[@AlexElliottGolf]

*This is a game changer! TOTAL game changer!! Bring this into your game right now!*

[@JBlazer88DC4L]

Thanks so much for making it easy to understand and repeat

[@christ8707]

Alex this helped me a lot, now I just need you to help me learn how to aim

[@jeffcrampton1586]

Hi Alex, I like the explanation of the arc and I understand how dropping the trail foot slightly. Do you also shift the knees, hips and shoulders to align with the toes?

[@Gamecocks101]

How about a tip for these new Hybrid 4's. They're so short and I feel as if I'm getting no distance.

[@davidwynjones8660]

Thanks Alex, you’re not advocating Jon Rahm’s driver address position anymore? Please could you clarify? Many thanks Dave J

[@jamgram782]

Your tips above all other KZbinrs have got me eyeing breaking 90 for the first time. Love how they aren’t rambling 15min videos, so concise and useful! Thanks man!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Glad I could help!

[@davec8730]

with a vastly shorter swing (obviously) you can do this with your putter too, just keep the face 90* to the path required, so i don't alter the path and can even stop and check it at the rear point of the backswing. i'm amazed how accurate it is, when i first tried it i single putted the first 2 holes, the second one from 20+ feet.

[@GolfsGingerGenius1]

Slicing at the range today after a few weeks out and just couldn’t figure out why,I’ll be trying this in the week thanks as always 👍🏻

[@jsusna1972]

I did this on the range today and the results were phenomenal. I didn't have to pull my right foot back very far at all. I may have been set up too open all along, so it feels pretty drastic at first, but after seeing the results, I'll keep doing it. If you think about it. the club is travelling in an arc around your body, so by pulling the right foot back slightly, what you're really doing is lining up your feet (as well as your shoulders and hips) along the arc, and not in a straight line. We tend to swing the club along our foot line, so this gets the club path more along the arc. I see so many videos tout this as a drill and not a permanent way of taking a stance. This is my new normal now.

[@redghost3170]

I practice your teachings. Moved down to a mid 90’s golfer, which I’m happy with. Thanks.

[@99silver89]

thanks Alex keeping my drives in play is the diffrence of my cards being low to mid 80,s and mid to high 90,s great tips

[@brandoncondon7050]

I was just at the simulator yesterday and the guy watching told me to drop my back foot like this! Just a little more than you show in the video and I went from hitting slices to almost a draw. Best golf tips on youtube hands down!

[@LetsbeFrank38]

I will be working on this this week. I enjoy all of your drills.

[@derekwhyle1884]

David Leadbetter used to recommend this as an emergency on course slice fix. You’re basically aiming your feet right and hitting straight pulls. Now I am in my 70’s it’s no longer an emergency fix, I play like this permanently. It solves a lot of the hip/ knee/ flexibility issues inflicted by age.

[@bradleydoyle6808]

I will try that, Alex. You have never steered me wrong. Thanks!

[@johnepiscopo6697]

Took this to the course last night without any practice and I must say it was a game changer. With a little bit of polish, I reckon my slice will be eradicated completely. Thanks for the tip! I just need to learn how to use my fairway wood now... looking forward to any videos you have for that

[@garystride5200]

Was driving fine with a strong grip that started to deform my thumb, so gone back to neutral grip and slice is back woods 3 and above when giving some welly 😮😮ive done reverse motorcycle grip, snap hooks, reverse loop drill snap hooks infact I hate golf at the moment 😢😢😢so may as well give this a go

[@RuffTechStudio]

After 6-7 years of no golfing and I was a novice back then. I'll come back tomorrow morning after the range to tell the improvement with those trips.

[@ericehrnsberger8298]

It is crazy how this works. It takes a little bit getting used to, but I was shocked to see the difference. Thanks Alex!

[@edmundgil6008]

Loved these tips! Can’t wait to give them a go! 🍻 Cheers !

[@sap1374]

It’s great that your offer something much more needed to improve our games rather than just watching yt pros playing a round of golf.so much information and explanation in all your clips alex.keep up the great work👏👏

[@stevenklinkhamer9069]

Looks good. Makes sense. Will be implementing these tips. Fully expecting good results.

[@paulinecooke3450]

Great tip re the right foot, I will be trying this during the week on the range first and then the course, thank you.

