I’ve been using this idea that you’re sharing now for about a year. It works with every club and keeps the ball in-play and pars are easy to make if your putter is working

[@michaelbittel2618]

This is brilliant. I am one guilty of swinging hard trying to increase swing speed and "pulling it thru". I went out into my simulator and applying the force in the correct direction as you describe and within a few minutes had picked up 3 mph of club speed while the ball direction was better. Have to work to "break the habit" but this is superb!

Golf CIA messed with your video feed a bit. Still great advice.

[@Slainte-Mhath]

There are a few highly distorted sections of this video 2:33-2:47 3:58-4:06 4:52-4:57 can you fix it please. is this where you say what the swing direction is? Is it the Steve Austin 10 to 4 direction or....?

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

I know. I did it on purpose. Sorry, I'm trying to get people to go looking for more information. KZbin no longer promotes me because everyone who watches stops watching youtube and goes and swings a club. So, my clickthrough is basically zero and youtube hates that. I used to have 144k views per day and now it's just ~1000. If I put the video out whole ... it would happen again and actually get worse for my channel. If that makes sense ...

[@Slainte-Mhath]

So for someone who watches the whole video, can link me to the video with it. TBH I think I know and am looking for confirmation. I believe if I turn back without swaying, transition, at which point my hips are around square, my shoulders and torso are still say 45 deg from square I swing On the line of the shoulders and the rotation and release will bring the path to the ball with a squared clubface to the path. (depending on my grip) So is this correct or have I still got it wrong?

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

@@Slainte-Mhath It's all about having the correct intention and it's simply not what everyone thinks. The golf club is a very unique tool like no other we're familiar with. Literally no one knows how to use it. Everyone thinks they do but clearly they don't because it works incredibly well for some and almost refuses to work for others. People say to me all the time, "It looks like you're not even trying." My answer is, Yeah, that's because I'm swinging in a different direction than you are." Most people are mystified by that because they never thought about what direction they should swing. They naturally assumed it was in the direction of the desired ball flight, but it's not and that's what makes a golf club such a unique tool. Also, it's really fun to use once you do understand how it works.

[@thomasfraser9072]

Personally at the transitional part of my backswing/ downswing I use my trail right shoulder connected to my right upper arm to quickly rotate downward/ inward ( never outward/ inward in order to strike down hard on the imaginary ball behind me. This is done in conjunction to using my alternating knees and hip socket to shift my body back and forth ( preventing my body from swaying) as I swing my modern club. I hope you get new viewers to buy your product because what I have seen in the past it was all good. Cheers and good luck. 😊🥂👍

[@johnc7888]

Hey Greg some guys love swing as fast they can but some wanted to swing so can hit it on the sweet spot or path, it is so interesting that what really speed vs hit it on the sweet spot would equal to? How’s about how one should judge on their own to balance between the two.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

You've hit on a concept here that I'm already working on a video about. Basically the golf swing is simply learning how to swing the club as fast as we can and allowing it to crash into the golf ball.

[@tomtays149]

Years ago I learned a ton about club design from the guy who built/ground the clubs for the players of the top iron maker at the time. He did mine. I asked ‘why don’t you include an owners manual with each set?’ His response was that as soon as the golfer misapplied the information they’d blame the maker. Understanding on an intellectual level and applying the same physically are most often far apart. Keep strong on your message and to hell with all the slick production values from crappy teachers.

[@leepetersen4082]

VERY WISE WORDS! great video!

[@stevedriscoll2539]

For me I would hate to have died after having played the game for over 50 years and never to have had an understanding of what the hell produced a good shot, but I almost feel like a thief also (or that the internet is the biggest thief of all time) because you gave me the most precious gift for free (other than the 35 bucks I sent you last year). I can't stay broke for long in my golf swing. If ever I am broke, I am instantly (and as you said "miraculously") fixed as soon as I think of that incredible "holy grail" concept that I witnessed from your video around two years ago. I hope you will somehow, someway get compensated for revealing the "whole ball of wax" to we who work our fingers to the bone and live check to check and don't belong to country clubs (and have broken minds and bodies from decades of painful and merciless labor). Simply saying thanks is woefully lacking as a repayment for what you have done for me.

