The REAL reason YOUR golf DOESN'T get better

[@danielcohen3159]

It really is amazing how difficult it can be for a lot of us to really exaggerate things in the golf swing. I tried something similar, a drill from a Clay Ballard video, hitting little driver shots, like 3/4 swings, but trying to alternate hitting a huge cut and then a big hook, then back to the slice, and so on. The first 10 shots or so had barely any curve at all! But once I started REALLY exaggerating the path and face, I could get it. The benefit is that when I went back to what I was trying to do (hit from the inside, hit up, little draw) the strike was much better and easier. I felt like I had so much more control over everything. I need to remember your video next range session. Thanks, Ali!

I've always struggled with getting consistent feel and tempo in my swing. The more I struggle the more stiff and quick I get in the downswing which of course changes the low point and strike from one shot to the next. I'm going to take your advice and exaggerate a slow swing with a loose grip and see if I can't groove a consistent low point. Thanks!

I’m the same as you , under plane stuck and flick on bad days , I’m a 3 handicap, on my day brilliant , so I’m always keeping check of it , with that swinging left feeling , constantly have to keep on top of it

[@Cornish_Maid]

My bad shot is a pull draw, always happens when I end up with a out-in club path, as long as I hit in-out I generally hit a 1-5 yard draw. Am working hard on swing path.

My teacher/playing partner Dan(plays off +2 or 3)has always preached Feel vs Real. Great content, i look forward to more of this!!

[@DocThatch]

Thanks Ali. I struggle with a right to left ball flight. So this is exactly what I need to work on. Thanks for the great videos.

[@paulfarns1]

Hi Ali. Could you do a similar video with Driver please? I am currently hitting push cuts even with what feels a relatively centre strike. Not a destructive shot but not a ball flight I want to see. I remember you saying in a previous video how when the ball position moves towards the lead heel the club path works more left and I guess if the face is then open to that path you would see a left to right shape. Any tips on neutralising the path whilst maintaining a positive attack angle would be appreciated. Bends in the downswing/changing ball position etc?

[@paulcarr2869]

I struggle with distance I’m not very flexible which I’m trying to work on have you any ideas. Thanks for the videos

[@yadthink]

Thx for all the videos, Ali, I get a lot out of them! I do wonder if demonstrating different swings messes up your game on the course. My brother gave lessons for several years and said they helped his students but messed up his game. :)

[@KevinNaegele]

I can never get the feel of striking the ball first then ground. I either top the ball or scope it, and when I really focus on it I hit the ground before the ball…

[@jeremygillette6843]

My bad shot is hitting behind the ball with my irons. Can hit the driver well and wedges are great. Used to be I couldn't hit the driver and did well with the irons. Now it's the exact opposite.

[@stevegeorge7388]

My bad shot is also a pull draw or pull hook. I tend to have a slightly closed club face and the bad shot is when I am outside in. This is only for my irons, I swing inside out with my woods without any effort. I recently purchased a Mevo+ with the Pro Package so now I can measure this, just need to fix it.

[@jimwarren7158]

I struggle with a push slice. Everything you think would be fine if only the club face was closed instead of open. I can easily turn a push slice into a pull hook. Thanks Ali.

[@CorekBleedingHollow]

I'm only 28 and my iron and wedge distances really suck. Then whenever I hit it long like im supposed to, it over draws left. I've been struggling with overextending and standing up out of posture all my years of playing the game. What really sucks is that I feel like I am rotating just fine, but th camera tells me otherwise every damn time.

[@amalfi460]

I need help hitting off a wet fairway. I must be hitting down too much and behind as I always take a deep cut of sod out and hit way short of the green……please help me

[@rodolfoparks2934]

Having problem with my Body alignment and club path

[@karihall9542]

Help!! I have a wicked slice all the sudden. I have a strong grip but quite a right spin too

[@stevelesgold2735]

I hit the shot I want to more than half the time, but that's not enough of the time. I'd like to hit my normal slight draw at least 90-95% of the time or better. When I don't hit my shot, there's no real pattern to my misses. If there was, I'd know what to exaggerate. I'm sure my lack of consistency is a very common problem. How can I tackle that?

[@jasonmourad9710]

That’s all fine. I have a tendency to draw/hook the ball. When I try to exaggerate I I’d be too reserved and the ball goes straight left. It’s the fear of a massive slice/shank

[@thomasmccauley9607]

My problem swing isa pulled draw.

[@steveshawks115]

Not only is it not getting better it’s getting worse. I’ve played to 12 over and the last three games I duff everything. Any advise for that would be appreciated.

[@waynebrown4062]

I still need to get my low point correct.

[@davidsimmons7769]

My miss with irons is usually straight left, but not a hook , could this be ball position?

[@edanzore]

Over the top

[@EREIAMJH61]

I used to have a slice, but now my bad shot is a push.

[@pauldad1]

Please can I swap your worst shots for my best ones?

[@FlankerJackChannel]

Your worst shot is better than my best shot I guarantee it. Do I just have to admit I'll never be better and going to be that guy that just spends money wasting my time?

[@plitt6666]

Bad shot...big slice with driver and pull with irons. Help!?!