[@imilston]

Thank you so much! I can now hit my 3 wood and driver straight! Just need to have the confidence to aim the correct way now and not be aiming to adjust for slice

[@reachkevinwang]

This is 100% true.. I pulled my right leg back and immediately I stopped to slice. It has also to do I think with creating more space for your arm on the down swing

[@Mikebull888]

Great tip and well explained cheers

[@paulmccarville8623]

Great video Sir!

[@jeffkennedy4696]

Took this to the course today. Didn't practice before. Driving has always been a real inconsistency in my game for many years. Bang baby! Long and straight all day long. I was actually scaring myself I was so good 👍

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Love that!!!! Mega!!

[@stevebird838]

I keep my trail foot back 2 inches on my iron shots as well and its amazing. But I also have a fast swing and, for reference, hit my PW consistently about 155. Not sure if that matters, but keeping my trail foot back helps me a lot for all clubs.

[@berylwright3301]

these tips really do help me

[@richardgreen4209]

Really helpful tips Alex i finally broke 100 a few weeks back keep up your good work 👏

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Great to hear!

[@JonathonAdam]

Great to see a video on this. I adopted this a few weeks back and have seen amazing results. Ive gone from hitting a fade to hitting a slight draw with this technique and most importantly it’s repeatable.

[@mikenorton7783]

Great advice made simple Cheers Alex

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Glad you liked it!

[@omarmedina2585]

Hey Alex, how do you overcome the mental aspects of the game? Would love to see a video that addresses these because I feel like I affect my game more than my skill set. Thanks!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Good question! I will try and cover in another video for you 🙌🏼

[@AlexElliottGolf]

keep your eyes on the channel I have you covered

[@simoping]

Sweet .. thanks Alex

[@francisflorez2458]

Is this set up just for driving or any club as far as the right foot moving back..

[@AlexElliottGolf]

driver

[@_LemonDropKid_]

Needed this!

[@jjflash1645]

I’m playing tomorrow and will definitely try this. I tired this and it was a disaster. I couldn’t hit a straight shot to save my life. Everything went right. I went back to something you did awhile ago, tee up to the right and driver lined up near to toe; then I stated hitting the fairway. I guess you have to experiment to find out what works best for you. Keep those tips coming.

[@MichaelSeverini]

Great tip! Do your hips and shoulders match the line of your feet when you move the right foot back or do they stay inline with the target? Thank you.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Yeah they matched

[@paulbartlett4221]

Nice one Alex ,💪🙏⛳

[@brodygoalie]

Can you do this set up with your iron shots ? Thanks love your vids!

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Yes you can!

[@daneengebretsen6609]

brillant explanation mate...luv your style...thank you 76-78 here i come!!!

[@leightaylor5569]

Tried this on my course it works need to practice to get same position every time thanks alex

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you

[@williamhermann6635]

I use this when hitting a draw and open my stance when hitting a fade

[@paulahenry2031]

Loved this drill

[@AlexElliottGolf]

thank you that is so good to hear

[@wackyjackyhadacacky]

fantastic tip, change my game

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Great to hear!

[@anthonysittenauer6877]

Do you have any videos of hitting the same club different distances? I’ve been golfing seriously for going on 3 years. I started as a 32 hcp and I’m now down to 20.8. Mainly I feel like I lose a lot of shots off the approach. Chipping is decent and very regularly 1 or 2 putt. The 1 putt double bogeys get old. 😂. My challenge is I’ve gotten good at consistently hitting 255-270 off the tee and It’s been putting me in Situations where I’m 120-135 out on the par 4s. Par 5s I just send my hybrid in and get it close. I struggle with my PW as when I hit the shot that goes I’m 140 or so and I cannot trust to get the spin. I rely on my 52 to get me 120-125. But I’d love to hit a knockdown shot in or flight one in. But it just turns into a top or a shank then next thing I know I’m lying 4 and I’m still 30 yds out.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Great suggestion anthony, I will try and cover this

[@jvelez1998]

Great video Alex. Very clearly explained. Does the same apply for irons? Cheers

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Yes, absolutely

[@emcrossley157]

Love this drill!

[@royclose946]

Well done alex 🏌‍♂️ 👏 👍

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you Roy!!

[@jeffcrampton1586]

Alex, thanks again for another helpful tip. I totally understand the arc mechanics. The question I have as you drop your trail foot back are you also shifting your knees, hips and shoulders to be parallel to your toes?

