Myths of Golf 58 - Compress the ball into the turf to produce back spin.

[@Ulster2]

The most remarkable thing in this video was your students head position at impact. Looking down the fairway. The former ladies and gents number ones (Anika and Duval) played golf like that. You might consider doing a video on that and explaining how they hit the ball so well whilst looking down the fairway. Thanks

Hi Ulster, Have you seen Myhs of Golf 1 & 2? Kind regards, Peter

Thank you for your comment. If the world's top male & female golfers look at the target before impact it cannot be incorrect. One of my pupils had a gross 65 @ Woking Golf Club hitting every fairway & every green. Take a look at Teaching Video 46. Kind regards, Peter.

Great video Peter, I believe most weekend players have no clue about this and some times I wonder how many of the utuber instructors know this too.

Hi Wally, Compress the ball into the turf - not one slow-motion video of the ball @ impact supports this. Iron of a tee peg?? Shots out of sand ?? Why do golfers not just look at what really happens? Kind regards Peter.

@@peterthompsongolfuk I don't know, you have more access to prof golfers, maybe ask a few of them and see what they say. I would be interested to hear that. It's like Tiger said to Scottie Scheffler , when my swing is on I don't take divots, and I don't think Jack took divots.

Great videos Peter

Thank you Gerry, So much golf instruction should be so simple if only golfers looked at what really happens. How can the ball be compressed onto the turf? There are so many slow-motion videos of the impact of all of the clubs to show what really happens. Kind regards Peter.

Hey Peter - I tend to take the club on the outside and re-route. Oddly enough ball striking is the biggest strength of my game. But its not sexy, and im trying to have a more aesthetic swing. Im on the brink of single digit HC but im willing to take a step back and make changes. My takeaway has plagued me forever. currently working on a hands-in club-out type of takeaway. Which of your videos do you recommend i watch?

Hello, I would initially look at Myths of Golf 5 & then Teaching Videos 9,10,11 & 12. Let me know if they help. Kind regards Per.
