched your video i enjoyed it . End of rant lol

[@OMG-2]

Hey Geezer… should have pulled that pin on #4 and you would have been 1 under! I read somewhere that some of those sand mound greens were actually treated with motor oil and were black in color.

Every time I think my short game is getting better I watch one of your videos and discover how much work I still have To do. Geezer Tony… king of the up and down.

Love having Sean Foley. He has helped me a ton. He talks a lot about the center of mass staying behind the hand path (net force). He has said getting the center of mass in line with the net force too quickly can be a problem. I think I know what it means, but not totally. Is being in line with the net force too quickly when the water skier is right behind the boat within the wake? Or is being in line with the net force too quickly when the water skier is thrown out of the wake and is traveling even with the boat (outside the wake)?

[@martinwall1969]

I've just started following you guys and all your videos resonate with me alot, look forward to watching more

[@shanecroftpodcast]

This was really, really great content. I know Sean personally (you filmed at our home club) and he is just incredible. He has shared so much golf knowledge with my son over the years (just being a nice guy - not his coach). I’m so glad you had him on so other people can see the work he’s doing

hi

[@erinpackard9768]

Thanks for showing the drill with the ProSENDR Ball. I tried to use that ball when I first got my ProSENDR but it was too awkward and I was ready to just let the dog play with it. Saved this video for future training over these Winter months.

[@meandmygolf.]

It looks simple but it wasn't easy. Took all my focus!

[@erinpackard9768]

@@meandmygolf. your facial expression at the 20:35 ish mark said it all. I did try to do that yesterday and I think I need to stretch out prior to trying it the next time. It's no joke tough to do!

[@rowdyroddy519]

I used to practice hitting balls with a 4 iron left arm only... but I added having my right hand about an inch off the club from where it should be. This increased the difficulty, I feel, as just hanging the right arm doesn't activate all the muscles you would normally be using, and turning was easier. I hit 4 irons like that, into a net, for months one winter. You'll learn a lot about proper club manipulation and control, and you will gain a lot of strength in your left forearm and wrist after doing that drill for a few months Left arm only drill is great to learn the proper takeaway as well.

[@rowdyroddy519]

This is a great lesson. Keeping hands out in front of you... and elbows out in front of you, creating width to the top. You will feel you are pointing your elbows 180* away from the target... and you will feel your hands are as far away from your right ear as possible. Then the downswing.. adding the keeping the right heel down until impact. Do this, and you'll be flushing it solid.

[@stevec2435]

Great content lads really enjoyed this. Would love to see a few updates and how you get on with the drills

[@meandmygolf.]

Thanks Steve. Had one really solid practice session so far. Feels good but definitely wasn't easy. Lots of focus needed to create that new feeling. Will definitely update you.

[@MichaelOrr1984]

James Heard is a golf pro who teaches at Tee Box, London and taught me these very concepts a few years ago. So I recommend him.

[@j.p.montpellier3834]

Great lesson and video Gents ! Please ask him about George Knudson.... Knudson said "The head has no function in the golf swing. ...it simply goes where the body takes it.. 👍💯🇨🇦

[@bobfisher9452]

Reminds me of a Steve Stricker golf swing. Great information here. Thanks!

[@mikemoodie]

I think all us amateurs would be better off trying to swing like Steve S.

[@adheal9530]

Great video, watched it at least 4 or 5 times then took it to the range. I was hitting my 9 iron further with the 9-3 oclock swing than my old full 7 iron swing! Best iron strikes ive ever hit, thanks 👍

[@scottcline3018]

Holy stack and tilt bot. All these comments must be FoolE himself and different screen names. Mighty Mouse, stop commenting on your own videos. It's over Mighty Mouse, give up. How many brain operations have you had and where have you been these last 5 years. It's obvious Mighty Mouse the operations are showing... You will continue to InBareAss yourself with everything you do, I promise. Hoodies are not Professional attire Mighty Mouse. Which muni are you teaching at now? Seems like you have been MIA, who do you actually teach? What brought you out of hiding? Terrible look for such a Proud PGA class A member. Any respectable Club would tell you that you need to change your attire or gtf off the course. At least you lost your purse and your baby boy blue programmed outfits...

