I cannot believe it was that easy. I was out in the yard hitting some wiffle balls just practicing getting my wrists in the proper position for the down swing and all of a sudden, my ball contact was incredible, and my divots were 3-4 inches in front of the ball. This has been something I struggled with for 30 years. I cannot wait to get out to the range and start hitting balls. THANK YOU.

Was eager to try this at the range today because I’ve been hitting a weak fade with all of my clubs the last month or so. I actually thought I was losing distance due to my age. This truly did help with contact and hence distance. I was hitting a pulled draw shot early which I’ve been known to do. Yet, I was able to straighten out. I also didn’t get near as tired. I wanted to keep hitting balls. Gonna rush to range again tomorrow and next few days in preparation for a round with some coworkers next week. I’m very excited. I’ve tried other tips from videos to shallow out the club but something about this teaching related to me. Thx for the teaching

This is EXACTLY what I've been working on with my swing. Last time out I hit my irons better for 18 holes than I ever have. Driver, however, was terrible but I think that was (ironically) from trying to hit it too hard and losing my angles. Thanks for reinforcing my thoughts.

This is a good topic. I was just fittes for irons and with a 7 iron, i have a 100-102 mph swing speed with very little effort. However, ball striking is inconsistent. So this gives me something to work on in terms of slowing the speed to gain control.

Maybe you can shed some light on this for me: according to indoor driving range, similar to the set up you have there, I hit the ball 20 yards farther than I ever have on a golf course? For example, I hit a 5-iron on average 185 yards carry, 200 yards total roll on an indoor range (I'm 63 years old, 9 handicap). On an actual golf course, I have never hit a 5 iron more than 180 yards to include roll out. Another example, a few years ago I was fitted for irons on an indoor machine. The result was a stiff (S300) dynamic gold shaft because I hit it farther (10 yards) than any other shaft tested. I tested the full gamut of shafts from L, A, R and S flexes, steel and graphite. I had clubs built with that shaft and lost 10 yards on the actual golf course versus my old regular flex shafts.......Do these machines lie to us??????

Wonderfully explained, I'm the kinda guy that plays Golf Well but Honestly things like Smash Factor , Side spin and other things are foreign to me. I wanna hit a draw I do it, I wanna hit a fade I do it, Knock down ??? You get it. I can hit every shot in the book but I want to know some of the Science behind it for when I get in that so called " Funk ". Because when that happens I gotta bust 1,000 balls to get out of it. Would be nice to know what's wrong so I could fix it sooner rather than have to take 3 Dozen Tylenol and a bottle of Scotch to Numb the pain of 1,000 ball at the range. You got yourself a subscriber.

As part of my swing I forward press with my hands as the first move in my swing, then make sure on my take away I do NOT "roll" the hands. That little forward press at the beginning solved the exact issue I had with the ole hosel rocket/cupped wrist miss hits. And I hit it SO much cleaner and straighter. I am sure it won't work for everyone, but for me that forward press solved SO many issues with my irons and my driver.

When launching at 14°, you’re 2° stronger than the tour average and closer to the tour average for a 6i. All great for ball speed and more distance but you sacrifice your stopping ability on the green. You’re getting over 10 yards of rollout with a 7i which is not going to do anyone, any good. Only way this works is if you’re already a high speed/high spin player so that you still have the stopping lower on the green. With a 108 CS on a 7i and 8k backspin, I can afford to take spin off but most recreational golfers can’t If you’re already a guy who is closer to the average joe, you’re going to be rolling off the back of the green.

In all fairness to Ali his message is to the wider world and not necessarily directed toward the scratch or better than scratch golfer. But, even here, it reinforces just how valuable it is to swing within yourself and to compress the ball. Don´t get caught up and distraced by the 10 yds of rollout... remember these were casually hit shots as he talked his way through and where the club face was often slightly closed. I think he´s done an excellent job on getting the concept across.

@@briantierney4703 I think we both agree that a solid, controlled swing will play better than an out of control faster swing. However, what you said reinforces why the average golfer shouldn’t want to take this approach to gain more distance with their irons. Less loft equals less height and less spin, two things most golfers already don’t have enough of on approach shots. He’s a teaching professional so the average golfer who attempts this is going to get more rollout off the back side of the green. Stopping power on the greens is important. Hopefully our differing views can help bring to light the pros and cons for those attempting or considering this. Cheers! 🥂

Try hitting your clubs 3/4 of the distance you normally do but still with a full swing. THAT will smooth your swing & you'll make good contact from the center of the face more often. You'll be surprised by the tempo it gives you & even better distance just by hitting the center of the face. Try it for a whole bucket of practice balls & give it a chance rather than quitting after a few bad shots. It's a little harder than it sounds. Let the club swing rather than pulling it down from the top. IMO, the 1 thing that's rarely mentioned by teachers but 1 of the most important factors in the swing is grip pressure. For speed in the swing, you can't have tension in your hands, wrists & arms which doesn't allow the full weight of the club to go thru the ball thus reducing speed. They call it a golf "swing" for a reason. Relax & let the club swing freely rather than trying to control it.

