Sending love your way! You have no idea how much you've helped my game with your no-nonsense straight forward instruction. The vertical line was a game changer. Seriously! Thank you!

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Mike, post of the week right here! Appreciate the kind words. We have found that many coaches have made golf too complicated, we prefer the KISS method. :) The Vertical Line Swing is changing games....stay tuned for our Vertical Line Swing short game series....game changer!

[@gregboggs4721]

Love your channel, as a senior golfer the vertical line swing helps me keep things simple.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Greg, awesome to hear!! Thanks for the kind words. We have some great new coaching experiences coming...exciting!

[@mythicalpinguin270]

Thank you so much for the tips, it really helped my swing and I'm hitting way better than before

Awesome! Appreciate you watching and posting. Hope you subscribed....what other topics would you like to see us cover?

One thing i have found is that the VLS works equally well for fade and draw alike! Club square to target, follow feet line (left fade or right draw), easy swing up and down, nice soft fade and draw without any pain!!! Work in progress but VLS rocks this 53 year old

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Let's go...the VLS is working!

[@steveregotti8542]

Hey great teaching!!!! Thanks again

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Appreciate that Steve. What part did you find the most helpful?

[@steveregotti8542]

@@USGOLFTVshow I’ve always struggled with getting the club slightly inside because my left wrist was moving sideways-- lately I’ve been trying to keep the club outside my hands and not let my wrist move sideways-- hands in club out as they say??? Do you do online video lessons???

[@robertmendoza3689]

Very much enjoy your videos. To focus on us “experience golfers “. What I would like to see is a video on the left side of my body on the down swing and at impact, for right handed golfer. The weight distribution, the foot location and movement, the knee and hip. I love to get that snap or whip of the club. A drill would really be awesome..

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Robert, thanks for posting. We will be sure to add this to our content list. In the short term, take a look at this kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKnJlKWgabqKmtk

[@claudevoyer7124]

Great video again. Do you recommend this for the driver also?

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Yes, this can be applied to all clubs in your bag.

Great tip. I love the driver tip. Really helpful me.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Awesome!

Todd, Thank you for the "Vertical Line" as an experienced golfer it has helped me a lot. Do you like putting all golf club handles being put at your belt buckle?

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Thanks for posting.....the belt buckle is a good guideline for most all club other then wedges. With a wedge we like to see the handle slightly forward.

[@willjohnson3832]

Thank you sir being a vet with a back issue the vertical line swing and opening up a bit has helped me a lot. Still having issues with the irons though being former pro basketball player is not helping with golf lol

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Will, thank you for your service! You and your fellow service men and women are the real hero's here! Great to her VLS is helping your game....maybe you can teach us a few moves on the b-ball court!

[@willjohnson3832]

@@USGOLFTVshow Thank you for the support we always appreciate it. I can teach you some things on the court and you can help me with my irons bet?

[@lifesaver3499]

Hi Todd...could you post a lesson where you compare a straight vs bent left arm in the backswing with a trackman? I was wondering if a bent left arm would allow a senior to get his hands higher in the backswing for increased distance and perhaps accuracy. I think Speith bends his arm(s).

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Will pass forward to the content team...thanks for the idea. Are you a subscriber?

How to hit high fairway woods &/OR hybrids to make sure you clear water My total distance for my 5 hybrid is 125 yards loft 24* & 130 yards for my 9 wood with loft 23* I have trouble clearing the pond & the back of the green has many trees. If I go long it is a very difficult shot to get back onto the green. Thank you for all your excellent advice.. The par 3 is 114 yards or 130 yards.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

@@alangoudie2299 you're in luck, we've got a couple videos currently in production on fairway woods and hybrids, so stay tuned! (Spoiler alert: Friday's video will help you get your fairway woods in the air after watching it 👍)

Thank you I will be keen to look & learn.@@USGOLFTVshow

[@robertaro9099]

I have eliminated the one piece takeaway, and am now setting my wrists right off the ball. This early wrist set helps me to get the club on plane more easily. What are your thoughts on a early wrist set? Thank you.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Early wrist set is ok as long as you still have good tempo and rhythm to your swing

[@todddipner4369]

Thanks for the video tip! At what point does the wrist start to hinge the club during the takeaway? Thanks!

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Good question, we find that for most of our players it begin to happen when the clubhead starts to reach waist high. Now this can vary slightly from player to player... but this is a good guideline. Thanks for posting...

[@dennisdermann4124]

Does this tip work for hybrids and woods?

[@colinofree1658]

So is the circle there just for the 3 wiggles? Because every time you actually hit the ball your club head was actually under the circle.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Great question. The circles are for a visual and to show the concepts. Thanks for asking. 👊

[@georgehurwitz8136]

I purchased the Vertical Line Video, but I notice in most of your other videos, that you play irons more forward than you recommend if the VLS. Is this true?

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Good question, we like the ball to be positioned between the buttons and logo on your golf shirt. This is a good general guideline. Here is a good video to watch kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpa6cnmlZcSEnMU

[@kenkohl2181]

Hmmm, swinging the handle, not the clubhead is a great tip, thanks.

your club head was in the circle perfectly on the 3 practice strokes but not on the full shot...

Fair point, keep in mind these are visuals to help us rely the message...make sense?

I believe Mr. Mo Norman and Mr. Eric Jungen might disagree with you. Thoughts?

Mo Norman is a legend, no question. Our only ask is you give our ideas a try and determine for yourself.
