The Secret to "Effortless" Center Face Contact! | Game-Changing Golf Lesson

[@Golf67]

This was such a good lessen. Ryan’s approach to correcting a slice is simple and effective. Hope it helps you Mike.

[@B.L.K.S_808]

Watching this has been a huge eye-opener for me. I can't wait to get out to the range and put some things to work. 🤙🏾

[@tanimator87]

This legit fixed my slice in one session I am blown away. Subscribed and followed Ryan, super impressed.

[@timfirnkes4811]

This was one of the best lessons I have ever had and I wasn't even there. :) What a great video! Thank you for the great content. Keep up the great work!

[@johnpeterson-cm2nm]

Gen, wonderful introspective view about your SA experience and how you’re trying to move forward in your-life. Really appreciate your candid explanation, and hope you get ‘good-bounces’ in the future so that you can see how good you can really be! Thanks again!

[@Ready_Golf]

Thumbnail and Title of this video were one the better ones. Very solid video, super helpful for all of us.

[@tonyfrese6903]

100% my issue and I love that he walks you through it in baby steps as well as has different ways to approach those steps if one doesn’t work for your game. Wish he was closer to me lol

[@freeskierandaboarder]

Was just at the range two days ago and had exactly the same thoughts! Felt like I was putting a lot of effort into my drive but was barely cracking 200 carry/ 230 total. Definitely something to work on next time out.

[@Andre-uq6yg]

Not gonna lie, I followed everything this dude said and it worked almost instantly. I have a launch monitor so I followed the numbers to get the feel of what a good swing is. Did that for 2 days straight, no irons, just driver, working to get the appropriate numbers. Went out and played today, and damn I was killing it! Kept the ball in play, pushed it forward around 250 yds😊

[@Golficity]

Let’s go!!!!!!

[@Cspotrun78]

This is the second vid I've seen with Mike getting top tier lessons for these exact issues. He's obviously regressed into the same habbits. No dig on Mike, but just proof of how important it is to follow up swing changes with multiple check ins with your coach. Commit to the changes and the practice required to implement them!

[@Golficity]

Yep! Same one. And you’re so RIGHT! I’m working daily now on my own in studio! - Mike

[@Cspotrun78]

@@Golficity love the channel, and love the content! You're living the dream of most of us! Go ahead... hit that slice! haha :)

[@daniellongoria9622]

So messing around at the range a while back I had the bucket of balls to close to where I was swinging forcing me to to change club path and I had to shallow the club that resulted in a wonderful hit . It mimics what you were doing with the shag bag and I now do it on purpose to remind me of where I need to be .

[@roadtoscratchgolf3481]

Excellent lesson on curing a slice. Ryan is a good teacher. Cheers.

[@richardgatehouse1520]

Great lesson, I’ve been doing exactly the same thing but really struggling to close the face so this definitely helps me out👍

[@peterreynolds1825]

One of the best instructional videos I have ever watched. Well done and thank you. Great job.

[@Ready_Golf]

How appropriate with where my swing is at right now! Thank you for some simple guidance.

[@ryanhagergolf]

Hope it helps!

[@DLudGolf]

I went through this when I got a launch monitor. Noticed my spin was so high and it was the reason I couldn't outdrive my friends and why the right slice was so bad. Worked really hard to get the strike under control at about 90mph swing speed. Then got the path under control, by lifting my hands up the plane more than I ever would have thought in the backswing (put the club right on path though when swinging through). Now starting to bring the speed back up to 100+ and seeing good results with launch and spin conditions. It took weeks of work.

[@colonelcamp]

The biggest thing you said here is that it took weeks of work. Patience is key and that’s what I’ve always lacked. Sucks that as I start to get older (mid 40s), I’m realizing these things that the younger me could have used to destroy golf balls. Oh well. Never too late!

[@DLudGolf]

@@colonelcamp agreed I'll be 37 in a few days and wish I knew then what I know now

[@JG-dr8hx]

what launch monitor are you using?

