[@dementus420]

This is probably the best explanation of what causes that chicken wing in a lot of golfers.

[@bryang949]

This lady is brilliant!!! She is a natural teacher

thanks Bryan

[@billneier1687]

You are an excellent instructor Natalie. Thank you.

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Thanks you for the comment and for watching - hope i can help you to improve and enjoy your game 👍🏻

[@jfc345]

I watch many golf videos on yt, but you are my favourite instructor! Thank you so much for your work. I wish you the best

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

thank you so much 👍

[@GS44691]

Just taken up golf and watched hundreds of videos here on YT. Thankfully, I've now found your channel Natalie and quite frankly it is, for me, by far the best. Your ability to explain, what seems to the beginner, the complex body mechanics of the swing in an easily digestible way is a God send. Thanks and keep up the fantast work

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

thank you and welcome to the channel 👍

[@mikejarrett6144]

Excellent explanation, thanks Natalie ! BTW we've missed you !!

[@kevinmurphy8644]

A really good explanation - so rare on utube - thanks sooo much

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Thanks Kevin 👍

[@taffyddu]

Excellent Natalie. Great, clear explanation of what goes wrong and great, simple drills to help sort it out. Thanks.

[@rapidcabin]

Sincere thank you to Natalie for making this video. I have dealt with the left arm chicken wing for years thinking it was a product of my unwillingness to extend my arms due to overall body aches and pains. After watching I tried this with my camera rolling. Absolute positive difference! Perfect explanation Natalie!

[@nicholas1460]

Great tips, I will practice them.

[@pjshf]

Brilliant explanation Natalie!

What an excellent video

[@carmelbolton7615]

Thank You for Tips. I Have Bad Rotation. Will Work on This. 👏🙋‍♀️🇮🇪. Take Care.

[@thomasfraser9072]

Carmel Bolton focus on simple rotating your lead thigh inward for the backswing and lead thigh rotating outward for the downswing; the rest of the body will rotate in sequence with the lead thigh. On the downswing do not push with your trail foot as the lead thigh tuning/rotating outward will automatically provide the initial torque in your swing as it straighten your lead leg and pick up your trail foot at the finish of your swing. It is that easy.

[@nickfewings28]

Great drills and tips again Natalie. Will be out having a go this week.

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

thanks nick

[@robertstirland7577]

Excellent video very well explained.cheers

[@steveperry1344]

i like your ideas and concept. it's a new way for me to look at the swing action, thnx.

[@mikejarrett6144]

Best explanation I've ever seen of this problem. Explains a lot. My problem is a fused right ankle which cannot flex in the downswing !

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

cant help with that one sorry mike 😊

[@Mirage-r6t]

Ingenious.

[@jbuburuz]

Thank you. This best description I have ever seen on chicken wing. I can't wait to try this. I like the orange hoop analogy. I get so frustrated with my chicken wing and break down at impact.

[@wendybrookes1878]

Great tips, will go out today and try to ingrain it into my brain and body.

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi Wendy getting used to the feeling is the key

[@wendybrookes1878]

SMASH FACTOR GOLF COACHING it did help today but it will take more practice of course. Still, I have a plan!

[@thomasfraser9072]

Hi Natalie. Rotating my lead thigh inward for the backswing and outward for the downswing is extremely easy and accurate swing that gets the entire body rotating as well as it providing the necessary initial torque in our swing. Also on the downswing I never push off with my trail foot as it would change my swing path. The trail foot will naturally stands up at the end of my swing as my lead leg straightens out Cheers

[@lovetogolf4184]

Great Lesson Natalie, my problem for sure..I get nervous when I hit solid drives and have a clear shot 150 to the green and get a 7, on a par 4..Practice makes progress tho..WIll keep you posted on my results..Like tomorrow 8:36 tee time..Black River Lower Michigan. Have a blessed day!!

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

have a good round, let me know how you get on ⛳️

[@lovetogolf4184]

I was doing good got a birdie on a Par 5 but blew up a par 3, sloping green!! and got a 7 on a par 4..So 45 and 49..2nd time out this year..I started to use alota body coil on drives and was rippin it!! I usually use upper body movement for some stupid reason,,Back hurts then. I need to extend on iron shots, I was reaching the par 4'S in 2, so that was refreshing then 3 putted all of them except one..I have some video can i send them to you?