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Yes, exactly that!!!

[@jeffcrampton1586]

@@AlexElliottGolf That totally makes sense. Thanks for your help.

[@lewistwist]

It’s works !!! 😊 And you get on and tell it like it is 👍

[@AlexElliottGolf]

That's right!

[@shannonsanders5250]

This basically Hogans stance … I have a tough time hitting up on the ball with it off my heel . I tried your tweak … turned my Left a bit more open and my right a bit straighter. I still hit it low but it is straight and better smash factors. I need to keep my weight forward or it goes dead right no slice, I feel like it is easier to sway back with my foot behind me like this . I hit beautiful 2 yard draws with my 3 wood but cant hit a driver consistently , golf is hard sometimes.

[@mistahil]

Would moving the front foot forward accomplish the same?

[@AlexElliottGolf]

yeah

[@chadmace3355]

when I pull indi feel like I am reaching too much.. I'll give this a try...

[@jonathongeorge1084]

Shoulders square to target or slightly, right?

[@westsighed]

Hi Alex ... love your videos, they've helped me take my game closer to breaking 90 from novice ... although I would love you to MERGE your skills and coaching with Golf Sidekick's strategy and approach ... PLEASE can you put together a beginner guide for those new to the game regarding strategy and basic club use?? Many novices are embarrassed to continue the game given the ego involved with other player's and their expectations. It must be hard to visualise even basic shots for beginners as you play the game so well ... maybe show us a CHEAT CODE for beginners to get under 10 or 11 shots per hole? ... might sound silly but it could become your most watched video helping so many novices ... Maybe a half swing half hit driver, followed by a couple bump and run hybrids, then a couple punch short irons, then a couple back foot chip shots, finished off with a realistic 3 putt? Keep up the outstanding coaching ❤

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Thank you so much!! So happy to hear that this will and is helping you

[@kenbrown2808]

I looked at some of my old scorecards, and my numbers are definitely lower this year.

[@brodygoalie]

I would like you to set up with your driver with your back to the target! Funky set up. I tried it and I was hitting a draw with good impact. Why?? Please explain. Thanks

[@maeu59]

In stage 2 you move ball the back, stage 3 you pull your right foot back which changes the arc direction and actually would move the ball position forward, unless you keep the shoulders square to the original target. You mention nothing about the shoulders, can you clarify?

[@AlexElliottGolf]

We don’t want to be leaning too far back with the shoulders 🙌🏼

[@joemiller4137]

Excellent video, but the title of it makes no sense at all - - "right foot arm"?

[@davidreid2301]

Danny Maude does cover this as well, just so you know.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

Nice!

[@billn8555]

It's Ben Hogan's foot stance.

[@CruceEntertainment]

One thing I have learned is there is no 100% controlling your shot. 99% yes. 100% no. There will always be a little bit of randomness in golf. Chaos theory. It’s what makes the game so interesting. Just swing easy, keep the body and balance under control, and you’ll hit a decent shot.

[@dhango1234]

Thank you Alex. Following this among your other tips I broke 90 after years on a Nicklaus course with laser straight drives 🥹🥹

[@scottyk_cdvi5650]

Took 4min to get to the changing of the right foot

[@gailhill5734]

This works really well. Also helps me get a draw (some of the time). However I cant fade to save my life? HELP!

[@jaxgman44]

Right foot arm..... Editing needs to wake up! LOL

[@hicks1066]

Just make it simple, can you do that

[@billy6637]

Isn’t that just closing your stance and club face

[@WarrenVanWyck15]

Please stop saying, "it's like cheating." It isn't. Let's not encourage cheating amongst our golfing community.

[@AlexElliottGolf]

I think your getting the wrong point. It’s that feeling of wow that’s a strike!!

[@corky5928]

I like your stuff but I lose interest before you get the whole thing put together. Larry Rinker is about the only one I've found that doesn't drag these things out. You'd be surprised how many of us actually have a pretty good understanding of laws of flight and golf fundamentals. Try taking a quick and dirty explanation in the first minute and then finish with the long version for the beginners. thx

[@timothyslaughter476]

I'm surprised you'd use a quick band aid type fix like this. Start screwing with stance and aim.....keep screwing with everything else. Nope. Learn to swing a golf club and not hit at a ball. Thank me later.

Isn’t this a pull for better players?