[@rickherring3392]

So funny I stumbled on this. Im 64 struggled with over the top move my entire life, A chance meeting on the range with a guy 3 weeks ago who told me. "your swinging the wrong way, pick up the club and think of it as a baseball bat. swing hard around you" So in sort order I I started thinking of golf as hitting a baseball right between first and 2nd base. I feel as though the end of the club is a bat and i almost feel as the toe must be pointing straight up (but its not) and you are so right you MUST put on the brakes with the left leg and stop the rotation. I rarely hit more than 200 yard drives, in the last 3 weeks with this method I average 230, and I have hit a 265 yarder on more than 1 occasion. My problem is I stripe my Driver and fairway woods, I have not found a way to translate this to my irons. any thoughts?

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Yes! You're almost there. You're where many better golfers are, you've almost go it but it's still just a feeling. You just can't quite put your finger on what exactly is the magic move. Many good golfers aren't really sure of how or why their swing works when it does but they love when it does. Once you learn what exactly is is you need to do and how and why the golf club works the way it does it all becomes incredibly easy. This is what my website is all about. Irons, fairway woods, driver ... they all work the exactly the same when you know how to use them properly. Also, you should be hitting it 265+ on average. I'm 68 and still driving greens ~290 - 300. Once you know how the club works and you can depend on it you can really start swinging for the fences! It's so easy that once you learn it you can't believe you didn't figure it out for yourself.

[@thegolfguy68]

I have been a fan, believer, cult member of yours for many years. I wish I could effectively express myself. The premise of understanding the intended direction of force (my words) is incredible. Once you see it and feel it you can’t un see it.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Ain't that the truth! Then you think back, "... how could I have ever thought of it any other way?" And it's so easy once you get it. Too easy really and that's why I called it the Holy Grail of Golf® I played with a guy the other day and he was kinda angry after watching me drive. He muttered, "It's like he's not even trying ..." I hear that from a lot of people and I tell them, "I'm just using the club differently than you are."

[@johnnybravo9087]

Hi G, question: when you direct your swing toward the target line, what point do you intend to stop applying force to the club? Is it about shaft horizontal?

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

You don't. You simply lose the ability to do so. I'm making a video about this too. When the club reaches a certain point it's starts moving faster than you could add force so from that point on you're just holding on and going for a ride. It's like trying to push a car down a steep slope if the car is already going faster than you can run, you can't push it.

[@BMG5420]

I've watched your channel in the past and I like(d) it. I don't know how KZbin works but I can give you my opinion. Whatever your reasoning for putting in those glitches, it is a terrible idea. My instant and very strong reaction was to switch off. If I hadn't already looked at the comments, I'd have switched off immediately If you are getting views, do some research on how to get more views. There's just as much KZbin content on that as there is on golf My thoughts are that if you give a lot away for free then you will be successful. To get people to the point of revealing the critical information, then obscuring it will only achieve one thing, which is to lose viewers I however have subscribed because I see that you are try to get a good message out. I suggest you repost this video without the glitches

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

@dfg8851 Thank you for taking the time to comment. I wasn't sure about the glitches but I thought they were kinda funny. Maybe everyone doesn't have the same kind of luck I do, where things like that will happen exactly over the good parts. I just need to do something to improve my clickthrough rate. Everyone who watches my channel goes out and swings a club and youtube hates me for that and won't promote my channel any more. I went from 144k views per day down to 1500.

[@AaaBbb-rs9jz]

The content does not deliver what the title says. Every time it almost does, the picture and sound are garbled. Appreciate if you could supply a link to the missing info or unscramble it somehow.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Ok, I get it. I did that on purpose to make people go looking for more. I used to have 144k views per day on youtube but because my content is easily understandable and compelling people watch and then immediately go out and try it. So youtube records that as "clickthrough" and mine is nearly zero so they no longer promote my channel. Every time someone watches my channel they stop watching youtube. What I'm advocating isn't rubbish. I'm explaining and teaching exactly how the golf club works and how to use it properly. It's incredibly simple and amazingly effective which is why I called it the Holy Grail of Golf®. I'm not a rich man but I have a million dollar idea and I'm doing the best I can to get it out to people and make a living too.

[@wildessex8615]

Mate... don't fight the system. Embrace it. I'm not endorsing the KZbin algorithms, but life is more about "groups" than "grails". Your channel IS one of the best. But reference and push your peeps towards other channels. "I like how *** does this. have a look at them." "I think XX has it wrong, this is why. Don't take my word, have a look at what they say and then try both etc. etc. etc.." It's not rocket science. TBh it's just sharing the love, telling us what other guys are getting right and you can't do any better... and sometimes... challenging and taking on those same big boys who are great but dont always get it right: Zengolf, Milo, BeBetterGolf, Chris Ryan, Clements, Dr Kwon, Russell Heritage. etc. etc.. Good luck, mate. I'm very grateful for all your help. xx

I hear you and I wish I could but there’s only two or three instructors that I agree with - Martin Ayres, Dan Martin and … I can’t think of the other at the moment. Literally everyone is attempting to teach golf backward - by examining and copying the results they expect to produce the cause and it’s futile and ridiculous. It’s like saying Djokovic has a 120 mph serve so to be better at tennis just do that and as we all know, it just doesn’t work that way.

