Ok, I’ve taken this to the course for 54 holes now and I cannot believe how well I’m hitting it. I’m almost hitting too far now I have to manage my game to avoid hazards that weren’t reachable a few weeks ago. The strike is absolutely astonishing. Thanks Steve. I’ve no idea how it works or what I’m doing but it really does.

Such a great video that really highlights what it means to be “external” over the ball and not “internal”. This is something I first saw in Adam Young’s book and George Gankas spoke about this as well. Internal golfers are ones that are thinking about some physical cue (left wrist flat, drop the right elbow on down swing, move the trail hip back etc etc etc). There is nothing wrong with that and it works for many golfers (myself included) until it doesn’t work and you need another cue. Golfers that are external are thinking about something more abstract over the ball like the ball flight, or swing path or swing feel. It’s a very different feeling when you swing as opposed to the internal golfer. I’ve started doing this and I don’t think I’ve ever hit the ball better. I just am focusing on the path/feel/rhythm of my swing and the physical cues just seem to fall into place (rotation, posture, balance etc). I believe there is a third mindset after internal and external where your mind is completely blank and clear of any thoughts or feels and it’s purely reactionary. Similar to “the zone” that’s been referenced to an athletes state of mind in some outstanding athletic performances.

So do you have any other video's showing this method or is that basically all you need for this. I have been surprised how great my ball striking has improved. Been playing for years and was always discouraged from a flatter swing which is something that is natural for me. It really is amazing to just follow the club shaft down the outward stick. I wanted to thank you for this bit of info., given how much is out there.

Good stuff, Steve. The key, I have discovered, is to avoid the "one piece takeaway" introduced by Snead. Rotate the left forearm, as you are doing, keeps the club on plane as long as you don't overswing. Another good example is Guido Migliozzi though he plays a slight fade. The difference is only slight.

After watching this video I signed up to the Eurekagolfswing site and practiced the techniques on a simulator for 3 hours. I've jumped up 1 club in distance and changed my club path from 'out to in' to 'on plane' or 'in to out'. I've been trying to figure out how to stop my left arm breaking and over swinging for years using all kinds of aids and techniques, without avail. I feel with this swing i'm getting much closer, it's also easier on the back.

Hi Steve, I've been struggling with striking irons recently, feel like I struggle to clear hips on downswing, so after some reading online I decided to open stance with feet but square up hips and shoulders to target, clubface with shaft lean aimed slightly to the right of target, swung the club back on the inside and can confirm I've not hit a ball that pure or accurate in my life. Took it onto the course and played about 8 holes using this setup, consistent draw ball shape. No early extension, no heavy shots, no thins. Can I ask with the eurika swing do you aim the clubface right of target as well? Cheers