[@douguhazie404]

Ryan is one of the best in the business, great video!

[@Golficity]

He sure is!

[@robertewanis6627]

Next step would be to add some loft back on the driver to get that spin and launch a tough higher for more distance! I’ll be trying this during my next range session. Great video, simple and effective

[@juasauga80]

Great video. For me what makes it is that it doesn't stop at do this technically do that technically. It's about giving yourself time to ingrain those technical or feel changes. Great vid.

[@brockcoderre6086]

I'm still in my first 20 games or so...haven't seen a whole lot...but this is one of the single most informative swing change videos I've ever seen. Grew up playing baseball and it's definitely been hard to overcome. Thanks for posting this one gentlemen!

[@ryanhagergolf]

Cheers! Appreciate the kind words

[@state1724]

Your first lesson from a random guy you don't know who sucks at golf, trust me you'll get lots 😂, golf is played in rounds(or matches in match play) not games! I made the same mistake and my buddies got a good kick out of it haha

[@colonelcamp]

This is an amazing video. Thx for this guys. That is exactly my problem (I guess for most amateurs). Coming over the top and getting that slice or big fade that just kills distance. For me, the biggest thing that Ryan said was about starting slow. I always try to ingrain a new thing at 100mph and then give up because I don’t see the result I expect. Heading to the range tomorrow to work on this and my goal is to not swing even once at full speed. Like Ryan said, you gotta walk before you run. Thx again!

[@eloyflores8959]

Very methodical and great use of technology…. Great teaching and coaching.

[@KINGSKING777]

Very helpful! My face to path, club to path, and attack angle are very similar to Mikes before corrected.

[@daveschreiber9587]

Great video. As someone who just purchased a launch monitor to try to learn to fix my slice, I would love to see more videos that combine instruction with the launch monitor data.

[@matthewhodge1137]

WoW definitely taking that information into my next practise session. I have the same problem. I have a fast swing speed and ball speed but I do not see the numbers I should. For example my numbers are 112-115 club speed and 158-167 ball and carry is usually 240-260 max with 11-12 deg launch and 2500 spin. I am a big slicer most of the time. I learnt a lot in this video that’s for sure.

[@BirdieBank]

Great job. Can't wait to see the next on the course videos and (hopefully!) see that same swing in action.

[@matts3979]

Excellent! The slow swing and it going around 273 is insane. Next time out I will be definitely giving this a try.

[@kw12784]

That was showing 40 yards of roll. Roll is not consistent, and is certainly seldom that much...pay attention to the carry numbers

[@abrokegolfer]

Great video, everything from start to finish was full of useful information. Thank you

[@P4ddyC4ke]

A lot of good info in this one. I'll be taking this to the range and see what I can do.

[@banditbaker1675]

Great lesson and you did so well to implement the instruction, well done both. Moving forward it will be interesting to see if you can take this driver swing out onto the Course. You might need to get a little more spin and might need to get your driver changed/modified to optimist your NEW swing

[@BWen3]

Hopefully you commit to the change this time, Mike. Embrace the suck and improve. Lol you’ve had this lesson on the channel like 5x now haha😅 It’s so funny how Mike couldn’t wait to get back full speed. I see why he never quite sticks with changes. Patience, my friend.

[@TTau_24]

Right Mike reminds me of BBG channel, he just can’t wait to hit the ball instead of just listen and take the information in. They always want to hit something. It’s annoying. You can tell he has no patience. SMH nevertheless, good lesson by the instructor

[@jmart5011]

Absolutely amazing video! This video hit to close to home unfortunately ha Thank you for sharing

[@peterandresen328]

[@canadiancow]

Ive been working on this with my coach. My CHS is stupid though. My 5 iron is 108-110, my goal is long drive eventually. I'm 32 and have been playing for 3 years. Gotta get that delivery down and quality of strike.

[@mccorklehometeam]

Great lesson!