[@CasiBelle73]

The pros keep the truth hidden as well because if everyone found out how simple it is, they wouldn’t be very special to a degree. Somehow they figured it out from good instructors who knew how to swing the instrument directionally correct, the rest of their skill was developed with time and application and then tested in battle on the course.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Good point. I'm working on a video about this topic as well. I don't think even the pros know what they're actually doing - they only know how to do it. Which is why they practice so often. To them it's just a feeling and that feeling can change or disappear at any moment. It happened to me years ago. I was a +1.3 and suddenly one day I got the shanks. After shanking 5 or 6 or more shots in a row I suddenly realized I had been playing so well for so long that I had no idea what it was that I was actually doing. It vanished in an instant and I had no idea how to fix it. I wanted to cry. I'd been playing for 20 years and suddenly I couldn't hit a ball. I say this because I've heard pros like Ian Baker Finch say he lost his swing and that's why he retired. That tells me that even the pros don't actually truly know what they are doing - they only know how to do it. Oddly, this is one of the things that makes golf so compelling. When we play well we aren't sure why and the same is true when you play badly. Golf is like a slot machine that you never know when it's going to pay off or why.

[@CasiBelle73]

@@HolyGrailOfGolf that makes a lot of sense. That’s actually really what we’re seeing in some of the top golfers today who are off track relative to their past success (Ricky, Rory, Jordan etc….). I have been searching for a swing for 4 years and tried your swing direction and it worked and then I started seeing the same pattern in the pros wondering do that actually know what direction their swinging or is it just grooved patterns from their youth. Golf instruction is not good at all today and that’s why I’m glad you simplified the right concepts. Truly glad I found your content.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

@@CasiBelle73 I know it's a bold claim but I truly believe I will change golf instruction in the future. Unless of course this information has been purposely suppressed for decades. I'm working on a book and several other things. I don't know if I'll get the credit when it does happen but I'm already seeing some of my methods being advocated by several other teachers and several instructors have told me they teach the Holy Grail of Golf® swing. Finally, yes, I know what you're saying about watching the pros. Once you know what to look for you can see it almost any good swing. Tommy Fleetwood and Juaquin Neimann do it so well.

The reality is golf is extremely difficult to teach, only thing an instructor does is show your talent level

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Talent has little to do with it. How would you explain that every child who knows nothing about physics or golf can pick up a club and figure it out in 15 minutes? Are they all talented? No, children don't have a superficial knowledge about how the golf club works like adults do. If you're using the club properly it will refuse to work properly. It's simple physics.

[@njd9143]

@@HolyGrailOfGolf you contradicted yourself, you said kids know nothing about the golf swing yet still progress quickly? That's called talent. If you didn't have anything to sell to people, you would agree with me.

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

​@@njd9143 ​ I think we agree, actually. It's kinda silly to say or assume that children are more talented than adults. We were all children once. We didn't lose our talent but we, adults I mean, have been corrupted by something we're completely unaware of called "superficial knowledge." It's an unconscious belief that you understand something that in reality you do not. (I'm working on a video about this.) Anyway, the "superficial knowledge" is unconscious so it's deep seated and never questioned. That SK (let's call it) is the belief that you fully know and understand how the golf club works. So adults apply that SK and to their chagrin it doesn't work, so they often blame the club as being faulty or malfunctioning rather than questioning their SK. Adults don't even know they have SK so they never examine or question it. I always find it fun to watch the look on someone's face when I ask them, "what direction do you swing?" It's like a short circuit in their brain. It's something they've never thought about before but they have a firm belief, or an SK, but now, because I've asked that question, they suddenly don't want to give their honest answer and struggle to think of what might be the correct answer and when they can't come up with one they revert to their honest answer which is, "that way ... toward the target." So my point is that SK is ruining most everyone's swing before they ever start, whereas children don't have SK so they get great results quickly. Thanks for the comment. Intelligent questions and debate like this helps me figure out the best ways to explain this stuff.