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

that sounds really positive but you need to get those 3 putts under control to drop that score. You can certainly send me some videos. if you follow this link smashfactor.lessoncaddy.com/packages

[@rayingram6012]

Thanks Natalie...this is my biggest problem..lack of rotation...yes sometimes I catch it ok but my distances are terrible/short..I see how the rotation causes more power now..gonna try it at the range tomorrow...thanks for the vid

[@markfitzpatrick360]

I don’t want comment of the week or to be pinned, All I want to say is to reiterate what many ppl said and that is this is the best explanation I have seen in YT regarding these issues which I and many golfers suffer with. Outstanding work and how Rick Shiels has 1 million Subs and you don’t is beyond me! Thankyou

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi Mark many thanks for your kind comments I really appreciate it. Its also a mystery to me on the subscriber front, as we have so much positive feedback from viewers. We will just keep plugging away ⛳

[@garywoodhouse5698]

Hi Natalie, really great explanation of the chicken wing problem. I've lost power and consistency of strike for years because of this. I find it so difficult to start the backswing with the body first. Will try these drills and book a lesson with you next time I'm "up north" and lockdowns over. Thanks Natalie

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

hi Gary thanks for your message 👍⛳️

[@alexdemner9526]

I watched this video for the first time yesterday. So I tried it on the golf course today. Wow . I hit a couple of irons so sweet today. It felt soooo good . Unfortunately too well as they went through the green. Great explanation of the rotation. Thank you Does this work with driver? Just different ball position

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

hi yes it does you just won’t get your hands so far forward at impact with the ball being further forward

[@arthurpreston5947]

Hi Nat, another good vid , l am a keen golfer but 4 years ago l fell 25 ft and broke my femur in two places also l had a torn rotator cuff to my right shoulder all has been fixed now ...but my golf has gone downhill since then becouse l can't create a full body rotation l also have a very short back swing all due to the accident...my handicap before the accident was 9.5 it is now 14 .3 ..l am really having problems hitting my irons is there any tips you could give me to lmprove my iron play ...l am also a senior golfer any advice would be greatly appreciated ...kind regards Arthur

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi Arthur thanks for your message. You are a lucky chap that was a nasty accident you had. What issue in particular are you having with your irons? If you let me know I will do my best to help

[@arthurpreston5947]

Hi Nat, thanks for your reply......having problems transferring my weight also it feels like l am only getting half of a swing doesn't feel like l am taking the club to the top l think becouse l am not turning my body towards the target the club head is not hitting the sweet spot ....perhaps when the lockdown is over l could come to you for a couple of lessons as l am not far from you l live on the Wirral regards Arthur

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi Arthur yes come over when you can that would be great. I need to see you really to check your movements, it’s difficult to give advice without seeing for myself.

[@jmiller123]

Great video. One suggestion to all coaches out there. I don't understand why most coaches focus on the "No, no,no" instead of the "This is the way you need to do it". Most of the video is about how not to do things. Thank you for the video

[@bh5606]

What sea is behind you? Good coaching.

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi Ben thank you. Its the Irish Sea, we are on the north wales coast 👍

[@crayh5o]

My left elbow peeks out from my side before the club from the down the line view. Would these drills help?

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

are you talking about on the follow through ?

[@crayh5o]

Yes, on the follow through.

[@hughcapetien]

Natalie, I am having a little problem with my irons hitting turf before ball contact instead of taking turf after the ball is struck. Your tips seem to identify my problem - not moving my hips fast enough through the down swing. Is that the cure? Thanks, James

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi James I don’t think you are pressuring into your left side and rotating towards the target fast enough. it sounds like your accelerating the club and your upper body too early on the downswing and that your a bit out of sequence. Hope that helps. if you would like me to have a look at your swing you can always have an online lesson with me where I would be able to analyse your swing more accurately, offer you simple solutions and provide you with support to make the changes 👍

[@niguel4438]

We’ve never met so how come you know my swing so well? Spooky! Great demo of what’s going on in the swing. Thanks. Ps. Are you at Princes GC?

[@SMASHFACTORGOLFCOACHING]

Hi and thank you. the video was filmed at Rhyl golf club on the north wales coast