[@dougfolk1276]

Great lesson and video! Thanks

[@lukebarber4729]

Can we get another with the irons. He makes the numbers really make sense. Great vid and lesson.

[@RC-ol7eg]

Good lesson for you. Would like to see this next to an actual range to see if the track man swing matches real play.

[@hunter111175]

Love this vid…. Thanks. Do more on this subject

[@mattgude5810]

How cool is Ryan! Great explanation..

[@Golficity]

He’s awesome. Blessed every chance we get to work with him.

[@MarcelinoJrArias]

Great video. The shaft is so whippy

[@jakephelps4766]

Ryan is a cool dude. There are going to be some equipment changes needed in the future if this gets implemented! Wont be able to keep the driver in the air lol

[@wrxjunki]

He gets all these lessons but one thing to take from this. If you don't put the work in the swing won't change. You need to work on it daily to fix your OTT tendencies. In order to work on it you need to learn the mechanics of proper movement.

[@robmatthews4680]

More videos like this one, please...

[@aansari98]

FANTASTIC!!!!

[@svenskgolftelevision6506]

Great video

[@daughertyr22]

So my question is I get your path is going to the right etc.. but are you closing the face with your grip at setup ? Thanks for a great lesson by the way.

[@ycombine1053]

Ryan seems like a really good instructor

[@Golficity]

One of the best

[@paulc3517]

Thank you for this lesson. Please do irons next

[@Golficity]

We have a great one we filmed with Ryan on iron shanks. That video comes out April 10!

[@kennywatkins8305]

Will this drill/change help someone like me who struggles with shanking my irons and wedges too?

[@MW-fr7bx]

Can you do an “effortless club head speed” next? I’d rather be hitting a shorter iron from the woods than a longer one from the woods.

[@joeguglielmo151]

Unfortunately, The MLMPro2 doesn’t show club path,attack angle or face to Path

[@Blaaww1]

You know what’s a crazy realization I just had? When I hit driver at the range, I strike it fairly decent and would be extremely happy if I would hit it like that throughout a whole round. Sadly this isn’t the case. However, I just remember that at the range there is a crate you put the balls in with a hole at the bottom so that it can roll out of in and on to the turf and generally this is somewhere near the rubber tee on the turf Mat which is a few inches apart. I Think sub consciously it fix my swing at the range cuz it prevents me from swinging out to in🤦‍♂️😂. On the course it feels like I’m hitting it exactly the same as I do on the range but low and behold the slice appear and lands in the next fairway. Then the next hole i over correct and pull it left into the tree line. Idk my mind is kinda blown from that never realized until just now.

[@jaymorin7131]

I have terrible club head speed but hit it in the center of the face. Must be an old age thing.

[@marklucey1]

Great video but you never mentioned what you FELT…..to get the club face “closed”. Can you describe what you felt 🙏

[@TheKeinan96]

At min 16:00 where Ryan, normal people over rotates. The light should have came on . Pearls I tell ya pearls.

[@mattfletcher2084]

The problem I have is that when I get the swing path working more inside out...I can't close the club face....it becomes wide open I again I still hit everything out to the right....I just can't figure out a fix for it

[@havenrab]

How does he get that spin so low I hit it pretty straight but but don’t sniff 2k rpm

[@syoung3602]

Get his right thumb to relax over the grip.

[@distortion4507]

Golf is irritating. I used to fire my hips and body too fast causing a slice. Now I’ve slowed it down and it’s causing my body to stall at impact and then get flippy with my hands. Trying to find the happy medium is killing me.

[@iblind121]

Good informational video but Mike has someone telling him this information every few months, still hasn't changed lol

[@kylesmith245]

Now you need more spin because 1500-1600 is way too low. You’re actually losing yards there now lol. 2200-2500 spin and that ball is carrying 260-270+

[@motodiaries8204]

I wish I had your swing speed! I swing closer to 90 mph and get almost the same distance that you were getting. Definitely a real loss of efficiency in your delivery.

[@Golficity]

Right! Working hard on it. Thanks for the note.