Paul Wilson Golf is who I learned this from. Turn off your arms and focus on making your back knee connecting to your front knee on the downswing. When you try to really kill the ball, your wrists lock up and your swing much more with your arms, causing you to come over the top and you'll get a pull hook, pull fade or a slice. Really focus on your back knee touching your front knee on the downswing and follow through. Disconnect your brain from your arms and you'll have a smooth but fast swing with minimal effort and much more consistent contact with the ball.

The main problem US armatures make - is trying to square the club head back to it's starting position, so why change direction/s of the hands throughout the swing? Why not just keep the back of the logo on ones glove (right handed golfers) pointing towards the ground through out the whole swing (which I will try out tomorrow) Surely with less moving parts of the bodies limbs will help to get the club head to ball square and easier! I look forward to trying this out and maybe some feed back from others if they have tried out my theory? Thanks Ali!

I'm no pro but I had the same issue at first. I've found that you can compensate for the hard left wrist roll simply by taking a stronger grip on the club with your left hand (meaning palm facing more toward the ground). You can then roll your wrist less to where it's more comfortable for you and your club face will remain aligned with your spine angle if done properly. Also, key point you mentioned is keeping the club in your fingers! Hope this helps. Cheers.

I would say your 6’-2” which will add more distance because of your arch of the club. You hit the sweet spot every time most of us don’t. When you slow your club speed you have to be careful not to decelerate to much or you will chunk the ball. That being said, I loved your video!

Slowing everything down helps a ton.. backswing mostly, I’m seeing much more consistently straight shots. I had to readjust club selection for irons a bit.. I was muscling my PW to 150-165.. but with inconsistent results. Save your back.. arms.. and strokes.. slow down!

My swing speed is at or about 85 and my 7 iron has never come close to going 180 yards. If I could do that I'd not need fairway metals.

Great video! I am struggling with that same thing. I’m a fairly consistent ball striker but I’ve lost about a full club of distance in my irons since last year. Ball flight went from penetrating mid height to to high and soft. I swing a 34* 7 iron comfortably 86-88 mph but only hitting it about 160. Curious what was your spin, height and decent angle was on some of those 180 yd + 7 irons?

Was thinking the exact same thing irons aren't for distance but accuracy and control. Key is the spin rate.

"Only" 160. If you can carry that distance every time consistently, then you're doing very well! Need to go 170 or 180? Use a 6 iron :)

@@thewelsho Exactly and I had been clubbing up before I figured out the distance loss. The issue was the distance loss was only with my irons and caused about a 30 yd gap between my longest iron (4) and my 21* hybrid. A quick checkup from my local pro showed me that my grip had gotten a weak and was causing me to leave the face open on the downswing and flip to square it at impact. A little tweak to my grip kept my face square to slightly closed during my swing and reduced dynamic loft at impact 4* - 5* and viola…spin launch and peak height came down and ball speed and distance came back up to where I’m used to seeing it. Crazy how subtle changes can make such a big difference

Exact same. I know that given the speed I achieve I should be hitting much longer. Driver is even worse. 105-110 clubhead speed, 245-255 carry. Seems like it should be 20-30 yards longer. I'm fairly certain this is because I have a pretty solid upper body (I lift a lot) and as such I rely on my muscularity to generate speed/force (not using my hips very efficiently). James, do you lift? I ask because I've seen this pattern with a lot of my gym friends...muscular upper body, look like they can drive 320...but only hitting 260 (because they/we "arm swing").

@@jdstarek I'm working on improving lag too but only 90-95 with driver (220-230 carry). 110 should produce ~270 carry/300 roll out if launch and spin are in the right window. If you're willing to invest time to understand the details and then practice, Larry Cheung has some really interesting content on how the lower body powers the swing. He coaches Matt at TXG so the results are legit.

@@jdstarek I lifted when I was younger, but not too much in last 25 years or so. lol I do have pretty strong 'popeye' forearms though, so maybe that's how I can generate the speed. I do swing mostly hands and arms also. I can occasionally sneak one past 300, but my average carry is the same at 245-255. I've tried bowing my wrist before, and it worked well, except I never kept at it long enough and I went and tried to play it on the course too soon I guess. A couple crazy hooks off the tee, and I resort back to my inefficient, but straight down the pipe swing. I guess I just need to keep at the bowing the wrist, shallowing the club feeling until it feels normal. If only cupping my wrist didn't 'feel so right' haha

Instead of changing your existing swing and delofting your irons, what about simply keeping the swing you've already grooved and take one more club while swinging smoothly?

Great video could you show your swing from behind so people could see how your down swing is on a flatter plane than backswing which allows you to hit the ball from the inside for years I didn't know what that term meant but I do now man I'm hitting the ball great I just can't putt it.

It’s hard to get used to turning the wrists during the backswing. I tried and yes it works but it’s super uncomfortable and eventually went back to my old swing. Too much thought trying to remember to turn the wrists

The problem lies in instructors who misinterpret the formula. Force =Mass x Acceleration. Acceleration and Speed are similar but two entirely different factors. You can create more force with a lower overall club head speed by using acceleration up to and through the ball. Using speed as a force requires higher speed.

It’s not that I want to slow my swing. I’m 66 now and because of injuries my swing has slowed down to a maximum of 80 mph. I’m learning now how to compress the ball and increase my smash factor. My smash factor is up to 1.45 and my distance is 160 with my 7 iron. Thank you