[@longgamegolffitness85]

This is such a good video with the Prosendr. Some of the tutorials are hard to link to a complete movement

[@swazinator]

@meandmygolf I enjoined watching my only question is from the pause position what enstart the downswing. thank you very much

[@micah6615]

I absolutely Love the way Sean Foley Explains the swing this is GOLD for myself being a Golf Nerd.

[@vicpnut1]

Like the sand bag metaphor..and he quickly mentions throwing a “kettle bell?” …I don’t know what that is but picturing letting the weight pushing and pulling the arms through instead of wrapping arms around body on purpose ..that seems like a great exercise to instill good motion….I don’t know if its worth doing without a pro making sure ya did it correctly ..but it drives home more width , to me

[@Freeman_Actual]

Emil Wesser taught me this lesson when I was 21... good stuff!

[@mick19421]

Fascinating to watch top class instruction to a Professional Golfer. Eye opening.

[@driesanalog4187]

31:50 - that's my favorite up, turn, stretch, hit.

[@txterbug]

over the shoulder drill REALLY helps to know what a good position at the top feels like.

[@BobSimmons-y6i]

As one of the best current 80 yr old golfers on the planet I agree with you

[@douglastaylor43]

This was one of the best lessons on KZbin

[@Bigdawg2824]

Great job! This is perfect content. You guys are one of the Godfathers of KZbin Golf.

[@meandmygolf.]

Glad you enjoyed it. It was fun to be on the receiving end for a change.

[@beatricezanchi548]

Great Instruction ,thank you.I don’t understand the English talk of the guy with the short trousers because he speaks very difficult English to understand for Italian golfers 😊

[@noopy24]

I can totally tell that there's some influence in the teaching from Eric Goodman foundation training.... what a great lesson this was !!!

[@douglaskercher6948]

I gave Aaron Baddeley a lesson in Melbourne before he won his 2nd Australian Open. Then he won. Then he went to the US and Leadbetter. Then S&T.

[@Stevenrosswhite]

This is fantastic. Thank you for publishing this!

[@johndunne870]

Enjoyed that. Just wish I was young again so that I would have the time to practice and become a good player.

[@miked1365]

OMG yesterday at the range at the end of my practice session I was trying to reach back like this and was hitting very good shots but thought perhaps I am sliding. Going to keep doing this move! Bonus here is I have a Greg Norman Secret that I bought 30 years ago but was never able to hit full shots with it. Excellent for putting and chipping though. Today I am going to use it but not with my forefinger pinned back. Never thought of using it like Sean has you doing.

[@bobbys4327]

Watch the pros, most all of them finish with their left hip (right hand player) 4-6 inches forward of where they were at address. There are instructors on utube that show this with measurements of the pros.

[@steveperry1344]

this is what i need, the more width with the right arm because i kinda collapse my right arm in the backswing, thnx for the help.

[@butchersrespawn]

I like that Andy knows how good those P7MC irons are. Got em in my bag a few days already. Love em.

[@ivanboesky1520]

[@alanharris3277]

Great video and Mr. Foley is certainly an accomplished coach, at the highest levels. Seemed to me that very early in the video he missed an important question. He confirmed that having a better sense of compressing the ball was at the top of the golfer's mind. Shouldn't the next question have been, why? Mr. Foley also mentioned Moe Norman. I would love to see Mr. Foley do video of where he uses his lifetime of experience to explain the abilities that Moe Norman was able to demonstrate.

[@michaelcerami6772]

Great lesson ! It helped me a lot , I am hitting the straight and long. Fantastic ! Thanks😄
