“QUIT FIRING the BODY!” LONG Drives Just Happen when you do this!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

*Turn through the exact way you should not what the pros are doing! This it the most efficient way for your to swing*

[@greenf7postlake]

I’m 55 and hitting my drives farther and straighter than ever before attributed to your videos Alex! Totally revamped my swing starting with Hank Haney’s anti-slice program, and refined by watching every AlexElliott video. 245yd average up til 53 yrs old; now averaging 285 yrs. THANK YOU Alex

Yep! I’m 66 years old and used to swing with just my body. I fought a massive slice for a bout a year and a half. I saw one of your videos awhile back, that talked about using less body and more arms. Started doing that and my slice is mostly gone. Drives are longer and more consistent. Oh it shows up every now and then, but now I know right away how to fix it! When I swung with just my body I tired out quickly, and ached after playing for two or three days.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

You have to start implementing more and more of this Joe!!!

[@divebobber]

Also, try rotating your lead wrist so that your back hand faces to the rear. If I do that too much it hooks. A little and the slice goes away. But also swing with a loose grip.

Alex, another fantastic video. As a 66 year old with lots of aches and pains, I thought my game was never going to improve. I followed these recommendations and regained accuracy and distance. It really helped eliminate my combination of over-the-top, out to in swing, combined with closing down my club face. Today was a lot more down the middle and sticking my irons. Now, if I can only master distance control with the putter...

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you Bruce!!!

The best tip anyone can get for hitting the ball further, good strikes, compress, and straight is dropping the arms into the slot. Complete game changer. And the swing looks and feels effortless. Make a good backswing, drop those arms and shift that weight. That's the swing. Get the club back to where it was at address.

Love the content Alex, I've been struggling with lost distance this season. I'm going to try this. Thank-you for thinking of us ageing players.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

You got this! I hope it helps you improve!!!

[@MrPerrisC]

Thanks Alex! btw, a while back you answered a request from me that you'd get a video demonstrating how to load driver shaft, I don't think you got to that yet? if so can you post a link for me? Sometimes I can load the shaft, getting that whip but can't doing it consistently, thanks.

Hey,great video as always. 2 things i would like to see a video on tho is when people say I'm going to flight this driver/wedge down. How is this done? And also when players say I'm going to hit it hard/soft. Again what is ment here . Cheers

[@jjflash1645]

Great tip, now all I have to do is everything working in sequence.

[@chadthompson3078]

Thx for another great tip.

[@The-OC]

This is so spot on, feeling like the arms whip the club head through definitely gives more speed and a great deal more distance. 💪🏼🚀

I hope it helps you!!’

[@MorGuitarz]

GREAT stuff! I'll be giving it a go this weekend! Awesome lesson and thanks!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Great to hear it!!!

[@berylwright3301]

wow so vgoof😅

[@jeffrickle]

awesome stuff!

[@73henny]

What should be the first feeling to start the downswing? Dropping arms or moving weight to lead side?

[@martindavies8909]

When I try to move my arms faster than my body I tend to get the dreaded over the top swing that gives me a slice! So how do I avoid that and get what you recommend?

[@ronmullard5718]

I've been hitting the ball on the range quite well...played 18 yesterday ...I was abysmal nothing like the range....(it was the first 18 for a while due to a number of medical issues I think I played better when I first started)

[@St.Smitty]

Hang in there man! Good on ya for getting out and being active after injuries

[@outoutmtb1949]

join the club i'm exactly the same started again few months ago got steadily worse doing my head in

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Keep working on the fundamentals! Keep it simple and play the shot on the course 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@ronmullard5718]

@@St.Smitty 👍

[@nigelfsu]

So true but used my body for so long i felt if u rotated that left hand over and thumb up id miss the ball or hook it. But the club moves so fast it squares up perfectly. Way less effort wnd way longer drives

[@AlexElliottGolf]

I feel this is a great point! Have you checked your grip?
